Reviews
Food was really yummy and decent proportion.
We ordered vegetarian items: Dal Makhani, Chole Bhature, Paneer Sizzler, Vada Pav, Paneer Tilka masala, Palak Papdi Chaat and bread assortment.
Chole Bhature was the star dish for us.
Palak Papdi chaat was the only dish that wasn’t wow.
Everything else was really delicious. In the end, you get yummy saunf and freshener varieties to taste too!
We started with the Palak Patta Chaat and Gobi Manchurian — both were perfectly balanced and full of flavor. The Amritsari Fish Pakora was crispy and well-seasoned, and the veg and non-veg grill platters were a great way to try a variety of items at once. For mains, the Paneer Lababdar, Malai Kofta, and Chicken Tikka Masala were rich, comforting, and paired beautifully with the onion kulcha and garlic naan. The Chicken Biryani was aromatic and cooked just right.
Desserts were the perfect ending — Moong Dal Halwa, Rabdi, and Gulab Jamun were all delicious, and the mukhwas was a nice touch after the meal. The Raunak special mango shake was also really refreshing.
The ambiance is clean and inviting, the service was attentive, and the location is easy to get to. Overall, Raunak is a great spot for family dinners, celebrations, or even catering
For those that say service is slow, you have to give them some grace. They are a fairly new restaurant with a lot of business. It’s hard to wait on so many tables, get the food, and take care of door dashers.
I have 2 areas of improvement. It would make the experience much better if they had heaters on. There are many glass panes which all the cold in the building. The 2nd is to increase the music volume. Because of the dome too, conversations are amplified. Music is importance for ambiance.
My first visit to Raunak was truly an incredible experience that instantly places this restaurant on my list of must-revisit spots. From the moment we walked in, we were captivated by the truly elite and amazing ambiance.
The atmosphere is what sets Raunak apart. It’s clear the interior was a labor of love; I was told the owner personally handled the design, and that passion and dedication shine through in every beautiful detail. The space feels refined, elegant, and comfortable—it’s obvious that creating a beautiful dining environment was a priority.
The food matched the setting perfectly. We ordered a selection of classic Indian dishes: the chola bhatura, rich and fluffy; the comforting egg curry; a fragrant pulao; and the perfectly executed street-food staple, golgappe. Every single dish was extremely delicious and authentic. You can taste the care and traditional spices in every bite, proving that Raunak delivers both on presentation and flavor.
Beyond the food and the stunning décor, the servicing was amazing. The staff were genuinely kind, attentive, and ensured we felt welcome throughout the meal. The final touch—a small detail that speaks volumes about the level of thought put into the customer experience—was the mouth freshener tray offered at the end. Featuring a variety of choices, this small act of consideration added another layer of eliteness and sophistication to an already wonderful dinner.
I highly recommend Raunak for anyone looking for authentic Indian cuisine paired with an unparalleled dining atmosphere.
We also had dahi kebab which was also executed pretty well. It was crispy from the outside, very soft on the inside. It had a hint of sweetness, notes of cardamom, some nuts inside and served with onions and chutneys.
We ordered paneer lababdar for the main course given the review tags, but found it to be just okay. I thought there was a lot of heavy cream in it and the paneer could have been softer.
They customized a chilli garlic naan for us, since their menu only had garlic or bullet naan, which was nice of them. Naan was good.
Tamarind and mint chutneys tasted fresh. You could really taste tamarind in the red chutney and I was thinking it would be the perfect base for a tamarind cocktail
The spread at the soft opening was a showcase of North Indian comfort classics done right. From richly spiced curries to perfectly charred tandoori options, each dish tasted like it came straight from a seasoned home kitchen. Special shoutout to the chef and team for producing one after the other crowd-pleasers. Crispy naans were an absolute hit across the board as well.
Raunak kept things simple but efficient for the soft opening. The staff was welcoming, and despite the initial-day rush, service was smooth. The energy in the room was warm and upbeat, helped by friendly interactions and the unmistakable smell of good food.
For a first day, Raunak has done what many restaurants struggle with—win over a full house with great food and hospitality. If this is how they’re starting, I personally can’t wait to see what’s next. Will definitely be reviewing them again sometime later this year!!
First, I really appreciated how bright and well-lit the restaurant is. It creates a welcoming, comfortable atmosphere—much better than dimly lit places where you can barely see your food.
The food was delicious overall. We ordered a variety of dishes—Fish Pakora, Aloo Tikki Chaat, Paneer Biryani, Butter Chicken, Goat Curry, Dal Makhani, and several breads (Tawa Roti, Lachcha Paratha, Tandoori Lachcha Paratha, and Garlic Naan). The breads were absolutely perfect: fresh, fluffy, and cooked just right. We had specifically requested no artificial food coloring in the dishes, and the manager was incredibly cooperative and accommodating—huge thanks for that! Everything tasted authentic and flavorful.
Service throughout the meal was friendly and attentive. Karan was our server, and the whole team made sure we had a great time.
Finished with Moong Dal Halwa, Gajar Halwa, Gulab Jamun, and Masala Chai—perfect way to end the meal.
Highly recommend Raunak for anyone craving quality Indian food in a pleasant setting. We’ll definitely be back!
