The Queen Anne Victorian at 210 Savannah Road in Lewes, DE has stood tall for over 100 years. Built in 1899, Captain W. “Diver” Johnston at the age of 52 collaborated with his business partner (William H. Virden) to build a beautiful new house for him and his wife, Isabella. Records indicate that he paid $400 for the entire lot, one of the most prominent sites in downtown Lewes.Over the next 100 years, the Victorian structure built in the style of Eastlake, an English architect, served as a home for many families, including longtime Lewes Mayor, Otis Smith.The team at Raas is proud to continue the story of the Queen Anne Victorian.

First time visit the place. I loved the food and ambience of the place.
Love that they have halal options – makes its extremely convenient
Tried salmon coconut curry and lamb korma and both were delicious.
I felt the price was on little expensive side – but the quality was top notch

We stopped in for lunch and enjoyed a couple of small plates along with an entrée—everything was outstanding. The food, presentation, and service were the best I’ve experienced in Delaware. After three years of living here, I only wish I had discovered this place sooner. It’s now firmly on my list of favorite restaurants. The Blood Orange Martini was fantastic, and when I casually mentioned it was my birthday, our waitress surprised me with a delicious slice of chocolate cake. Highly recommend the Vegetable Samosa, Spiced Aloo Tuk, Butter Chicken, and Garlic Naan.

Great dining experience! The food was delicious. The atmosphere was inviting and our server, Katie was the absolute best!! She greeted our table with a smile, was incredibly personable and had the patience of a saint!! Katie went above and beyond to make our evening memorable and pleasant. One of the members of our party had strict dietary restrictions and Katie went out of her way to ensure her needs were met. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. THANKS KATIE!!

Eaten there several times. Very pricey but the food is excellent. Last night (new year’s eve) was a planned menu (which we had NOT been told when we made reservations) and, as is normal in those cases, expensive. We’re vegetarian but we were lucky they had 3 entrees we could choose from. They were serving pricey entrees to carnivores so I was extremely disappointed that our vegetable korma was light on the vegetables! It should have been loaded, but instead it was skimpy. I hate sending food back, but I absolutely should have in this case. I’d never go back there for another pre-planned menu.

Came here with a large group and was absolutley delighted with the meal.
To start, We were a group of 13 and they somehow managed to time everything… so kudos there.
We had a variety of apps but the fried cauliflower was divine as was the chat. We would come back here alone for that.
For the dinner our table shared a variety of dishes. We had some saag paneer, cinnamon curry chicken, chicken tiki masala, as well as the lentils dish.
Everything was fantastic… but the saag paneer and curry chicken was an absolutley perfect blend of spices, texture, and taste overall.
We would gladly drive an hour plus to come here and enjoy the meal. Five stars way for us and I don’t give those much.

Solid. Got the chicken tika, lamb karma, chili naan, butter naan, samosas. Would get all again. The drunken mango lassi was also great and took the edge off the spice.

I had the most wonderful experience at Raas! The service was fabulous, attentive and well informed. I loved being able to watch our smiling chefs preparing the food. Each dish was prepared perfectly and had a depth of flavor I had not experienced prior to this. Best Indian/pan Asian food I have ever tasted. Can’t wait to go back!

Excellent start to the weekend with a little bit of spice!
Raas has a very large menu so it is hard to make a decision. In the end, we selected some winners. What an experience. The wait staff is well-trained and very professional. The chef, GG, came to our table and talked through almost every menu selection with regards to spice and allergens. We found out the waiter was on his 5th day but you would never know it. He explained to us that he has been doing this for many years and had been a server in NYC, Vegas, Chicago, etc and that he was a true professional server. It made for one of the better dining experiences that I’ve had in a long time.
Of course, always start with a cocktail.
I went with the Indian spin on a Marguerita with mango, Indian chilis and peppered tequila. Hot!! My wife had the “Indian Winter” which is Vanilla Vodka, Honey Cardamom Simple, Lemon Juice, Angostura bitters, and Star Anise. She loved it (no pic).
Raas offers several different types of naan and I insisted on the chili cheese. Spicy!
For appetizers, we selected Tandoori Prawns and Chicken Seek Kabobs. The shrimp were grilled and delicious but that fresh “slaw” they were served with was outstanding. The chicken kabobs were interesting. It was ground chicken mixed with herbs. The appearance is unusual but after one bite I made the statement, “I could eat a whole bucket of those”.
Dinner was a tougher choice. My wife and I both had numerous entrees that we were debating but in the end we went with Cinnamon Curry Chicken and the Lamb Shank Rogan Josh. What you first notice is the perfect preparation of the rice. It is small grain, light, fluffy, and doesn’t stick. It’s spot on. My wife was very pleased with her dish. Like most Indian food, it has a lot of herbs and spices with the cinnamon at the front. My Lamb Shank originally came out in a copper bucket where the server carefully pulled it out of the bucket to keep the meat intact. It was literally falling off the bone. It was tender and the sauce was outstanding (not spicy). However, there was a saffron pulao on the side that almost melted my face off. Spicy and delicious.
By this time we were stuffed but why not get dessert? They make their own ice cream and we went with Mango, Tamarind, and Saffron. I love tamarind but that flavor was just ok for me. I found the saffron ice cream to be my favorite and it is very smooth and light for a saffron-based dish.
The star of the dessert show was the chocolate mousse. Very complex and very dark, it paired well with our aged port.
One note, we found ourselves loving the music, a blend of lounge covers of songs from bands like Radiohead and the Beatles. One Shazam and we found an artist named Karen Souza. Understand there is a time and place for this type of music but it is definitely late night bourbon background jam material.
