New Rasika Restaurant Coming to West End
WBJ’s Missy Frederick first broke the news on Friday saying Rasika’s:
“Bajaj will occupy 5,600 square foot of space, for a split level restaurant and cafe at 1190 New Hampshire NW.”
and yesterday the Post’s Tom Sietsema reveals a few more details:
The prolific restaurateur, who just signed a lease for a seventh establishment at 1177 22nd St. NW, hopes to fill it with Rasika West End by February 2012.
The major difference between the two: “A bigger kitchen will allow us to experiment” more in the West End, says Bajaj, who expects to find a dedicated chef in Bombay or London.”
We previously judged the original Rasika located at 633 D Street, NW.

I've confronted this too. Its total BS. Next time, call 911 from your car.

I find it really hard to believe this guy also owns Ardeo/Bardeo. One one hand, Rasika is one of the best restaurants in the city. On the other, Ardeo/Bardeo has always been very mediocre when I’ve been there.

Wahoo! Looking forward to the new Rasika West End venture!
From a business standpoint, I think this is a big mistake. It may generate a profit in the short-run, but I think it will lose the red velvet rope appeal and end-up hurting the brand in the long run. What the hell do I know, though?
I was never that impressed with Rasika. I thought it got a lot of unwarranted hype.
Jane, you ignorant slut!
no thanks to overpriced indian food. try experimenting with price! we need more places like sacrificial lamb.
Dan, you pompous ass!
