I like the shrimp noodle soup. Taste of shrimp Soup is medium strong. I also like their cocktail drink. So strong and cold. Curry sauce is good also more on the sweet side. Waitress was very nice and takes us group pictures. Environment is good lighting and clean. We enjoy this restaurant.

More like a 4.5 for me than a 4, as this was a real revelation in terms of finding actual Malaysian/Singaporean restaurants I enjoy in the city. I will say outright this place has some excellent satay, curry puffs and hokkien prawn mee. The flavors are absolutely solid and bursting. The curry laksa and the kankung belecan were super awesome and the latter was pretty spicy as well (which I don't mind, though it was hard to make it edible for the kids). My only real disappointment was the hainan chicken rice which was just okay but not as good as some that I've tried elsewhere such as Taste Good in Elmhurst (which is still the gold standard for me re: Malay/Sgp food). But if we're talking about pound for pound great flavor and food - this is absolutely perfectly great for anyone looking to indulge big time. It's also worth pointing out the Cendol ice was also good. Not 100% authentic but still a pretty decent clone of what I used to enjoy in the hawker centers of Singapore. The service here was super friendly and excellent. I'd absolutely come back here any time.

Rasa is an underrated gem in the West Village that I've been coming to for years, ever since discovering it during my grad school days. This place feels like a well-kept secret, as I rarely need a reservation and can usually walk right in and get a table. The servers are always friendly and attentive, making you feel welcome from the moment you arrive. The food is consistently delicious, with authentic Malaysian flavors that hit the spot every time. Plus, the ambience is super chill, perfect for a relaxed and enjoyable dining experience. It's a must-visit for anyone looking for real Malay food in the city.

The service was fast and courteous. Our server was from Indonesia while the owner and cook was from Malaysia. The food was very good and authentic. I would definitely recommend it. Although a bit pricy at closer to $30 per person. We tried their Nasi Kerabu with Fried Chicken and their Penang Hokkien Mee soup. The portions were large and very filling. We also had their Malaysian Teh Tarik. The restaurant itself is not very big but well decorated and clean. So far this is one of the better Malaysian restaurants in Manhattan. Would definitely return to try some of their other dishes.

Rasa was amazing! It's my third time here and the food always impresses. Great location, ambience is great and the service is very helpful. The food is full of flavor and it's nice to try to a new Asian cuisine besides the usuals. This is a great way to try halal Malaysian food in New York, and the portions felt huge!

The beauty of New York is getting to try food from every country out there. Malaysian good hitting the spot at Rasa NYC. Please get the Rendang beef if you enjoy meat-based dishes! Service is also great and it wasn't too crowded of a spot on a weekday evening. Their chicken noodles were ok - nothing too special so I'd skip it personally.
