Our Story
The seed for Rasoi was planted in 1993
Owners Pravesh (‘Bubbles’) & Rahul Randev opened Carriages where their mother, Mrs Randev, would come and cook pakora for the regular customers of the bar. It was said that this was the best pakora this side of Glasgow and that the family should think about opening an Indian restaurant.
Pravesh & Rahul Randev first experimented with Indian cuisine in 1995 with the launch of Delhi Express. This grew from strength to strength and founded a sound reputation for quality and value in the local area all thanks to Mrs Randev and her traditional home cooked dishes. A few years later the brothers acquired the bakery in Millersneuk Shopping precinct with the vision to open a modern Indian restaurant and deli for the people of Lenzie and East Dunbartonshire.
Indian cooking isn’t just about simple curries. Here at Rasoi we hope to show you how bright and vibrant Indian cuisine can be. We believe we have created an outstanding restaurant with a concept which is very different to traditional Indian establishments. We are sure whatever your taste, with the highest quality and freshest ingredients partnered with a talented team, we can create a dish which is perfect for you.
Our Head Chef Gurwinder Singh has travelled across Europe and India, from Delhi to Rajasthan, to Berlin to Dublin and ultimately to Lenzie, and brings a wealth of knowledge and experience. The rest of the chef team have come from hotels across the length of India, each bringing fresh insight into the diversity of Indian cooking.
Sit back, relax and be prepared to embark on a culinary tour of India, and once again a warm welcome to our kitchen, you’re part of the family now.
