Curated for Every Palate
Bold flavours rooted in tradition, reimagined with modern flair. Every dish crafted with locally sourced ingredients.
The Rao's menu covers a lot of ground street food and starters, tandoori grills, classic curries, biryanis, Indo-Chinese wok dishes, freshly baked breads and desserts and every single section is made from scratch in our Dalston kitchen. Vegetarian dishes sit alongside lamb, chicken, prawns and paneer, and nothing on here is an afterthought. The cocktail list runs on the same principle: Indian spices, house syrups, seasonal thinking. If you're after the best curry in Hackney, a proper vegetarian Indian meal in Dalston, or just something genuinely different to eat in East London tonight, you'll find it here. Take your time with it, there's a lot worth ordering.
