Masala Rasoi in Potsdam

Really average food. I was expecting much more from a 4.8 star place but ah well ratings are relative.

We had lunch here today and it was very, very tasty. The staff was very friendly. We'll definitely be back.

I sit down at the window. Few guests. No waiter. At some point I wave to someone through the kitchen window. Someone waves back. But nothing happens. At some point someone comes out of the kitchen. But it has other things to do. At some point I go to his counter, stand in front of him and am still ignored at first. Strange. Finally, lamb curry was well seasoned, meat was a bit tough. Carelessly prepared but cheap lunch offer.

Very tasty food, the platters for two are great! Very good for vegetarians too!

A really recommendable cozy restaurant with a beautiful garden terrace. You are always warmly welcomed by the owner and his service staff. I've eaten almost every dish and have never been disappointed. Extra requests are always accepted and implemented. Whether it's a coffee at lunchtime, a meal in the afternoon or a few cocktails in the evening. It's always cozy and has a nice atmosphere there.

The restaurant is easily accessible by public transport, nice atmosphere, good selection of food and drinks... I would happily recommend it if you want to go in a different direction...(without schnitzel and fries...)

For us, the restaurant was the surprise in Potsdam. Excellent food with very friendly service.

We were in Babelsberg on November 1st, 2024 to visit the horror nights in the film studio. We wanted to go out for something to eat beforehand to start the evening comfortably. There were five of us. It started when we ordered, and the waiter seemed rather annoyed and unfriendly, turned around after two orders and simply left (so he came a total of three times to take our orders) and didn't write anything down. Personally, I wasn't really hungry and ordered a garlic bread, potato sticks and a lentil bread. For snacking, so to speak. When the other four's food was already on the table and they started to eat (everyone came 2 to 3 minutes apart) I asked for my order and then the garlic bread came with a bowl of dip that I couldn't identify I neither ordered nor ate. When we were finished I told the waiter that I didn't want my other two orders and we would be happy to pay. It happened as it had to. My lentil bread and this bowl of dip, which as I said I neither ordered nor touched, were on the bill. Not my potatoes for that. I pointed this out to the waiter and he took the bill, very annoyed. No apology or anything like that. He came back with the bill corrected in pen and it was still wrong. I then had to calculate it for him and then it really started. He got angry and told me in a very unfriendly tone what I wanted from him, he took out the lentil bread and the other thing on the bill that I complained about was the dip, which as I said I didn't order and didn't eat. I told him that I didn't order the dip and wouldn't pay for it, calculated it for him again and gave him the money for the entire bill. He crumpled up the bill and stomped away angrily. Neither a sorry nor an I'm sorry...nothing. For me it's under the sun. The others' food tasted OK, but the waiter's behavior was terrible. We will not visit this restaurant again.

Food is very tasty 😋 and service are best and 🍷 also good .I visit again and again

The restaurant is very, very good, everything is clean, good service. The food is very very tasty. I can eat here every day and recommend everyone to visit the restaurant.

Very nice Indian restaurant, there is even an extra vegan menu. The service was very good and the food was extremely tasty. Highly recommended.

Wonderfully eaten, really recommended

Food and drinks were very good. Perfect location and beautiful backyard There are also very nice employees. I can only recommend this restaurant.

Food and drinks were very good Nice service I can only recommend this restaurant.

Really VERY tasty and aromatic food!! The conditions were extremely nice and everything went relatively quickly. 5 stars from me!!

The food was very very tasty :) Very nice service and highly recommended! I will definitely come back. Everything was 10/10

It is always pleasant and enjoyable to eat here. The restaurant exudes a friendly foreignness and not only invites you to eat Indian food, but also to get to know and try out Indian culture and the friendliness of the subcontinent. Friendly staff and cleanliness round off the visit.

Very tasty and clean The waiters are very attentive and friendly

I recently went to Masala Rasoi with my friends for a birthday party. It was a great experience, I had never experienced anything like it in a restaurant. The food was delicious, plus the staff at this restaurant is very nice. They speak very politely to their customers. I really love this experience. I recommend all my friends to go there and enjoy the friendly experience and delicious food.

Great. There's such a cool, shady courtyard inside!

A really excellent, genuine Indian restaurant that is unfortunately rarely found in our latitudes. Real Indian chefs who master their food. A large and good selection of originally prepared dishes - spicy is really spicy - and a nice, quiet courtyard in summer - it's better to make a reservation there. We'd love to come back.

The service is very good. The people are all very nice and the food tastes great. I'm very satisfied

The food tastes good and I am generally satisfied.

Last visit was so good that I would say I haven't had better Indian food in Potsdam. But I haven't gotten through all of them yet. Food is very spicy. I'm not talking about salt or sugar. Hearty, spicy, Indian. Maybe a little too spicy for me. But that's how it has to be. Spicy food is therefore really spicy. So be careful. Top bread, top mango lassi. Never had better Indian food in Potsdam. I hope he maintains quality despite the crisis, not like others who have completely lost quality but still raise prices. In times of crisis, you have to think carefully about going to a restaurant. Disappointments are inevitable

We just ordered takeout from our favorite Indian restaurant. We were allowed to sit outside and got 2 mango lassi on the house. Great service and we are really looking forward to the food.

Very nice restaurant, good prices for good food and the owner offered us some drinks ! I highly recommend !

Beautiful garden around the inner courtyard, varied cuisine, great service, there is also space inside for parties! Recommended!

Very tasty food, highly recommended, super tasty and the staff is also very friendly, nice restaurant 👍

I think the restaurant is very nice, the menu is not overloaded with a good number of dishes, the kitchen comes up with different dishes every month. My food was simply delicious, the lassi was also very tasty, and the service was very friendly. If you are in Babelsberg, you should really try the Indian restaurant. I was here for lunch and it was really cheap too!

I recently went Masala rasoi with my friends for birthday party . It was awesome experience, I never felt at any restaurant before . Food was delicious moreover the staff is very nice of this restaurant . They talk very politely with their customers. I really love this experience. I recommend to all my friends visit and enjoy the friendly experience and delicious food .

Food was very very delicious 😋🤤 no have word's for taste I recommend to everyone come to masala rasoi I didn't eat food before like that taste 🫶🫶❤️

Always very tasty and decent portions

Delicious food and courteous service!! There is also a large selection for vegetarians/vegans; highly recommended. Would love to come back. 🤩

We were passing through Potsdam and visited this restaurant on the way. We really liked it! Thanks to the staff and cooks 🔥

I went to the restaurant for the first time. My customers recommended that I try the food. I went there with my family and we really enjoyed the food. I would go there again and again. Service is top and the food came quickly.

Very nice If you are in Potsdam and there is one thing you have to experience, it is the Masala Rasoi Restaurant •Dog friendly •great interior design •relaxing music •delicious food And nice people who are happy to serve you. I'm very impressed An absolute recommendation PS... The mango lassi is definitely worth a taste test!

The food here is super tasty, the staff is extremely accommodating and friendly and the prices are really reasonable. I would come back here at any time. I can especially recommend the mango soup and the mango lassi.

The food was tasty, but few chicken pieces. I ordered tikka masala.

Indian food in Germany is such a thing. There is hardly any authentically good cuisine. When we moved from Berlin Mitte/Prenzlauer Berg to Babelsberg, we could hardly believe that we would find the best Indian in Berlin here (okay 20 minutes away from Berlin and therefore the best Indian in Potsdam). The intensity of the freshly used and processed spices is magical. The team around the owner Ranjid caters to every request and so there are three categories: German-Indian, British-Indian and Indian-Indian. We have now found our new local restaurant here and can only recommend it to everyone.

Masala Rasoi is an Indian restaurant in Potsdam, Babelsberg, the staff is very abusive and the owner is a very useless owner. I worked there as a dishwasher for a month and the owner didn't pay me and acts like he bought it so please don't work in restaurants like that. Thanks.

The food was plentiful and very tasty 😋.

The food was tasty and we enjoyed our meal. The owner was very friendly and kind. Do stop by if you are in the mood for Indian food.

Very good vegetarion thali. The quantity is very generous. I have dined here twice. I would definetly recommend this place for a good north Indian food in Potsdam. The staff is friendly too.

The food was very tasty and the staff was very friendly, the food was of very good quality for little money, I can only recommend it!!

Very nice restaurant, food was very good, nice and attentive staff and therefore highly recommended. gladly again!!! 😊

Great food and very nice staff. Gladly again

We ate there yesterday, the food tasted so good, wow the staff was also very friendly, we'd be happy to come back!!!!!

Wonderful food, excellent prices and super friendly Service. We love it here, this is our favorite place to eat lunch. ☺️

My favorite Indian restaurant in Potsdam! The vegetarian thali is particularly recommended.

The food is incredibly delicious and I recommend the restaurant

The food was delicious, as were the drinks. The staff was attentive and friendly. Five stars for this restaurant

It is good as compared to indian restaurants in potsdam

A shop that has a sheltered garden area, a large selection of indoor seating and a few seats along Rudolf-Breitscheid-Straße. The food was good and both the traditional food and the vegan food were deliciously prepared.

When we arrived with our parents we drank a mango Lasi that came from the world. The next thing we ate a samosa and mix pakoora that tasted heavenly and the service was very friendly and we reserved the food quickly and you know what they say, "The best comes last." For the main course we had a lamb dish, chikan tandoori and so on a paneer tikka tandoori that you can't describe so you have to try it!!! Praise for the boss and the employees

The food is always delicious and there is something for everyone, whether spicy or mild. No matter whether vegan, vegetarian or meat dishes, everything is incredibly delicious. The service and the small backyard are wonderful. If we can't get away from home, we can also highly recommend the delivery service. We always like to come back!

If you like sauces, this is not the place for you! I wasn't that impressed! Ducksteiner yeast was good!

Beautiful restaurant, nice service and super delicious food!!!

We had dinner for four at Masala last Saturday. At 6:00 PM they were quite busy, and the were tightly staffed. We ordered a variety of dishes. The price tag for our dinner was €105. We‘ve had food there before, and enjoyed it. This time around was a different story. The food was relatively bland, to a point where it was hard to tell the dishes apart. Protein was sparse, and it seems as if the just took a few scoops of sauce from a container and added precooked chicken/lamb/shrimp…. you name it. Might as well have been styrofoam. Too bad. It will be a while before we give them a try again.

Mega service was a very nice evening

Great service, great waiters and the food was also great! I would recommend it to everyone

Masal Rasoi food is very delicious and according to my expectation and food service excellent and staff is fully friendly and service very nice.

Very friendly staff, nice atmosphere!

very good restaurant and super nice staff!!

Good food, very good ambience and service.

Nice Indian guy not far from Babelsberg S-Bahn station. The competition from Sagar, a few 100 meters away, tastes a bit better to me, but it's delicious here too.

I recently dined at masala resoi and had an exceptional experience. The flavors were rich and authentic, the service was prompt and courteous, and the ambiance added to the overall enjoyment. Each dish showcased a perfect blend of spices, making it a delightful culinary journey. I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone seeking an exquisite Indian dining experience. Five stars!

Super cozy, friendly, good food... was really good 👍

It's hard to tell from the outside that it's a fairly large store. Finally a business lunch menu with great pricing. Portions for lunch were great and the food was very fresh and tasty. Prices, ambience and service were convincing. Don't walk past it!! You can eat great Indian food here.

Super tasty and super nice. Keep it up.

Hello Today we went to Masala Rasoi, everything was great and the service was good too We had very good experience and must visit this place

Superb experience. Very homely atmosphere and hospitable. The food was very tasty. Highly recommended

We made an order and waited for 30 minutes, a waiter then came to ask what our order was, without even saying sorry. The food was 7/10. Not recommended. UPD. One year later, the restaurant attempted to remove the review with a legal action, luckily, I have paid with a credit card and have the payment transaction recorded with time and date – so no chance applying your dishonest practice in this case. I take the review down to 1 star for this unacceptable practice.

Leckeres Essen und die Mitarbeiter sind sehr freundlich. :))

Sehr leckeres essen und gute bewürtung

Gute Alternative zum Italiener, Griechen usw...

Delicious staff and friendly food

Mitarbeiter waren sehr freundlich! Das Essen war super lecker.. Einziges Manko: das Damen WC könnte "umgestaltet" werden...

Mega lecker, sehr kompetent und freundlich :]

Delicious food at a location tucked away in a small corner. The butter chicken was soft pieces of breast meat coated in this velvety, creamy sauce. The pakora were perfectly crispy, deliciously paired with mint and tamarind chutneys. The naan is fluffy, soft centre with a beautifully browned side. But the star for me was the Goat Curry, it was spicy, rich, just enough chew to it but comes right off the bone. Some of the bones even had marrow in them and that is a treasure in of itself. The staff are very attentive, friendly, and inviting. I found that my water was topped off frequently, they would ask how the meal is, and would explain dishes to other patrons if they weren’t familiar with them. Fantastic experience for a solo dining trip, I well be sure to come back with some friends next time!

Tolles Restaurant und sehr sympathische Gastgeber

Geschmacklich gut Preise in Ordnung Bedienung zuvorkommend Gerne wieder!

Wir hatten vegetarisches und veganes Essen. Sehr schmackhaft.

Essen war sehr lecker, die Bedienung sehr freundlich, der Preis unfassbar günstig.

Tolles Angebot an Speisen. Egal ob vegan, vegetarisch oder mit Fleisch. Klasse Service und schönes Ambiente. Familien mit Kindern sind willkommen und werden super betreut.

Sehr leckeres Essen und sehr guter und lieber Service!! Kommen sehr gerne immer wieder !!!Eine Empfehlung!❤️

Sehr leckeres Essen, sehr netter Service, wir kommen sehr gerne hierher. Einziges Manko ist die Akustik. Vor allem wenn viel los ist ist es unerträglich laut. Aber man kann sehr schön draußen sitzen.

Toll! Angenehme Atmosphäre, gutes Essen, tolles Personal :) Gerne wieder!

ein sehr toller ort um schön indisch essen zu gehen! nur zu empfehlen, nette mitarbeiterInnen und schöne atmosphäre! dazu ist das essen 1A! immer wieder gerne hier!

Sehr gutes Essen, nette Bedienung. Immer wieder gerne.

Sehr leckeres Essen, super gewürzt und sehr große Auswahl auf der Karte. Der Service ist sehr aufmerksam, schnell und freundlich. Das Ambiente ist entspannt und gemütlich. Ich kann das Masala Rasoi wärmstens empfehlen!

Wie immer ein äußerst gelungener Abend in gemütlicher Atmosphäre, sehr aufmerksames, freundlichen Personal und einem unglaublich guten Essen, in hervorragender Qualität! Für uns die 1. Adresse "Indischer Küche"!!!! 👌

Dieses indische Restaurant bietet wirklich leckere, vielfältige und qualitativ gute Gerichte inklusive einer großen Auswahl an vegetarischen und veganen Optionen. Der Service ist freundlich und korrekt. Leider fehlt es in Sachen Ambiente an Gemütlichkeit.

Das Essen war sehr gut. (Die Lammfleischstücke zart). Die Sauce gut gewürzt. Die Bedienung war sehr freundlich. Lediglich das Ambiente ist nur durchschnittlich.

Wir hatten ein super schmackhaftes Mittagessen. Das Mittagsangebot ist preislich mehr als angemessen. Das Essen schmeckt sehr authentisch und ist nicht zu sehr „eingedeutscht.“ Wir kommen auf alle Fälle wieder.

Delicious. The best Indian food I've had in a long time.

The food was so good and authentic, one of the best Indian restaurant in Potsdam

Sehr netter Restaurant zentral in Babelsberg gelegen, sehr schönes Ambiente.

Their chicken curry is best in the whole city .

Very delicious food . You should try their chicken tikka and butter chicken.

Very good food and very professional staff .
