We
are excited to welcome you to Rania, DC's newest, hottest destination
for modern Indian food. Tom Sietsema has called our food "some of the
most inspired Indian cooking in DC." Here at Rania, we offer homage to
the time-honored traditions, rich flavors, and spices of India in an
intimate, luxurious setting. We look forward to sharing our vision with
you!
Choose between our sophisticated, highly acclaimed 3 or
4-course prix-fixe menu, or a flexible à la carte option (note: à la
carte available for dinner Tuesday through Thursday, and Friday &
Saturday after 9 PM)
Led by Executive Chef Chetan Shetty—formerly of the critically acclaimed Indian Accent in New York and Delhi (#22 on the prestigious 2022 Asia’s 50 Best list)—RANIA will introduce our guests to a new and unexpected approach to Indian cuisine.
Eater Washington DC
Much of India’s rich history can be observed through the lens of regional cuisine. Influenced by nine major religions, a range of geographic landscapes, trade routes, and colonization, there’s more to India than vindaloo and naan (although those dishes are undeniably popular for good reason). The D.C. area is a hub for Indian immigrants, with many choosing to share their memories and family recipes in professional kitchens.
From nationally lauded, modernized fine dining venues to fast-casual counters, here are over a dozen reliable destinations for Indian food around D.C.
The palace-like Penn Quarter space that formerly housed Punjab grill reopened this spring as a luxe new Indian restaurant called Rania, which means “Queen” in Hindi and Sanskrit. Chef Chetan Shetty, who recently cooked at acclaimed New Delhi restaurant Indian Accent, guides diners through a multi-course dinner of inventive Indian cuisine that goes way beyond the expected (as in dishes like braised lamb shank accented with spinach, coconut foam, ghoda masala spice blend, and mustard frills). Prix-fixe menus of three ($75) or four courses ($90) join an a la carte menu at the restaurant’s Sundowner Bar.
Rania offers guests the option between a 3 or 4-course prix-fixe menu OR an à la carte menu. The
prix-fixe menu is available for either 3 courses ($75) or 4 courses
($95), with the option to add wine pairings and cocktails as desired. The
à la carte menu will be available Tuesdays thru Thursdays, and Fridays
and Saturdays after 9 pm. The à la carte menu will not apply to our
special holiday menus. vv
