Wow, I had a great evening at RAS, an Ethiopian-inspired vegan restaurant in New York’s West Village. RAS is led by chefs Romeo and Milka Regalli, who created an innovative, holistic, health-driven vegan menu inspired by their Ethiopian roots. The servings were flavorful, delicious, and filling. I loved the hamburger—one of the best I’ve had. Had I not known, I would have never guessed it was a non-meat deliciousness. The food was followed by great cocktails. The service was impeccable, and the vibe was incredible. The amazing experience truly reflected the restaurant’s mission statement as stated on their site: OUR MISSION Every plate is a canvas, every flavor a narrative. Beyond serving food, we craft memories. With each bite, feel our dedication to warmth and genuine connection, creating moments that linger long after the meal concludes.
