About Rasā House

Rose Bay gets an inventive jolt of South and Southeast Asian plates across the road from the water. Vinyl records spin mellow lounge grooves by the turntable while tables fill with share plates. Regulars lean straight toward the crispy martabak and citrus tuna crudo, before passing around warm, blistered flatbread dolloped with whipped feta and mango chilli relish. The kitchen pairs charcoal-grilled ribeye alongside unexpected mashups like saag pumpkin gnocchi, matched with house cocktails or cellar pours while you linger well past dark.

  • Inventive Pan-Asian Plates: South and Southeast Asian spice profiles meet inventive plates like saag pumpkin gnocchi, crispy martabak, and blistered flatbread with mango chilli relish.
  • Vinyl & Water Views: Analog records spin mellow lounge tracks on an in-house turntable while diners take in water views across the road.
  • Curated Cocktails & Wine: Creative mixed drinks like the mango lassi cocktail pair with an attentive wine list tailored for long evenings.
  • Charcoal Grills & Skewers: Tender charcoal-grilled ribeye and char siu glazed skewers anchor the savoury side of the share-plate menu.
