Cold food

Below expectations
After some hard morning shopping on Oxford Street, I decided to go to Rasa W1 mainly because I'd been to their other restaurants and I'd heard they did a mean lunch box.
I walked into the restaurant and three of the waiters were just staring at me. Not the friendliest of welcomes, eventually I got a lunch box and asked if I could sit down to eat it. The waiters again looked at me strangely and started talking to each other in Hindi. Eventually they checked if it was okay and I sat down. It was a bit odd to check if I could sit in an empty restaurant on my own, especially as they cleared me out of the way by putting me upstairs.
I got to my lunch box and it was pretty cold. I knew it wasn't meant to be cold, mainly because it was slightly lukewarm, and even the rice was cold. Not great, I thought. So I managed to eat it and left.
The lunch box would have been nice if it was hot, as Rasa usually do really good food. Plus the lunch box was only £3 so it was a bit of a bargain. Even so, it's not good to serve cold food and then have the waiters check if I can sit down.
I would recommend Rasa, just make sure you go in the evening!
