Renee Sent on 01/07/2025Kumar can do it all!
We hosted our 150-guest Indian fusion wedding in September 2024 and needed a caterer that could do both crazy good Indian food and also make some good old fashioned meat and potatoes for the American palate. Kumar stood out from the competition, because he can literally do anything you want. He not only owns an indian restaurant, but also an American cafe, and has access to both kitchens for his catering business. So it was no problem to have palak paneer and lamb vindaloo alongside pizza fresh from a pizza oven, and steak and potatoes cooked fresh and medium rare. On top of that, his price was super competitive and his communication and flexibility were top notch. He knows the wedding business, and he knows a lot of people, so he'll also gladly help you scope out other vendors and venues, which was very helpful for us when we were planning our fusion Sangeet party as well. Overall, very pleased! -

Suma Sent on 12/10/2024Rangoli - A lifetime experience of exceptional customer service and superb catering
We recently (Dec, 2024) catered food for our daughter’s wedding from the Rangoli restaurant located at Manasas, VA, both for the Sangeeth and Mehendi event, and the main wedding day. The service, quality and taste of the food and the entire experience for not just us but all our guests was amazing. Mr. Kumar not only worked with us to create a custom menu catering to our unique religious needs without compromising the taste but delivered over and beyond our expectations. He offered guidance, worked with us every step of the way and took care of every detail including packing left overs and ensuring every guest had eaten and was satisfied. His team is professional and the entire crew does a fabulous job. We were extremely satisfied and happy!! -

Very happy we chose Rangoli as the caterer for our son’s wedding at the Hyatt Regency Chesapeake Bay in Cambridge, MD. Mr. Kumar created delicious south Indian, north Indian and fusion menus for our various events including special Karnataka style food. He was easy going, attentive to our needs, open to feedback, and provided great suggestions for improvement and cost saving. He also had a very good relationship with the venue mangers which made everything run smoothly. We enthusiastically recommend Rangoli for anyone looking for multi-cuisine wedding catering, especially Karnataka style food! -

Susan Sent on 05/31/2024Reception to celebrate my son's marriage
Our event was designed to bring Indian and Jewish culture together- with vegetarian foods from both traditions. Rangoli initially was contracted to provide Dosa and Indian appetizers and entrees. We enjoyed meeting with Kumar and participating in a tasting of his dishes- including his surprising us with some delicious falafel and cauliflower from my Jerusalem cookbook. (2 weeks before our event the caterers that were going to offer Mediterranean dishes went out of business. Kumar said he could fill in and make the hummus, falafel and cauliflower for the pita sandwiches. I was very appreciative of this flexibility so that we could offer food of both traditions for everyone.) We had many compliments about the food at our party- both the Indian and Mediterranean inspired. The Dosa station was a hit with fresh Dosas being made outdoors. The staff was very attentive and took care of keeping the food plentiful and hot. Everything was professionally set up and then cleaned up later by the Rangoli staff. Our kitchen was left in very good condition after the event. We felt the event went very well and I was thrilled that Kumar provided everything I asked for. I was very impressed with his reliability and eye for detail- to be sure everything looked and tasted right. -

Kumar and his team provided great service at our wedding and reception! Kumar was very responsive and accommodating right from the beginning. He made sure that we had a good experience at tasting and helped us build out a great menu for the day. Our guests couldn't stop raving about the food - right from the welcome drinks to dessert. We also used Rangoli's services for furniture and linen rentals. The team did a great job getting us what we wanted and ensuring seamless set up and breakdown as well as a smooth transition between events. We highly recommend Rangoli and Kumar's team! -

Kumar and his team went above and beyond to ensure the success of our sons engagement party. As a Caterer, Kumar was responsive to all of my questions and provided guidance along the way. They arrived on time for the event and were setup in time for our, despite some barriers. His team was dressed and behaved in a very professional manner to meet the needs of our guest. Kumar, himself, assured me that I could leave and get ready and that he would make sure everything was ready, prior to our guest arrival. since the venue was outdoors, I was assigning one of my family members to light candles when it turned dark, Kumar stepped up and assured me that his team would light the candle so that we could enjoy the event. He even provided special Jain food for my mother and proceeded to serve her, while encouraging me to enjoy the even. Kumar treated my son engagement as if it was for his own family. I would HIGHLY recommend Kumar and his team to anyone that needs catering. -

Dipika Sent on 07/13/2022Rangoli made our meals memorable!
We really appreciated Kumar and his team's attention and care to serving excellent traditional South Indian breakfast and lunch for our wedding! The way they prepared the dishes was perfect and got compliments both from family visiting from South India and from non-Indians who in some cases were enjoying their first South Indian meal. We also ordered a full Indo-Chinese spread for a mehendi party and had individual mango lassi shooters for after the baraat, and all were prepared and delivered with care. It was extremely easy working with Kumar as he is very responsive and helpful, and his team is flexible and happy to accommodate! We went with Rangoli because we've had their food before and now that we've worked with them we'd definitely recommend them to others. -

We requested brunch service relatively late/last minute in our wedding plans. Mr Kumar was fortunately available and very kind to agree to do it even after it didn’t workout with first vendor.
He was very kind, receptive and extremely professional over the phone.
Food came very timely.
It was loved by all our guests from various parts of India who had different palates for food appreciation. We had multiple excellent comments.
He was very honest in his dealings.
I would go with him again any day. -

Rajashree Sent on 05/29/2022Rangoli went above and beyond!
Picking a caterer we trust to handle food and execution was crucial and our biggest stress. We decided to go with Rangoli because we loved the food at the tasting, especially the Gujarati dishes, non-veg dishes and desserts. Also, we really enjoyed working with Kumarji because he was patient, honest, respectful and very receptive to feedback. When it came to our big day Kumarji was hours early, worked closely with venue to execute lunch and dinner, and the food was amazing! It was very important to Kumarji that Harsh and I were happy from start to end and we are truly grateful. We highly recommend hiring Rangoli for your event. -
