Wanted to love this so badly. The food looks absolutely mouthwatering. The menu looks expansive and flavorful. I could not wait to try it. Unfortunately, the food I tried was completely average. The garlic naan and chicken tikka masala/butter chicken were quite plain and lacked flavor. Maybe we ordered the wrong dishes because the mango lassi was delicious.
Rita’s Gate of India excels at presenting both classic and regional Indian dishes with bold flavor and refined balance. The Achari meat was tender and slow-cooked to perfection, with a rich gravy that lingered on the palate. For vegetarians, the paneer tikka masala and velpuri was creamy and satisfying, and the garlic naan arrived perfectly charred and buttery.The spice levels are customizable, making the food approachable for all palates, while still preserving the richness...
This meal was very good. No one was there. My kind of scenario. I had the lemon curry with shrimp and the tofu saag paneer. Both were spicy and delicious. Staff were attentive and welcoming.
