I’d been wanting to try this place for a while, and I wasn’t disappointed. The menu looks amazing and it’s hard to choose. We shared the tuna tartare to start, super fresh and delicious. For mains, we had the Verdun Hot Honey pizza, which was generous and tasty, and the gnocchi in a squash mornay sauce. The sauce was incredible, especially with the stracciatella and pistachios on top. A really rich, well-balanced dish.
The downside: the gnocchi themselves were heavy and doughy, not light at all. More like dense balls of pasta, which was disappointing.
And the cocktails… we had the raspberry passion one, and honestly, it barely tasted like it had alcohol in it…maybe a drop. Pretty underwhelming for the price.
Would I go back? Yes, because the food overall was excellent.

We had a great experience here. The food was very good and lives up to the hype. The menu is medium sized diverse in flavors. The service is very good. Servers are working together so you are never looking for anyone. Dessert should not be skipped. The olive oil cake is incredible. I would have liked a few more cocktail options but the wine list is big. The space is get pretty and the background noise isn't intrusive so you can easily catch up and chat.

We had a wonderful dining experience at Rita! The food was absolutely excellent and the service was just as impressive. Our waiter, Pierre Joseph, was truly #1 — attentive, friendly, and made the evening extra special. We’re already looking forward to our next dinner at Rita.
Unique pizza flavours. We enjoyed the flavour with hot honey and the olive oil cake. Excelente service!

Host, waitresses, and staff were gracious and respectful. Reserved for 8:30pm. My wonderful date is a wheelchair user. Rita was exceptionally busy and the hostess graciously made room for us on the terrace. We had a delightful evening. The food, wine, atmosphere and the summer night breeze we felt we were on vacation in our own city. Thank you Rita!

Worst service waited 1 hour ( and still have not called us) to call us for available table and they told it will be 20 minutes for outside table. Wellington has a weird vibe, Mile has nicer restaurants and people. Never coming back here.

Excellent Italian restaurant! Their classic dishes are always made to perfection, their consistency is incredible. We love how they always have seasonal specials too, it makes you feel the restaurant is a living thing. Highly recommend you come here especially during summer when the terrace is open. Their desserts are so well made, they taste homy
