    One my favourite places to visit in Southall. My choice is always the Rita’s special chaat and Kulfi falooda.

    5 of us ate lunch here yesterday and it was absolutely lovely. The total bill came to just under £60 for food and drinks which we thought was exceptionally good value! Julie looked after us with such kindness and gave us fantastic recommendations on which food to order. Service was fast, the restaurant was clean and the food was amazingly tasty with generous portions so I would have no hesitation in recommending to friends and family. I wish we could have tried more items on the menu… but will have to save that for another time. I would definitely return. Thank you to Julie and everyone at Rita’s for a great meal xxx

    This was and is for sure My first love on the whole Southall parade. Yes, I went there but they have an amazing selection of everything sweet, tangy, and everything in between. Service is so fast! Been going there for 10 years and never disappointed. The bhel puri chaat, samosa chaat and gol gappe will always warm my heart. Always recommend. There's options for kids too. I just wish they'd expand for seating is limited but that doesn't stop us.

    Lovely meal. The chicken pakora was particularly good. I loved the rose lassi. Would definitely go again!

    Authentic Indian food. The waitress was so nice and recommended us some excellent dishes as we were innocent about this cuisine we’ve been missing out.

    I sent my husband on a 1 hour drive to get me ritas house special and he comes home with these burnt gol gappay from them. Rita's i am so disappointed that you would compromise your house special over saving money on a few crispy puffs. Waste of money for me and waste of journey. Will not be recommending you again!

    You have to wait terribly long for the food. We had a mango lassi which tasted like mango syrup in milk. The vindaloo was extremely basic but the butter chicken was nice. They have decent breads I don’t recommend the garlic kulcha. Do not have the momos they just reheat supermarket frozen ones - you could do that at home. Not a fan of the service or food. If this wasn’t one of the only stores open in South-hall after 9 PM I would never have visited !

    Go here for the best chhole bhature in town! They are authentic amritsari chhole bhature..so hard to find these days with the Delhi version gaining popularity. We also tried the jaljeera and loved it. The place can get very crowded on weekends and service is slow- but then the food quality and value make up for it.

    I had the Lamb curry accompanied with plain roti, both the taste and portion was good. Definitely do give it a try if you are visiting Southall. Didn't try the Chaats here hence can't comment.

    Their special chaat was super super, we asked for spicy 🔥🔥🔥 and we got the taste. And the Sarson ka Saag with Makki ki Roti What was amazing was traditional Dahi Typical North INDIAN food, your addiction is guaranteed. I am just waiting to be there again

    A good place for authentic Indian street food. Some dishes are great, like their house chaat and chole bhature, and some could be better. The staff are super friendly and helpful. They accept both card and cash.

    This used to be a good place to eat. But they have become busy. Serving poor quality food with poor customer care. I hope this help them change attitude towards customers.

  • 1/5 shaz a. 9 months ago on Google
    Shocking service. I asked if they have meat and veg samosas in stock. They said they do have them. The lady then asked me how many I want. I said I wanted 4 (2 meat, 2 veg). The lady replied “what, only 4?”, I replied “yes, just 4”. She again asked “only 4?”. I again replied, “yes, just the 4”. She then poked her head round the corner into the kitchen and in a few seconds came back to me saying “sorry, none in stock”. She blatantly would have them in stock if I wanted a more significant quantity than 4. Absolutely no understanding of customer service!!

    Food - really nice and tasty. You get authentic taste of street food just like in India. Service - Good but can be better. The staff struggled to find a table for 6, whereas table-for-2s were vacant and table-for-6+ were occupied by couples. Ambience - Neutral, not that good or bad either. Definitely can be improved. Prices - A but on the higher end (a bit over-priced). Would be a very nice place to revisit if prices are balanced a bit. Overall - a decent place if you are looking for Indian Chaat/ street food.

    The prices are decent for London but average for the area. The Royal Chaat was very tasty. Dahi vada was soggy and not great. Would come back again.

    The restaurant was a bit packed when we arrived there, but it was interestingly not super noisy. There is a wide range of dishes, hence why it is recommended to dedicate time to the menu before You make selection. We were all pleased with the quality of our meals, thus we would gladly return here one day. All the meals were prepared within 15 minutes. Card payment was smooth.

    Visited with friends. Tried their signature Amritsari Kulcha & Chole Bhatura with Lassi. Everything was fantastic. Service was good. Will go again. Highly recommend this place for desi food lovers.

  • 5/5 JK S. 7 months ago on Google • 85 reviews
    The food is so tasty here and portion sizes are big too. My favs are papdi chaat and cholae bhatura,

  • 5/5 RohitB a. 8 months ago on Google • 81 reviews
    To die for Chole Bhature. Five star for that amazing taste, don't be fooled by the surroundings. The food was so full of flavor, as one would note made by the best Chefs, ladies of the house.

  • 4/5 Noman H. 3 months ago on Google • 78 reviews New
    Another repeat visit was another good experience. The special chaat was simply outstanding. Dahi Puri wasn't anything special. The winning trick is to have the food there and then. Take away and later consumption just doesn't work for this kind of food.

  • 4/5 Taran K. 3 months ago on Google • 66 reviews New
    Recommend by Britain got Bhukkad(Raj Shah) We had 2 mooli pranthas with Dahi, 1 chole bhature, Dahi puri, makki roti and saag. All in £44.00 including masala's cha. Food was extremely good and the service was marvellous.(18/02/24) The place itself wasn't clean enough and the toilets were out of order.

    Superb taste, amazing chat, really loved it. Its far from where I live but i dont mind driving 40 miles to eat this delicious chat

  • 5/5 Ajeet S. 3 months ago on Google • 3 reviews New
    We ate Chole Bhature. And House Special chaat is just perfect. We thank Gloria for the bestest service. She is so lovely and speaks so nice. Service is fast. Only thing is when guests come in , the door doesn’t get closed and it gets cold inside. They may insert an another glass door or plastic curtain, so that people do not freeze Rest everything is just perfect. People , Food , family atmosphere. Good food Good mood. Thanks a lot

    Ordered from here for the first time, and hands down this got to be one of the best indian takeaways i ever had, the lamb biryani was full of flavour and spices, who ever making this food isnt cutting corners or rushing you can tell its made with passion, not only that its good value, other places charge more and the food aint good

  • 4/5 Samaher M. 10 months ago on Google
    Best pani puri in London, waitress was lovely and gave us good recommendations. Everything was great except the pakoras, would have liked them to be thinner and crispier.

  • 5/5 Waseem M. 2 years ago on Google
    Never tried anything as spectacular as the house chaat anywhere else that I have been. These guys are the best

  • 5/5 S M. 2 years ago on Google
    Their food is incredible! It's become our family favourite and anything we have ordered has been so delicious. The chicken pakoras and all their chaats are unbeatable.

  • 2/5 Silent T. 1 year ago on Google
    Standard restaurant with an ok selection of item to chosen from. We ordered the mixed Pani Puri and the Chicken Dosa (which the staff member informed us we would have to wait 25min as people have already placed orders for it even though we were the only ones in the restaurant) The Pani Puri was ok and the chicken dosa was standard but filling. Staff were rude as they kept trying to get rid of us to let the "white" customers to be seated.

  • 1/5 Common M. 2 years ago on Google
    Not tasty. Did complain to owner for the taste. He Did nothing. Never ever visiting again. There are better options on the southall Broadway.

  • 5/5 Amit P. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice food and decent service. Feels proper desi with the desi taste. Highly recommended!

  • 3/5 Manjot K. 2 years ago on Google
    Would recommend this place as far as the food goes. Their naans are fresh and amazing as well as kebab rolls and delicious chaats. However the cleanliness of the restaurant and service of the staff was a real let down. Apart from one lovely lady, I did not see a smile on anyone face, which really doesn’t give the business a nice look. Also, the state of the bathroom was awful and as far as customers are able to see the kitchen it really does not look appealing at all. I probably won’t order again, due to hygiene concerns but food was tasty.

  • 5/5 faisal h. 2 years ago on Google
    Various chaats available.. I tried rits's special Chaat and it was Mind blowing true taste of India I must say.. So to all the Chaat lovers Rita's is highly recommended. Owners r really Humble and friendly.. It was a real treat to b at Rita's.

  • 5/5 mani m. 2 years ago on Google
    About in the middle of southhall broadway among many other interesting food shops. It offers some proper traditional *chatt-pata* food, i tried gol gappas simple and with chat style and it was absolutely outstanding, good portion size, excellent taste and presentation. If you want to taste real punjab snacks this is the place.. I must say **Chass aa gya**

  • 2/5 Amarjeet K. 2 years ago on Google
    Masala dosa is literally a big thin roti stuffed with little masala. Not a place to eat dosa, their chats are worth try.
