Rita's Gate Of India - Santa Monica

This is now my popular Indian restaurant in LA. The service is top animal, food is beautifully cooked, and decor is beautiful. The owner is only the sweetest soul. Rita comes from a diverse background and you can taste it in the delicious cuisine they cooked. 10/10

Today I tried to dinate to Rita 's Gate of India, but was denied the service as (additionally try to dinate) I asked to use the bathroom. The host said the bathroom is only available for customers. I understand that this is common in most restaurants and asked if I could order some food (and I was hungry btw). She said (again), bathroom only for customers. I let it be known that I understand it and would like to be a customer and order some food. She said flat outside, not tonight... you're not eating here today. I was taken back while I looked around the faces that stare at me. That's what I said, I was politely out of the restaurant. Well, more than ever, would be a good time for the inhabitants of Los Angeles, especially after what is unfolding in the city hall. This is an absolute shame and unacceptable. I will be sure to spread the word as Rita 's Gate of India treats its customers. I can't help but think if I were a lighter track, the result would be different.

The food here is fantastic! I'm visiting my boys from New York, where I can usually find pretty good Indian food. But Rita?s gate of India has spectacular authentic Indian cuisine. Rita does all cooking and boy can use her spices. She made us a dish from the menu with lamb, coconut lime and curry It was amazing! I know my boys come here often, but I can't wait to visit again. Thanks Rita for a wonderful food experience!!!

We love Rita and her food! Absolutely the best!!! Our whole family has to eat here once a week. Besides, they're so sweet for our whole family. Greetings like family. Enjoy!

The food here is INCREDIBLE. Beautifully seasoned, complex, packed with flavor the kind of food that makes you never want to put your fork down. It may take a bit to get your food as the owner, Rita, runs the entire place on her own. It is well worth the wait. I can?t wait to come back. Highlights include: the samosas (huge, crisp, packed with delicious meat) and the chefs special curry (flavorful, spicy in just the right amount, a great combination of salty, tangy, spicy, sweet a truly beautiful to eat)
