Ritu - Seasons Of India in City of London, Westminster

Loved the place - great food (not your ordinary Indian place) with super interesting cocktails and excellent service. Will be back

Food was good. Could be more authentic in taste. Service was ok - food came out quickly. However the waitress did not smile and we complimented on the presentation, she gave a blank expression. No hand bowl or hot towel. Didn’t even ask us if we wanted any dessert. Tandoor chicken was burnt.

Nice place between St. John's Wood and Maida Vale. Original dishes that are well cooked. Not the least expensive Indian in the world, but delicious. Met the owner's father and chatted a bit about business/how to grow....very nice folks.

Food was amazing but she asked for saffron rice she gave us plein, we was talking and eating slowly she came and asked to clean table , we didn’t ask for check but she bring it.time was 15 minute to 10 pm and she was in rush to clean table.we liked the food but she isn’t nice at all .

Very nice restaurant, service was great and food had an authentic and a smart vibe. Will go again :-)

Ordered a take away: after much anticipation didn’t enjoy it all. Food was over cooked and not enjoyable. And overpriced for what you get. I would hope that the restaurant would take this seriously as I won’t be coming back.

Used to be delicious - and we used to order all the time but today it was so disappointing. Tiny portions (4 pieces of chicken for £22 takeaway), and swimming in oil and so greasy. Also tasted sweet which is really inauthentic. It used to come in beautiful containers, now all plastic. Won’t be ordering again

We wanted to visit Ritu for a while due to its high ratings, however last minute booking for a group of 6 never worked out because the restaurant is fairly small and popular. Finally we got lucky and managed to book a table to celebrate a birthday. The restaurant lives up to its reputation (and our expectations) - small and cozy, quiet, with polite service and good quality food. Things to keep in mind: * book in advance - the place is popular * fairly compact layout - there is no room for running around * reasonable, but not enormous, selection of options * relatively pricey (£300 for 6 people having mains and several starters, without alcohol) We enjoyed our visit - thank you!

Everything was delicious! The food all came out quickly and was so flavorful. Our server was very attentive. 10/10 would recommend

Lovely ambience and amazing food... great service by Siddhi... very welcoming person... has great suggestions... 10/10 for presentation and 10/10 for taste of Mumbai Martini 😊

Amazing Indian food in North London - Some of the best I’ve ever had. Definitely a more up market style Indian which is reflected in the prices however it’s certainly worth it compared to typical run of the mill curry houses in my opinion. The quality of the ingredients is obvious, and there are unique flavours and styles of dishes including the Lamb Gosht which was incredible and the Naan breads which were a standout too. Lovely staff , great decor and also nice cocktails too. Will be back!

Lovely meal in the terrace area Served by Siddhi and she was a delight super helpful and advised on all meals and was super polite Food is great and full of flavour We will be back!

Beautiful place, food is hit and miss. The butter chicken was solid, the goat stew had no flavour outside of spiciness. Food took 1.5 hrs to be served with no attempts to make up for it. A pretty bad experience for a pricey place despite the cozy decor.

Looking for Indian while walking Abbey Road. Don't know the connection, but glad we found this restaurant. We were asked if we had a reservation (we didn't) but we were immediately seated. My wife had the Tandoori Chicken and I had the Roganjosh. Both dishes were well presented, so much so that my wife had to take a picture of her's. Though we didn’t get the names those waiting on us, everyone working there on 5/4/2024 were very attentive and we couldn’t have had a better meal.

Best curry I think I ever had (and I go very very frequently!)

I really enjoyed the food, service everything was spectacular! You need to try their corn and jalapeño samosa! So yum!!!

Loved everything about this place, the food was outstanding the best I've had outside India! Great service too and helpful. Just amazing, I definitely going back 🫶✨️

Had one amazing evening and best Indian food in London. A big thanks to manager Pratik for taking care of us and amazing cocktails made by oscar. A great service from Gagan ❤️ highly recommend south Indian potato roast and paneer starters.

Best indian food i’ve ever eaten 😍😍

Absolutely delighted with my dining experience at Ritu London! From the moment I stepped in, I knew I was in for a treat. The ambiance was warm and inviting, setting the perfect stage for an evening of culinary delights. But it was the food that truly stole the show. As someone who appreciates authentic Indian cuisine, I must say, Ritu exceeded all expectations. The butter chicken was simply divine, bursting with rich flavors and cooked to perfection. Each bite was a symphony of taste that left me craving for more. The attention to detail in every dish showcased the chef's dedication to quality and authenticity. Moreover, the service was impeccable, with the staff going above and beyond to ensure a memorable dining experience. Without a doubt, Ritu has earned its place as my go-to spot for Indian food in London. Highly recommended to all food enthusiasts seeking an unforgettable culinary journey!

Excellent Birthday meal for my daughter tonight at Ritu restaurant the food was amazing and portions more than enough !!!!. The presentation of the food and the attententive staff was excellent. The birthday dessert with candle and birthday motive was great and they played happy birthday song. Well worth a second visit. Thank you to all the staff !!!

Incredible flavours of India. Real authentic butter chicken and dal makhani. Transports you instantly to incredible restaurants in India. Came here with friends and everyone was more than happy.

We went to Ritu for the first time as we heard through family it was great food. We were beyond disappointed. 1) the service was extremely slow. It took ages for us to get our starters. 2) food- we ordered chicken kebabs which came to us raw. When we complained- the steward insisted it was the way the chicken was marinated and that’s why it is “pink” inside. Not only was it raw, but it was smelling so bad- we asked the staff to smell after which he agreed and said it smelt “pungent”. The mains were disappointing as well- the bharta was just full of garam masala- there was absolutely no flavour of the Smokey aubergine ( I am a chef myself and I know how to make bharta- this was far from good). The dal makhani was average dal- no flavour of makhan or smoke. Worst of all, we ordered 2 biryanis- the rice of the biryani was fat- I’m not sure which rice they use but it 100 percent wasn’t basmati. The owner very nicely came up and apologised and said he would “remove” the chicken kebab from the bill- I was surprised at this statement because ofcourse I wasn’t going to pay for RAW SMELLY chicken!!!! It wasn’t a favour they did for us!! This meal left me hungry and I wouldn’t come here again, I think I can cook a better meal myself!

We attended Iftar here. We had the iftar set menu. For £35 per person, the food is extremely tasty but the portions are ridiculously small. Its like a taster menu. In comparison, Dishoom offers the same if not better standard of food, with more generous portions and at a cheaper cost. Ritu is worth a visit if you are not too hungry and prepared to pay a premium for tasty food!!

Excellent Indian food - portions aren’t very big but the flavors are spot on. Love the laziz pasanda, the bhindi achari, the lotus stem chaat and the mango lassi. Good service and cute decor. Will be back! Came back for dinner and it was amazing - the nizami handi, the alleppy fish curry, the gunpowder prawn and the tawa pulao were delicious. Good / attentive service, the only downside is that they don’t accept Amex which is a bit ridiculous considering dishes are expensive / priced at a premium.

Fantastic experience, will come back again and recommended 🥇

Amazing food and cocktails. I highly recommend the biryani and the hibiscus cocktail. The ambience and staff were also great.

The best indian restaurant here in London. Amazing food and cocktails, the biryani was to die for. I also highly recommend Mirch Mango Masti cocktail.

HALAL STATUS: Fully Halal food menu (duck subject to availability (phone ahead); prepped & cooked separately) • Alcohol served. Ritu certainly put the 'seasons' of India into its new tasting menu, which offered enough quality and variety to make our first visit to this restaurant a truly memorable one. Muslim Head Chef Shoeb Haider churned out one quality dish after another, with some we'd never had before, such as Ritu's version of a Pasanda, and the Gajjar Ka Halwa Strudel; and others we're not going to be forgetting in a hurry, with one or two that'll probably be in the offing for our end of year awards. With a solid 4.5/5 rating, there's plenty to admire here, with many more intriguing dishes worth revisiting for. Respect to Ritu!

The food was so good, I’m giving five stars despite receiving mediocre service (perhaps we were underdressed?). Everything from the papadams and chutneys (definitely order these) to the naan, pilau, and sides to the sumptuous mains was excellent. Some of the best Indian food I’ve ever had.

I think one of the best Indian food I have ever tried. The ambiance was relaxing and cozy, while the service was fantastic! I will definitely visit Ritu on my next trip in London.

Hugh improvement from the kast time I went there...food quality

Food was good with nice flavors, pleasant space, comfortable and clean.

I recently dined at Ritu, and I must say it was an extraordinary culinary experience. The Laziz Pasanda and Dhaba Makhani Chicken were out of this world, probably the best Indian food I've ever had. What's more, their happy hour with buy one get one free drinks is a fantastic deal. The mango margarita with real fresh mangoes was simply phenomenal. Ritu is a must-visit for any Indian cuisine enthusiast!

Me and partner visited Ritu's last month, the food and cocktails was a delight. The service was fast and ambience was great. However guests need to be careful as one of the lovely lady working there told us they don't get the service charges or the extra tip we had for the staff members. The business pockets the service charges. On going guests be aware. Was appalled to find out such a fancy place doing scamming act like this. Looking forward to visiting Ritu's again when I'll be back to London for christmas break, hopefully this will change or might have to take some actions as a worker in the media sector will need to shine some light on businesses like this. 👍🏾

I think it is the best Indian restaurant in the area. The sophisticated cooking, the spices that bring out the best in the meat, fish, cheese, and vegetables to create a deep and complex flavor, and the beautiful presentation all make for a wonderful experience. The prices, of course, are high. My one disappointment was that the main dish, for which I left the sauce with the naan, was taken away without confirmation.

Superb! Lamb chops were amazing. The service was fantastic. Lovely staff and just a really nice vibe.

The food was delicious and the service was fantastic. We enjoyed it a lot :)

Very accommodating staff- great drinks selection and excellent food. Atmosphere is social but not loud or raucous- and décor is of very high quality

Oh my… One of the worst Indian places I’ve been too. Everything over or under seasoned Cocktails a child would send back… Stay home.. make an omelette

Over all a good experience, food was good, and the staff was very warm and attentive. It was quiet when I visited. I want to see the service when it's busy. My family and I enjoyed the food, and the dal was the best I had so far in london. The music selection can be better. The toilets can be cleaner The tables for groups of 4 can be bigger. Overall, it's really good and will be one of my favourite places to go for Indian Food for sure and will ask my friends to visit too Thanks to the chef and the staff who served us today See u soon V

Very pricey for portion sizes, especially for Indian cuisine. Everything tasted great but it wasn’t enough food. I wouldn’t return because of the prices.

I’m quite often left disappointed with the vast majority of Indian cuisines available out there HOWEVER this one blew me away, from the phenomenal Lamb Chops to the succulent Gunpowder Prawns, the food & flavours were incredible. Massive thank you to the team for their efforts & a special thanks to Ragbir for his attentiveness & effort, will certainly be back soon.

Tasty food but small portions and overpriced. Samosas are particularly good, also enjoyed the Rogan Josh. However, cost over £65 for 2 starters and 2 curries with rice, and not completely satisfied.

The cocktails were well made and presented Food was spot on! Lovely flavours and they made the food according to your spice preference Would certainly come back again.

Over priced and under delivered. Ordered for the 1st time and won’t do it again. Food in REALLY salty.

I've heard good things about it. Even though I have not been there, I need to make a visit.

The staff at Ritu gave us a warm welcome and suggested a number of dishes to share, explaining spice and suggestions. It all became an event by it self and something to remember our trip by. So good and our only problem now is that our local indian restaurant back home in Sweden is to far from this standard.

The food is incredible. This has to be the best restaurant hands down in St John’s Wood and the standard of cooking easily matches any of the best Indian restaurants in central. I can’t recommend enough and hats off to everyone at Ritu.

The food from Ritu is excellent, especially the Dahl Markhani. We ordered our food for delivery, so I cannot comment on the restaurant’s atmosphere. Everyone in our group was happy with their food - not easy to achieve with a group of 10 people.

Incredibly disappointing. On the plus side, the waiter was friendly and efficient, and they have a lovely large raised outdoor terrace. Sadly, these were massively outweighed by the really poor cooking. The "Papad Tray" had very moorish mini papadoms, but the chutneys were tasteless. The "Blue Cheese Malai Brocolli" was overcooked. For a main course, I asked for something really spicy with lots of chilli; the waitress recommended the "Champaran Gosht" - truly one of the poorest, blandest and least interesting dishes I have ever tasted. I had read the uniformly good reviews and arrived with high expectations. Maybe the chef was off duty that evening, but no inclination to give it another chance.

We went to ritu recently. We enjoyed goin there previously but after this last experience not sure of going back. they used to have a great menu and food was good. but i belive they have made some changes in their menu and it has actually taken away ftom the authentic flavors that they started with. The staff is really good and usually i believe the owner is there and he is great too. But i wish they chnage the menu again so we can actually enjoy the meal again and take more people to the restaurant as the ambience is great.

This place is such a treasure find! We had many restaurant choices around our hotel but came upon this one. We absolutely loved everything we ordered and are greeted by very friendly staffs! This will set up a very high standard for what to expect of Indian food/restaurant everywhere now.

Perhaps one of the best meals I had in London. The food was really good but the atmosphere was simply AMAZING. It’s just a few blocks away from Abbie Rd Crossing

Had an excellent dinner experience at Ritu, one of the best Indian restaurants we've been to in London.

The chicken was so burnt we had to return it. Okra is super salty. The starter chips are very good and so is the cheese dish. Overall a bit disappointed

Amazing ! Highly recommend ! Service and owner are all outstanding !

Excellent food, highly recommend it

Excellent quality Indian food in friendly local environment. One my (new) favourites now! The Chenin blanc was really good also. Bottles of beer at £9 perhaps(!) a bit excessive though.

An overall excellent experience. Our visit to Ritu was tremendously flavorful and welcoming. The biryani was presented on a bamboo container, the starters were tremendously good and the pulao with chicken tikka were also amazing. Excellent option here in the neighborhood.

My husband and I ate at Ritu London twice during our week in London-fabulous! First night I had the Sarson Wala Salmon -exquisite flavors! The second night Murgh Tikka Hara Pyaaz -chicken tossed in Masala sauce with heat and spice for interest. My husband had Champaran Gosht and Gosht Kaftak Awadhi both lamb dishes that he enjoyed as well. Even the garlic naan was exceptional. I must also mention that the staff were attentive and professional. And, if any reader is from the USA, you are in for a treat because Indian cuisine is very different in the UK -Ritu London is for you!

Some of the best Indian food I've ever had.

We were there last evening. Food was awesome and gives you authentic Indian taste. Highly recommended.

One of the best meals I have had in a while, The food, warmth is just perfect. The tasting menu is a must try, its value for money. Cant wait to visit again.

Amazing place with amazing food.. feels like home.. everything was just perfect from their service to their taste! Also the interiors are soo prettyyyy ! This place is a vibe

Finally a traditional and delicious Indian food experience for me. The team was very helpful in explaining the origin and flavour palette of the dishes and were very welcoming. I especially enjoyed the exceptional choices for vegan food and their unique cocktails. I cant wait to visit again.

Their food genuinely tastes like ACTUAL Indian food and it’s delicious. The ambience is soothing with a great bar menu. Would highly recommend.

We went for Iftar menu as I booked after asking in instagram if they have one. I was surprised that they told me that I need to write this on the notes when making the reservation even though I booked through the link on instagram and there was nothing stating that I should’ve done that.. I was not impressed with food or the portions and we ended up paying 60£ for what’s in the picture (4 samosas and 4 chicken wings) with only one naan for 2 people with salads, some fruits and drinks.. I also hated the way the manager treated us as he was speaking very loudly and almost shouting! I didn’t feel welcome at all. The girls were really nice to us and that’s the only advantage along side the drinks. However, I won’t come again

Beautiful setting very good food and the staff was very friendly and clean. Thanks

Very bad service. 1 hour to get served

Fantastic gem - in particular considering this is a residential part of London. Flavours are exceptional. Sonali is one of the best waitresses we’ve ever had the chance to meet!

I’ve never eaten such great Indian food ever in Europe. The warmth of the people working there is also something which will make your experience in Ritus a banging experience. And guess what, a great menu of cocktails too.

London is renowned for having the best Indian cuisine outside of the Indian subcontinent, and we have demonstrated that to be true.

Delicious food; friendly service.

Great food and service. I recommend the dal with pilau rice and the laziz pasanda

What a beautiful lovely resturent ! Amazing food so tasty and full of flavour! Loved the vibe and ambience and the customer service was above and beyond! Can’t wait to go back! Highly recommend this hidden gem!

The service was impeccable. I loved the ambiance of the restaurant. The food was nice and hot and full of flavor. The server was very well informed on the menu and helped with any questions that I had. Their version of butter chicken was delicious. The orange tini - I highly recommend.

Initially thought the portion size would be small but turns out they're very generous. Bit pricey than your regular Indian but the quality and taste of the curries is honestly good. Typically you would find that a lot of the Indian restaurant will use the same base curry for all the curries on the menu this was not the case. I wanted the goat curry but turns out their menu has recently been updated. Lady spoke with the chef and hey presto I got my goat curry! Other half did mention that the duck was dry and slightly overcooked for her liking. Honestly atmosphere is a vibe. Highly recommend.

Excellent Indian food - perfect balance of spice and sauce. Nothing was too heavy and the flavours were excellent. Not cheap, but good service and worth it

Decent Indian spot in St John’s Wood. Excellent Amritsari chicken tikka- super tender and juicy, that was the highlight of the meal. The chicken biryani was nice too, not exactly North Indian flavours though. The presentation was interesting - it came in a bamboo box and with Raita. Lotus stem chaat was average. They did add extra charge for little extra chutney which was rather annoying and disappointing for an elegant high end restaurant.

The food was so good, as far as Indian cuisines goes usually it can be quite heavy, but theirs for perfect. The flavours were amazing. Defo my fave place I’ve ever had Indian. Can’t wait to go back. The staff were also super attentive and friendly. Would definitely recommend x

You can’t book unless you’re prepared to give a credit card (to book this local restaurant) - which incurs a hefty £35 cancellation charge per head including reduction in numbers - if done less than 24 hours prior. For an early weekday slot for only 2 people - it felt a little OTT. When I questioned this, I was told it’s because - quote “how can we trust you not to come”. This was not a great start. The restaurant itself is very attractive and we felt optimistic on entering. Not so, when we saw the prices - £22 for a starter dish consisting of (only) 3 large prawns. Although perfectly cooked and delicious, we’d recently dined at the highly acclaimed and very expensive Zuma in Knightsbridge, and frankly their similar prawn dish was much better value. I felt Ritu was just too expensive for what we actually received. The drinks were pricey, our chicken curry was pleasant enough but missing white-meat . Our lamb curry was so tough and grisly/chewy throughout the whole dish - that we had to return it. Having had to remove indigestible pieces from our mouths - the waiter argued it was fine - although how he knew better than us was a mystery! The staff told us how busy the restaurant gets - yet it was almost empty when we left just after 8pm. We wanted to love it and make it our local Indian restaurant but found the expensive prices did not ensure consistency of quality or a reason to return. Pity

Such an extraordinary & delicious Indian gem 💎 will be back!

The food was delicious. They were a bit pushy about suggesting additional things to buy: starters, sides, more drinks, dessert. But otherwise they were very friendly. And the heated tent was great. Really nice place.

Wonderful food, beautifully presented and very tasty. We had a casual weekday dinner and loved our experience. The staff is very polite and friendly and the space is nice with a good location. Highly recommended!

Indian food with different taste...hospitality is very good, staff very courteous and atmosphere is amazing...

We went as a family to celebrate my birthday. Staff are really welcoming. We ordered several starters and everything was beautifully presented and lovely in taste. The staff were so polite, always smiling and helpful. The owner came over to wish me happy birthday which was nice. We really enjoyed the food and it was a lovely experience and evening.

Ritu Restaurant Indian Fine Dining Restaurant with Fabulous Terrace (Ideal for Summer Outdoors), a stone’s throw from the World Famous Abbey Studios, London NW8 0BH (U.K.) All of us 4 friends gathered at one of our friend’s houses, in St. John’s Wood, London for drinks, and after couple of drinks, we suddenly started having cravings for Exotic Indian Food, and that too, not very far away from where we were, and wanted to taste, Indian Street Food in Elegant Ambiance and Settings, and wanted to taste food, possibly from all the 6 Seasons of India (an impossible task for some, but, not for me). I, at once suggested Ritu Restaurant (as the name itself reminds us of unique geographical location of Indian subcontinent enjoying 6 Seasons in a year, Vasant Ritu (Spring), Grishma Ritu (Summer), Varsha Ritu (Monsoon), Sharad Ritu (Autumn), Hemant Ritu (Pre-Winter) and Shishir Ritu (Winter). I had been to Ritu Restaurant, couple of times, earlier with friends, and family, and once also met the Owner, Mr. Anubahav Srivastava’s Dad there, Mr.Pradeep Srivastava , who kindly spent some moments, with us, on our request to chat about this distinctively different restaurant which incidentally has food for all 6 Seasons of India. In India food plays an important role in giving the nutrition which the body needs during that particular season, and for maintaining the balance in terms of body heat, therefore, a wide variety of food for different seasons was created many centuries ago. This time we were fortunate to meet the Big Boss himself, who owns the Restaurant, Mr. Anubahav Srivastava, who briefly narrated the taste of most of the dishes, and explained some unique & distinctively new creation and introduction of a dish, recently introduced, especially for the Winter Season, called “Koyla Chicken” (Charcoal Chicken), warm as the name sounds, so does the dish generate warmth in the body and senses, with Charcoal Barbeque Flavour, and matching black colour! Being a vegetarian on Thursdays, I was unable to taste it, but all my friends loved it very much and said that, it was distinctively different than the norm, and definitely had that “Oomph”! We did experience the usual best services and efficiency, and were looked after by the General Manager, himself, Mr. Raghbir Sinha, who seemed like an Encyclopaedia of Indian Food, as he knew the background of all the dishes, with his qualification and past experience in the world of hospitality catering business internationally. The creativity, taste, presentation, and services when each and every dish was served was unique in character, which just tantalized our taste buds, which automatically triggered the mind with vibes of happiness. As the saying goes “The way to a man’s heart is through his stomach” All other dishes were excellent, especially Dal Tarka, butter chicken, etc. I would recommend each and every foodie living in London or visiting London to try this amazing experience in the world of culinary delights, to ascertain the facts, themselves.

We wanted to try Indian food in London and had a perfect experience here! The staff was very friendly and helpful especially when it comes to picking meals. The portions are bigger than expected and the food is delicious. I highly recommend Ritu and would definitely come back some time again!

Really didn’t know what to expect before discovering this wonderful restaurant last night. As over the years that particular spot was an upmarket Italian restaurant and then a Lebanese. Ritu has stunningly excellent food. Rich with complexities of Indian spice and flavours. Refined dishes that are beautifully made & presented. Simply delicious The service was warm and attentive. One point that’s always worth mentioning - that on this exceptionally freezing cold night, the restaurant was heated perfectly. Cannot wait to return

Loved the food 😋 and the service was excellent 👌 The service of the food was served with panache and flair making it an enjoyable experience 😋

a nice place. super nice people. sadly not a serious Indian chef in the place. though, given my experiences at other restaurants maybe this is on the top half of Indian restaurants in London.

great value on the cocktails, beers WAY too expensive. Likewise food a bit hit & miss, 3 of the four dishes were wondeful but the fourth lacked flavour & freshness.

Beryni lamb was not cooked well and their chefs insist to correct his mistake V.poor

Located on a quite road this is really a gem in Indian food,what an ambience with very nice Indian food efficient services,good bar collection

In a city like London, spoiler with great Indian restaurants, finding one that can still stand out positively is rare. Ritu achieves this with flying colors. Food is prepared from scratch, carefully and you can taste the difference. Generous portions. Finely balanced spices. True to the regional character of each dish. Pleasant outside terrace with heaters, plus bright indoors space. Stuff is very friendly and super helpful. We will return many times, with friends and family

I had my 25th birthday dinner at Ritu London and was very happy with how the staff accommodated all the different dietary requirements in my group. Furthermore they were very warm, welcoming and the owner personally came over to wish me a Happy Birthday. The food and drinks were tasty and presented very well. I highly recommend this restaurant for all occasions. My group and I had a wonderful time.

One of the best Indian restaurants in London. The team are great, very polite and welcoming, this neighbourhood restaurant serves very high quality, authentic Indian food, highly recommended.
