Rita's Bar & Kitchen

Popped in as we were walking past for a couple of cocktails with friends Ended up having some small plates to share. Incredible food Service impeccable, giving advice on drinks and if we had ordered enough food for the four of us. Decor great, atmosphere great….definitely gonna return for a Sunday roast

Me, my partner and two of our friends went for a Sunday roast recommend by a friend. I don’t really do reviews but had to and it was actually the best roast dinner we had ever had! Best food, best service and what a lovely place! We have booked for next Sunday and can’t wait! 10/10 and I’m recommending to all my friends and family so impressed thank you all.

I loved the vibe in this bar and all the staff were so friendly. Being from London I have my pic of some amazing places to drink as well as some amazing bars to hang out in. This was my first time at Rita’s in Southampton and it was just a brilliant night. It was nice to meet the owners who were very friendly and welcoming, the cocktails were amazing and a special shout out to Nelson, the bar manager; he now has pride and place of making the best chilli margarita that I have had in the UK. His cocktail making ability and his personality made the night a brilliant one. If you’re ever at Rita’s, ask for Nelson because he is the man!

Came here for the Queens Jubilee celebrations - 03/06/2022. The atmosphere was fantastic! We had the BBQ which was way too much food for 2 but was really tasty and the presentation was top notch. The staff were fantastic! We moved tables twice - once because we decided to eat so wanted a proper table and then it started to rain so we wanted to go inside. The staff were more than accommodating and even told us to leave everything and they'd bring it all inside for us which they did. We felt the service was better than some 5 star hotels. Very reasonably priced given the quality of the food, drinks and service. We'll definitely be going back!

I went to Rita's on a Sunday afternoon to have a roast and I can only say the most wonderful things! The meat (chicken) was so soft that almost melted in my mouth, the potatoes were the best I have ever had, the Yorkshire pudding was handmade and the Cauliflower cheese was so creamy and tasty. Finally the portions were just amazing! I struggled really hard to finish my food because it was so well served. The staff was respectful, caring and always checking if we needed anything. We had an amazing time and it was worth every penny! Well done to everyone!! ;) And thank you so much!

Cocktails !!! That's what you're coming here for. Immaculately made, eclectic yet go-well-together ingredients, chic presentation and absolutely delicious. They are £££ but worth it ! We had the bourbon (yum!) Ambience is very classy and matches the vine of the people in there - young and stylish. We only had the small plates - the truffle fries will surely be tried again ! Worth a stop in .

Had a blast and will definitely go again soon. The service was excellent and we really enjoyed the ambience. We had bao buns, flat iron steak, and chorizo croquettes. All was great but the truffle oil and parmesan chips were truly out of this world. Cocktails on point, had the Coleman and my friend an espresso martini. Huge huge plus for me, the open table booking system.
