Rutba is described as a cozy, vibrant Indian restaurant with a warm plant-filled ambiance and a welcoming vibe. The food is consistently flavorful and varied, with standout dishes like burrata butter chicken, dal makhani, paneer do pyaza, fish pomfret, and samosa chaat. Portions are generous and prices are seen as good value, making it easy to try a range of dishes. Service is often praised as friendly and attentive, with many mentions of helpful staff and a lively, welcoming atmosphere.

Inspite of the Chaos of a holiday night, we absolutely loved the service, food & atmosphere here.. The person who took our order was honest about what would taste good & what would be the best for us. The wonderful ladies there were patient, kind & honest about wait times setting the right expectations... The food was delicious. We had rice, dal tadka, chicken tikka masala & lamb Biriyani. The Biriyani was okayish. But everything else was amazing.

?'What an impressive meal at Rutba! Honestly, I was blown away by the presentation-every single plate was absolutely beautiful, looking like something you'd see in a magazine.

?The food was rich, maybe even a little heavy, but in the best way possible. Those curries (mewa kofta & murgh makhni andaz) were incredibly decadent & creamy, perfect for tearing apart some fresh naan & dipping. The appetizers were fun, especially the Pani Puri. & dessert (rasmalai très leches & gulab jamun with ice cream) was the perfect, elegant finish.
?If you're looking for high-end, gorgeous Indian food that's packed with flavor, this is definitely the spot. Go hungry!'

had the pleasure of dining at Rutba Restaurant recently, & I ordered the thali - it was fantastic! The portion size was generous, & the variety of dishes made it a delightful experience. Each dish was full of flavor, & you could really tell that a lot of thought went into the preparation.
The service was exceptional, thanks to the wonderful team of super ladies running the restaurant. They were so accommodating & made us feel right at home. Huge shoutout to the person who trained them because the level of service was top-notch. Nandita, in particular, was incredible - she answered all our questions & made sure we were well taken care of throughout our visit.
A nice perk of visiting on a Friday evening is the live gig by a local singer. It really added to the atmosphere & made the experience even more memorable.
I absolutely recommend Rutba to anyone looking for great food & even better service. Thanks again, Nandita, for making our visit so special!

We were travelling so we decided to visit this place. In my town we also have a new restaurant with same name so we thought that this is a older place & expanded in my town. It was not the case.
This place has two menus diff for summer & winter. Somehow website has only summer menu. Many dishes are not included.
Palak Paneer & Paneer Tikka Masala were not on menu. When requested they were willing to make it though. Also we requested Paneer Tikka Masala but based on the served vegetable it was kadai Paneer. Paneer had no coating & was not placed in tandoor. Kadai Paneer was good in taste though. Dal Rutba was almost Dal Makhani. It had a good flavours.
Service was good. Food was good. Harman was very good.
