Fun and Trendy
Love the atmosphere, and who doesn't ... can't live with it or with out, the men are fam and you can't go anywhere with out a man buying you, well me a drink. ;)
Crowded, but Fun
Sometimes it is SO overcrowded, a couple of drinks can make it more acceptable... Bartenders can be a bit snooty, but the crowd is really fun, and the DJ's are the best. If you haven't been for happy hour, I totes recommend, especially when the deck is open!
Great neighborhood bar
Visited The Ritz the end of June 2008 and enjoyed the people. Bar tenders were friendly and poured healthy drinks (I may have gotten overserved- - oh well). Anyway, nice looking crowd and there seemed to be minimal attitude (if at all). I will definitely visit again.
Popular, convenient, and fun!
The Ritz has fun shows and parties every night of the week and usually gets packed on Friday and Saturdays with local celebs and Drag Race alumni hosting. Cazwell DJs on Thursdays, too. Also, check out the monthly 3rd Base Underwear Party. A fun, youngish crowd with elaborate themes and a sexy vibe. https://www.facebook.com/pages/3rd-Base-Underwear-Parties/1494379170780743
Great Happy Hour Bar
Met a friend for Happy Hour - the drinks were awesome, the service was great and the customers were friendly and talkative. Great place to relax after work or before you go out to eat.
