The friendly, art deco atmosphere of the Ritz Grill has been a longtime favorite of the downtown crowd.  The Ritz has been a Tejon Street hot spot for more than 15 years, and has gained notoriety for its food, cocktails, and live music.  The trendy bistro-style menu features pasta, steaks, seafood and California-style pizzas.  Large, unique salads, frozen martini glasses and Cajun-influenced recipes have become Ritz staples since the day the doors opened for business. The zesty Cajun chicken and shrimp pasta (which is always happily adapted for vegetarians) continues to be one of the signature entrees.  The New Orleans BBQ shrimp in a spicy beer sauce has become a new favorite for Ritz patrons.

The Joint is Jumpin'   -   Tried and true, the Ritz Grill still satisfies.
"Eating -- and drinking -- at the Ritz Grill are time-honored habits for most Colorado Springs downtowners. Even when the street scene surrounding it was a wasteland, the Ritz thrived. And amidst a constant influx of new restaurants, breweries, nightclubs and pizzerias over the past few years, the Ritz steadily remains the place to go when you want a good, reliable sip or a sympathetic sip. It's not the quietest place to go even on its most placid nights. But it is the place where everybody knows your name, the place where you can count on a wide variety of tasty food, reasonably priced and well prepared.

A review of the Ritz would not be complete without a tip of the hat to the outstanding servers. This downtown bar and grill is also a fine place for a family meal, especially on a Sunday evening when the bar is generally quiet. Rest assured your children will be treated like honored guests by the fine waitstaff."

The Independent, Appetite, by Kathryn Eastburn, February 22, 2001
"Maybe it's their sexy legs.  Maybe it's the way they smile as if they exist only to serve you.  The Bartenders and Servers at the Ritz are legendary, and they're what makes this downtown institution a favorite year after year.  Order a martini, sit back and enjoy the show."
