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. " |

"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." |
