Second time we've been here, visits a year apart, service is good, it's one of those dark ass bars where the lights are dim af so get ready to squint, drinks always good with unique flavors that work well together, no flops, the milk punch is a MUST TRY, i PROMISE it's so good, and it comes in a little tea cup :,) overall very average food tho sonoran dog trio was good, but it's just three mini hot dogs, nothing special, you get what you're expecting. umami caesar salad with miso dressing had an overwhelming lemon flavor?? when lemon is not listed in the ingredients at all so idk where that was coming from, but honestly not a huge deal, a salad with lemon isn't an insane thing to make except for the fact it's so lemon-y there's no hint of savory or "umami" from the miso, it just ended up tasting like a lemon kale salad. miso mac with grilled chicken, we ordered the large portion, and isn't a very large portion at all. i'm pretty sure this is like a mini skillet like the ones you see at cracker barrel lol (pic below) portion size super small, the mac itself wasn't bad, i thought it was kinda flavorless, i think they use a lot more milder cheeses so it wasn't very cheesy? my date said it was good tho is idk just me i guess got the pho french dip last time and the sandwich itself was nothing special, but the broth was incredible, i wanted to drink the broth more than eat the sandwich, take that as you will read more

Little Rituals - Another great visit at Little Rituals! - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

I was in town for business and did my research and this spot had all the hype. The bartender who handed me the menu and provided recommendations was great. He then went off to spend my entire time there with a group who seemed to have previously worked there or were in the industry based off their comments. being beverage-less as I was, a bar-back, who disclosed it's his first day to which i congratulated, took my order. The drink was solid but not anything to write about. However I will write about this; As I decided it's not worth the lack of service, quality, and care the other patrons seemed to get in my stead- I asked to close my tab. He swiped my card and then shouted "insufficient funds!" across the entire bar for which I received multiple glances from other bar goers. I replied to the fraud security text from Chase which came through right after(reminder I'm traveling for business) and asked him to swipe again which then processed maybe 10 seconds after his first attempt. Embarrassed and disappointed, I went home. Not the kind of service or unprofessionalism you'd expect from one of the "Worlds Top 50 best hotel bars" read more

Sydney and Frank are incredibly fun to chat and hang out with. My wife and I were able to make it out on a week day and we had a ton of fun hanging at the bar.

I love this place, and it always feels like a special occasion. I have been during the holiday popup, which is always fun, and just on a random weeknight where we sat at the bar and had the best service ever. They give a special shot for your birthday, and they are always really good. The cocktails are unique and complex, and the menu is so robust that it is hard to decide what to have. The food is also surprisingly good. Even something as simple as their bread and butter dish is really satisfying. The ambiance is spot on, especially considering it is in a slightly strange location. This is one of my go-tos when I have friends in town because it is a top quality cocktail experience. read more

Very cute fourth floor cocktail bar in downtown Phoenix. The aesthetic gives 1900 speakeasy. The service was great, we had a party of 6 which was the limit we could do on our reservation. The coconut rice was freaking delicious under the chicken meatballs. Bill was about $250 with the 22% auto gratuity (parties over 5) for 9/10 drinks and the two food items. Would go back even just for the bush doctor drink by itself. If you can resist and let it sit, the cinnamon stick infuses the drink even more. Such an elevated experience. read more

Overrated, staff was friendly but a bit forceful/uppity, too loud, dark, & expensive, long wait for everything, and we needed a reservation so we thought it was gonna be good. When I politely told them I didn't want a drink- they were very pushy and told me they would give me more time to look again and to keep the drink menu. And they gave me a weird look & comment when I said no thank you again. Food was mid, very sweet, "fusion-food", smokey/funky tasting. this was my birthday dinner and out-of-state vacation so we wanted to stay close to the hotel. And I was hoping for a birthday dessert freebie but was kinda disappointed that I was given a small shot glass of lemonade ("virgin shot") instead. it was free, but eh... for how mediocre everything else was and how much we paid... read more

Overall a cute cocktail bar located inside the Courtyard Marriott on the fourth floor. Made a Saturday reservation with a friend for their Christmas pop up. The holiday drinks are unique and each priced at about $18. They were overall good and different from what you would typically see on a menu. For food, we ordered the chicken sandwich and coconut curry mussels. The coconut curry mussels were great in flavor but there wasn't much curry in the dish and I would have appreciated a slightly larger portion for the price --it is mostly shell. The chicken sandwich was also on the pricier side. read more

Great experience here. Our waitress was very friendly and made the experience 10x better. Highly recommended.

Stayed at the Courtyard Marriot which this bar is attached to this hotel. Which is the reason I found out about it. Decided to make a pit stop before heading to PHX Arena for a concert. Didn't bother to get a table since I was only going to be there for a bit. So sat at the bar and this was during the Xmas season, so everything was decorated nicely set up. The drink is got was a coconut flavor on a gremlin cup. Bartender was attentive and the whole vibe in there was nice, will definitely come to this little bar whenever I'm in town. read more

We stopped by for cocktails and a quick bite to eat while we were waiting for our friends to meet us downtown. We didn't have reservations but we able to get a seat at the bar pretty quickly on a Thursday night. The bar had a fun vibe and the bartenders were amazing. This place is a gem. I had never heard of it before my wife's friend suggested that we meet there before heading out. The cocktails were probably some of the best that I have ever had. The mussels that we ordered were delicious. I will definitely be going back. read more

I was so excited to finally have the opportunity to come here, as I've heard nothing but awesome things about this place. This upstairs bar overlooks downtown Phoenix and has super fun, bright decor. There isn't really parking, so you'll have to find a spot on the street or in a garage. Reservations are recommended! My friends and I ordered the Hurricane Frites which were absolutely incredible!!! I would order this every time!!!! We only had time for one drink and unfortunately I don't remember the name of the cocktail I ordered. However, I do know that it had mezcal in it and was pretty good! I cannot wait to come back here and try more of their cocktails! read more

I was on the hunt for some holiday themed bars and drinks so when I saw that Little Rituals had just that I was excited because I've been wanting to go there. So we went on Saturday around 9 and had a rude awakening because we needed a reservation or to join the waitlist which was an hour long plus the line to even join waitlist, but the hostess was very sweet and explained the waitlist and added my party of 2 it. While waiting to be texted it was our time, we just people watched! But not too long like we were expecting maybe 20 min we were texted it was our turn to be seated! Once seated we enjoyed all of their movie themed decorations which pictures really don't do justice and the view from our table was amazing to see the downtown area! We ordered 2 specialty holiday drinks that we discussed with our server Ryan who was also great and explained all the deco and how it was placed in the bar. Our drinks were both tasty and light as one would think holiday drinks are heavy but not these. My time at Little Rituals was awesome and I will definitely be back to try some food and more drinks! read more

I love new experiences. Little Rituals isn't a standard hotel bar. There's so many unique food and drink items on the menu and it might take a few trips to try them all. And the ambiance is something else. It's manages to feel like an escape from Arizona while also managing to honor Arizona icons. read more

My new favorite cocktail bar in Phoenix, and on the 4th floor of a courtyard Marriott ....to funny. Approached it a bit like a speakeasy. The el Guapo might be the best drink I have ever had in my life. They make all their mixers and fusions in house and the bartenders are second to none. Can't wait to go back! read more

Located on the 4th floor of the Downtown Marriott, hidden behind a Teal velvet curtain lies this gem. Love me a cocktail bar that takes pride and makes extra effort! Super cool and sexy interior that would be a great date spot! Large enough bar and also some lounge areas! Great upscale bottle selection on the back bar and a Groovy Little Cocktail menu! My server Frank stirred me up a Ponzi Scheme that was slightly bitter and deep with intense flavors! Then we discussed Whiskey at length and he recommended Brenne a French Single Malt. EXCELLENT! Made conversations with other bar patrons and relaxed away my work/travel day! Mission Accomplished!!! read more

I finally had the chance to try the highly praised cocktail bar in Downtown Phoenix! Maybe because my expectations were so high, but I did not think this exceeds others in the area. The menu was extensive and there was something present for all flavor profiles. I had the conversation starter, which was a fruity and refreshing drink. For my second drink, they made me one based on what I liked which ended up being similar to a pornstar martini. We also got the Hurricane Fries which really hit the spot. The fries were topped with chillies, green onion and cheese. I think the drinks were good for sure, but nothing unique. I think what makes this place stand out though is the ambiance. It is at the top floor of a hotel with all glass windows and this beaded curtain to the entrance. Unfortunately the view we got from the window was just a parking lot, but this place is definitely a hit during sunset. It is a cool place to check out, but I do not think they are the best drinks in the Phoenix area, sorry :/ read more

Such a cool bar! It's inside a hotel on the fourth floor. There is great mood lighting and the seats are comfy. The server was so knowledgeable and very nice!! Gave great cocktail recommendations. Speaking of the cocktails, the menu is a book and there are pictures of the drinks, which I love so much. We love good visuals. I got the CREAM which has a very complex flavor profile, strong green apple notes. There's wasabi in it, I mean how cool. And I couldn't taste spiciness in a good way. Very interesting drink, tasted different every time I had it. My boyfriend had the Breakfast of Champions, which came with a barley cereal bar. He said the cereal bar was tasty, the drink wasn't as sweet as he wanted and it was very strong but overall he liked it. He loved the lamb meatballs, gave them a 10/10. My second drink was the Conversation Starter, which I liked better than my first drink. Cute glass. Strawberry lemonade vibes but elevated. The drinks are pretty strong! Our reservation time got extended which was nice of the server to do for us. read more

Who knew that the in-house "bar" tucked away in the cut could be so cool! I love, love, love this spot! The cocktails were 10 out of 10! I didn't see anything on the menu that "tickled my fancy," but when I asked the mixologist if he could make me an "Aviation" he said, "yes, absolutely!" I knew that we were "cooking with fish grease" (as we say in the south and that's a very good thing)! My cocktail was top tier delicious! I loved that you could make reservations and there was an element of mystery exclusivity with this place. It had a "speakeasy" vibe! Very lowkey, sexy, and cool! I would highly recommend and will most definitely be back the next time I'm in town! read more

This cocktail bar is located on the fourth floor of the Residence Inn in Downtown PHX. We came here with a large party after going to an event in Downtown PHX. It was very convenient to get a table. You can add yourself to a waitlist before arriving. We did not have any issues getting a table because we utilized their waitlist. Before being seated, the hostess informed us of a 22% gratuity added for large parties. There are multiple seating areas with booths, tables, bar and lounge seating. We sat at the lounge area and it was fairly spacious for 8 people, although it seats 6-7 people better. The drinks were very good. Everyone liked what they ordered. My husband got an espresso martini and said he enjoyed it, but has had better. He also ordered a martini and the Spanish Dagger. I liked both drinks I ordered. Vengeance & Fashion had floral notes and was creamy with the foam. Chaotic Good had a smokey flavor that was balanced from the tropical fruits. There are many unique ingredients in all their cocktails. The server was very kind and helpful, but she didn't check on us as often as I would have thought considering the gratuity was 22%. Overall this spot is a nice option of cocktails if you're in the area. read more

Definitely a great bar! I had done some research prior to my visit to town, and wanted to make some time to visit this place. This bar is located inside Courtyard Mariott on the 4th floor of the hotel. Hostess stand is just to to the right as you exit the elevator. They even have a seating area next to the hostess stand if you aren't able to get in immediately. I came to visit late afternoon. And it was easy to get in. Not crowded. It has various seating options, a lounge area, bar seating, and 4 top tables. I sat at the bar and was even able to plug up my phone for a while, very convenient for patrons! Thank you! The picture book menu is probably my favorite part about the bar, along with there origin story. Very thoughtful and creative people put this bar together and it shows. The menu lists the exact ingredients and a very clear description of each of the drinks to help understand what you want. The bartenders really are great at helping explain and narrow down your choice, based on spirits that you enjoy to find the right cocktail just for you. They do a have a small HH menu from 5p to 6p, including classic cocktails for $12. I started with Tom Collins, on HH. Drinks- next I got the Vengence & Fashion $16. I liked it, definitely full-bodied with depth from the beets and not sweet, but easy to drink. Next, I got probably their most popular cocktail Big City Nights, which is a light sour, I also liked. Food- they were out of the HH tacos, and I was tempted to get the HH wings (hot). But after discussion with the beautiful bartender, I went with the grilled cheese. Anytime I see grilled cheese on the menu I have to get it. It's a massive sandwhich, comes on sourdough bread, and it has grilled veggies in addition to the cheese. Also comes with a side salad, which was actually a large salad that was dressed very well, didn't need to add anything to it. But you can also get fries for an upcharge of $4. I was full by the time I left. Service- was great, bartenders were friendly enough. If you find yourself downtown and in need of a drink, worth checking out. read more

First let me start by saying make reservations and ask for a seat by the window if you can; that's exactly what my date did. Love a man that does not hesitate when making reservations and this was a last minute date. It was our second stop for the night after Pigtails. I will say the night definitely got better and I loved Pigtails. I was not impressed by the entrance being by the hotel pool since it was a family pool, it was kind of a vibe killer watching all the peeps walking past you to get there. They need a better location in the hotel . Let's keep it sexy! lol.. The menus are the cutest., with vivid description of their selection of cocktails. I had the watermelon sundae and I think my date had big city nights. I was impressed by the aesthetic of his drink over mine but my drink was delicious. I love everything watermelon. We tried something else but it was a long night so I forgot which one. We had the tacos; carne asada and chicken. My chicken tacos were the best. Will definitely be back for more, Service was elegant. Can't remember our servers name but I loved his personality! This place is sexy , trendy , dimly lit, and a must visit for a date night or cute ,girls pre game night, We ended out night by stopping by Copper blues for a bit.. and with a smile on my face! Loved Little Rituals! read more

The cocktail menu is well versed, so there's a beverage for everyone and anyone to enjoy! Not to mention, a great selection of food to choose from. My boyfriend and I had booth seating (one side is the booth, the other side of the table is a chair). The drinks were strong, but so delicious. They were very well made. I tried to ask for a customized cocktail from the menu, but the bartender could not do it (which was not a problem at all!!) So my boyfriend and I enjoyed our experience at Little Rituals so much, we had to do it again. The second time we went, we made it a point to ask for window seating. We were 15 minutes early to our reservation so we were seated at the half booth/half chair table again, but 10-15 minutes later, I noticed the pair at the window seating were leaving and asked the host if we could snag that table since we requested for it in the reservation. He was the sweetest, most accommodating person. He cleaned the table up and moved us on over, and we were so thrilled! This time we ordered the hurricane fries to share, which is highly recommend. The fries were crispy, and the flavors were so balanced. The ponzu ketchup and truffle aioli elevated the fries to the next level, also! Once again, we knew we'd love the drinks, and we very much did. My boyfriend even ordered the same drink for both rounds, which he had ordered the last time we went ("In Love with the Cocoa"). I wanted the "Golden Sgroppino" but it was unfortunately unavailable. So I asked for a sweet drink and was surprised with a Pornstar Martini. It had a fresh passionfruit in it and it was one of the best martinis I've ever had. Our waitress was a lady with short hair, and she was great. She knew the menu like the back of her hand and she was genuinely had great energy. She remembered us on our second visit, which added that personable touch that I loved. I loved her extra because I wanted to pay for the bill the second time, so I pretended to go to the bathroom when I saw her near the bar and I asked if I could sneakily pay and she was all for it. read more

I stopped into Little Rituals after visiting another cocktail bar in the area. It was a great lounge to stop into for our bar crawl night. They have a great view of downtown Phoenix. It's a busy spot and another popular lounge in downtown Phoenix so reservations are definitely recommended. We were seated at a nice table by the window so we had a nice view of the city. The crowd here is definitely a mix of everyone so it's a good spot to people watch too. The server we had was great. She was really friendly and made excellent suggestions of what to order. They have a nice menu of food as well, so you could definitely order some plates to share with your group or entrees for dinner with your craft cocktails. One of their signature cocktails is a martini with an edible image of things to do in Phoenix. One of my friends ordered it and enjoyed it. We all enjoyed our drinks. Two of us ordered a seasonal cocktail that was a spiked hot cocoa which was great for the cold weather. We didn't try any food on this visit but the menu looks really good so I'll definitely return to try some of their food offerings. Whether you're visiting or a local, Little Rituals should be on your list of must try cocktail lounges. read more

Haven't been to Little Rituals in a minute so we decided to come by last Saturday night to enjoy the Holiday festivities. The entire bar was decorated with Christmas theme, so adorable. The drinks we ordered were all so delightful. We ordered shot in the dark and that was fruity and festive! The food here was good too, specifically the hurricane fries and the ube cinnamon roll. I do believe that the ube cinnamon roll is for a limited time. It came out baked fresh. Our server was great and gave us recommendations. The bar is located in a hotel in the 4th floor. read more

Often at nice bars when they have a wide selection of drinks, some can have the tendency of being not flavorful or even more so "watered" down but these were perfect!

This is the ONLY bar in the Courtyard hotel in downtown Phnx...it's dark, gothic, and SUPER strange..doesn't open to 5pm and it doesn't have a great variety of food for people who want simple food options. And forget it if you don't have reservations. Went on a Saturday right when they opened only had a party of 4 and was told the only seats were at the bar. I asked for a table as I have a bad back. They made us wait and as we were waiting, a party of 6 walked in, no reservations, and were seated immediately in a great table location overlooking the city! When we were finally seated it felt like we were bothering the hostess...she gave us a table in the middle of the dining room...put the menus down, didn't say a word and walked away. The waiter came over and explained the menu to everyone and asked what we wanted to drink and when he got to me, I said I would like a large glass of water w/ a straw. He began to pour water in the small DIRTY glass on the table and I said, could I please get a big glass of water with a straw and he said VERY RUDELY, "YOU CAN START WITH THIS"... When the waitress came back with my co workers drink she spilled a good portion on the table and barely apologized. Didn't offer to fill it back up and he noticed..it's a margarita that didn't even have any salt...so if you order a margarita, make sure you ASK FOR SALT if you want it! And I ordered a Shirley Temple (I don't drink), asked for EXTRA cherries....you can see from my attached photo, that 1) they didn't listen to me 2) what they consider EXTRA cherries....... Really not impressed with the options, the service or the ambience of this place unless you like dark, dirty and strange food choices....knowing the Marriott brand, I would have thought a brighter, happier, spunky place.... read more
