The inside is dimly lit and has that gorgeous chandelier. There's bar seating, a few tables on the ground floor, and a few tables on a higher level.

I've heard so many mixed things that I have to say I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed every aspect of my experience. It kind of has dive bar vibes but the food and drink options are definitely on the elevated side. They open at 4 on Sundays and I got there around 4:15. It was already pretty busy (and by the time I was leaving, every single table and bar stool were occupied). They have standard booth seats along the windows, hightop tables in the middle and bar seating along the bar that curves along the back of the restaurant. I chose to sit at the bar since I was by myself. I was promptly greeted by the bartender. They don't hand you copies of the menu, you have to scan the QR code to access. It is easy to read and follow with sections for drinks, specials (this time they were Wicked themed as a nod to the show at the Benedum) and a sushi section. I ordered the street corn dip. The chips were a bit overcooked and the dip was just OK. I thought it was pricey for what you got. The star of my meal, though, was the patty melt. It had the burger, a bacon jam, caramelized onions and was absolutely delicious! It was served with fries. I considered ordering sushi but wasn't sure what to expect. The patrons sitting on either side of my ordered rolls and they were a nice size and looked delicious, so that is something I would consider ordering in the future. It was a place I'll likely be back to because of the proximity to the theater (although their prices definitely reflect that). Just note how crowded it always is and give yourself plenty of time if you plan on heading here for dinner before the show.

Whenever I tell people that it's basically a pub with great sushi they are truly befuddled but everything here works (and is extremely delicious) I've had numerous things from the menu but I always go back to the steak sandwich. There are a few staple drinks but I love to have a bar tender make whatever they're feeling. I've had some fun nights with complete strangers while watching Pen's games. This is the place to be.

We will definitely be back to try some of their food, but highly recommend for some good cocktails

Unfortunately, it felt very cramped and we really struggled to fit comfortably. We were told there weren't any other tables available, so we ended up leaving. We decided to give it another try and made reservations for inside seating next to the bar. This experience was much better. The drinks were very creative and tasted great. My main course -- the tenderloins -- was cooked well and overall very good, although it came with a berry jam that felt a little odd for the dish and wasn't really my favorite pairing. Overall, the cocktails and atmosphere inside made for a much better second experience.

The atmosphere alone is worth a visit. The drinks are definitely crafted with care and have a lot of complexity, but with only two bartenders working, it took quite a while to get ours. Not the place to go if you want quick service or are grabbing a drink before another event. My biggest downside is the price point--most cocktails are around $17. They're good, but at that price I can really only justify having one. Note: They do not have food, just snacks like peanuts. Overall, amazing ambiance and well-made drinks, just expect slower service and a higher bill.

Very impressed by their craftsmanship and experimental flavors. There's not many places in this area that even attempt to do that. I love the speakeasy vibe. Super cool entrance and fun comfortable lounge upstairs. It's a fantastic place to go as an intimate group. But it's kind of small to take a group of more than 4 friends. Cocktails were made surprisingly quick even on a busy night. Everything is just really great about this place. Except for maybe the price lol but at least you're getting what you pay for in a good way

This appears to be a duplicate for the business but, I'll bite and write another review here…read more Spencer & his team do it again and again every year. This Halloween pop-up bar is hands down one of the best in the country. Themed, creepy, spooky, & ghoulish craft cocktails beyond your wildest imagination. Always spot on. Always delicious. And as always, a portion of sales are donated locally. Serving cocktails & the community. Bar staff and mixologists are some of the best in the business. Service is always stellar. Always. A lot of the drinks come in super fun themed cups & glasses. Don't be a D & steal them. This is a small business giving back.

I have an end of October birthday so I'm a sucker for all things Halloween…read more This place is so much fun. Every square inch is covered theme Halloween/spooky decor. Thankfully nothing is overly gory or too creepy. To avoid a line, it is best to go right at opening or about an hour before it closes. There is a list of fun themed drinks served in quirky glasses that match the theme of the drink (a mummy, for example). I visited three times and tried a different drink each time. One thing is that they can (and often do) search your bag to make sure you don't steal the glassware. Sad that they need to so that, but I guess I understand why they need to check. If you are looking for a quirky, fun experience while downtown, definitely check it out.

I had to travel there for work. Lunch wasnt provided for us that day so we took matters into our own hands, Lol. Ritual House staff was extremely friendly and we joined the 5-10 minute wait list because we didnt have a reservation. We were seated within minutes. Our waiter was a young man who didnt miss a beat. We were greeted by him and he immediately took our deink orders. I opt for a ginger ale. For my lunch, I ordered the GREEK PANZANELLA with grilled chicken- garlic croutons, feta, cucumbers, olives, red onion, roasted heirloom tomatoes, red wine vinaigrette. $18. The chicken was tender and the salad was so good. I can see myself coming back here for sure. Check out these photos.

Okay, this place is so over-hyped. It's all style and no substance, as Paul Hollywood would say…read more The cocktails were good, I'll give them that. But the food and experience seemed like they prioritized the Instagrammability over actual quality. The bruleed oranges were... basically just cooked oranges. Burrata nothing to write home about. My miso black cod, it was almost like they ran out of whatever sauce they normally put on it and instead just drizzled teriyaki sauce from their salmon entree. I'm not exaggerating. Two others at our table ordered the same and were underwhelmed. Honestly, look at my photo in this review and tell me what on that plate is "black miso"??! The cookie table had some decent cookies (I can make better at home). The tiramisu was DRY (you're supposed to soak the ladyfingers!) and among the worst I've had. One plus I'll give them was that the strawberry salad was very interesting visually and quite tasty, though it needed about 4x more of the pretzel mixture to balance. This must be a birthday attraction too, because they were bringing out a dessert with cotton candy and a literal firework about every five minutes and it was so distracting and embarrassing. Cannot recommend coming here unless it's maybe for dessert and cocktails. It's just not worth the money.

They currently have some cocktail slushies on the menu for summertime. We got the painkiller - it's really good! Great for a warm day. They have a promo that they posted on IG but it's slightly misleading. It makes it seem like the first round ($12) will get you the cup in addition to your first round and you can get $5 refills thereafter. On the check though, there's a charge for the cup and each charge is also inflated ($5.20 for a refill, and $12 + some change for the first drink - I forget the cents, maybe $12.48). Not sure why they don't just keep the charges flat to match what they posted online. Good drink though!
