Ritz

The Ritz is a complete waste of time. NONE of the employees there, especially the tall blonde waitress & the male bartender have ANY respect for anyone that walks through that door. They are rude & obnoxious & should not even be employees anywhere. The place smells like smoke & is way to small to even enjoy. The karaoke part they do on weekends is just horriffic to listen to. You cant even sit there and listen it is so bad. I don‘t think there is ANY reason at all anyone should go to the Ritz unless they like the stuckup selfish group of people that care for nothing but themselves. I have been to a lot of other bars in that area, even the Regal Beagle beats them & that does nt take much

The Ritz is always a great time! They have great service and who can beat the FISHBOWLS that you get to keep when your done with them! Amazing time!

Awesome food, great bands, super fun! This is truly one of the best places to eat and party on the Lake

The fries were the best fries I have ever had!!!!! They also had really good cheeseburgers too!! The server was very rude tho!

yeah they were good, but i was there over the fourth. i live in estherville, i think that band was also from sioux city, going nowhere.
they are coming back first week of august too. can‘t wait till they come back, i‘ve seen bands with girls before, like stealing mercury, but GN simply rocked, she‘s the best girl singer i‘ve seen and the best band i‘ve seen all year, they were real tight, the drummer was awesome, they had so much fun, and it showed. the ritz is always fun and a great place during the summer

I was there, that band was called Stealing Mercury, and they are scheduled to play there again on the weekend of July 20-21 ! Their website is www.stealingmercury.com, and their myspace page is http://www.myspace.com/stealingmercury. The bar was kinda dirty, but it‘s nice right on the lake, and the band was great!

I was there the weekend of June 8-9 the band there was awesome I wish I knew the name all I know is they were from Sioux City totally worth going for. As far as the food the Tai Pizza is to die forl

Awesome view, food, and staff!! Go once and you will definitely go back!!

You guys are all crazy! Do don‘t go to the Ritz for fancy dining, you go to the Ritz for some great pizza and beers or maybe even a fish bowl off the boat. Is it loud? I sure hope so. That is what a bar is supposed to be. As for expensive. No way. It is priced at "bar" prices. Come on, give it a break and relax. You are on vacation!!

What happened to you Ritz? You used to be so fun, and have now turned sleezy....why? It‘s sad that you waste such a great location in the Lakes area.

Great Pizza!-but this place gets to loud during the summer with the music!! and I can hear all the way up to my trailer!!!-Rude

A very casual place to get a bite to eat - don‘t go there if you are in a hurry - food was good but wait staff incoherent and impolite, kinda like they just arrived from some other planet. (ok, drunk) To be fair, it is late in the summer and they probably aren‘t thinking about serving more alcohol, just want to get back to school to drink more alcohol.

How long is reasonable to wait for service? Took 20 minutes to get our first round of drinks and more than 90 minutes to get the over priced food.

Go there, and you will come back again. The best pizza in town. There are lots of people, the deck is right on the water and the view is the best. The women are hot, all wearing swimsuits on a hot summer day, with bands on the deck. You will never forget a 4th of July at this place!

the fish bowls are TINY and they are very EXPENSIVE
