    Espresso martini

    Service was amazing! Our hostess Liz was so kind and helpful. She time pictures of us after our stay and even did different angles and lighting The bartender Sydney, who was also our server since we sat at the bar, was efficient friendly and incredibly talented. I love sitting at the bar because visiting with the bartender is always interesting and informative. The food was delicious the drinks were incredible the vibe was fun and classy all at the same time. Can't wait to return.

    Celebrated my birthday here with two girlfriends, and Little Rituals was perfect. The atmosphere is dark, intimate, and beautifully designed perfect for a night out. The cocktails were outstanding (I'll add photos because I can't remember the names), and the mac & cheese with chicken was easily my favorite dish of the night. We also shared the hummus platter, and my friends enjoyed their virgin piña coladas. What really made the experience was our server. As soon as he found out it was my birthday, he genuinely celebrated with us. The personalized birthday card signed by the staff and the birthday shot with a candle were such thoughtful touches that made the night feel special. My only disappointment came afterward. I called hoping to find out my server's name so I could give him the recognition he deserved. I called a couple of times, left a voicemail, and only received a text saying, "Maybe it was Ryan." Considering there was only one male server working that floor that night, (7/19) I was surprised no one could simply confirm who it was. That was a little disappointing. Other than. . . I'll definitely be back for the cocktails, the mac & cheese, and the incredible hospitality.

    Little Ritual is a chic bar in a hotel. It was super easy to find, but parking can be expensive in downtown especially during a busy night. We had made reservations prior to coming, so minimal wait times. We got the Mediterranean board, boa buns, Korean bbq salmon, and carne asada Katu. The bbq salmon was a little dry, they need more bbq sauce for the amount of sauce provided. The carne asada Katu was a delicious. I got the cartographer for my drink based on the waiter recommendation, which was a great choice. They also have non alcoholic option which we got, the mango slushy drink was delicious. Definitely a great bar which good food options, cute views and vibes.

    Little Rituals has a cosmopolitan vibe I wasn't expecting in a hotel bar. From the moody tones to glamourous lighting and city views, it's a fun place to have a craft cocktail, nosh, and wile away happy hour. Reservations are recommended (and be sure to take your ID no matter your age -- had to head back to the room for mine). A great way to enjoy a relaxing evening with fantastic service and comfortable seating.

    Me and my and best friend went here to celebrate us just being us ! We got bao buns and a Mediterranean board ! The boa buns were very spicy and the hummus was very lemony . We also got espresso martinis that were good. Waiter was very nice as well and accommodating would definitely go back. I also have made reservations ahead of time and ask for window seating and I got a window!!

    Really great service and drinks. The atmosphere is great no matter where you sit. The tiny dancer and new jack city were both very good. We will definitely be back!

    Little Rituals is tucked away on the 4th floor of the Courtyard Marriott, next door to the Mortgage Matchup Center, and directly across from the Barrister's Building (which was used in the opening scene of Pyscho). Its food menu has an Asian flare to it (we HIGHLY recommend the meatballs and the hurricane fries) and the cocktail menu is unlike anything I have ever seen before, which is why they have won so many awards! We ordered a couple of different drinks but the winner, by far, was the "Backseat Driver". Make sure to book a reservation or get there early as it fills up quick!

    This was a fun little surprise! My friends and I just wanted to grab a drink after a long day of travel, and this was the bar at the hotel. This place had VIBES. We were very comfortably dressed, and no one looked sideways at us, but there were definitely people dressed to the nines! There was a party of women next to us, that were celebrating a birthday. We obliged them by taking their pictures all over the instagramable bar. Ryan was our waiter, and he is tops. Made some really good recommendations and was welcoming and attentive. I was just there for the drinks and enjoyed a lovely glass (or two) of wine, but my friends were feeling more adventurous and ordered some of their inventive cocktails. Including a couple of "Shot in the Dark" which could be ANYTHING. Also a burger was ordered and then brought up repeatedly for the next two days. According to him, it was possibly the best burger he had ever had. His face lit up at first bite. The menu is a mishmash of interesting options and the whole experience was not what we anticipated. In the best way.

    After a day of proving I'm a functional member of society to a judge who looked like he'd rather be anywhere else, I headed to Little Rituals to prove I am, in fact, a hot mess. If the DA wants to prove I'm unstable, they should just show the security footage of me trying to look "composed" while accidentally inhaling the tajín rim on my drink and coughing like a Victorian orphan. The Final Sentence: I've been judged by the state all afternoon, so it was actually refreshing to be judged by a bartender who clearly knows I'm using "celebratory drinks" as a cover for "I forgot what sunlight looks like."

    Came for "just one drink," stayed way longer than planned -- that should tell you everything. This place is one of those rare Phoenix staples that actually lives up to the hype. Tucked inside a downtown hotel, it somehow manages to feel both exclusive and electric at the same time. Even on a random weeknight, don't be surprised if there's a wait -- and honestly, it's worth it. The cocktails are the headline act. Not just good -- memorable. Every drink feels intentional, from the flavor balance to the presentation (which borders on theatrical in the best way). You'll see smoke, glassware you've never held before, and details that make you pause before the first sip. The vibe is dialed in. Dim, stylish, just loud enough, with a crowd that's clearly here for the experience. It's the kind of place where everything -- lighting, music, decor -- feels curated without trying too hard. Yes, it's buzzy. Yes, it's a scene. But it earns it.

    Very cute upscale spot!! Love the decor and love the idea that it's located in the hotel area. I will say parking is awful(downtown) and they partner with LAZ but on weekends the flat rate was 50 bucks which is crazy so think about parking or uber if you can. Anywaayyy on to the good stuff, you walk into the hotel lobby and little rituals is on the 4th floor. When you walk in it's like being transported to another dimension. They have seats overlooking the city or couches for large groups and one other section. We have the chicken boa which I did not like the taste but the mediterrian board babyyy, you have to try it. Hummus on point and so was the feta. My friends got actual food rice and salmon and rice and beef which were not to bad. I just had a sample. I enjoyed my drink which was sweeter like i like it: reality check. Our server was great,very attentive and provided good drink recs.

    Lovely menu!

    My friend and I have never been to little rituals before but decided to come for a couple drinks before meeting our friend group for a birthday celebration. The reservation portion was easy and we arrived about 5 minutes late due to our uber taking the wrong turn. When we walked through the hotel lobby we were greeted by the front staff which was great and then took the elevator to the 5th floor. I requested seats at reservation to be by the window as it said it has a good view of phoenix. Since it was just the 4th floor, the view was ok but not spectacular as if you were on a rooftop bar. However, the space we got was private and comfortable which was great. Next time we will sit by the bar cause the vibes were more fun there it looked like. Our server was really nice and knew the menu very well. If you are a vodka drinker, there are not a lot of vodka drinks on the menu but you are allowed to request different drinks not on the menu like a porn star martini or a vodka soda. The only reason I gave this a 4 star instead of 5 is because there was a drink I wanted to get and it had gin and vodka. I asked if they could just not add the gin but she refused. This made me feel like these drinks are pre-made and not fresh because not adding gin should be easy. I understand that the drink recipe calls for it and could make the drink taste different but that should still be the client's choice. However, all in all a good experience. We also tried their Jell-O shots which were huge hahahaha

    Want a fun night out? Need a refresh on drinks and food? Well this place will hit all of those notes! Frank and his team did an amazing job! We were very lucky as we got the last night of their holiday menu. From apple pie and carrot cake inspired drinks to Asian infused foods! The whole bar was decorated for the holidays and had so many movie references. Then the holiday drinks were on point! Apple pie, carrot cake, and pumpkin flavors what more could you ask for! Each drink was the perfect balance of flavor and alcohol. We happened to have Frank, the head bartender, serve us and his professionalism and chill entry was a pleasure! He was so nice and friendly and loved discussing his drinks and ideas. I loved the Asian inspired/infused foods. The Mac and cheese with miso was my favorite thing on the menu! The next best item was the pho French dip. The dipping sauce was some of the best pho I have had! This place is a great stop to celebrate or have a night out! Can't wait to come back.

    Is it 21+ only?

    Yep. They require you to show ID

    Is the kitchen open late on Saturdays with full menu?

    Yes! Our kitchen is open with full menu until midnight on Fridays and Saturdays!

    Any way to avoid the $20 parking?

    Google other parking. Sometimes the lot directly across the street has parking but it's still close to $20 for years there hasn't been anything lower then $20 in that area.

    Do you guys have a reggae night?

    Sorry, no themed musical nights at this time.

    How about kids to grab a bite?

    Hi there! Unfortunately we are a 21+ establishment only, as we are primarily a cocktail bar.

    For a party of 20, I would like to buy my group their first drink? How is that handled and what is the average price for one drink? What would the setup be for 20 -25 people? Do you have any entertainment, if so when? Thank you!

    Hi there! We are not currently able to accommodate groups of that size (25). We can accommodate groups of up to 20 at a future date, and it would need to be confirmed by emailing events@littleritualsbar.com.… 

    Is there Happy Hour?

    They do have some specials but not a bar for a traditional Happy Hour

Carry On actually called me to confirm our "tickets," which I thought was really cute. The whole experience kind of started a couple of days before our actual "departure time." They also reminded us to park in the Renaissance Square parking garage under Wren & Wolf, and they were able to validate our parking for three hours. We had to go to Wren & Wolf first to pick up our Carry On tickets. We got there early, and they let us relax in their couch area while we waited for our departure time. The walk from the Renaissance Square parking garage to Wren & Wolf was easy. You just follow the signs, and the whole walk is inside the building, which was perfect because it was so hot outside. While we were waiting, we could order drinks and chill, just like being in an airport lounge. When it was time for departure, we walked outside the building, and Carry On was right around the corner. You won't miss it because you'll see the Carry On Air flight schedule above the gate door. Right on time, we were greeted by a friendly flight attendant. Once we walked into the cabin, it really felt like we were inside a first-class flight lounge. Our flight attendant served us drinks right after we sat down, and we also ordered more cocktails and snacks from their menu. The captain spoke to us over the speaker, just like on a real flight. As we took off, we could even feel the seats moving. Looking out the "window," we saw buildings, clouds surrounding us, and even experienced turbulence I'm not going to tell you too much because I don't want to ruin the experience. I'll let you try it for yourself. I think it's definitely worth giving it a try. At least for us, we loved it.

It was busy, but not packed, which made the service stand out more than it should have. I had to ask for water twice, never got a refill, and overall felt largely ignored--minimal eye contact, no real warmth, just an impersonal feel that didn't match the space. It felt like a place that may be a bit of a victim of its own success--popularity has grown, but delivery hasn't fully kept pace. Part of the appeal here is the permanent taco truck outside, which I know from past visits is excellent, and I love the truck's outspoken, unapologetic support for immigrants. That said, the cocktail itself was excellent. I was specifically looking for a coffee-based drink before heading to another event, and the Cambures al Estilo Foster delivered on flavor. It was tiny, though--served in a small stemmed glass, gone in a few sips. It did the job, but some may find the portion underwhelming for the price. No major complaints, but nothing pulling me back either. I'm adding a fourth star on a bit of a hunch--I'd like to think they can dial it back in if I return.

But, if you're looking for a really cool bar, KWSC is for you. I stopped by on a week day evening around 8:30 p.m. Located in Roosevelt Row, while there isn't parking, I found free parking on the street a few minutes away on foot. Ambiance (4.5/5): My type of spot. Dimly lit with a speakeasy vibe. There are eight or so seats at the bar, and the rest of your seating options consist of comfortable chairs and sofas. You'll see a lot of photos of people's bums on the walls lol. This is indeed part of the appeal. For free, if you would like, they will take a polaroid of your butt and memorialize you eternally on the walls. While I didn't do that, if that's up your alley, go for it. Service (2/5): This is the main area of improvement. After being seated, I was greeted promptly and got my first cocktail promptly. From there, things fell apart. I had to grab the bartender's attention to order my second drink and to close out. It was a week day and they weren't busy. And there were two bartenders. A lack of attentiveness. When I closed out, I noticed that the cocktails were both $2 more expensive than what was listed on the menu. When I inquired, I was told that the menus were outdated... umm what? If you're not going to re-print your menus, give people a heads-up when they arrive. I understand that most people won't notice, but this is deception. Food (N/A): I was on a liquid diet. If you're trying to eat here, all they have is snacks. The menu doesn't specify but I'm thinking it's probably chips or somethign like that. Drinks (4/5): A lengthy, and interesting, cocktail list. Similar to a speakeasy, you're going to see creativity and an interesting blend of flavors here. The most popular drink is Fuck Nazis. We're seeing a theme here. KWSC is an interesting spot. For various dollar amounts, you can get funny things outside of the polaroids of your bum. My first cocktail was great. My second one, a tiki drink, not so much. The menu said that there would be some flame action happening. It didn't. Just another example of the service falling short.

Back then, the cocktails felt intentional and creative, not just rushed out for volume. The staff remembered regulars, conversations flowed naturally, and the whole place had this warm, eclectic energy that made you want to stay for hours. Even on busy nights, it somehow still felt personal. Unfortunately, over the last couple of years, the vibe has changed quite a bit. The drinks just aren't as consistently good as they used to be, especially considering the prices now. Service feels far more transactional and impersonal, and the atmosphere that once made this place stand out has faded into something much more generic. It feels less like a neighborhood gem and more like a stop on a nightlife circuit.
