Tony T. • September 7, 2014Great atmosphere. Plenty of room. Great place to get work done or study. Free refills on coffee. If you love tarimisu, it's amazing! Also check out the unique lattes and mochas like the Nutty Irishman

John K. • August 10, 2014Tomato soup and turkey avocado BLT

Elisabeth L. • June 17, 2010The menu at Ritual is mostly vegetarian - with a lot of vegan options! - and entirely delicious, even to omnivores like me. Try their homemade hummus, or freshly-chopped salsa. Super yumbolicious.
