Remember When — Attraction in Torrington

Stumbled into this place ! What a delight. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. You can sit downstairs in the cafe or upstairs for the restaurant menu. Intimate space. Either spot is simply breathtaking. I was alone so I sat downstairs. Brenda was the server and she was friendly and informative. You can tell she cares aboutt the restaurant and the store. I chose a salad with organic greens, added the pecan chicken salad. It was great and served with warm pita bread. All around you is vintage lighting, jewelry, framed art, hats, purses, glasses and furs for sale. There were even Immaculate condition. If you have children, understand the tables are next to very expensive vintage lamps, so they should be well behaved or tad older. It was impressive. Not a spec of dust to be seen. The drink menu was also vintage plus they had homemade desserts, coffees, expresso, etc. They offer ice cream sundaes, milkshakes -also adult versions. You can even stop in to check out their cookies or pastries to go. I hope to go for dinner soon. It left me with such a great feeling to be surrounded by such beaity, history and thanks to the owners for sharing with me. Sorry to say, my camera phine does not work so...

Everything about the Ritz is a WOW!!! Came here for brunch during a girls' weekend. From the moment you enter the restored Art Deco building, you are transported into the 1920's. From the hanging lighting fixtures, to the vintage clothing, jewelry and accessories, the atmosphere is a treat for the senses. Cafe dining is available on the first floor and outside in the warmer months. We dined in the upstairs lounge, an intimate space for 40 or so guests. Menu selections sound incredible. We ordered the special seafood omelet, the bacon/egg/cheese waffle, the artichoke/bacon toast and eggs benedict. Every dish is a home run! Cooked perfectly and tasted delicious. Full bar. The cocktail choices are yummy. Bloody Marys are a work of art. Never saw anything like it! The brunch mimosas come in a variety of flavors. We ordered the pineapple & cranberry and they packed a tasty punch. Desserts were pure decadence. Fudge brownie sundae & cannolis were excellent. The Ritz is ideal for a romantic evening, girls' night out, special celebration or intimate event. Make a reservation and experience special dining in an extra...

What a wonderful Antique/Vintage Collectible Shop and Speak Easy Restaurant! The owners have done a fantastic job displaying their beautiful wares from Vintage Jewelry, Clothes, Furs, Gorgeous Chandeliers, etc. It is visually stunning! The building is Antique/Vintage as well with high pressed tin ceilings and beautiful lace curtains. There are booths in the shopping area, as well as a front and back patio for dining. There is also a cocktail bar in the shopping area. Upstairs is the Speak Easy dining area which is gorgeous. It is appointed with beautiful Chandeliers. The wait staff were friendly and attentive. The chef is one of the owners. We can't say enough about how good the food was. Large portions and delicious! There is a dance floor and wonderful nostalgic music from the past. We highly recommend this and will be back for sure. Sincerely, Harry...
