The Ritz is a popular spot in DTSJ, known for its events and live music. The venue has a large capacity, but it can get congested inside, especially on busy nights. There are two bars—one near the entrance and another inside the main hall—making drinks easy to get. The space is big and open, providing plenty of room to dance. Parking is available right across the street, which is convenient. The bar staff, including longtime bartender Haley, are friendly and know how to make a good drink. The venue features a photo booth for fun moments, and the service is generally good. Some guests have noted issues with waiting in line even after getting stamped, and parking can be a bit of a challenge. While some reviewers have had concerns about management response and venue hours, others have enjoyed lively events like rock en español, 90's themed parties, and 2000's music nights. The venue's lively atmosphere and diverse events make it a popular choice for those looking to dance and enjoy live music in DTSJ.
