Ritual Rooftop Restaurant & Lounge

We saw the Goslings Seal Island Rum. Figured okay... a Dark & Stormy. I asked if they had ginger beer. Yes. Ordered the D&S. He pours the rum in the glass first! Big mistake. The essence of the drink is to gently pour the rum over the top of the ginger beer. The Storm! Nope. He didn't get it. Then we ordered the calamari with aioli sauce. A tiny smear of aioli on the edge of the bowl. Can you spare it?!! We asked for more... waited... and he's busy making a drink, telling us so! We get a tiny cup of aioli. They don't know and don't care. Service is all about knowing and caring. Fuggedaboudit.

Jules was a super nice host! Super kind and helpful.

First time here & everything was 10/10. Thank you Macy!

Macy was awesome!

This place is really cool! I only had coffee, but my family enjoyed the food.

Ritual is always a good time. We enjoy the food and the drinks! Highly recommend. Jediah was great!

Tori made it! Best in Charleston- thank you for a great experience :)

I’m not one to write negative reviews normally but our lunch last Friday was a very disappointing experience in a city full of exceptional dining. The waitress was kind but brand new and didn’t have any recs or much knowledge of the menu. The wine pour was truly the smallest, saddest I’ve ever experienced. The oysters on the half shell were small and still stuck to the shell (which made them fall apart as we scraped them out). The fish tacos were the worst, just two small slivers of fish and a corn salad that had little flavor and hard, dry corn. There was no lettuce, sauce, salsa, avocado etc. and no sides. Chipotle does a much better job.

The decor, vibe and outdoor dining space were nice but my overall experience was a solid 1 based on the poor quality of the food.

Had very high hopes for the standard of service for this restaurant. Came here for my bachelorette weekend and was very disappointed in the service. Our waiter was friendly but very preoccupied by other tables. Chit chatting for 10 minutes or so while we needed to be served. Took a very long time to even have our order taken Asked to check on our appetizer for us since we still had not received what we ordered. He proceeded to go entertain a table for quite sometime. Food took forever to come and came cold. Tables seated after us got their food before us. The way we were tended to you would have thought the restaurant was at maximum capacity mind you it wasn’t busy. Multiple members of my party did not receive their food at the same time as the rest of the table.With the price you pay for food and drinks you’d expect better service. Highly disappointed. Don’t expect quality service here even if you have a reservation.

Everything about this place is incredible! The atmosphere along with the service and food was outstanding. I got the burger with the crispy potato bravas and it was delicious. The drink was a coconut creamsicle and that was also amazing! This has been one of my favorite restaurant experiences ever, I definitely suggest that you stop here.

Dropped in for happy hour with coworkers. The rooftop is gorgeous. Very attractive crowd. Bartenders are very talented. I tried one of the specialty drinks and was not disappointed. Ordered a few of my favorites, old fashions, by far the best I've had in a long time. Food was served quickly after ordering. The ceviche and the shrimp tacos were just ok, not very flavorful. Overall, a pretty good place to chill.

I got so caught up looking at this woman hat I forgot to akepictures of what was ordered. We started with the Tepache Betty and the Mayan Sour. Then we enjoyed half priced apps for their happy hour. Although a lot of people like the Crispy Brussel Sprouts, we weren't fans of it. I never liked them but wanted to try them since so many people make a big a do about them. We did get a couple other apps. The braised beef empanadas were pretty good. But I think I'll try the Chipotle Chicken Empanada next time. The Crispy Potato Bravas were good. Make sure you get extra aioli for them. But our favorite was the Tajin Dusted Calamari. Might as well just go ahead and get a double order??‍♂️ We ended our afternoon date with a couple more drinks. The Summer Thyme and the Coconut Creamsicle. I enjoyed the Summer Thyme a little more than the Creamsicle. This was the perfect day to spend on the rooftop..especially with a pretty lady to look at...Now go and check out my other reviews on places to stay and eat. We outchea! SHALOM

My bridesmaids and I went here for my bachelorette party and we were very pleased with every bit of our experience. The atmosphere was on point and the vibe was vibing. Gesle was our server and she was so sweet and attentive without being overbearing. I am definitely thinking of taking my husband in the near future!!
