I went here two nights in a row as I enjoyed it that much. Great menu with a ton of creative vegetarian (and non-veg!) options. My favorite was the onion tart--wow. Their cocktails are also spot on. Will def be back next time I visit town.
Visited on a Sunday evening. We enjoyed every plate that hit our table! Such attention to detail for everything from food, service, and atmosphere. The bartender is excellent, he is very friendly and has an awesome energy! The tapas here are a must-have, all the different flavors go so well together. Such beauty throughout The Fritz!
The Fritz recently reopened under new ownership which gave me reason to delete my previous and not 5 star review of the establishment. While some may be commiserating the menu change new ownership obviously drives, I applaud the owner for developing and delivering an updated menu that is diverse and delish. The cocktail menu has been crafted with care and provides some new quaffable drinks the downtown area needs. I highly recommend the whipped feta, olives and bolognese. All menu items are shareable in staying with the tapas theme. We have had an excellent experience each of the times we've dined here and given that we "fired" the restaurant after bad experiences under the previous owner, it took some convincing to return and boy are we glad we did!
Excellent food. Great drinks. I guess new owners and it was all fantastic. Really enjoyed my Bucatini. Wife lived her eggplant.
Had some great Aperol Spritzes and tapas at The Fritz- great location right along the park and river.
