Ritz Restaurant Dyersville

Out of state visitor. Everything was homemade and delicious! The service was friendly and on point (Sam). The restaurant and bathrooms were clean, the atmosphere was relaxing and the bill was reasonable. May have to take another road trip in the future.

The Ritz is the place where the good, salt of the earth people eat and work. It's a wonderful, local, hometown spot with a great drink menu and solid food choices. I got the Iowa pork chop and a baked potato. It did not disappoint. When Julie set it in front of me, my jaw dropped and I just looked at her which caused her to burst out laughing. My face must have been priceless. The chop was perfectly done, had a nice char bark on the outside and the inside was juicy and flavorful. It came with homemade soup, salad, and fresh out of the oven, pillowy dinner rolls. My husband was pleased as punch to see blue gill on the menu and that's what he got. He had a part of my chop and was highly impressed. The service was excellent and Julie is an absolute pro! The food was great. We had a wonderful meal and super experience and it didn't break the bank.

The Ritz is a solid throwback to a more simple time and vintage rural supper club dining. Good eats, good drinks, good service, and just enough atmosphere to transcend time to its 1948 opening. The Ritz is an absolute must for quality dining in Northeast Iowa. It’s the Ritz. Not the Glitz. Don’t expect ostentatious, fancy, trendy, or hipster presentations, just regionally up-a-notch traditional dining in the shadow of The Basilica St. Francis Xavier. The Ritz offers a totally adequate fare of meats, fish, seafoods, along with excellent sides and appetizers. They present a good list of sandwiches as well for a more casual plating. Gotta love the old style full bar. The house specialty is a Southern Comfort Old Fashioned. Martinis and most classic call drinks add to the festivities. Each entree comes with homemade soup, salad, and potato choices. Their soups are awesome. Steaks are perfectly char grilled to your desired temperature, and the fish and seafood equally ideal! The Ritz offers the best cheesecake West of a New York deli. On a busy night the Ritz is loud and the wait staff hustle without a break. I have no idea how they get so much properly prepared food out of a small kitchen without skipping a beat. On a quiet night just hanging out at the bar is priceless time. The crowd tends to be on the older side. Thank goodness the young folks haven’t figured out what a great experience there is in classic supper club dining! That said, all are welcome and keeping this family owned treasure in business for another generation is just another worthwhile reason to stop in and make the Ritz one of your regional favorites.

We came to Dyersville for the Field of dreams and this restaurant was recommended. So glad we went! Nicest owners and staff, delicious food, comfortable and inviting and very home town feel. They even brought me small cups to taste some of the cheesecake toppings cause I was curious what they were like and my kids only wanted plain. Beyond happy to have dined here!

Owner Dan made sure we had his last table for our 40th anniversary, Kendra the server was awesome!

Wonderful restaurant for an evening meal. Recently enjoyed the Friday evening shrimp special which includes soup, salad, bread, potato choice and all you care to eat breaded and fried shrimp. They are famous for their “Brandy Old Fashion Sweet” beverage. We also enjoy the Ritz Soup Club especially over the cold winter days! Warms up nicely and can be frozen. If you enjoy their soups, ask about getting on their e-mail list for the weekly Soup Club-very convenient ready to go meal!

The ribeye steak was cooked perfectly. The cabbage and sausage soup was delicious. Will be back.

Great food and service with a retro supper club vibe. They have a well supplied bar and make excellent drinks. I eat here at least twice a month and have never had a bad meal. They make fabulous homemade soups.
