\"Rainbow<\/p>\n

Ritz Prime Seafood’s<\/strong> Social Hour is a more sophisticated and civilized version of what is traditionally called Happy Hour. As soon as you enter the elegant, contemporary space and cast your eyes toward the million-dollar yachts and breathtaking view of Newport Bay, the stress of a long day seems to magically disappear. Add premium handcrafted cocktails plus prime seafood, sushi, and nibbles and the fact that Social Hour is all day (10-5) on Saturday and Sunday, and you’ll know why Ritz Prime Seafood’s Social Hour is so special.<\/p>\n

Shishito peppers have been making an appearance on menus for some time and the Ritz’s Blistered Shishito Peppers with Sesame Seeds was some of the best I’ve had. Served steaming hot so the bonito flakes are dancing – they’re a conversation piece that you won’t be able to stop eating.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

“The menu at The Ritz Prime Seafood represents the way people dine today”, says Chef Phil Kastel. “Our approach and preparations let the wonderful flavors of our ultra-fresh seafood, meats and other ingredients shine through in an appealing, modern and clean way. That said, we couldn\u2019t reinvent The Ritz concept without including one of the iconic classics from the original, the Ritz Egg.”<\/p>\n
