Little Rituals

Cuisine: Bar Food
Neighborhood: Central Phoenix

132 S. Central Ave., 4th Floor Phoenix, AZ 85004

602-603-2050

At the ritzy, intimate Little Rituals on the fourth floor of the Residence Inn/Courtyard by Marriott, Aaron DeFeo executes intense, cocktail-geek-tickling drinks in a plush room with a view of Chase Field and distant mountains. Split spirit bases are the norm. Ingredients like Amari, house liqueurs and salty foam provide delicate edits, usually many in a single drink. A daiquiri, for example, gets fortified with curry and Sichuan pepper oil. Little Rituals is home to many award-winning bartenders and is widely regarded as a top-class cocktail bar nationwide.
