    This place is so strange but I love it so much. Always quite a mixed crowd. Good bar food, good price. Iconic!

    I sincerely LOVE this bar and the people who run it. I just wish their food was better. My question: Why is the pasta always served cold. Had it twice recently. Is this a choice? Do they put it to one side and let it 'rest' before serving? I mean I'm not expecting it to be fancy - just hot.

    The best! My favorite! Like Cheers, the bar where some people know my name! Affordable Italian food, bands every night, no cover, some really good bands too! Best service, friendliest staff, Debra and Christina and Jessica and Alicia and Sadie are the best! Debra's Sushi is affordable and the best I have ever had! !!!!!

    Checked out the Rite Spot to catch some live music on a Friday night, and had a wonderful time. Though it was moreseo due to the band playing this past weekend, The Cottontails, a talented group of musicians that play regularly here. They brought lots of energy to the place and wowed the crowd with their 20's/30's jazz and swing music. Their listed performance time was 8:00-10:30pm, but more accurately, they performed from 8:45-10:45pm (with a break in the middle) this past Friday. I was loving the incredible sounds of the bass, drums, piano, and saxophone, along with the remarkable vocals of Karina Denike throughout the entire night, a cool date night experience. The venue itself is not in the most inviting area (though at least street parking was easy to find), without much signage out front, so it doesn't look like much from the outside. Inside, it's dim and definitely divey, with a few bar seats, and tables wherever space allows, but it feels pretty crowded because it's a fairly small space, with an even smaller area for the "stage". But it seems to be a cool neighborhood bar, with interesting artwork on the walls, and decent service from bartenders and waitstaff who were attentive to our needs and requests, they served us some tasty drinks (Fizzy Rose, and Naked & Famous). And they have a food menu as well, looks like mainly burgers and itialian dishes. I'd return if there's a good band to see at the Rite Spot.
