The Ritz on Union has a traditional heritage while bringing a modern flair. We pride ourselves on providing a good sense of value with exquisite taste, presentation, and ambience. We offer Italian Continental dishes, inherent to our Sicilian background, with gluten-free, vegetarian and vegan options for the most discerning of tastes, and our desserts are simply scrumptious. Enjoy cocktails and drink specials at our full bar. During the pandemic of 2020, we demolished the old dining room portion of our facility and transformed it into The Ritz on Union. We styled a restaurant having a contemporary look, and focused the menu and service to provide the very best food and dining experience that Schenectady has to offer. In addition, we present the newest options for parties and gatherings, formal and work functions, and life events like showers, weddings and anniversaries. We can accommodate up to 65 people in our beautiful dining room.

Chef John LaPosta has had a long and exciting career path which has landed him in the restaurant of his dreams. Along with his partner, Tina Kruger, he has created a wonderful American Gastropub full of great energy, fine hospitality, and of course, outstanding food.It is his passion for excellence, beaming hospitality and tireless work that have been the hallmarks of John's 30+ years as one of the Capital Region’s most popular chefs. He is known for his outstanding food that he serves to "real" people in a fun and unassuming style. His simple philosophy has always been "put the love on plate." In doing this, people feel comfortable when reading his menus and do not feel as if they need to be a chef themselves to understand it. Inspired food and service in an unassuming manner with outstanding hospitality!

    Lamb burger was very tasty. Service was good. Menu is more of a “pub food” type menu but had some interesting choices.

    Duke’s is our go to place for special dinners. The filet was excellent as always. Hubby had the short rib Ragu with gnocchi, the short ribs were delicious but the gnocchi was overcooked.

    A perfect Friday evening! We were greeted warmly by Anthony, and had a choice of tables. We chose a high top tucked into a corner, giving us privacy and quiet. Our server, Nicole, was attentive, made suggestions when asked, and made sure our food came at the right time. We shared the buffalo chicken wing appetizer (fantastic); I had a small wedge salad (the sliced avocado was perfectly ripe and a wonderful touch) while my husband had an antipasto salad. He had short rib sliders as his entree while I had a personal pizza. Both were very good - he finished his while I ate a generous slice and the brought most of my pizza home. We had a lovely evening, great food, friendly service from Nicole, and attention from the owner. We are lucky to have this restaurant so close to where we live.
