Fun 80s atmosphere (80s videos) and AMAZING food. We had the Smoked brisket panini and Caribbean Tamarind Pulled Pork. Delish.

Food was good, (quite a few vegan options!), service was good, and the location is right in the downtown area. Plenty of seating even for a busy Friday night.

We just tried Retro Rocks for the first time tonight...absolutely awesome! We started with drinks at the bar, would definitely recommend their Butterfly Tequila Paloma...so refreshing. For a take home order we chose the pork potstickers and the Argentinian beef skewers...they were both so incredible. The sirloin literally melts in your mouth and the chimichurri aioli would be good on just about anything!!! Can't wait to come back and try more of their menu :)
