I first heard about New Retro from my friends who frequents this basement bar a lot. It is located underneath Zakkushi; it uses the same entrance, and just down a flight of stairs. The ambiance is moody and dim, and the music from the 80s-90s really hit the spot. I did see other tables using flashlights on their phone to look at the menu though, so you can imagine how dark it must be inside XD The kitchen is open-style; you can certainly see the all the actions going on behind...
Food was just okay this time around, came back because I had an amazing kaiseki don last year which is sadly gone along with the other dishes I really enjoyed. The ambience is nice but expect dishes to come out slower and one by one as everything is made to order. Most disappointed in the egg omelette, we thought they forgot to add it to our order when we got the bill but it actually just took them that long to get to it. Paid and waited for the last dish to arrive and was pretty...
Amazing. One of the best.
Had 6 dishes and enjoyed every single one of them (duck, ebi, yellowtail, fried rice, mackerel, uni maki)
I wanna try all their other dishes!
