It’s a great spot. It’s more for beer enthusiasts but overall great. Had a great conversation with the owner. Food was good and it was super retro, which is nice! Menu selection is more figure food than anything but get the burger… it’s great!Parking: It’s Seattle. There is no free parking. Get your wallet out.Kid-friendliness: Mainly for adults. Kids can really only stay in the restaurant part. So, I’d think about taking the kids elsewhere.

On a special Seattle trip with my 12-year-old daughter. Searching for a restaurant. We stumbled upon the Retro. I wasn’t sure about it to be honest - unassuming exterior. We were quickly welcomed by Bridget. We loved the rock theme. Restaurant was clean. Bathrooms were clean. I got the meatloaf sandwich. My daughter got a bacon cheeseburger. My daughter said, “best burger ever.” The meatloaf sandwich was on point!! The French fries were really good too. We could easily make this a regular spot if we lived in Seattle. Thank you Retro!!

The owner is super delightful and so is her son. Absolutely stellar food. I love their slider burgers, their $6 fry plate, and honestly some of their house drinks are super killer. They give an industry discount on drinks if you work DT in Seattle, and honestly it's just a nice spot. Affordable food, that's made with wonderful local ingredients and honestly just speedy and great service. This is the best value food you will find in Belltown and this is where I get food for lunch all the time. Again the owner is so nice and they decorate for the holidays. Super great spot especially if you're looking to feed a bunch of people on a budget this is the place! Also their meatloaf and cod sandwiches are super good!

Kinda grunge rock dive food place. Food was okay. The prices are way more reasonable than the area.

Place can be a little depressing especially if you're a colored person. They treated me as if I shouldn't be there cause I looked like I couldn't afford the place. It made me uneasy. So I whisked right up out of there, with my middle fingers? up at the staff and their treatment!!!

The food was lacking in my opinion. All my food was plain: side salad, burger sliders and fries. The sliders only had mayo and lettuce, no seasoning on the patty and the fries were overcooked. The server was nice.

Great bang for your buck. Food is average and the knocked out wall to show the pool table was interesting since you had to go around to the bathroom side to access it. Nothing memorable, but the mixed drink was decent. Staff was nice.
