The Retro Burger Bar – LCM 38 FALL 2014

the-retro-burger-FE-1-190x300Chef Tadd Chapman’s fun and funky Retro Burger Bar may salute days gone by and give special attention to classic burger bar staples like shakes and root beer floats, but don’t you dare mistake this spot for an old-fashioned dive. This is where Chapman’s innovative spirit thrives, as evidenced by his creative menu. For your first visit, we suggest the Lamborghini, which was named for the seasoned ground lamb that is piled high with sundried tomatoes, pesto, feta, arugula, red onion, tomato marmalade and tzaziki and served with house-cut sea salt fries and a house-made pickle. Pair any burger with old-fashioned root beer float or, before 6 p.m., some happy hour house drinks. Between meals, try the fresh popcorn with white truffle oil, fried rosemary, and cracked pepper; the cheeseburger lollipops; or the pork belly chicharrones with the hellfire sauce. Watch just about any sports event on 13 oversize flat-screen TVs. Blvd. Mijares S/N Edificio Eclipse, San José del Cabo, (624) 130-7042. www.retroburgerbar.com. Sun.–Wed. 11 a.m.–midnight, Thurs. 11 a.m.–2 a.m., Fri. 11 a.m.–3 a.m., Sat. 11 a.m.–4 a.m. AmEx, MasterCard, and Visa accepted. $–$$$ C.M.
