American Retro Bar and Grill

Great local bar. They have a group of regulars who followed them when their location moved. Very relaxed vibe, staff is friendly and helpful. The front looks relatively small, just the bar and a handful of tables, but there's a huge back room with plentiful seating. We generally go for drinks and/or snacks, but have had dinner as well, and there's a robust bar food menu. Potato skins and tots are delicious.

Absolutely loved this place. The food was amazing, pulled pork tater tots and hot honey and garlic wings!!! The staff were so friendly and helpful and made us feel so welcome on our first night in New York. And from a UK tourist point of view it looks like the sports bars you see on the TV!!

Relaxed neighborhood spot that moved from their original location on 11th Ave to 9th Ave. Friendly folks, yummy bar food, and a nice “dad bar” type atmosphere that works for local regulars, sports teams after games, visitors, families. Food portions are super generous and they have all the staples like burgers, wings, etc. They’re also open daily for lunch/brunch. Not many bars with this vibe in the area - a great addition to the 50s on 9th Ave!

YOU AINT NEVER HAD TOTS LIKE THESE! No seriously, get the tots.. Stumbled across American Retro on the way out of Terminal 5 one night; this spot is the real deal. First of all, the kitchen stays open until 1:45an every day. That’s worthy of 5 stars alone. Finding good food on the week days can be a struggle after midnight but American Retro got it! Service is always good when I come here and the bartender I see regularly who name is Mike is a super nice guy and he makes a great cocktail. Menu has good selection and everything I’ve had ever was always amazing. Did I mention the tots? Great prices considering the location. Highly recommend.

I don't even know where to begin, we "found" this place after a boat ride. We arrive little sports bar that turns out to be a sister business to another bar I frequent. The menu is mixed typical bar food and some surprises. YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED Everything is freshly made and amazing!!! It's your typical sports bar so no bells and whistles BUT the food!!!! UPDATE They moved to what I hope is much more foot traffic. I had it again. JUST AS AMAZING.. Nothing will disappoint you.

Whoever knew a burger would taste so good on an English muffin. Retro Burger is so freaking good. It hits the spot. And the drinks are good too. Strong, Sweet n PERFECTION.

This restaurant is a gem! We came late at night with a group of 6 after a Broadway show and touring Time Square. Several restaurants were closed. Thankfully we found this place! There was only one gentleman waiting tables, but the service was still quick and fine. Food was great and it was very quiet. We loved the pulled pork tater tots! And I don't even like tater tots. The wings were pretty good too. Overall great place for a late bite to eat.

Came to this place on the whim late night for food, and it was really good. The tots I have to say are the best thing on the menu! I got the gravy and mozzarella cheese ones, and they’re big enough to share with another person!
