We’re a Go for Retro Day…
…in case you missed it, we’ve been beating our upcoming Retro Day this Saturday like we’re dusting a rug. Yes, Retro Day is this Saturday!

Next week, we have our second seasonal invisible show in honor of that time you got stood up and had to eat alone with that silly long stem rose still in your hand. And, you just bought that shirt. The wait staff took pity on you and gave you extra ice water, pouring it very loudly from two feet above the glass just so everyone could see you were dining alone. They may as well have planted a giant flag at your feet with a big “L” on it. They then made as much noise as they could clearing the other side of your table, like a shitty street musician warming up. I guess you won’t be needing that breath mint they gave you with the bill. Ah, yes, that Saturday will be for you! If you’ve ever been ghosted, cheers! Let’s just hope your ex shows up expecting to see you—the one who ran off with that Nebraskan tick farmer you always hated so much. This empty lot will be for you!
A bunch of our regulars will be down in Monterey, so we traditionally take that Saturday off. You still have time to get a group, pile into a car, and head to Monterey, hitting that first In-n-Out on the way down.
Meanwhile we’ll see you Saturday for a wonderful Retro Day!
