On our road trip from Virginia, we ended up staying 2 nights at a hotel in Jasper, IN. Looking for…read moresomething that wasn't "road food", we found Retro Mexico on an internet search. We pulled in on a Sunday evening around 6:00 and the parking lot was packed, always a good sign. The vibe of this place is incredible. Rather than fill the dining room with all the Mexican tropes most do, here the owner leaned into a party vibe. Bright and bold pop art portraits of pop music stars, Mexican wrestling mask art, and a pop music soundtrack from 70s-90s. The menu is also different. Of course there are some of the traditional dishes you would expect, but the menu also pops with some great twists and unexpected combinations of flavors. In fact we loved our meal so much, we left the Holiday World theme park early so we could eat there again before heading home. They were even busier on a Monday night! We recommend the Foxxy Chopped Salad, the Ponata salad, the Chicken Mole (yummm) and the Steak Bowl. We didn't see a single thing come out of the kitchen we wouldn't have eaten. The staff could not have been friendlier. The owner was working the bar the first night we were there and came over to talk to us. He really want everyone to have a great time when in his restaurant. If you happen to find yourself in Jasper, check them out.

Meal service requires you to order at the counter, then your food is brought out to you at a nearby table of your choice. This is a no-frills dining experience, but do not let that fool you...the food is top notch! I ordered a small variety of items to sample...a marinated pork taco, loaded steak fries and for dessert a flan. After a bit of a wait (they make everything to order), it all showed up at our table. The pork taco was dripping with charred pork flavor and came with grilled onions on the side. The double corn tortilla kept everything together as I dug in bite after bite. When the loaded steak fries showed up, my jaw dropped to the ground! This thing was big enough for 3-4 people to share...whoopsy! The crispy fries came layered with strips of grilled steak, a white cheese sauce, guacamole and a sour cream drizzle. Damn these things were good! And if that wasn't enough, I also ordered dessert because I am a sucker for flan (I grew up in Miami and have eaten probably one million flans). Honestly, was not a fan of their version's texture (too grainy, not creamy) and their sauce was not as sweet as many others I've had...but glad to have tried it. For being a small-town Indiana spot, I'd go back here no questions asked. There is an extensive menu for trying new stuff and I'd love to get that chance someday!

Excellent food and service both evenings we ate at Los Bravos…read more I'm always extremely skeptical of one star reviews. Some folks seem to think they can bully a free meal from restaurants with bad Yelp reviews. Others have never left a five star review, ever. The Monday and Tuesday nights we were at Los Bravos the restaurant was full of local families, something you won't see at a place that doesn't offer good food at a good value. Dinner for two was $30 and $40 plus tip, not including a cold Corona on a Hot!! southern Indiana summer day. Overall, as good a meal and dining experience as I've had in "white table cloth" Mexican restaurants at 2-3x $$ in much larger midwestern cities.

I have been here twice. And you couldn't get a more mixed experience…read more The first time was on the Cinco Mayo day, May 5, 2026, and it was quite awesome. The salsa was tasty perfect, the blueberry margarita excellent, and the food great. But on June 12, 2026 it was the opposite. It wasn't authentic Mexican at all, but instead tasted Tex Mex or German Mex, with no accent on flavor for the tongue, and instead just salt and pepper, with the most coarse pepper you could get, the sort that has no flavor on the palate, but scorches the throat. Those of us who were brought up on this "hot but not spicy German style food" have our throats destroyed and we have acid reflux of the esophagus. My tonsils were removed before I started school. The drinks were okay, and the rice was pretty good, but the only spices were salt and pepper. So, it may depend on who the cook is. I didn't feel comfortable there.

However, as it started to get busier, there was a noticeable drop off. Which is nothing out of the original, just something to keep in mind. The crab Rangoon was delicious and probably the only thing I would come back for. The outside was perfectly crispy and the inside was smooth and creamy. The ginger dressing was also great. The pad Thai was good, however, it tasted nothing like pad Thai. There were absolutely zero sweet notes and the eggs were basically whole. The limes were so dry that I was nearly unable to squeeze any juice out. There was an overall lack of vegetable variety. It was essentially just bean sprouts and noodles. I don't think there was any noticeable carrot or cabbage.

I happened to be in Jasper for a work meeting. We decided to head to this restaurant to grab lunch…read more I apologize I didn't get any photos as it was a work lunch. This place is adorable. It feels like an old German inn. The waitress staff wore cultural dresses. They even have a cute little gift shop. The salad bar looked fresh with plenty of options. I had the Ruben. It was delicious. It does not come with any sauce, but the waitress was happy to grab me thousand island. This was probably one of the best Ruben's I've had. For the side, I went with the German fries. Everything was tasty and I hope to come back again! A lot of the group ordered the fried chicken plate special and it looks delicious. They all enjoyed it as well.

Previously family and I have attended some great German restaurants in the motif of a beer hall…read more This is not that. It is more of an inn. There are lots of items on display almost like a small museum. Don't forget the gift shop. I was thrilled. Obviously popular, the clientele was experienced, but diverse. While I did not hear German discussion, I might have. Next to the restaurant is a building that is their catering. It was as big as the restaurant. Walking in, the sign said to seat yourself. Sometimes that means a delay in a server finding you. Nay, nay. She was prompt, attentive and knowledgeable. She was great. Because I scanned the menu ahead of time, I knew that I wanted the trio of wursts. They were among the best I've had. My server talked me into the potato salad. It was great. Along with the wursts, I ordered a salad and completely enjoyed their house made blue cheese dressing. The beer menu had Spaten Special. Spaten is a rare treat for and this is the first time I have even enjoyed it on tap. When I was leaving, I was able to buy a six pack of harder to find German beers. My adult son loves German beer and did not even recognize one I brought that he loved. Restraining myself, I made only modest purchases in the gift shop. This will not be true next visit. As far as the museum aspect, there are many displays. Down one wall are many car models, train models, liquor decanters and numerous other German items. I sneaked into a closed dining room with great displays of stein and wine history. A few times a year, I head from TN to IN. I will make this a two day stop. Oh, did I mention there is a hotel right next door to keep my safe from driving after enjoying a few great beers on tap?
