The Retro

The Retro We are a family business that has served this community for more than 25 years providing excellent service and quality food for all ages. Kim

We use original recipes that were created more than 40 years ago. Our History: In the early 1980’s, Marg Roti Roti created her recipes and sold pizzas out of her home. A few years later she opened the “Pizzeria” for carry out only. In the late 1980’s, Cheri Waara purchased it, added the pitas, and it became the “Best Cellar Plus”. In 1990, my family purchased the business, added fried food, burge

rs, sandwiches, and ice cream and named it “Pizza Etc”. We sold the business from 2000-2006 and then purchased it back. We continued to own and operate from 2006-2020 with all the original recipes and homemade pizza and pita dough created by Marg. After nearly 25 years in business, we are opening a new location, “The Retro”, while offering many of the same loved recipes as well as many new ones. Our family has been committed to serving this community for over three decades and plan to continue to for many years to come. We look forward to serving our customers again, old and new, while offering exciting new options. If you have a menu suggestion, feel free to send us a message. We always love adding new things!

Dream of owning your own business? This place has so many options. It was a full time restaurant that served pizza, pitas, salads, sandwiches, fried food, ice cream, etc. It was a regular hangout for the teen crowd and a great place for family gatherings after local events.

Make this what YOU want! Philip needs more eating establishments and this was a great business! My reasons for closing were personal and no reflection of the business opportunity.

Whether you just want to serve breakfast, supper, or open all day, I can help you get started. Or maybe you only want to be open 6 months of the year. Create a completely new menu or renew our staples from 1980, anything is possible.

Price is negotiable. We can talk numbers when you are serious about jumping in! Want to talk about pros and cons, I'm an open book and happy to answer any and all questions. Just ask.

We've had a lot of great customers over the years... But I think I will miss my teens the most! We had a great night, I think the kids had a great time, and they will be missed! And of course, they were gifted our famous original breadsticks that we have made for years (only special occasions)!

Thank you for raising great kids! And thanks to the teens for a great night!

Thank you to all our customers over the past 28 years (25 as Pizza Etc and 3 as The Retro). This journey started in 1990 in a small run down building with a jukebox and VHS rentals. In 2012, we moved to a larger building with DVD rentals, and ended in a new building with outdoor seating and 50's music streaming. We have met so many people from all over the world and different walks of life. Those memories we will carry with us as we begin our next adventure! Thank you and blessings to you all!

The business is for sale and will include the building, land, equipment, and any remaining inventory. If you are seriously interested in purchasing, you can contact me on my cell at 605-891-1941 and leave a message.
