Just good fun and lots of history and pictures of the route, Elvis and of course a diner from the past. Food was fine, service was excellent and music all fit.

Food was okay, malts were good, atmosphere was fun. Nothing too special, but it was a nice stop after a beautiful spring day hiking. The Route 66 memorabilia was fun to look at and the wall with all the signs in the parking lot made a good photo op.

Yes we had milkshakes for breakfast, in this fifties diner. The food was great, the items we had though were very spicy, so keep in mind if you don't like hot food, avoid stuff with the peppers.

Probably worth a stop just to see the '50s memorabilia. The malt was good, but the hamburgers were average at best. The location is hard to find, but they do have some great movie posters.
Used to eat here when working in downtown Albuquerque. Now that we no longer live here but visit it is always on our must stop list. Great green chili cheese burgers and milk shakes.
The green chile dishes were wonderful - we all enjoyed it very much. A fun and relaxing place to eat.
