Route 66 is a classic diner with amazing food! I love the style of the diner, the decor, and the options on the menu. The portion sizes are large enough for any appetite. Today they seemed to be having trouble with the A/C so it was kind of hot, but the staff are very nice and the food is amazing. I ordered the chicken fried steak with salad and potato salad, and the teeny weeny sundae. There is parking all around the building though it can be difficult to maneuver in the lot with a larger vehicle.

Traveling through San Antonio and staying around the corner. Golf partner had been here before, my first time . What a great place. The decorations, waitress uniform, music, bar stools at the counter really made this feel like the 50’s/60’s vibe. Waitress Grace was really nice. We both had chicken fried chicken. Breaded and cooked perfectly. Milkshakes for dessert topped off a great meal experience. Highly recommend Route 66 cafe. You won’t be disappointed

Lovely place to experience American cuisine. The atmosphere is one of the kind that brings back the 60s vibes, the vibes that you see on movies from diners. Service is amazing and quick. Must try if you’re an International. The red and green chilli they have is also delicious with a mild kick in it.

Such a fun place. The staff was excellent. The food was very good and not beyond expectations. We really liked the interior decor. I hope we can land here again sometime.

This is one of the MUST stop eateries on Route 66. The service was awesome and friendly. The food were excellent. Portion was large. We were trying to go in with a game plan to get to dessert, we had to stop ourselves from over ordering, everything looks good. The decor of this place is unique and lovely. Love this place.

I honestly wasn’t much on the food, it was actually quite bland. So was my boyfriends. He got the meatloaf plate and looked and tasted like Salisbury. I didn’t like the fact that they let animals into the restaurant, I find it unsanitary. Other than that the nostalgia was cool.

Can’t get much better than this, food is comforting, was a little shocked that at 11:15am they were out of onion rings given the place opens at 11am. Pretty cool little diner though. I got a caramel apple deluxe milkshake that was top notch.

The food here is fantastic. Reliable quality and execution. I’ve never gotten something poorly cooked or mishandled. Great staff, and the place is always clean. I could live without the music however. Constantly playing oldies gets, old.

This restaurant lives up to the AAA recommendations regarding being a very good recreation of the 1950’s diners experience. We loved it! Food and service were excellent!!!
