I have a new love for hot honey to where if it's on the menu, I'm ordering it. The burger was straight to the point, no fixings. The peanut butter makes the hot honey very very subtle. I requested the bacon to be well done & they made it just right. I almost didn't have room for the fries. They were well seasoned. They also they their own seasoning sitting on the table, if for anything else, I would've used it. The servers were very very nice & friendly, they knew about everyone who was there at the time.

The mushroom gravy had good flavor and texture. The chicken salad had a good variety of greens, not just one type of lettuce. A good portion of shredded chicken on top. This was a very large salad. There was enough for two people to share. Portion could have been better. Service was great. Attentive without being pushy. A fun place to eat. Lots of memorabilia from the movie Cars, which took inspiration from this restaurant. Definitely big on Route 66, too, as evidenced by the adjacent gift shop.

The Chili Cheese Dog with fresh, raw onions (as foretold by the cheesy appetizer) was dense and flavorful, maybe the best no-frills chili dog in Oklahoma. My picky 13yo ate his first First Fried Apple pie with a slice of vanilla. His eyes got really big, and the plate was clean in an instant. The big treat, though, is the full-quarter slice of Poor Man"s "Pecan" Pie made with oats, not pecans. Served hot with a perfect slice of vanilla ice cream (yes, it's a tray-cut square) with a perfect crust -- This may be my favorite dessert ever, in the whole wide world. Of course the whole wide world needs more innovative classic food stops like this on Route 66. Also, ask to see their fire-surviving copy of Eternal Route 66 by Chuck Williams, an ironic souvenir from a prior iteration of The *eternal* Rock Cafe. If you're a fan of Sally the blue Porsche from the Disney Pixar movie Cars, ask to meet the owner, Dawn. She *might* tell you her story that inspired the sweetheart sports car, and John Lasseter, Pixar's chief creative officer is happy to confirm when visiting with memorabilia gifts that decorate the cafe.

For some reason there is an air filter attached to the outside of each air conditioning intake vents, that caught my eye. They are congested with years and years of anything and everything that may have floated in the air. An attractive, appetizing collection of gray allergens, shed skin cells and hair. Look at the picture. Why do people eat here? It can't be blamed on beer. They don't serve any. Maybe it was great a few years ago? I am not going to waste any more of my time or yours. Drive to Cleveland, OK. There are a couple of great places to eat there. Kathy's Mason jar needs to have a lid put on it and canned!
