    The decor is cute, but that is the only thing this place has going for it. We stopped it because it had been recommended by someone who'd been to William's years ago. We were a little shocked by the price given the type of food, $40 for a BBQ sampler plate is asking too much. We settled on the pulled pork sandwich and when it arrived, it was missing the toppings listed on the menu. We asked our server who said "oh I've heard of this happening, I think they are changing the menu" but got us the toppings on the side anyways. The sandwhich ultimately tasted like a sloppy Joe sandwich. Between the price, missing items, and poor quality, it's a cute place to look at but we would not go back to eat again.

    So while we are in town, we went to find someplace to eat and the first place we went, the wait was very long and we were very hungry and tired so we just stopped by this place even though the reviews are low. I didn't expect much but I will tell you my honest review. The great part was that we got seated right away inside. The decor is super fun and super route 66 vibes and that was cool. Service was good not awesome. The menu was very standard diner food nothing too exciting. But it's diner food so that's what you expect. Our food came very quickly and that was also great. I ordered the loaded potato with pulled pork. It was OK. My husband ordered the chicken grilled sandwich with french fries and OK. And my son got the chicken tenders and fries. The fries are really really good. But overall, I would say this is just diner food. It'll fill you up, but you're not gonna really walk away happy with the quality of food and the taste. But it is what it is is what I said.

    Brisket sandwich with sweet potato fries and a Cadillac Margarita

    Great cafe/bbq food at a good price, big, tasty and strong Cadillac Margarita. Attractive rustic Route 66 style decor. Would definitely recommend!

    Loved the sample platter! All the meats were seasoned and cooked/smoked well. We also shared a chicken walnut cranberry salad with raspberry vinaigrette...so good. Miguel was all smiles and quick, we love that. We sat outside in the sun . The decor inside was fun, even the bathroom.

    "Onion rings" on the BBQ burger, served open face like this

    We went in May at lunch time. The sign said to wait to be seated, so we waited a while until someone noticed us. The service was poor overall, with no smiles or "thank yous" throughout our stay, and everything taking a long time. The restaurant was about 1/3 full. The decor is decent. It is too big inside to feel cozy, and the black ceilings mean it isn't bright, either, but it still has basic diner vibes. The music is great: classic rock. Drinks: during our visit, they had 8 beers on tap, and 5 of those were sold out. The remaining 3 taps were pouring only head. We watched with amusement as servers would pour several glasses full of head, leave for a while until it fizzed down, then pour those glasses together to create one full glass of beer. The soft drinks were self-service. The food was fine but expensive. My burger was served with "onion ring," singular, which was microscopic. Burgers hover around 18 to $20, and mine was dry. Kids meal with no drink was $11, and my child spit out the mac n cheese: something I've never seen before or since. Overall, we tried to stay positive and have some laughs about it, but I would absolutely never go back or recommend the place.

    Still on the GC tour with the 16 old folks from the Central Coast I'd been here in Williams back when Covid had most of the world shut down. Today that was not the case, our fearless leader took us to a closed forever business for dinner. I remembered a cool burger place around here somewhere and as I stopped at the light there it was...hop diggity dog! I managed to find a long enough parking spot and there I stopped. Here it is folks "Best Burger in Town" I hollered ! They were greeted with a cowboy playing his guitar, perfect. They took to the tables and sat themselves down. I passed out some menus and headed to the bar inside. I didn't want a drink I wanted to get my burger order in before the kitchen was slammed. It worked, I ordered a bacon & cheddar burger with fries please, got me a Redbull to give me some wiings too. My burger was up hot and fresh with very hot fries. Giddy Up and down it went, thank you. The food was great, fresh and hot and fast service. I'd thrown in another star but honestly looks are important too. There just wasn't very good upkeep, clutter was a culprit behind the bar, fresh paint needed in a few places like the tables and chairs Looks like the love had been lost somewhere and it showed. Great burger but nothing fancy foodguy-martin

    Dinner on the patio. Live entertainment (one man band) interacts with the diners. Seated quickly. Self serve drinks featuring Coke products. Jake my waiter was NOT very attentive. I went to get a drink refill and a busser cleared my food into the bus tub. I left my phone at the table with half my food to show I was coming back. The ribs were fall off the bone tender and side dishes were okay. Better service could improve the meal and table service.

    Coke!

    My friend and I stopped here for pie and coffee while on a road trip to the Grand Canyon. They have…read moreover 50 different flavors of pies plus other desserts and also a menu of sandwiches and other meals, but the truth is that we were here for the PIES! I had the double chocolate cream pie. YUMMMMMMMMM . . . My friend had a fruit pie. The coffee was good. I saw other guests enjoying pastas, sandwiches, and other desserts and they seemed to be enjoying their meals. Our server was awesome and very personable. Parking is the standard small town curbside parallel parking. There is a small gift shop with some interesting signs (see photo). I HIGHLY recommend this local business.

    I haven't had to write a review in so long (I actually posted this on the wrong account earlier--so…read morethat tells you how long it's been), but I felt like I needed to share my experience today. We stopped by to order some pies after hearing great things (and yes--the pies do live up to the hype). We're visiting from California, so we were excited to try it out. The man who took our order was genuinely kind and made us feel welcome--10/10 for him. While waiting, my kids sat down at a table near the pies (I get it--not ideal on our part). But the hostess's reaction was... intense. Instead of a quick, polite redirect, we were told to leave in a way that felt unnecessarily rude. Even the guests she was seating noticed and commented on it, which says a lot. Look, I completely understand rules are rules--but delivery matters. A little kindness goes a long way, especially when you're dealing with families. So overall: amazing pies, friendly ordering experience, but the hostess might need a hug... and maybe a refresher on customer service. We'd love to come back for the pie, but the experience definitely left a bit of a sour taste.

Walk in, scan the QR code or grab a menu and find a seat. Plan your meal and visit the bar to order (better than being ignored across the street). Self-serve your drinks and before you know it you have food. My wife had Ceasar salad and was pleasantly surprised to find it contained halved cherry tomatoes. A salad is a salad, unless it's bad. You rarely notice if good, but this one was. A perfect salad lunch for her. My daughter had spaghetti and meatballs. She loved it. We're usually picky about Italian food and rarely order it from a non Italian place, but we've been on the road and she was starving. From the first bite she was hooked. Bursting with flavor, certainly part pork and full of herbs. Clearly made in house. My son and I split a margarita pizza and it hit hard. Paper thin. For dinner we'd need one each, but for lunch splitting it was perfect. Great flavor top to bottom. The paper thin crust, the tangy sauce, and good quality cheese topped with a generous amount of fresh basil. Bonus for the red hot sauce (green tasted artificial) which I grabbed a spoon to taste with as soon as we sat down, I love hot sauce. And for the classic rock playlist. Highly recommend for a quick meal.

When we walked in because we needed the restroom, the hostess was instantly unwelcoming. After I mentioned our party of 7 (and offered to split to 4 and 3), I don't have a table right now go outside, then said it would be 45 mins for the pizza as she threw up her hands in a gesture to push our group outside. I again told her we needed to use the restroom as we drove over a hour to try this location. She pointed to the restroom and told everyone else to go outside. Her tone and body language were completely unacceptable and made us feel like an inconvenience and unwelcome. There is no excuse for this level of rudeness, especially when we were willing to wait and saw plenty of open tables. Would not recommend this location due to the extremely poor customer service.
