"I really like this restaurant. It is a gem located on Route 66, and the place has a lot of history. The food quality is good, but I will not be ordering the meat loaf in the future. It used to be homemade style, but now it is some restaurant supplier pre-made stuff with very little taste. I was very disappointed. My wife ordered liver and onions, and it was great. I always make it a point to visit Del's when traveling through, and will do it again. I just do not recommend the meat loaf. anymore."

"Excellent and amazing are just two words.That can describe their food. My car ended up with the blown headed gasket. Just outside of their town. So I got the pleasure i've getting to del's restaurant. My first night Jorge was my waiter. I had their Patty milk. Their French fries with the most amazing ranch. I'm sweet iced tea with lemon and splenda and the best lemon pie i've had in years. My second night I had a build your own platter. So I had salsa and chips. Beans and rice, I had a taco, chile relleno, chimichanga, and a burrito with green sauce.So much food and so delicious. Today for breakfast I had huevos Ranchero breakfast platter with green sauce it was absolutely divine"

"Vintage restaurant in a vintage town on old route 66. Del's food, atmosphere, and service was fantastic! We had the Chicken Sopapilla, and Chase's burger with the loaded mac side. Awesome! Great tasting and large helpings. Katie our server was sooo great! Be sure to ask for her!"

"A definite road-trip-experience restaurant. While the food was good, the service and the charm is what made it so great. We were there for lunch so the prices were great along with it being a ton of food! We got chips and salsa along with a sopapilla as part of our lunch deals, so we left very full! We arrived on December 1st and the whole place was decked out for Christmas! It was a very fun, family-friendly esthetic. The big winner here was Jorge our waiter. Jorge was incredibly attentive, friendly, and personable. We enjoyed our experience primarily due to him and this place gets 5 stars just for him! In short, I wouldn't say this is a foodie's dream stop - it was pretty good, but wasn't anything amazing. However, it was plenty filling at a great price, and the staff and interior made it a great stop on our road trip."

"Apparently the place to eat. Thursday night was good but Saturday was so busy our take out '20 minute' order took 35. Orders were correct and food was good. My husband loved the chicken tenders, fries were ok. The taco salad was ok. The philly and sweet potato fries were delicious. Diner food at best"
