  • Steakhouse

    A Route 66 steakhouse run by the Katsaros family since 1970, entered through an attached package liquor store. Steaks are hand-cut fresh daily. Gil's Thrilling and Filling Blog steers you to the porterhouse, with the ground-steak green chile cheeseburger and Greek souvlaki close behind. Finish with apple pie a la mode in a room of faux-wood walls and vintage booths.

  • Dive Bars

    You enter this Route 66 institution through its attached package liquor store, which is exactly the point. Southwest Contemporary frames the Monte Carlo as a dive worth celebrating: dim light, faux-wood paneling, velvet Elvis on the walls and vinyl booths that have not changed since the Katsaros family opened in 1970. Grab a cheap, strong pour and soak up the kitsch.
