The name is eponymous to what was known as the 'mother road of America'. It originally ran from Chicago, Illinois, through Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, and California, before ending at Los Angeles for a total of two thousand four hundred and forty eight miles. The route has now reached Germany in the form of this restaurant and gained instant popularity.

Stars and stripes, burgers, nachos, Coca Cola, Marylyn Monroe, Elvis Presley, and Ray Charles come alive there. Inspired by the diners of the fifties and sixties, it's a hot spot for international tourists and locals alike. You could visit there for breakfast, lunch, dinner or a cold beer with friends. Numerous decorations in American design and a sprawling staircase leading to a spacious second level give a Hollywood flair to the establishment. Chrome juke boxes at almost every table allow guests to listen to their choice of music from that era. The fare complements the theme and the service is lively.

The wide variety on the menu will leave you spoilt for choice. A California breakfast, jam, honey, one boiled egg and fruits or an Arizona breakfast, omelette with cheese, tomato, mushrooms, onion and salad bouquet could provide the right start for some, while others might opt for the farmer's breakfast of scrambled eggs with potatoes, ham and grated cheese. All breakfasts are served with fresh buns and butter.

Those who prefer burgers can order bacon cheese burger, Hawaiian burger with slices of pineapple, Swiss burger with mushrooms or supreme burger with bacon, spicy jalapenos, cheese and fried egg. If you want a quick bite you could order sandwich combinations such as mozzarella cheese, tomatoes and fresh basil, grilled bacon, and chicken, grated cheese and barbeque sauce.

Tacos, enchiladas and fajitas appear on the bill of fare and those seeking this spicy cuisine could order warm tortilla chips with chopped onions, tomato cubes, spicy jalapenos, chicken strips and sour cream, salsa and avocado dip.

Grilled chicken with herb butter, salmon fillet with spinach, rump steak with mushrooms, onions and paprika strips are some of the house specials well-liked by regulars.

A three course meal could start with mushroom soup with basil and one bun; crumbed and fried onion rings with dip, or crumbed and fried chicken pieces with barbeque sauce. Mains offer tuna, feta cheese and onion pizza and pasta with beef strips, tomato sauce, herbs, mushrooms and onions. Cheesecake with strawberry sauce and whipped cream and brownies with vanilla ice cream and chocolate sauce for dessert ensure a spirited end to the meal.

A range of milk shakes, chocolate drinks, coffee and soft drinks are also to hand.
