This old-school spot serves up American classics like a beef and bean chili laden with plenty of spices that Guy calls “a home run.” Owner Nick Boyd also keeps customers with a sweet tooth satisfied by churning out fresh, flaky pastries, while his wife, Charity, serves '50s-style floats and phosphates. One cult favorite is the Green River Soda, a retro flavor that's a big hit with the kids, thanks to its super-sweet taste and its ability to turn your tongue green if you guzzle enough of it.
Guy Fieri rolls out to some legendary joints that'll take you back in time: Taylor's Automatic Refresher in St. Helena, California, an original 1940s take-out only burger joint, where nothing has changed -- except the choice of burgers now includes Ahi Tuna; Southside Soda Shop and Diner in Goshen, Indiana, a total 60's experience, where the special is home-made chili over spaghetti in a parfait glass; And Byways Cafe in Portland, where the red vinyl booths and checkered floor keep it feeling like the 50s, and they make their own corned beef hash and key lime pie.
This trip, Guy Fieri's checking back with some of the most amped-up American eats! First, a Phoenix burger joint has expanded, found success in pizza and ice cream, and is keepin' it creative with funky fritter flavor bombs and not-your-everyday nacho patties. Then, dynamite diner grub is going strong in Buffalo, N.Y., with mind-blowing blueberry pancakes and a big-deal BBQ meatloaf bomber, and a family-run Triple-D O.G. in Goshen, Ind., is still crankin' out killer comfort with their savory snapper soup.
