What User doesn't like about Route 42:
I ordered the Chicken Dinner which came over cooked and the coating was way too salty for my taste. Almost couldn't ear the coating. I wasn't the only one who said it was too salty and way fried too much. Lots of the other food was good. View all feedback. What User likes about Route 42:
This is our 'go to' place for breakfast. Sometimes it can be a bit of a wait, but worth it. We decided to go for dinner for a change and I was sadly disappointed. The food was very salty, and the fries were not cooked enough. The rest of my group weren't very happy either. I will definitely keep going for breakfast. The staff are fantastic, the decor and the music will just put you in the mood to have a great day! View all feedback.

Overall, the restaurant offers a mixed bag of experiences for its patrons. While some praise the friendly staff, great atmosphere, and delicious food, others complain of salty, overcooked meals and rushed service. The decor, music, and variety on the menu are highlighted as positive aspects. Some reviewers vow to never return, feeling disappointed by the experience. The diner-style atmosphere creates a nostalgic vibe for many customers, with some enjoying the 50's decor and the musical ambiance. Desserts and drinks, including shakes, floats, and donuts, are highly recommended by those who have visited.
