Don't order the New York Strip steak! I order one cooked medium rare and got more gristle than meat. The person or cook gave me $4 off a $28 steak. The waiter was wonderful, the rest of the food was good, and the booth was okay. They have the table too close to the seats which make it hard to get in and out of, especially if you're plus size, like me.

We like the Rusty Bucket. The food, service, and environment is always good. Price might be a little above average but they serve quality food and a good size portion. Definitely recommend this restaurant

Our server made all the difference! He was genuinely friendly, helpful and attentive! He let us camp a bit and catch up (and yes we were mindful-there were plenty of empty tables). Salmon salads were delish!

Always treated well at this location. Jolisa, our server, did not disappoint. We had several members of our party arrive at different times and she was quick to help each one upon their arrival.
