    Off the chart noisy. But the holidays are upon us! Food and service were great but the two of us couldn't hear ourselves talk due the loud, intoxicated people at the bar next to us.

    Great service and fairly affordable considering. A packed house so a bit cramped and noisy but nothing to where we couldn’t enjoy each other’s company.

    The Bucket doesn’t disappoint. Due to ambulation challenges, we requested a table close to the host stand—the Bucket accommodated! The Turkey Reuben was fabulous as was the Buffalo chicken sandwich-yum! We were pleased to purchase the gift card special as well. Our server, Giovanni, was energetic, knowledgeable and engaged. He went the extra mile when we were leaving by assisting us with the doors. What great customer service! Thanks, Rusty Bucket, for another great dining experience.

    Took our 2 granddaughters who go regularly. The waiter knew them and was so accommodating and friendly. The girls loved their meal and so did we!

    The service was amazing but did not match the food quality. When did Rusty Bucket get so expensive. We ended with the chocolate cake which tasted like it was defrosted, very disappointing
