    We had always kind of dodged the Rusty Bucket. Not for any good reason, but we'd never tried it over anything else. Last night we decided to give it a go. Man, we underestimated this place. The service was extremely friendly but not pushy or intrusive. The food was tasty and a good value. The 32oz beer was a solid value, and the brown bag can surprise was fun and also a solid value. Don't get me wrong, this isn't cheap eats. It is, however, reasonable prices for a family dinner at a 'sit down' restaurant and sports bar. We'll be back.

    Ben m was our server that is not very friendly. We’ve had him a few times now. Was hoping it was just a fluke the other times. But he is not friendly, gets annoyed. If you make any changes to the food, you’re ordering, doesn’t smile, and has no personality. we come back will definitely be asking not to be seated in his section.

    Wish I remembered our server’s name. She was excellent. Very friendly and professional. Sat in the bar area and watched some of The Masters golf. We never felt rushed. Food was served promptly and hot. Very enjoyable evening.

    Wait staff was outstanding. We made a reservation in the bar area so we could watch the women’s NCAA final four and she worked hard to get a tv tuned to the game we wanted to watch. She was also great getting our order submitted.

    We sat at bar table and the service was great! My friend is GF for medical reasons and the server (also the bartender) was thoughtful on how she entered the order.
