★★★☆☆ 3.0 SV · Dec 2025

The names speaks for itself, its definitely rusty :/ Water smells odd, plus their poor ventilation will leave you smelling like food when you leave.. food is very mediocre probably your basic Sysco type of food, that is thrown into oven to reheat But $18 for a burger is pretty high, fries was good and crunchy, but bacon was stale. And ranch was really sour, never taste ranch this bad, since zips is right across them and costs half the price and probably taste better. This place was probably a one time visit type of place for me.

Our waitress was very friendly. Food was so so. Pancakes were immediately unappetizing because they were so pale. Biscuits & gravy was bland, & biscuits were so hard on the bottom my knife couldn't cut them. 3 tv screens no sound. Quiet music coming from kitchen. Might return to give them another shot.

Sunday Morning at Uncle Rusty’s Diner ​If you are looking for the quintessential Sunday morning breakfast experience, look no further than Uncle Rusty’s Diner. We recently visited as a family of four, and from the moment we stepped through the doors, it was clear that this isn't just a place to eat—it’s a place to feel welcome. ​The first thing you notice is the atmosphere. We were greeted immediately by a wait staff that can only be described as "pure fun." In a world where service can often feel rushed or robotic, the team here brings a genuine energy and humor that kept our whole family smiling before the coffee even hit the table. They handled the Sunday morning rush with a level of charisma that is rare to find. ​When it came to the menu, the selection was impressive. Whether you are

Went as a group of 7, all food was cold or barely warm, overall the food was not good. My wife threw up as soon as we got home. My drink had a floaty in it. We were the only people in the restaurant on a Saturday night which says a lot about this place. Food took exceptionally long to come out for being only us in the restaurant. Service was otherwise great and it's an awesome atmosphere. If this place doesn't get a good chef soon idk how much longer they will make it. They only offer the most basic of meals. I'm not sure how we all got pretty awful meals. Was my first and last time here. We collectively got prime rib, burger, max and cheese, breakfast dishes.

Got the Hungry Man. Eggs cooked perfectly! Sausages were delicious. Bacon perfect. A little light on the hash browns but they were very tasty. Then she brought out my pancakes and I was like ok- that’s gotta come home with me (much much bigger than I expected! Haven’t tried them yet). Great service. Good food. Came out fast and was exactly as expected. Fair pricing too! Even with my tip it came out to like 25-30 bucks each for two of us. Will be back especially since it’s within walking distance of where I live.
