Rusty's Bistro Reviews
This place is terrible, Chef Andrew was better
Bad food, previous chef was better
The food was top notch or as our outstanding server (Blake) put it "they make everything the hard way, from scratch". We liked it so much we booked a table for New Years Eve and again were wowed by the food and the service. The one drawback was the host stand supervisor. She was snotty and imperious and could really use some training in basic customer service. Once you make it past her you will be rewarded with a wonderful and memorable meal. I would highly recommend the place...read full review

Rusty's Bistro offers a delightful dining experience with exceptional service. The seafood pasta and limoncello cake remain standout dishes, while the attentive staff, including friendly servers like Brian, make guests feel valued and pampered. Reviewers highly recommend this establishment for its consistent excellence and warm reception.
Guests praise the professional and engaged staff, noting that they provide excellent service even during busy times. The crusted calamari piccata appetizer is highly recommended, and the salads and desserts, such as pineapple upside down cake and sticky toffee pudding, are delicious. The filet mignon is cooked perfectly medium rare and tender. Many visitors enjoy special meals, like the beautiful 3-course Easter meal with shrimp cocktail, prime rib, and key lime cheesecake. While some guests have preferences for specific servers, the staff's professionalism and kindness make every visit memorable. Rusty's Bistro continues to be a favorite for its great food and attentive service, making it a must-visit spot in the Clearwater area.
