Three of us went on a Sunday and sat in the restaurant area (not the bar). Our server was nice, maybe new or inexperienced, but we weren’t in a hurry. They had an End of Summer menu which was very limited, burger or walleye, so we all got burgers. Really good burger, charbroiled and cooked medium the way we like it (even though we weren’t asked) but the only issue was the bun. Too thin so it fell apart almost immediately. Came with kettle chips. Overall good meal. Drinks...
The Rusty Cup is a great place to enjoy a relaxing dinner and drink with a BEAUTIFUL view of the lake! The have a wonderful drink menu with a wide variety of Moscow Mules! I HIGHLY recommend the walleye sandwich and the hangover burger! Service was GREAT with a fun atmosphere.

Vegetarian options: They have a lovely veggie beyond burger and an amazing house salad.

Kid-friendliness: Very accommodating for kids.
Meh. Chicken and wild rice soup was too salty. Parmesan Pancho crusted walleye was bland, very little 'snap' to the crust. Wild rice was chewyer than normal. Brussel sprouts were fine. Not worth the $31 IMO.
