We had a toddler in our party and our server went out of her way to make it a good experience for her and therefore, for all of us.

We enjoyed our nachos! Drinks were awesome... especially the blueberry drink! Burger were large, and tacos were tasty and large portions!

Need to check each table to ensure it is level. We were in on 3/17 for my bday and we asked to move from a booth because it was so wobbly. Today, we were taken to the same wobbly booth and I asked again for another table. Here is the deal - why did it happen twice - I only ask as I am a partner in CMR and I know the training and standards we set out for all of the restaurants - including RBs. Please ensure the tables and chairs are in good working order before opening.

Excellent restaurant in a great location. Service was outstanding and food was very good. Atmosphere is very fun but also great for families. We went as a party of 7 with 3 kids and were served very quickly. We'll go back next time we're in town for sure!

Great food and happy hour prices were awesome. Great service, and it was quiet due to the time of day. But would be good even if it was a little loud with more of a crowd. lunch date was a success ?

Awesome experience, had the wings and chicken tenders. Food was perfect, also had an old fashion with Gary’s blend of Woodford reserve. Awesome drink, bartender was excellent. And a true master of libations. Great beer menu also.

Christina C was spectacular in her service. Not only was she absolutely on top of her drink refills (something I think is rare) she really helped out with figuring out with what drink to get. Margarita suffice to say definitely hit the spot. Would come again!

Every time we are in Columbus, we eat here, sometimes twice! I've tried something different to eat each time. Nothing has been bad, you will not be disappointed! Yummy drinks too and a sports atmosphere.

Absolutely stellar experience at The Rusty Bucket Tavern! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with a warm, inviting atmosphere. The food was exceptional—every dish was crafted to perfection and bursting with flavor. A special shoutout to our server, Christina, who made the evening unforgettable. Her attention to detail, friendly demeanor, and genuine care for us and our dining experience elevated the night. She was attentive without being overbearing and made excellent recommendations that suited our tastes perfectly. If you’re looking for a top-notch dining experience with fantastic service, The Rusty Bucket Tavern is the place to be, and Christina is the server you hope to have. Highly recommend!
