Not a good experience, unfortunately. Had a bartender, she was a shorter Latina girl, I believe her name was Lo. Very disrespectful to patrons and spent so much time badmouthing instead of pouring drinks and entertaining. Even the other patrons were rolling their eyes. The food was actually pretty good. The atmosphere is nice other than the negative energy from the bartender girl. The place seems pretty clean, but it was evening, so kinda dark. Overall, I'd rather go somewhere else. The main reason I go to a bar is to socialize with positive, fun people. This wasn't the vibe. Boo.

I got 2 tacos, wife got grilled shrimp bowl and 2 chicken tenders kids meals. Tacos were not good. Meat rather tough. The grilled shrimp bowl was so salty, shrimp, beans, rice... all of it was very, very salty. So salty in fact half of the meal could only be consumed. The kids chicken tenders were way overcooked. I asked my daughter if she likes her food. She said it's hard. I said hard? So I grabbed a tender, took a bite and after biting into the tender it was so tough in fact I could not pull the remaining tender out of my mouth. 3 meals, 3 regrets. I feel bad about suggesting to try this place. Won't go back. Oh the sprite is flat as well.

Loved Rustys when it first came out but jts significantly declining as time goes on the quality of the guests they attract and the food are going down hill when it first opened it was me and my families faviorite places but each time we go slightly more and more disappointed. The food gets worse taco of the month was missing from the menu this time which was a fun thing I always ordered. Secondly the resteraunt had people at the bar that kep howling as loud as they could like animals or something weird which sure do your thing but after evereytime they did it they turned around and stared at me and my family unsure if they were trying to get a rise out of us but we pretended to not notice them as we had been the entire meal rheres fun and theres clearly trying to annoy the peoolie around you but mainly what's gojng on with the food the tacos used to be so good and now I'm just left wanting wapo taco is less fun but better flavored and is less loud and annoying and cheaper prices would reccomend them if you want tacos and yes I'll delete this review if they ever fix them selves
Kid-friendliness: With the behavior of the people at the bar I do not reccomend coming with your kids starting to focus on alcohol over food quality in my opinion a good place to get drunk though if that's your thing

We eat here often, and the food is usually good. However, our recent delivery experience through the restaurant’s website was disappointing. After receiving an email advertising a new burrito, we decided to try it. Unfortunately, when our order arrived, the burrito was missing.
My husband called the restaurant to clarify, but the gentleman who answered interrupted him mid-explanation with a dismissive “We didn’t get it.” The responses were short and apathetic, and we were informed that they don’t carry the burrito—even though it was listed on their website and we were charged for it.
Eventually, the call was handed over to the owner, who repeated the same explanation and issued a refund for the burrito. However, there was no proactive communication from their side; they hadn’t planned to inform us about the missing item.
If you’re planning to order delivery, I recommend using DoorDash instead. It’s much easier and the service is friendlier.

We went today for lunch and had the most awful experience. The minute we started ordering the man taking our order was overwhelmed after saying one food item and then took a phone call (while we were ordering) saying "when are you coming in??? We're SLAMMED".
There were three people in line at at most 10 others in the restaurant.
Our food was wrong, of course, and they accused us of not paying for an item, even though we had. When we pointed it out they were obviously irritated that we caught it.
The man making the food was making the food with an un-gloved hand.
Someone else in our party waited 20 minutes longer than us for two tacos and her shrimp was raw.
We're not coming back. Terrible
Great service & great food. Margs while you wait, can't beat it. They have a bar & beer on tap. Trivia on Wednesday nights & live music from time to time. Had a good time with regulars.

I love this place, the food is so good and affordable! It's our Sunday regular date night and I can't say enough great things about this place. The only negative critique is about their cleaning supplies. I don't like the sent.
Vegetarian options: Black beans are so good and the veggie taco is great too.

Shouldn't have to wait over 40 minutes for 2 tacos. Just gonna add on here, I canceled my order and asked for a refund. The manager voided my order and said it'd go back to my card. It's now been 10 days without getting my money back. This place is the most untrustworthy and incompetent restaurant I've ever stepped foot in.

I used to love this place but I was MEGA disappointed with my to go order today. The fish tacos have gone way downhill. The fish was super dry, almost tasted like it was old. The taco itself was just dry and bland and I couldn’t even finish it. I ordered 3 hoping they weren’t all that bad and they were :( I was so bummed out and felt like a waste of money.
I think the people who left bad reviews were looking for authentic Mexican tacos. THIS PLACE IS AMAZING, BUT IT'S TEX MEX FUSION! your not going to get carne asada, it's FUN, FLAVORFUL AND THE FRIED 🐔 TACO (S) ARE BOMB! there was live music the Thursday we went and awesome service!

Tacos are always the best. Margaritas hit the spot. Monthly tacos are fun to try. Never have a bad time at rusty taco! The service is great and attentive. Also the queso is yum. We also love trivia night every Wednesday! Fun music and great TVs for watching games
