Ordered the black bean burger, came with thick cut fries. Was a great afternoon lunch stop. Beautiful restaurant. Clean. Open space. Modern/rustic. I appreciated the small menu with options of vegan friendly items clearly stated. Gluten Free option available.

Hostesses was Not accommodating at all!!! There were 2 in our party she seated us in a middle table after we asked for a table along the side. She said those were for parties of 4. Which I could understand if they were busy but there were all of 4 total tables being used with lots of open ones, plus there was one along the side for 2 which she wouldn't seat us at. The next she opened the big garage door and we were cold and asked her to close it, she did but with Alot of attitude, she must realize she's running around we're sitting. The waitress never asked us how we liked our food or if we wanted anything else. I would of liked a glass of water. Prices are high, Chicken Pot Pie is 1/2 the price in Appleton and just as good, with more sides to chose from and bigger. Started out bad and didn't get better. First impressions usually tell the story.

I love the decor and vibe of the Rusted Roost; it gave me the impression of high-end food, and I was prepared to pay for it. I'm always looking for superb upper-crust food joints and am happy to pay accordingly for that sound, foodie experience. Unfortunately, this was not that. :-(
The restaurant was minimally busy, serving approximately 3-5 other tables. Of course, I ordered the Wagyu burger. I'm bougie like that! One of my lunch companions ordered the same burger as me. We were starved and ready to eat, so we anxiously awaited these burgers... for 40 minutes. The server approached our table, handing us our plates so we could place them on our spot in front of us. I immediately noticed the burger was the shape and thickness of a frozen patty, and my heart sunk to the pit of my empty stomach. Okay, I can deal with a frozen patty if the texture, juiciness, and flavor are there, but I don't want a frozen Wagyu patty. If I'm paying wagyu prices, I'd prefer fresh hand-pressed meat. And why did the server ask us how we wanted the wellness of our burger cooked if the patty was too thin to accommodate any special cooking instruction? Typically, a medium-rare burger takes less than 40 minutes to cook. Needless to say, the texture, juiciness, and flavor were not there, but the steak fries were pretty good if you ate only the hot ones. The tiny, overpriced specialty drink was tasty, though! We paid $100 (including tip) for three meals, one mixed specialty adult cocktail, a Blue Moon beer, and a soda.
Decor and ambiance can take you so far, but as consumers grow foodie-savvy, places like this will have to up their game.
Note to my readers: Just so you know, the crab cakes are made with the cheapest, mushiest crab that food service can buy, so if you know crab cake well, you'll be disappointed if you order them here.
We won't return.
Sidebar: I just read other reviews and see that Rusted Roost automatically adds a 20% tip to their bills without notifying you. Perhaps that is why our bill was so high for just three people. Diners beware.

Had dinner here last night....the atmosphere was cool. Our server was great! There were plenty of drink options and the food menu had great spunding options. The 4 of us all got something different from fish fry to the pollo en crema. As we were finishing up with our bill with the server, she mentioned thst there was a bar / outdoor patio upstairs.
We went upstairs and spent another hour and a half up there listing to great live tunes while enjoying drinks from the bar. Our 1st time didn't disappoint at all....we'll be back for another date night!! Thanks!

Great food, atmosphere, & drinks. Satisfactory service. Would have considered making it a regular spot, but $4 for soda water, practically the price of beer or half the cost of a cocktail, is pretty ridiculous. Unfortunately will not be a continued patron.
