Rusty Bucket Restaurant and Tavern

We went to the Rusty Bucket on New Years Eve. We were seated promptly and our food and drinks came in a timely manner. I ordered the fried pickle appetizer. These were the best fried pickles I have ever had. The beer batter was perfect and they were very large spears as if they were cut there. Sadly the onion rings didn't have the same batter. They were ok but mostly went uneaten. It group tried many things, I went for the Buffalo chicken sandwich. It was very good but didn't have the standard Buffalo flavor. My husband had the mushroom pizza, he loved it. Our friends had the meatloaf, the salmon salad and beef stroganoff. Good reviews from all. My friend really liked that her salmon was served beside the salad rather than in top. It was noted the meatloaf had a great flavor. Those who had missed drinks enjoyed those as well. All in all great meal.

Great happy hour specials - half price apps, $12 pizza and $7 burger. Something for everybody. Our server Alexis was phenomenal. She told us about their drink specials and we’ll be back on Sunday for their Bloody Mary special.

We had the create your own pizza and buffalo chicken sandwich. This place is a must stop in the Cincinnati area. Excellent service and good food!

Jo was our server and she was wonderful! We had a big group and she was on top of it. She gave suggestions and made the night fun. Definitely recommend this restaurant.

My boyfriend and I stopped in for a late lunch on a weekday. We sat at the bar and enjoyed chatting with the bartender (I wish I remembered her name!). I had the simple salad with the house dressing. It was a good size and had homemade croutons. We shared an appetizer of Brussels sprouts, which were crispy and delicious. My boyfriend had the buffalo chicken salad with fries. The chicken was a huge portion and fries were crispy and seasoned. The prices were very reasonable as well. We had a great experience and I would definitely recommend this spot for lunch!

A friend just brought me here and I was blown away by the Sicilian pizza! Wow just wow. my friend says her salmon was so delicious. I give a 5/5 because of service and quality of food. The table was higher up and being a tall person, I felt very comfortable. The host opened the door as I left and it was a kind gesture. Lovely establishment. Ding Dong!

A work friend suggested to try. My family went for mother's day. First time there. Maggie was so excellent and very nice! Very highly recommend!

Tony at Oakley location was fabulous!!! He made our whole lunch so much better! Very kind and warm and friendly. We will be back! Diane and Mary Ann

Food was really good, service was excellent, and Maggie was very professional at the bar. I absolutely love this place. I'll definitely be back on my birthday. Maggie is an absolute OG and very nice

We came for dinner after a movie. I enjoyed a Hot Brown special and my bud had the meatloaf, mashed and green beans and beers. The food and service were excellent; I thought the meals and beer were a bit overpriced $16-$18 for the entrees but that seems typical these days. I would suggest a few more local craft beers added on tap also. We both brought home pizza for our wives and the restaurant was kind to make a custom "white spinach pizza" for her. Highly recommended. Deano

Got the Cobb salad and it was amazing! Fresh ingredients...including the freshly cooked crispy bacon

The food was very good and the portions were large. Service was fast and very attentive.

We were driving around town looking for somewhere to eat, and this place looked nice, so we decided to eat. We sit down and decide to share a cuban sandwich. They brought refreshments constantly and was always checking in. The sandwich was allready put onto two separate plates and was AMAZING! We decide to order dessert, and the waitress recommends the brownie skillet. I can't even begin to describe it. It was half cooked, in a good way! The brownie was practically a hot brownie mix with caramel drizzle and vanilla ice cream. The atmosphere was chill, the staff was polite and friendly, and very little wait. This was a great meal.

Our group of 10 friends found this new place to go to. We dine out once a week. The food and service were great.

I got takeout I usually dine in. My chili was half full and cold. My chicken wasn’t cooked enough and I didn’t receive my sauces!! I’m a condiment person, so it’s important that I have the sauces needed to enjoy my food

Very good food. I had a hamburger on my most recent visit and beef stroganoff on a different visit. Both were very good! I would highly recommend trying this place.

Great food. The interior felt a bit like an Applebee's, but the food was excellent. The fried pickles come as spears, which was new to me, but I think it was tastier. The perogies were also great, but mostly due to the amazing sauerkraut.

Good space, nice Bar with nice pours and friendly neighborhoods upscale bar and grill vibe and friendly staff. Food is consistently very good. The fries are great!!! as is the meatloaf, the soy salmon, their personal size pizzas (still huge), the cheesesteak, the ruben, you get the picture. 😉

I have eaten there with my kids and it's pricy but the food is good, especially the fish and chips.

I liked this restaurant, it was not very crowded and it has a pretty large sitting area. The staff is very welcoming and respectful. The food was very good. We had some drinks along with quesadilla, pizza and both items were delicious. It is an ideal place to hangout with friends and relax.
