Best Philly cheesesteak I’ve had in a while. My boyfriend had the mushroom, Swiss burger. Just so you know, the cheesesteak does not come with lettuce (the picture shows lettuce), I just took my boyfriend’s because he doesn’t eat it. Everything was cooked to perfection....The food was absolutely tasty and the service was impeccable. Especially for the fact that the restaurant was packed and it was only one server. Her name? Samantha! I don’t know how she managed to remember my extra order of coke along the lines of the large families and groups that were ordering as well. She made the experience much better. She is a trooper. Thanks Samantha! I hope to revisit in the future ☺️☺️More

Okay meal in an okay atmosphere.

Today we walked next door to Rustlers from our hotel for a bite to eat before heading back to Bryce NP. My expectations weren't super high going in. My family of 4 adults were seated right away in a back booth by a side door...that goes out to outdoor seating area. Our waiter was new on the job and couldn't answer too many questions - not a big deal, we all got to start somewhere. I ordered the fish and chips, the rest of the family ordered the fried shrimp. I got a corn "coblette" (half a corn cob) and fries with my meal. I'm sorry to say I was not pleased with my fish. I swear it looks like the fish you buy in the frozen food section of the grocery store and pop in the oven and serve. I'm not sure what type of fish it was (I'm guessing cod) but it was not tasty even when it was dipped in tartar sauce. My family seemed to enjoy their shrimp just fine, they said it was "okay". But the price for this meal is the kicker. $66 without the tip for "okay" food is a little much. But, when you're one of a few restaurants in town I guess that's how it goes.More

Nice little restaurant with excellent service and friendly people.

Nice little restaurant on the side of Hwy 12. Stopped here for lunch on our way to do some hiking. Wonderful patio to enjoy your food. Food was good, nothing special but what made this a 5 star was the service. From the host to...the waiter they were on it and took care of us.More

Decent place for the money

This was an OK place considering the restaurant where we were staying was extremely expensive. We found the service to be slow, but were in no hurry. I had a meal of chicken fried chicken that was pretty good. My wife had barbecue chicken and...found it to be dry without much sauce, hence, not much taste. Not a bad place to eat for a spot in the road. Happy traveling!More

Great and Gracious

We are visiting Bryce Canyon National Park and have eaten at Rustler's Restaurant for two nights in a row. This is so worth the short drive down Highway 12 from Bryce. The first night we had terrific burgers and some local beer. The sweet potato...fries are delicious. This second night, we came tearing in about 10 minutes before closing (intending to quickly and simply order two salads). Our server, Tysheena, was unflustered by our timing and completely welcoming and gracious. Our salads were fresh and tasty. I especially loved the lemony grilled shrimp atop mine. We found the service at Rustler's both times to be quick and friendly. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting this part of the country.More

Worth the short drive from Bryce! Delicious food!

If you are visiting Bryce Canyon and are looking for a great meal, get in your car and drive the 9 miles to Tropic, UT. There you will find Rustler’s Restaurant. This is a down home local place dishing up great food in healthy portions....We had the smothered burrito with chicken (wow the green chili sauce was amazing!), chicken quesadillas (the best we have ever had!), and the Fairyland chicken. All were delicious and the chef in the kitchen really knows Mexican cuisine. The portions were so large we left with boxes in hand. It was so good we went back the next night to enjoy another great meal. We had the same server both nights, Renee, who was pleasant and efficient.More

Average food. Slowest service ever

the restaurant was 90% empty but it took about ten minutes for the host to seat us. No idea why. Something about them catching up? Menu was sticky. "Fresh " bread tasted chewy, like it was microwaved. We got BBQ. It was ok at best....Service was even slower once we sat down. I think we were there over 90 minutes for a simple meal w no dessert. I would not recommend.More
