| - I have been here on three separate occasions. First, my fiance had some friends that came to visit here, the second time was dinner with a friend and the last time was a company event. I never left this place impressed and for the dollar, there are a lot better places to visit.
Meal: I have had the ribs, ribeye, and burger here. I almost always have a mason jar full of beer!
Taste: It isn't that the food is bad, but its expensive for what you pay for it. I wouldn't grade the quality of the meal any better than say an Applebees or Chilis. It is medium quality food that has been crafted more towards pleasing simple appetites and a board base instead of really striving for something wonderful. 7 out of 10.
Value: Meal is overpriced given the quality of the meal. Portions wise, its ok. But if I am paying for near Ruth's Chris or Flemmings prices, I expect better meals than what I received in the past. 2 out of 5.
Service/Cleanliness: I have never had bad service here but I haven't had service that really stood out either. 7 out of 10.
Atmosphere: This is what makes Rusler's Rooste "Rustler's Rooste." The views of the city are amazing. Even though I dislike country, the live bands make the experience enjoyable. And how could I forget the slide? I do take the slide to the dinning area every time I go. And those who don't are schmucks! 5 out of 5.
Overall: I could take it or leave this place. I am not upset that I got a meal here, but I am not planning my next trip. I think the only reason I would go back is if a friend or family member from out of town really wanted a different, unique Phoenix dining experience. But if you are willing to pay an extra $10 per plate for an exceptional meal, I recommend taking that option instead of going to Rustler's Rooste. 20 out of 30 points, 2 out of 5 stars.
