Rusty's is a no-fuss deli that has been a Charlotte staple for years. With a selection of regular sandwich, hot deli sandwiches and salads to choose from. The setup is probably the only downside to Rustys. If you're not a fan of standing in line, this is probably not the place for you during the mad lunch rush. You will stand in a line to order at a counter, and then stand in another cafeteria-style line to check out and receive your order.
While the sandwiches and french fries may have been what made Rustys "Charlotte Famous", don't sleep on the cheeseburgers. They are sneaky wonderful.
