Went there because it was advertised that they had award winning bbq. Got the brisket. It was dry and terrible. Had to ask for additional sauce to lubricate the meat to swallow. My wife had the tuna poke bowl. She said the taste wasn’t bad but the avocado was over ripe and therefore mushy and mixed with rice and tuna it was overall very mushy dish. Kids loved their chicken fingers.

Our Experience at Rusty’s at Blue was absolutely horrible. In today’s day and age times are tough and things are expensive. When you take your family or date out for dinner, you expect a good time. I took my wife and daughter here for dinner this weekend. We sat on the patio and the service was half decent. The service was about the only thing that was half decent. There was a bees nest in the umbrella we were sitting under. We were seated next to the out door bar. Another waiter cleared another table and left the plates from that table on bar right beside our heads where the scrap meat sat out in the sun and brought a tone of fly’s that were all over us and the food. I ordered the brisket and the came out freezing cold. And the coleslaw and beans were pre packaged and looked like they had been sitting in the kitchen for the whole day. My wife ordered a chicken sandwich that looked like lower quality then McDonald’s. Also the soda was completely flat and refiles were 5 dollars. Believe it or not we are not picky people but this was a horrible experience and I do not recommend this place to anyone at all.

Amazing food. We went during the height of summer tourist season and in a day when live music was playing. If you wanted to have a quiet conversation, it wasn’t the right atmosphere. There were none of the non-alcoholic beverages mentioned on the menu available and no dessert, although we were celebrating a birthday.

Initially it took some time for a hostess to greet us. I was standing at the stairs with another couple for at least 3-4 mins. A man who was gardening had to go inside to get someone. The couple left because of the wait. Service after that was better and our waiter was good. My husband and children enjoyed their food but mine was terrible. I had the chicken/ avocado flatbread. It had no flavour and the bread was hard as a rock. I should have sent it back but I didn’t want to wait again for food .
