A local favorite, a little bit off the beaten path, but worse looking for it. Very friendly and timely service, really good food, and a great menu that everybody will find something on that they like. If you're vegan, that last comment may be inaccurate ;-). You gotta try the milkshakes, this reminds me of what I was used to growing up at some of the great family restaurants in the 1970s. Outstanding! The interior of the restaurant is decorated with an eclectic Western theme and your eyes will never get tired of looking for all the details. Our granddaughter loved it! And so did the grandparents and my dad. We'll be back.

The inside can be quite loud as this is a family and kid friendly restaurant. The other times I sat outside in the covered area. The food is delicious, no matter what you try. Gather your favorite friends, and split a bottle of wine on the outdoor patio. Service has been great and no so great, it really depends on the day and how busy it is. B

After being seated, our waitress greeted us briefly and then disappeared. It took about 20 minutes to place our order because she never came back to the table. She didn't appear busy or overwhelmed--most of the time, she seemed to be in the kitchen. When she eventually returned, she brought our drinks and, later, our plates, but the plates were dirty and still had food on them. She set them down and walked away without noticing or addressing them. Once our food arrived, it was actually good, which was the one positive part of the experience. However, she never checked on us--not once--to see if we needed anything. At the end of the meal, she brought the card machine so we could pay and then walked away again without returning. We also asked for a to-go box, which never came. We eventually had to go to the bar and ask another staff member for one ourselves before leaving. Overall, the food was fine, but the service was consistently inattentive and frustrating from start to finish. Given that the restaurant wasn't busy, this was disappointing, and I hope they improve their level of service.

Well, as much as hate giving bad reviews, this evenings meal at Rustlers was a big disappointment…read more Granted we did eat later than we generally do but that shouldn't affect the quality of the food. The Waite staff is fine and friendly, no issues there. The problem is the meal. The salads were fresh and really good. I ordered the teriyaki steak and my wife got the short ribs. Both of us got loaded potatoes and the veggies. Veggies were hot but like mush. I'm guessing Birds Eye frozen from a bag. No bueno. The loaded potatoes were lukewarm. The terryaki state was okay since you can hide flavors with the sauce. My wife's plate only varied with her choice of ribs that were done but dry. Overall it was quite underwhelming. I've been here many times (breakfast mostly) and before when it was Dutch mothers. Hate to say it, but it was poorly executed and a dismal experience. Sorry, rustlers, ya need to improve.

The restaurant was impeccably clean and nicely decorated although a bit dated. Service was fast and friendly although my request for ranch dressing for my fries somehow got translated to tartar sauce... I wasn't upset though because I also like tartar sauce on my fries. The food was fine, a Clubhouse sandwich and a Rueben. The Rueben could have used more corned beef and less sauerkraut in my opinion. Both had huge piles of fries. I think instead of so many fries they could give the plate a nice crunchy pickle. The Clubhouse was very large but again the meat portions were lacking. No real complaints, only a couple suggestions. I think we'll be back. There are more items on the menu that we want to try.

Good food, great staff.

I've driven by this place COUNTLESS times while visiting my mother in Lynden and always say, "Gee,…read moreI should stop in there." And then I'm by the cemetery (which is beside it) and don't feel like turning around and end up at McDonalds or something. But I finally decided to stop. I'm pretty glad I did. The menu is very simple, with burgers and cheeseburgers, and an option to double the patty and/or double the cheese. Which I admit was a little confusing at first: A double cheeseburger had two patties and one slice of cheese, but a double-double had two patties and two slices. Okay.... Fries or rings are ordered on the side and I got myself an individual order. I cannot remember if other options were available, though I know they offered hot dogs and, I think, grilled cheese. The soda machine was behind the counter, so I ordered a large. I'm not sure if refills were complimentary, but my general policy is to not ask that, as I hate going up to a person and asking for refills when I'm at a fast food place. I just assume it's not free refills, or else they'd place it for self-service. And I dislike that greatly. Just me. The burger itself was great, though! It looked hand-formed, was grilled right there, and came out super hot. The fries were perfect, crispy and not burned and very enjoyable. The burger was somewhat smallish for it's $4.50 price tag, but honestly, it was pretty good and I didn't feel like I got cheated out of anything. I suggested my mother check this place out, as she is a burger fanatic. So I guess I liked it pretty well.
