Let's start by saying what a great Happy hour location. We were there at 5pm on a Thursday and was not very busy initially, but got busier the longer we were there. Happy hour is 20% off signature cocktails and apps. They have a good selection of apps and cocktails for the happy hour, with great bartenders who make them up for you. We did have to wait a minute for the cocktails but it was understandable as they were involved and they were also doing prep work for the on coming crowd that showed up. We did get an app I forgot to take a picture of which was the pretzel rolls with a delicious melted smoked Gouda dip and sweet mustard dip. They were fresh and hot with no complaints. I highly recommend stopping here for bites and happy hour.

The food was very good. Menu has great diversity without being to big. We had the pork chop it was perfectly cooked and so flavorful. The staff was wonderful. The only downside r the parking. It was hard to find parking.

My friend and I went to Brunch at RusTeak Thorton Park on a Sunday and happened to order the special. A burger on a waffle bun with bacon, egg, cheese and drizzled with maple syrup. It was unbelievably delicious. The syrup was just a hint so enhanced the flavor of the burger without overpowering it. The accompanying herb fried potatoes were also delicious and the portion huge. My dining partner agreed with this assessment and we both took home half to enjoy for another meal. My husband only got one bite (to taste it) but it was just as good the next day! I had the Espresso Martini which was one of the best I have ever had. The manager stopped by to check on us and get feedback, always a great sign when they truly want to know.

This was my first time trying Rusteak near Lake Eola. I went there for their Magical Dining menu. Everything was great about the experience and menu. Our waiter did a great job walking through all the dining options for us. For appetizer I got the crab cakes. They were really good and that's a compliment since I was born and raised in MD! The main course I got the NY strip steak which was also good. It came with mash potatoes and spinach. For dessert my wife tried the pistachio pudding and I had the carrot cake. Both desserts were really big portions and tasted great. I'm not a dessert person but it was pretty good. At this point I could hardly eat. Overall this place was good. I'll definitely try again. They also had some solid craft beer options if you're a craft beer drinker.

Went this past Saturday night to dinner with another couple. We decided on RusTeak because none of us had been before and it had great other reviews. The food was yummy and fairly quick. Our service wasn't so great but it was a busy night. Our appetizer was delivered without silverware so until we could flag down another employee our corn cakes sat on the table. My boyfriend got the steak sandwich which was tasty but the steak pieces were so large that it was very difficult to eat. The pecan chicken was just ok. We will probably return to try some other things.

Another successful & enjoyable brunch at RusTeak. Whenever I'm faced with the decision of where to go for a last minute brunch outing, this spot usually comes to mind first - Their fresh, delicious food & generous portions continuously have me returning. We had the sweetest server yesterday, Camielle, who was very friendly & attentive. Our mains were taking a bit longer than usual to make their way out to us, which she acknowledged and thanked us for our patience. Always have friendly servers here but she really stood out! The crab cakes were some of the best I've had in a while, especially paired with the old bay aioli which was extremely tasty. The spinach crab salad was satisfying (just wish it had a little more crab, or rather chunkier pieces). I tried the "Thnks Fr th Mmrs" brunch cocktail which I absolutely loved! So refreshing. The passion fruit flavor was very prominent which I was a big fan of. If you're a live music person, you'll be happy to know they have live music during Sunday brunch (during my last visit it was on the patio, but this visit it was indoors). Always an outstanding experience here! Hands down one of the best brunches in the Thornton Park / downtown area.

Posting the happy hour details for your viewing pleasure! Happy hour is every day of the week from 4-7pm and late night on Friday and Saturday! Great location in the heart of Thornton park within walking distance to so many other shops. Add this to your happy hour list!
