Rusty's Ranch House

Rusty’s Ranch House in Cedar City, Utah was an outstanding dining experience from start to finish! Ron met us with a big smile as we walked in. The atmosphere was welcoming, the food was incredible, and our server Casey truly made the night exceptional. Casey was knowledgeable, attentive, and offered fantastic recommendations that did not disappoint. We started with the coconut shrimp—perfectly crispy with amazing flavor. The bone-in ribeye was cooked to perfection, juicy and full of flavor, and the filet paired with barbecue ribs was an absolute winner—tender, smoky, and delicious. Save room for dessert because the house-made bread pudding was the perfect sweet ending to an unforgettable meal. Everything we tried was top-notch, and Casey’s friendly service and menu expertise made the experience even better. If you’re in Cedar City, Rusty’s Ranch House is a must-visit. We will definitely be back!

It is a large cabin in the mountain. Great atmosphere and friendly service. The ribeye steak was very good. It was very busy and hard to find parking. I am sure that I am not the only one who enjoyed this place. It is good for large groups as well.

Stopped here for dinner at the end of a 500 mile drive. We were hungry and tired. The staff seated us immediately and the table service was friendly and prompt. All of the food was excellent, with generous portions. Leftovers made for a tasty lunch the next day. We can't wait to come back!

The ravioli with lobster bisque is amazing. I’m always hesitant to order ravioli at a non Italian restaurant, but they did great with it. The kids chicken strips are small but very tasty, the fries and veggies were very good too The lemon drop cheesecake comes with a seedless raspberry sauce drizzled around it but not on top which is how I like it.

Great place to eat in the Cedar City area. We'll definitely be eating there again. Had the 10oz filet. It was incredible.

Great steak, fantastic service, cozy atmosphere. I came here to eat a great steak and I wasn’t disappointed. The chef did a great job, the atmosphere is rustic & cozy and Michela from the service team was very attentive & welcoming! Highly recommended. Would definitely come back when being in town next time.

As I am traveling on a budget, I eat one nice meal out in a restaurant once a week or so, and being that I was celebrating my 35th wedding anniversary away from my sweetheart, I gifted him a $50 Texas Roadhouse gift certificate and Lindt chocolate and decided I would have a steak dinner to celebrate as well. I turned to Google while in Enoch, rave reviews sent me to Cedar City to Rusty's. I thought the prices were a bit high, but I've eaten at some really nice steak houses, so if it was a good steak, it's worth paying the extra price they can demand for it. The hostess did not seem to realize I was there for dinner until I told her I wanted a table for one, she took me to a table. I explained that I'd be happy to take the table but I wanted to use the restroom first, she said she'd let my server know. My server Michaela (Kayla) while not overly friendly was attentive, listened well and did her job with a smile. She did not respond when I said, that steak must be something special at $40 for a 12 ounce ribeye. Her service was good, she explained things clearly, staged the pace of the meal well, I would have had time to finish my salad before the entree was brought out, that is a very good skill. All in all, she was the star of the night. The bread was nice and warm and tasted good, but the crust was so tough I couldn't take a bite without ripping it apart, one slice was enough for me. It was served with an ample supply of individual butter pads. As the saying goes, for the rest of the story. For a $2 upcharge, I swapped out the side salad for a side Caesar salad. The romaine lettuce what's soft, wet, and tasteless. I had to cut some pieces up with my steak knife, as that was the only knife in the napkin roll. The dressing, had no flavor and while I tried to eat it, I gave up after only a few bites and pushed it aside. The entree was served, it looked good, I cut into the steak, perfectly medium rare, that's saying a lot, it's hard to get the temperature right on steak. I paused to put butter on my veggies and baked potato. There was a seasoned butter pat on my steak, I noticed it had not even started to soften, let alone melt. Neither did the butter I placed under the veggies, nor the butter on the potatoes...it was barely melting. The food was cold. Kayla checked in to see if the temperature of the steak was right, I told her yes, it looks perfect. I didn't want to complain, so I thought about what to do. When she came back around, I ask to speak to a manager. The manager was pleasant enough, I pointed out that the butter had not melted, she seemed to immediately understand and offered to take it back and warm it up. She came back with a plate for the steak, I asked her if she could just take it all back and warm it up because it was all cold, which she did. She said she would give me a discount. When the food came back the veggies and steak were warmer and the potato was hot. Everything a bit dryer but at least it was warm. Then I started to eat the steak...I can honestly say, this was one of the worst steaks I have ever had. It was tasteless and rubbery, not at all good. I don't think I could have eaten it even if I had been offered steak sauce. So a couple bites of veggies and a quarter of my potato later, I just decided this food was not worth eating and pushed my plate away...full of food, almost untouched. Kayla ask if I would like a box, I had no, but I would like the check. There was a discount of $8.××, which brought the total to just under $40. I didn't want to leave cash on the table and took the check and my $50 bill up to the service window where another server and the manager were standing. I explained it was for Kayla, that I wasn't comfortable leaving cash on the table. There is a certain point at which I'm so frustrated, and disgusted that I can't complain any further...by then I had lost my appetite. I had planned to eat the second half of my steak dinner today...instead all I got for my $50 was disappointment!

The food was awsome. Waitress awsome. You want to get there early. No earlier.

It's been 4 years since we ate there last, the food and service were great. While once again they didn't disappoint us. We did a lady's only birthday dinner night. Awesome service, everyone was friendly, fast and efficient. Bread , salad, ribs, coconut shrimp, salmon, appetizers...Thank you

My son is attending SUU and I went to visit him and he wanted to go out to eat BBQ. I found Rusty's on Yelp and the reviews were all great. We had the brisket platter with a sweet potato & roasted vegetables, it was great, the meat was very tender & flavorful. We will definitely be going back on my next visit. Go try them, they're really good!

I love this very special place to eat. They have the best food and the waitresses are all very nice and attentive. It's a great place for special occasions.

Wonderful! They accommodated my gluten free allergy. Thank you so much. My wife order the trout. It was served cold as they intended. She really wanted it heated. They fixed it as she liked. The taste was great. I had the brisket. Wonderful. Tender. Sauce on the side. Very good bake potato. Whenever we visit again, we will return. Thank you for a lovely dinner.

Food was ok. The ribeye was tough 1/5. Salad pretty good 3/5. Salmon was good 4/5. Service was very slow.

My hubby is doing a road trip to go Elk Bunting in Colorado. He made a pit-stop and ordered the Brisket! He said it was the best brisket he has had in his entire life... he told me serval times and asked me to write a review on his behalf! So here it is folks :)

After a long day of hiking in the Grand Canyon North Rim, we were starving and came across this restaurant right off of the highway. They were closing in about 25 minutes, but seated us, brought water, delicious warm bread. Sierra was our wonderful server, and she was great! We never felt rushed. The restaurant itself is large, clean, and had a cool casual rustic atmosphere. I loved it He ordered a Ribeye medium rare with baked potato & and I ordered the petite filet medium rare with a baked potato. ...and WOW! Both of our steaks were incredible..cooked to absolute perfection, juicy, and seasoned so well. The baked potatoes and veggies were cooked well too! What a meal! If we lived locally, we would be coming here often. I took the leftover bread and some butter to the hotel with us and finished it ;)

Haven't eaten there in over a year. Rusty's has always been good never a complaint. Yada yada yada

The service was excellent! The food just wasn't as great as the service. The BBQ ribs were chewy and the chicken was dry. Bummer. The amount of food was plentiful but I would take quality over quantity any day.

Food was just ok. prices high for our economy. ambiance was good. Several years ago the food was better. my ribs were tough. chicken just ok. nothing was tender and hot. salad was ok, typical house salad. the sweet potato was ridiculous. a little brown sugar and lots of butter would be sufficient. wine was good.

Rusty's interior is rustic log type with elk, bison and other taxidermies on the walls. The food was terrific, we enjoyed the brisket and catch of the day (fish). Our server was , very busy but also quite responsive to our needs. Highly recommend Rusty's!

The service was great! Friendly and accommodating, from server to hostess and in between. The place is pleasant and clean. We had the flat iron steak and the ribeye. Sadly both meats were tough. I had the sweet potato and again I was disappointed because the regular potato comes whole but the sweet potato is only half, makes no sense. Wish the food had been as good as the service.

It is nice to still have a place that is authentic. My favorite is the coconut shrimp!

Made our way to the Ranch house on a Friday night. Got there when opened. Promptly greated and seating. We Enjoyed stakes with all the fixin's included. Nice baked potato. Excellent and friendly service. Nice ranch house atmosphere. Very much enjoyed the laid back tasty dinner. Seen you again next time Thru Cedar City.

We made a reservation for our Valentine's DinnerWe we're spending the night in Cedar City on our way to Deer Valley skiingWe couldn't have had a nicer evening. The Food is Amazing. And such generous portions. And we loved that they had a little Buckaroos and Old Timers menu. It is lucky a couple of us ordered off that menu. Way way more food than you can eat. Everything on the menu comes with Salad, Vegetables and a Potato dish of your choice. Believe it or not this far from the ocean the Coconut Shrimp is ridiculous and the Ribs to die for. Our server Cristina was so efficient and friendly as was everyone we encountered were SUPER. Ambiance is so perfect for the location. Warm Friendly, clean and lots and lots to look at. A lot of Taxidermie Trophy heads. We will Defintely be coming back yearly on our driving trips to Ski

Food was great, coconut shrimp platter, and 1/2 rack of ribs. Service was outstanding. The ranch is all knotty pine with a few trophy mounts Look on their website for the two for $40 deal.

Ambiance was fun, wine is dirt cheap, staff is somewhat friendly and food was so-so. We were starving on our way out of Bryce Canyon into Cedars City, and this was right along our path. Probably wouldn't stop again, but I wouldn't let that deter you from trying it once and seeing for yourself.

We were visiting the area and based on other customer reviews, we decided to try Rusty's. We were very happy with our choice. The staff was friendly and we were greeted (and seated) immediately...we visited at 6pm on a Thursday in June. Our waitress, Adrianne C., was amazing! She was very friendly and attentive. Great service and the food was delicious (cheese curds w/marinara, Fettucine Alfredo w/Salmon and Garlic Bread). We loved the Ranch House decor and will definitely be back on our next trip to the area.

I loved the atmosphere of Rusty's as it has the feel of an old cabin in the woods. The staff was super friendly. Unfortunately, my steak meal just wasn't what I was HIGHLY recommended here for. (hence the three star rating) I'm willing to give this place a try. Again but I've never had a restaurant score my steak before cooking to give it a totally different texture and taste. I do recommend this place for the atmosphere & great employees but be cautious if you order a steak meal...you've been warned.

A throwback experience. Eating at Rusty's feels like stepping backwards into another decade. Maybe the 1960s or 1970s. Meat and potatoes with salads heavy with cold iceberg lettuce. The walls are decorated with taxidermies heads and antique saddles. The service was attentive but not obtrusive.

Food and service were great. Onion bloom appetizer, coconut shrimp, and barbeque platter were all outstanding. Large portions so sharing is a definite consideration.

Food was delicious, service was great. We really enjoyed our meals. The coconut shrimp was HUGE! Steak was cooked just right, and the loaded sweet potato was great. We highly recommend Rusty's!!

Service was fantastic, super cheese would definitely return! Try the filet mignon and ribeye, which were both excellent

There were about 10 Corvettes in the parking lot and we were worried there was going to be a long wait time. Ron the manager ended up making room and separating a table for us as we just drove in from SLC. We had a delightful dining experience at this restaurant. The appetizers were perfectly portioned, the entrees were crafted with care, and our server, Breanna, was incredibly friendly, sweet, and skillful. A+ all around! Would definitely recommend to anybody!

Don't order the fish. The special was Cajun catfish and it was fried tilapia with a sauce that wasn't edible. Steaks were fair but it all was overpriced and marginal at best.

I loved this place all the very friendly waiters and the delicious food especially their steak house

Great place! Very busy, good food, great service! Western theme ranch house with great views of canyon.

If you want to spend $45 for a ribeye and $40 for a fillet that are tough, not tender and full of gristle then this is your place. This was our first visit here and it was a total disappointment. It was meat that was below par for the price and after complaining to the manager the only thing she said to me was well it's a ribeye. It's supposed to have gristle no comment about the fillet other than you should've told the waitress you weren't happy. That was her first mistake. She didn't care if we were happy. She didn't care if our meal was good. Our plates were returned with our steaks not eaten. She had the proof, it's different if you eat your food and then complain, that's not what happened here. She didn't care, she wanted her money no matter how unhappy we were. Save your money and go to a good steakhouse that has a manager that respects her customers and wants her customers to return because they were treated with respect and given good service and cares if three customers out of four had bad experiences with their steaks. PLEASE READ OTHER REVIEWS ABOUT THE STEAK NOT POSITIVE!!

I'm sorry to report that our experience tonight was such a disappointment. We had a party of 7 ladies, we all ordered a full meal. Several of us ordered the petite steaks, medium rare, w/salad and a sweet potato. The steaks were absolutely bland! No flavor, we had to salt every single steak ordered as well as the salmon plate. Zero seasoning yet full price!! I was hoping that it was going to be a family owned restaurant experience with flavor and service. Sadly, no. Don't waste your money or time. We all left VERY disappointed.

Our server was excellent but the food was mediocre at best. Their prices are high, considering the quality, and the ambiance is basically mid-level. The BBQ platter had good chicken, but the brisket and ribs were too tough to eat.

Staff and patrons don't wear masks. So Depending on when you read this-- do with it what you will. I'm not sure what we ate when we ordered the calamari. I'll Attach a pic. Free bread is plentiful. Salads fresh and crisp. Meat well seasoned. Ample parking. Drinkers refilled quickly. Servers Polite.

Disappointing. Can't recommend. I am surprised at the 4 star reviews I've seen on here. Sometimes I think, people are just too kind or not experienced. Three groups of us came in at 5. We are the only tables. Server brings the wrong beer, I send it back. The silverware is that thin cheap stuff- easily bent. The tablecloths are that plastic/rubber cheap stuff. The glassware is small. Like diner glasses. The beer finally came out in a larger water glass. My wife and I are thinking cheap. The food quality will be similar. It was. Salad was drenched in salad dressing- almost to the point of being inedible. The bread, sourdough, was the only high point and arrived warm. The butter was near frozen and we could not spread it. I had a ribeye which was pale and looked fried. Thin. Plenty of gristle. There was absolutely no seasoning or rub on either steak. Potatoes were puny, like no 2's from a ten pound bag. Wife's filet was woefully underdone. Not medium, not medium rare, but rare and close to raw. We can't complain about the cooking of it because the server never, ever comes back. So we can't even send my wife's filet back. When the server finally shows up- my wife is not interested in sending it back because I am already done. (We took it home and grilled it for an additional 7-8 minutes and it still wasn't medium, it was served near raw. ) We were amazed that locals came here. Texas Roadhouse beats this place in every facet- quality, price, servers, real silverware, real beer glasses. Servers actually come back and check on you frequently. If you own a steakhouse and purport to be a steakhouse- then present a quality product. If I owned this restaurant I'd be ashamed to put this stuff out there and charge people 100 bucks for dinner. I felt like a theft victim. Not going back. P.S. There are several reviews on here where the salad is bathed in salad dressing, steaks are undercooked, with no flavor. I am sorry I didn't read those reviews first and management clearly doesn't care. They are not replying and nothing has changed.

We had a gift certificate from a client to go here and we made reservations for a Saturday night. I don't believe reservations are required but I can see where they would get busy enough. We were in and out by 6:30. (From 5). This is a casual rustic place. It's open and has a nice atmosphere with western decor. All of the staff was super nice and seemed to work together well as a team. Our experience overall was good. Our server, Craig, was GREAT! One of us had coconut shrimp which was light and fluffy not greasy and a filet (wonderful piece of meat). The steak was ordered medium and it was perfect. The other of us ordered linguine with rose sauce and Tri tip. This was not so raving BUT... it is a Steakhouse. The meat was tender and pasta perfect, the sauce was just blasé. No taste to it really. The garlic toast was good. On to the sides.....potato boats were not some frozen things I don't think. They had some chunks of good sold pieces of no fat bacon meat and it wasn't just plain sour cream to dip in. The carrots were good, the sweet potato was good, the salad was pretty much just lettuce I could do at home. The ice tea was good ice tea and the raspberry cheesecake and brownie sundae were rich and good! Side note, when we sat down I had a dirty spoon and dirty bread plate. They quickly replaced it. We will go back. All in all it was a good meal and great service.

Just had dinner there with my family. Nice place, great food, and excellent service! We'll be back next time we're in Cedar City!

Great service. Food was delicious. I have eaten here several times passing through town. It's a nice rustic place to enjoy a good meal.

Our server was awesome and very attentive. I got the filet and coconut shrimp. Highly recommend!

This place was very full and busy on a Friday night but the service was still fairly quick and attentive. I had the ribeye and my husband had the filet mignon. Our daughter had the kid filet. All were cooked perfectly and tasty. The butter on top of the steak added a great taste. Would have liked more veggies not just carrots. The sweet potato was also good. The brownie dessert looked so yummy we ate it before I remembered to take a picture of it. I think it had a little too much whip cream, but still good.

Went here for our wedding dinner and it was fantastic!!! Service and food were wonderful!

The food was disappointing. My husband's steak was underwhelming. Very average. My ribs were super dry. The waiter was a bit obnoxious.

We ate here two nights in a row. The first night I ordered a brisket burger cooked medium and it was absolutely delicious. The fries were a tasty mixture of regular fries and sweet potato fries sprinkled with garlic and parmesan. The second night, after a long day of hiking, I ordered the petit filet cooked medium and coconut shrimp. The steak lacked salt but we had salt and pepper shakers at our table so that was an easy fix. The coconut shrimp were big and scrumptious. The hubby and I shared an apple cobbler with ice cream and it was a great way to end our meal. Each night we received fantastic service. The staff was very friendly. Our meals came out in a timely manner. If we are ever in the area again, we'll definitely stop by Rusty's for a meal.

Group of 6 adults and 5 kids, and we were all happy with our food! We had burgers, coconut shrimp and appetizers... all good! I really enjoyed my burger! The kids menu was great too! BUT the winner is the salads and those FRIES!! Seriously add the $2 salad and get the fries- a blend of regular and sweet potatoes with Parmesan and garlic! Sooooo goood! Our waitress was so super nice, everyone there was super nice and genuine.

Straight up good place to grab a bite in Cedar City, just up the hill. I chose the ribeye steak which came w salad and rolls. Server was on point, fast and courteous.

Love the food, when you can get it. Here's the thing.......1) They open at 5:00, so that's when they might start answering the phone 2) You can leave a request for a reservation on the answering machine, if it's turned on 3) Twice we've driven over 30 minutes to have dinner at 5:00 only to find out that the public wasn't allowed in because the entire place had been rented out for a private party. Now I'm cool with that, but put that on a) your answering machine b) your web page c) your social media page d) ANYWHERE THAT PREVENTS ME FROM WAISTING AN ENTIRE EVENING TRYING TO GIVE YOU MY BUSINESS!

We arrived and waited 20 minutes for water and 30 minutes for bread. Normal orders for appetizers were taken and delivered as expected. Our steak was bland and a lower cut of meat than we are accustomed to at a steakhouse. My wife's salmon was on the edge of being too old and undercooked. I mentioned this to the waitstaff and was assured something would be done. I waited and paid the full price due to my impatience. The lack of management and accountability leads to lower standards and they are at the bottom. The wait staff was very friendly, just not effective.

Such a cute place with gorgeous mountains close by. Great service, we tried the tumblewood, BBQ platter, & petite filet. Everything was delicious. We'd come back!

First time here... visiting for Iron Games. Place is cute and country. The menu is awesome and a lot to choose from. The filet and coconut shrimp plate was cooked perfectly and the whole plate came out hot! So good! The loaded sweet potato was amazing! Only thing is seasonal veggie - carrots - blah lol but I would've told u to keep them If I'd known! Service was great! No complaints!

The food is tasty. Large portions. Definitely not a fancy restaurant. So don't expect anything fancy. Our server was on top of things and did a good job. Even though it was good overall, probably won't go back.

Classic steakhouse with lots of other stuff on the menu. You get lots of food, so the smaller 7 oz filet was enough for me even though I'm a pretty good eater. Loads of atmosphere, and so much to choose from. Packed when we went (and apparently all the time), so you might want to make a reservation or be prepared to wait.

Amazing and flavorful bbq. Spices bbq hot wings were to die for. Went there for my mom's 90th birthday. It did not let us down. I will definitely be back
