I enjoyed a wonderful dinner tonight with my partner to celebrate our first anniversary. It was our second visit, and we were definitely not disappointed!

The Rustler is one of the best restaurants I’ve ever visited. The atmosphere of the bar is very cozy, and the employees make you feel very welcome, almost like family. On top of all of that, the food is phenomenal! I would recommend visiting to everyone!

We came here to celebrate a successful go live for a local hospital and it was awesome. I had the filet and shrimp which was great but the highlight was the sautéed crab claws. OMG those crab claws 10/10....Definitely would recommend.

This was quite a surprise outside Meridian MS. The food was fantastic! One of the best steaks we’ve ever had. Salad, vegetables, and steak were done to perfection. Glad to know about The Rustler!

My friends and I had a wonderful dinner tonight! By chance, Semmes welcomed us outside and guided us to the dining room, serving as the perfect hostess. Our server was a true gentleman, always attentive to our needs. The food was absolutely delicious. When one dish turned out to be a bit too salty, Semmes quickly took care of it! It was a delightful evening, and I look forward to returning. – Kay Laughlin Behm

Not only is the food amazing, but the service is top notch. And the ambience is first class. I highly recommend to anyone looking for great food and a unique atmosphere. The staff were all wonderful and served with pride and amiability. Even the owner and his family were actively serving their clientele. What a breath of fresh air. Perhaps the best local restaurant we have had the pleasure of experiencing.
