Rusty Tractor

Hmmmmmmmm … The reviews are quite conflicting.
Pros: large, new facility, open-​concept, clean, well-​lit, menu selection is concise, bottle/​tap beers, mixed drinks, wine, patio, large parking lot, noise level seems to be manageable. My reuben tasted great — bread was toasted/​warm, good combo and balance of meat/​kraut/​sauce.
Cons: overall lack of front/​back of house restaurant training/​knowledge development, slow ticket times for apps/​main/​dessert, portions (sides, salads) are VERY small, inconsistent food temps, no sense of urgency from staff, some items appear/​taste to be pre-​packaged vs. homemade. My salad was wimpy — barely filled the bowl, 2 croutons, 2 pieces of chopped tomato?! The cole slaw was served in the same silver container that others’ condiments (ketchup, steak sauce, etc) were served in.
Overall: Great concept, design, building, HOWEVER I don’t go out for dinner to enjoy the structure — I want to pay for and receive quality, homemade food — within a reasonable amount of time (25 minutes for a salad and 40 minutes for an entrée is ridiculous) with great customer service from knowledgeable front/​back of house staff.

The first reaction you have to this place is… Why is the here? I mean it’s a restaurant large enough that it could probably fit almost the entire town’s residents in it at once. That said, it’s very clean, looks great, has friendly staff, and decent food. Had a burger for lunch. The bun was a bit wimpy but the rest of the burger was good. The fries were downright perfect. I would eat here again.

Eat here if you want to wait 2 hours for cold, under cooked food. Had a good menu and good atmosphere, but no one wants to wait this long. We should have believed the reviews of friends. They were spot on. Extremely slow, if you get your food at all. If they want this place to be respectable, get a new manager, cook, or whatever is needed. Others left without being served also.

Great menu and food quality for most part. Atmosphere is great. Have alot of issues to get worked out with it being a new restaurant.
Complaints: They forgot my side of corn, forgot the bacon on the loaded chicken meal of another guest I was with. Mash potatoes are instant and gravy is prepackaged, would prefer homemade.
But all in all great atmosphere with spacious room and alot of TVs. Noise level is a little loud and sound echo’s because of how big & open it is. This is the Go-​To Restaurant in a 30 mile radius of Smith County.

Great atmosphere, great food– this restaurant has home cooking done great. Very cool restaurant concept in a rural setting. If you want a large selection of comfort food, you won’t be disappointed. Many large TVs, log cabin/​barn like environment that has a good wow factor when you come in.
