Rusty Nail's current Yelp rating of four stars out of two reviews indicates positive attention from users and its still early days.

Yelper Indrani S. wrote, "My kids and I really liked the takeout food! And the bar had a nice vibe too. Especially recommend the steamed buns and rice bowl."

Yelp users are generally positive about the business, which currently holds four stars out of five reviews on the site.
