Rusty's Deli & Grille

Some of the best chicken salad you'll ever have! They catered for our meetings with a large telecommunications company for many years and always try to drop in and get my fix right from the source. They are quite friendly and the service is always quick. It's a very homey and relaxed atmosphere that is quite reminiscent of the 80's deli restaurant. You'll be blessed by stopping by this lovely establishment.

I stopped in for lunch, and WOW, SO packed! From the crowd size, my expectations grew. I remember enjoying their Cheesesteak Sub from WAY back...but for one reason or another, I haven't been back for a long time. So I ordered their Cheesesteak and Fries again.Again, my expectations were huge...given my nostalgic memory and the crowd size. Unfortunately, the foods didn't quite meet it.The Cheesesteak Sub was good...but a bit short from great. Maybe it's just me and my Asian taste buds, but the sub just tasted too bland. I poured a ton of hot sauce, yet still, Meh. It was the right amount of greasy...not dry, but not too much (which I really don't care for!). The Fries, however, were solid. I'm not a huge fan of fries anymore either...but these were really good versions. I've been craving a good Cheesesteak, so I'm glad I revisited...and am glad they're still doing good business. I'm also not a huge fan of hand-helds, but my 2 boys are...so I may return with them sometime in the future.

First time at Rusty's, and boy have I been missing out. My late grandpa used to always talk about this place, and now I know why. They have a broad range of menu items, and they have weekday specials. This place can get busy but the tables are first come, first serve and they turn fast. There won't be a long wait unless you see it out of the door. The South Charlotte cheesesteak with beef and mushrooms added was phenomenal. I'd say top two of the ones I have had in Charlotte. The bread is definitely wasn't made it. Crispy on the outside, but soft on the inside. The Reuben was delicious too - sooo cheesy. The burgers were large and flavorful, with plenty of bacon on it. What a great staple of a deli!

This is a really nice out-of-the-way burger joint and has a reputation of having the best french fries in Charlotte. I tried the grilled chicken sandwich and my dad got the mushroom and Swiss burger. Both of them were cooked perfectly were juicy and had a great taste. The staff was very very friendly and accommodating. The food was made while we waited which was only about seven or eight minutes.

Went for the first time Saturday and it definitely won't be my last. I got the Ruben and was so happy with my selection. The bread was buttery and toasted perfectly, the flavorful meat and BEAUTIFULLY melted cheese made for a perfect cheese pull. I went around 1pm in a Saturday and the service was so quick and kind. I also tried a bite of cheesesteak as well as bacon cheeseburger- both fantastic. Next try? One of the loaded potatoes. I'll be back soon!

One of the things I miss about living in upstate NY is the Delis. The meats seem fresher, and the sandwiches taste better. This deli was recommended to me, and it did not disappoint. Being able to create my own sandwich made it easy to sele t what I want I stead of relying on the menu. The croissant was soft and delicious. I will definitely be back here when im in the Charlotte area.

YUM!! The only word you need. I got the Carolina club w onions and it's delish! Busy place - that speaks for itself! I'm going back to try more

Just had take out from Rusty's because my Mom loves their burger. I ordered a black bean burger because I loved them in the past. They obviously have changed their recipe because it was terrible. It was inedible. I have never had a bad sandwich from them but they need to relook at the old way of preparing their black bean burger.

A nice little sandwich shop nestled in the Quail Corners shopping center, Rusty's deli has a lot of hot and cold sandwiches to satisfy a variety of tastes. I stopped by to pick up a sandwich to go, the chicken salad on a croissant sounded like a good choice. The croissant was very soft and fresh, and the chicken salad was meaty and savory. Not the best chicken salad I've ever had, but it was good and it was satisfying. Their potato salad was excellent. It provided a creamy and vinegary wave of flavor that hit and all the right ways. There is a cozy almost used bookstore kind of feel to this little shop. You order at the counter and the food can be eaten inside the restaurant or taken to go. Not a bad spot for lunch, or a dinner. It's definitely worth a try. Looking forward to trying some of their hot sandwiches, when I can stay and eat them at the restaurant.

As always Rusty's Deli never fails to satisfy! Food / Service / Staff are excellent as always! I've been coming to Rusty's since 1989 and today my youngest daughter got to come as well and absolutely loved her chicken salad. Thank you!!
