    Well done steak tips that were $30 bucks.
    Cherie J.

    Went on 7/31/2025 with my wife. If I could give less than 1 star I would. Started with the fried cheese curd. Something was a bit off other than being cold on the inside. Sent back, came out hotter but something was off. The taste of the cheese was just not good at all. My wife ate it bc she didn't want to complain again. She ordered the macaroni and cheese & I ordered the steak tips, medium with tater tots and broccolini. Food came, and my $30 steak tips were well done. Tater tots were crispy. Whatever...I ate it. My wife's macaroni and cheese was inedible. She had like 4 bites and told me to be quiet. I told her not to bring it home as I didn't want it to sit in the fridge as we already put the trash out for tomorrow's pickup. She felt bad and asked for a box so we brought it home. When we got to car, she started gagging and ended up puking out the car door and then into a doggie poop bag on the way home. I pulled right up on the curb at home, next to trash and she dumped it! We will never go to The Spot again. EVER...

    Fried pickles with jalapeño ranch dipping sauce.

    Fried pickles appetizer was delicious. Baked mac & cheese and sirloin kabobs special were great. Maegan our server was very friendly. A little loud, but overall comfortable restaurant.

    Pilled pork sandwich.

    Expensive yet tasty, not a lot of choices on food but very yummy dishes. I recommend the churros for desert and Cesar salad. 8/10.

The food was fairly priced and delicious! We had the paella and the burger. The burger was a little less salty than I'm used to, but that means it was much better for my health, so I didn't add any salt or seasoning. They were both so delicious and filling, that we ended up taking them home and having leftovers in the morning. Would you believe it if I said they still tasted amazing the next morning? It's a little confusing where the front entrance is, but there are plenty of signs to guide you where you need to go. Don't sleep on this place. It's awesome.

The cocktails we had were very good, especially since they were not too sweet, a true test IMHO. The food is mostly very good with standouts like their tomato soup which is truly excellent IMHO. The dollar night oysters were very good for the price, significantly higher quality than most dollar night bivalves. We'll definitely be returning to explore their offerings more.

Ordered a fiddlehead double IPA with 8.2 abv Smoked bbq chicken wings 2 meat combo of ribs, brisket, Mac and cheese, bbq beans Well, smoked wings were outstanding and some best I've had .... Just right amount of smoke flavor. Brisket was a huge wow... tender, moist and some of best brisket I've had at many bbq spots throughout USA. Ribs had a nice smoke ring, a bit salty for my tastes, but still an excellent cook on the ribs Mac and cheese was great, I wanted a multi cheese taste... add a parm cheese to it... still excellent cook on the Mac and cheese Beans very good, I like a bit more molasses, with few chunks briskets ... excellent however Corn bread on dry side...needs improvement Only one option for bbq ...

The ribs…read morewere fall-off-the-bone perfection, with so much meat packed onto each one--seriously generous and smoky delicious. The pork belly sandwich special was an unforgettable mouthful: juicy, cheesy, and perfectly stacked on toasted rye that added the ideal crunch. We were shocked (in the best way) by the salad portions--massive! Easily enough to feed a family of four, and fresh as can be. The cornbread? Soft, sweet, and heavenly with the honey butter. We did think a little toast would've helped that butter melt just right--but still a must-order. The house pickles were crisp with the most satisfying snap and bold flavor. We also tried the hush puppies with their unique dipping sauce--super creative, though not totally our vibe. Limited seating means you might wait, but trust us--it's absolutely worth it. Booth or table seating. The Rusty Can is a flavor-packed experience from start to finish.

When you walk in, the place is beautiful- sort of modern rustic chic with beautiful string lights. We ordered mussels and wine to start. Mussels were fantastic. Meaty, flavorful and plenty for everyone. The entree is where it fell short for me. I got the shrimp pasta. While the flavor was there, when I cut into the shrimp they still looked pretty translucent to me. After eating one and cutting up a few others, I felt that they were undercooked. The waitress said they wouldn't cook them more but she could bring the plate back and ask if they were cooked through. My plate came back and I was told they were cook so I sat there pushing soft, nasty shrimp around my plate while just eating spaghetti. My boyfriend asked for a medium burger and it was definitely rare to medium rare. When this happens, generally you offer to bring out new protein cooked again or ask if the guest wants something else but I was just left to feel like I was nuts. Whatever, into dessert. Now for dessert, I thought we'd try the cookies and ice cream. cookies were completely raw ( not just soft) and also not hot and the ice cream on the plate looked like it was pre scooped and refrozen. While I loved the concept of this place. Relaxing getaway where you can just do it all onsite, I honestly would spare yourselves the experience of the restaurant or order fish and chips or fried chicken) and just dine in Newburyport.
