- ATAshley Thompson5 days ago5.0Great food and even better service! Jasmin was friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience feel welcoming. We’ll definitely be back.
- BWBryce E. WaguespackDec 29, 20255.0We had a wonderful dinner at The Rustic recently, and overall, it was a great experience that left us eager to return. The menu offered a solid selection of dishes, and the crab cakes stood out as a highlight—they were flavorful, well-seasoned, and honestly pretty delicious. The tamales were listed as an appetizer, so the smaller portions made sense, but they certainly didn't disappoint in taste. They were tender, perfectly spiced, and packed with authentic flavor. The absolute star of the meal for me, though, was the peanut butter cake. It was rich, decadent, and downright delicious—one of the best desserts I've had in a while. Our server recommended it, and it's clear they have excellent taste because it was the perfect sweet ending to the meal. The atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming, the service was friendly and attentive, and everything felt like great value. Our whole group enjoyed the evening, and we all agreed we'd definitely come back to The Rustic soon. Highly recommend giving it a try!
- SFShannon FletcherDec 27, 20255.0Bartender was excellent, our server (Adrian) was excellent, and the food selections we made came out perfectly. We ordered the wild boar meatballs, smoked dip duo, burger, salmon burger, and brisket and chicken tacos. Only less-than-excellent thing was the pork chop, but my dad is overly picky and likes to toe the line with food poisoning (prefers things rare that have no business being rare, so take this comment with a grain of salt). He said the flavor was awesome! Ben Coleman provided some live music that was PHENOMENAL. His buddy on the fiddle made the whole thing that much better! Fabulous setlist with songs from Eric church, Robert earl keen, John Anderson, Tracy Lawrence, Willie, and a bunch of other amazing artists that aren’t circulated as much anymore. The vibe was AMAZING. 10/10 recommend finding out where Ben Coleman is playing and supporting!
- BHBeau Von HoffmanDec 23, 20255.0After a night shopping excursion, I found myself at The Rustic - they have a great happy hour and extremely large and great deserts. Cannot wait to be back and enjoy these food options again! Thank you for your menu and awesome customer service! The Rustic this epic dining area does not disappoint as the energy is abundant, and the people are happy to be in this space. I’m a big fan of all the sides. I literally could order all of them on the menu and be happy as a clam. I always make this part of my Target run as the store make me hungry and the Rustic has more than enough food options that are massive in portion and really well made. The deserts are off the charts and so are their onion rings! Thank you Rustic we love you!
- MBMaria BercedoDec 16, 20255.0We arrived with a reservation for a large group of 16, and there was an unexpected issue when we checked in. What truly stood out was how the manager immediately stepped in, took ownership of the situation, and personally made sure everything was resolved smoothly. Thanks to his leadership and professionalism, our entire party was seated and taken care of without stress. Moments like this define great restaurants — not just the food, but the people who genuinely care about their guests. Outstanding service, calm problem-solving, and a team that clearly works together. We’re very grateful and will absolutely be back. Highly recommended.
