    I brought my out-of-state guests here because I knew from my one visit couple of years ago, that they would enjoy it as much as I did. I was not wrong. The vibe/environment was like chilling around a family gathering which made us very comfortable. The food (and I mean ALL of it including the drinks) was made to perfection, delicious and brought out with a quickness even though it was during a busy brunch crowd. But most of all... our server Sal was top notch! He was funny, polite, attentive (not in an in your face way either), always had a huge smile for us and super patient while we were being indecisive and asked a lot of questions which he answered. I highly recommend to anyone and everyone.

    The place to be for brunch, lunch, hanging out with friends, family, and everything in between. It was Saturday brunch for us. The brunch for two was plenty and tasty. The doors were open for rays and fresh air with pockets of friendly groups scattered about. The bartenders were awesome, so engaging. The atmosphere is relaxed, social, and rustic! Lol Get there early for the best seating, especially during hot summers. It gets packed quickly!

    The food and cocktails are great. Recommend to try Texas hot chicken & cheese and salmon grilled burger. They got the best service team which doesn’t give you any left alone feeling. To add on they have live music and got a fantastic pool of talents to perform. Best vibe in town to hang out with friends and family. Overall, it’s not just one time visiting place, I would love to go again for the great food and ambience.

    Yes! Food: I’ve only had salads and fries here on my last two visits but all of the food I’ve seen looks really good. And the drinks are good too. Location: This spot is in a good location in Uptown with open parking space as well. Space: Very spacious, cool vibes. Inside and outdoor space. There is also live music from Thursday to Sunday. Cleanliness: It’s clean and I love that. But the doors are open to the outside space there may be a few mosquitoes are flies that come in. The only thing I didn’t love, but I’m not sure if the doors to outside are always open. Service: Everyone is so nice here. You’ll likely have good service if they keep that up. Very attentive staff and friendly which is perfect. Overall: definitely worth a visit if you’re in Dallas!

    Came out here to watch a friend perform and my friends and I had a great time. They were accommodating and gave us a table right by the stage. The food exceeded my expectations- it was delicious! The drinks were also good. Staff are friendly and our server was fun. Thank you! The rustic burger & the TX hot chicken and cheese were my fav.

    I'm not sure if we ordered the wrong items or came on the wrong day, but the food was not good at all. I ordered the Salmon Burger and my sister had the Drunk Chick. The fries were drenched in salt. The salmon burger had a sauce that was so overbearing that it took away from the salmon. My sisters chicken had no seasoning, it was plain chicken with butter sauce. The deviled eggs weren't even good. We couldn't believe it. Instead of complaining we just accepted that maybe this isn't the spot for dining.

    Probably one of the best bars in uptown neighborhood. I love the outdoor seating. Thursday-Sunday is live music. I like country music so I usually prefer Saturday. The staff is very helpful, recommends drinks and food. Cary’s fries with hot ranch is really good. Cowboy mule with Jim Beam whisky was a good cocktail.

    Best brisket in town! Hands down, there's a lot of good brisket in Texas, but excellent brisket is hard to come by, and they have it here. The place is very nice, the live music is great. And the service is amazing! Matthew took care of me and my family when we went in to celebrate my brother-in-law's birthday. Matthew provided such an incredible service that we ended up having to ask for the manager to commend him on it! We will definitely ask for him if he's there.

    We went for a lunch break with the company and what we thought would be a one hour thing turned into about 2 hours because we had to frequently look for our sever and even to the point that we walked around to find her. It was somewhat annoying the manager was walking around asking how everyone was doing then was standing in the corner on her phone when we were looking for our tab to cash out when we walked up and asked her to cash us out she said “oh just have a seat I’ll find your server” As for the the food it was good and would definitely eat here again because it was good but this is the second time I have had an issue with the service and their time management. This first time I came the hostess said “I can put your name down and you can wait but there is not guarantee on how long you will wait or if you will get a table, but we don’t do reservations” which blows my mind to expect someone to wait in hopes of being seated.

    They have a great $18 brunch with like 8 different things to try and their mimosa carafes was a great size. Good portions of everything and it has a great location and back patio. A huge back patio with plenty of shade during the day.

    I was coming home late for a meeting and there was a lot of traffic so I decided to stop for dinner. The sign at the Rustic caught caught my eye off the highway. The vibe of the restaurant is indeed rustic, the inside of the restaurant is a barn it appears. They used pallets for accent walls, low lighting, large bar. It was a nice evening so I sat outside and enjoyed a beer, had some tortilla soup and had The Rustic Burger. The tortilla soup had a really great flavor and nice chunks of chicken. The Rustic Burger was served with a poblano, brisket and a spicy little pepper on top. I had them with fries and really enjoyed everything. They had a canopy over the large picnic style tables and heaters throughout. They had several fire pits around and I cozied up to one and read while I finished my beer. Definitely a place to come back with friends, patio was nice, they have music Thursday through the weekend, would be great to come back for that as well. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    Rustic, without a doubt, deserves an enthusiastic five-star rating for its outstanding variety of tap beers, captivating live music, and delectable food offerings. From the moment I stepped into this delightful establishment, I was enveloped in an ambiance of warmth, comfort, and pure enjoyment. First and foremost, the extensive selection of tap beers at Rustic is a beer lover's dream come true. With an impressive range of local craft brews and international favorites, this establishment truly understands the art of delivering a diverse and satisfying beer experience. The live music performances held here are an absolute treat for the senses. The menu boasts a range of delectable options, each dish meticulously crafted with care and creativity. The sandwiches and burgers are simply awesome. At times they take a lot of time to get your check 😊

    This was a great place to have dinner in. Loved the outdoor seating for the evening time. They also had live music, which was lovely. We tried the brisket tacos for 2 people and the salmon, they were all good. Service can be quite slow and portions are ok, not big not small, specially by US standards it was good to see it was not huge plates,rather a normal serving.

    Very nice restaurant. There was live music out in the courtyard and the temperature was amazing. Food was pretty good, though we had 2 items sent back. Only thing we didn't like was how loud the music was. We sat toward the back and could barely hear each other. I would still go back again though.

    I think it’s a wonderful place. It is just too hot to be out in the patio in the summer because of the heat, so I recommend get there early so you can find a place inside. A great place for brunch! Very delicious. The chicken sandwich was delicious.

    We had a large group dinner at The Rustic last night. What a great time! Food was excellent and the servers were phenomenal. It was a great venue for a noisy crew, and lots of photo opps! Mica and his staff went above & beyond to give us and excellent experience.

  • 3/5 Danking 1 year ago on Google
    The place is nice. It is uptown area so expect accordingly. There is enough parking space. I had seen case study of rustic and thought its a very attractive place. I enjoyed the place but was little disconnected with the overall design of the place. The tables are long so if you are group of more than three, expect that you will not get to chst with the person sitting in the next corner. I had ordered the drunk chick. It turned out horrible. The food presentation was not good. The chicken was also very small and oily and not tasty at all. I am not referring to all food. It was just my food that was not good. My friends had ordered other food as well but they couldn't finish it. I dont know why. Overall the place is good to hang out with friends and enjoy the time.

    A boot-scootin' good time for all! I went here with a group of coworkers who have become dear friends. We had a Saturday night reservation and the table was waiting for upon arrival. A few friends didn't show but the greeter or waiter didn't make a big deal of it, which was a welcome surprise given it was a Saturday night. We leisurely enjoyed a wide array of delicious and visually appealing appetizers and cocktails while listening to fun country music. While we sat inside, it was fun to see the picnic tables and beautiful grass being enjoyed by others. Dinner was delightful, albeit overshadowed by dessert! That peanut pie is nothing like I've ever had - gooey gnache and garnished with fresh peanuts. If you're in the area and shirt on time, go for the smoked dip and peanut butter pie. It's worth it!

    REALLY good food! We were seated at a table that had puke on the bench at first, but they were accommodating, moved us and the experience was great after that! The rib was MASSIVE AND THE SPOON BREAD IS OMG! We are glad we stumbled across it! Would be great to see live music there. Very kid friendly! We will b back

  • 5/5 Fei Y. 2 years ago on Google
    Great brunch spot with a lively scene and a singer delivering classic country tunes for a lazy Sunday. The $19 brunch sampler took the choosing out of the equation and the dishes were great - crackers & dips, sausages & french toast, fried chicken and salads. It was very filling (although was hoping for some dessert included in it)! Plenty of drink options - a pitcher might be a bit much for 2. Outdoor seating was a plus on a sunny day.

  • 3/5 S E. 8 months ago on Google
    The live music is the bright spot for The Rustic. I think you’ll enjoy the atmosphere and the local products are a plus. Our server was very good and helped us with recommendations. The hot chicken and Peanut butter pie are recommended. The downside is the food portions and store quality average drinks. The menu is misleading, so ask questions. The doors were open so the temperature was very warm and flies are a problem. READ THE REVIEWS
