The Resturant is an absolute joy!!! The atmosphere was filled with smooth grooves, ethnic, diverse, and the food melts in your mouth. The service with Amanda was on point and Danny knows how to make a mean Lemon Drop.
Rustik Tavern is the place to be for a full on vibe. Music is great, food is bomb, service is amazing 10 out of 10 experience! Oh did I mention the food and Drink is Amazinf
I enjoyed my experience at Rustik tavern for bottomless brunch. The waitress was very attentive to our table, despite not making a reservation we were accommodated! 10/10 experience!
We have been a couple of times and the food has been good. Today we had chicken and waffles and fish with fries as well as mimosas. The main complaint is there was no discernable part of chicken, just humks of breading with some chicken inside... almost like tempura but more crunchy. We took home leftovers but it turned out to be just more breading and very little chicken. I'd probably just get shrimp and grits like last time. That was excellent.
Honestly, had a great time at brunch and wanted to specifically shout out our server, Amanda. The music and vibe were already really good, but she honestly made the experience even better. Her service was A1 — super attentive, friendly, and on point without ever feeling rushed or overwhelming. She also gave really helpful suggestions on the menu and everything she recommended ended up being a hit. It’s always nice when a server actually knows the food and steers you in the right direction. Overall the atmosphere was fun, the food was great, and Amanda definitely elevated the whole experience. I’d absolutely come back and hope to be seated in her section again.
I had a great time for Valentine’s Day for brunch thanks to the lovely workers Anna, Danny & Amanda . Their service was phenomenal and food was so tasty . 10/10 highly recommended.
Rustik Tavern exceeded my expectations. The food was delicious, tasted like it was made with love and the customers in mind.
