Had one of the best meals I’ve had in years. I live in NY and this beats any of my places there in service and unique and amazingly flavorful food. My friend also had a severe dairy and gluten allergy and they were so helpful in accommodating her. This is hospitality at its finest.

What a great overall experience. The service is friendly and the food is unique and excellent. Nothing here we could cook at home. All of the staff are genuinely excited about working there and proud of their product (as they should be!)

Ok, the bread ? here is stupid good. We dined at 530p and they only had 3 left. So, trust when I say if you wanna be in gluten heaven, go early. Service was excellent. Food was too. Everyone there cares about what they're doing and it shows. Solid operation, everyone! ?
Pork Chops? Good Lord.
Down to the most basic desserts... A cantaloupe sorbet was very memorable.
The food here was well worth a stop. Everything was so good, the service and servers were great. Everything is in season. I would highly recommend it.

The food will knock your socks off! The vibe is unpretentious. It’s a neighborhood staple. Book it, you won’t be disappointed.

Absolutely amazing food! In Santa Monica a few days and saw this place listed on several top 10 restaurants in the area. Those other reviews were spot on as our burrata and heirloom salad, poached trout, and duck breast were phenomenal! Highly recommend checking this place out! Thanks to the waitress and chef, had a great time!

We had an excellent meal at Rustic Canyon! Incredibly fresh, seasonal ingredients prepared beautifully. Our server was so charming as well. We ordered the rolls (a must), the nectarine, cucumber feta salad (amazing!), artichoke and gnocchi; the chef sent us the signature “beets and berries” to round out the meal perfectly. We finished the meal with the mind blowing honeycomb ice cream - if I were drinking that night, a Scotch would have complemented it beautifully (at our server’s suggestion!). Every dish was prepared with care and showcased the team’s talent. This will become a go-to for me, with excellent options for vegetarians and non vegetarians alike.
It was fine. Menu is all over the place. Nothing quite works with anything else. Service was good. Great cocktails.

I had the pleasure of having an amazing dinner here and it exceeded expectations. Not only was the food absolutely fresh, unique, and amazing the service was outstanding. I have a dairy allergy and this was no problem given the menu had lots of options that were easily modified and didn't loose any of the spectacular flavor. I look forward to coming back and highly recommend Rustic Canyon.

Wow, what a wonderful culinary experience this was. Everything is made with such detail. Service is impeccable (we were served by the young man with two nose piercings and he was wonderful). Even the simple 'bread and butter' was transformed into something out of this world ; warm homemade brioche and butter in the shape of a honeycomb WITH honeycomb!
We loved every dish! Concocted with perfection, all the dishes had something special that you don't see in other restaurants.
What a lovely experience (yes, maybe I'm fishing for a discount or two, haha!) !!

Delicious farm to table food in a super loud environment. At the start we thought our server would be fabulous and we’d have a night of cocktails but after her first two stops she drifted away infrequently coming by and we never got a second round order in.
