We are traveling and in Houston for a few days. We decided to visit The Rustic for dinner as they also had live music and a reasonable menu. Service was very good, but the food and drinks were a disappointment. They weren't terrible but expensive considering what we ordered. $12 for a local draft - maybe that's typical in Houston? The music was also a disappointment, The musicians themselves were fine, but the mix for the sound was poor with constant low frequency feedback and it was hard to hear the individual instruments at all given general acoustics of the room. Not a place to listen to music.

We love this place!! It was my partners birthday and he really enjoyed himself! Food is always 10 out of 10. Definitely will be returning soon.

Great place for ladies who lunch. We love the semi-circular booths; perfect for five of us. Great service and delicious food.

The Rustic Houston Uptown Park really is the best, thoroughly enjoy it every time. Great Food, Service and ambience.

We really enjoyed our food. We got the family feast. The bad part they bring everything out at once so it prone to get cold. The service was below par, we had to keep flagging our waitress for drink refills.

The food was alright but service was terrible. The waitress messed up our order and when it came to charging our food she messed it up 4 separate times. Just overall horrible!!

Our first and maybe last experience at The Rustic. Went for Sunday brunch and service was the worst. Server, Erwin, was completely dismissive with me and my party. Any question we had on the menu was just him listing what is literally on the menu, not actually telling us anything about the dish. When a guest in my party couldn’t hear what he was saying he mumbled something under his breath and moved closer to her so she could hear him better. When we got our appetizer he just kinda handed the plate to me and walked away. When our entrees came, he forgot a dish that my friend ordered. This normally would be an easy fixable issue, but we were never checked on so we had to look for him to let him know. By this time we were pretty frustrated but the manager Chad came and helped us out. We got our missing items and the manager checked on us frequently after.
While the food was as a nice southern comfort food, the service from the waitstaff definitely was less than mediocre.

The service here was horrendous. It negated the entire experience. Will not eat here again. Don't expect a water refill, don't expect a timely check. It's almost as if the wait staff was ignoring our table. If I could give zero stars for service, I would.
I decided to try a new spot for my birthday, and I'm glad I chose The Rustic! Our server was excellent and had an amazing attitude.. I wish I remembered her name I would give her a shout-out. The food came out very fast , not too long of a wait..it was also very fresh and warm. 1000/10 would def. recommend !!!

Okay we had friends night out on a Friday right?? I made a reservation on Thursday morning for 10 people at 7:30pm Friday. We are all there on time and for some reason it took over 20 minutes to get seated. Which is fine. Except they sat us at a table for 8 approximately 1 foot from the live music. It took over an hour to get our food, which looked like it was made in a school cafeteria. It’s dry January so without alcohol two people spent about $100. I couldn’t wait to leave so I could actually hear my friends talk!!! Sorry I’m dramatic but man that sucked

Trisha was an excellent waitress. Wish there were more food options for Sunday brunch, but the spicy salmon salad was excellent

Came here for the first time on a date and luckily we were presented with Kimia as our waitress/server. Had a business call to handle in the beginning and she was very patient with us. Once we got to looking at the menu she was very helpful with making decisions on appetizers and entrees. Our food arrived and everything was fresh and delicious, she checked on us throughout the entire time which was very appreciated. Would definitely come back and request Kimia again!
