We went for lunch around noon, it wasn't very busy but the place was nice and cozy in the winter. The patio had heaters that kept us warm. The waitresses were also very kind. The food was really good! The pick 2 lunch special had great options. We had the whipped Brie for an appetizer and it was great. I had the rigatoni with salmon, the pasta was so yummy and filling. The salmon smelled pretty strong but it was very tasty. We all had a great time.

The Rustic Grill is a true east side hidden gem. The restaurant is located within Stonewater Golf Club and is open to the public. They have a phenomenal menu with my favorites being the Sticky Sesame Cauliflower, the Asian Bowl, and the Trout Oscar. The staff is exceptionally friendly and welcoming. In addition to the restaurant, during the summer months on Friday and Saturday''s enjoy The Yard located right behind the Rustic Grill on the 10th hole. The Yard includes food trucks, live music, ice cream, family friendly activities and more!

To begin with, the golf course presents a picturesque setting, providing an enjoyable experience for golfers. However, the culinary offerings at their grill leave much to be desired. For those who favor unseasoned and insipid cuisine, this establishment may be suitable. While we found the chicken wings to be palatable, they did not meet the expected crispness; rather, it was the combination of parmesan cheese and garlic sauce that enhanced their flavor. It is worth noting that wings are typically categorized as bar food, and the bar itself is commendable, exhibiting a vibrant atmosphere and serving high-quality beverages. Conversely, the service at the patio dining tables was subpar. Our server neglected to provide appetizer plates, silverware, and salad dressing, resulting in all of our dishes arriving simultaneously. My dining companion selected the restaurant's rendition of snap peas, parmesan, and pasta with shrimp, which proved to be excessively bland and nearly unworthy of presentation. I opted for the Chicken Pistachio Schnitzel, which also lacked flavor. The strawberry salad, however, was an exception; it was notably enjoyable, primarily due to the addition of cheese. In conclusion, I would recommend focusing on the bar and the golf course while seeking dining experiences elsewhere.

I had lunch yesterday at The Rustic Grill, which is set on the beautiful StoneWater Golf Club in Aberdeen. I came here because I wanted to try something new and had heard good things about the food. I called the day before to make a reservation as I was advised to do so, just to make sure I was able to get a seat. They did ask me if I wanted a seat on the patio but I declined. It was raining and couldn't see well out to the golf course anyways. I definitely recommend the patio on a day when it's sunny and golfers are out! It is an enclosed patio which is nice. Upon entering, they took us right away to our seat (reservation prior) which was wonderful. So we didn't have to wait at all. When we got into the restaurant, it was not crowded at all, as a matter of fact I believe me and my grandma were the only ones inside and only two other tables were occupied in the patio room.. not busy at all so not sure why reservations were advised? I thought it would be busier as the food is supposed to be really good especially at lunch hour on a Sunday. The waitress was so nice, helpful and knowledgeable. I had asked her for recommendations and she gave me her opinions which I appreciate. She also took our drink and food order right away. The food and drinks were good but here's where my review goes to 3 stars: The food. My grandma had potatoes so hard and dry that we couldn't actually chew them, I'm not kidding! I tried one myself and had to spit it out. It seems as if it had been pre made and left to sit out for hours.. not good. Her entree was also dry and she had asked for bacon on her omelette and didn't get any at all. Her food wasn't worth the money in my opinion. But granted, you're at a golf club. So expect food will be on the pricier side. I wanted to try out the signature burger and wasn't disappointed it was really good and the fries were the highlight! You must try the French fries! It came as my side so I didn't need to pay $5 additional. I also ordered the signature espresso to go after my meal and they brought it lukewarm in a plastic cup with a straw and I have never seen anything like that before. She eventually took it back in the kitchen and made it hot but I only got half of what I paid for with the espresso once it was poured in the to go styrofoam cup. It was a $6 espresso that was so small once I got it to go... Overall, the main room was beautiful, our table was a marble table which I love and the bar was decorated for Christmas with a beautiful tree and decor! Ambiance gets a 10-10! I would love to come back during the summer to sit in the patio on a sunny day and I'll be ordering those fries!

Nice atmosphere with a nice view of the golf course. Sunday brunch was crazy busy so we had to wait a little bit to get seated even though we had reservations but they staff was apologetic and friendly to get us seated asap. I got the brisket skillet. I was really surprised at the size if this entry, it was more of a dinner size entry. The brisket was way better than expected, tender, juicy and smoked. Quite a surprise given this is not a bbq restaurant. The potatoes were a bit oily but good. The French toast was also a hit, the blue berry spread in the middle was quite good, it kept the toast moist and fluffy with a hint of blue berry sweetness.

Fabulous time Saturday night with my family to celebrate my birthday. We reserved the igloo outside for a party of 8. The heaters filled the igloo up nice. The table was a little small for us but we made it work. The food was delicious with the eggplant parm and the burger. The truffle fries were my favorite! Would love to come back to try more! Service was also very excellent for us being in an igloo!!

With COVID-19 raging, but us still wanting to eat out for my birthday, we discovered that the Rustic Grill at StoneWater had outdoor igloos available!! We booked one of the two available seatings and got there in time to see the snow-covered golf course spread out before us! Service was super-friendly and attentive, and the small electric space heaters in the igloo made for a very comfortable meal experience. We ordered drinks, the best of which was my daughter's peppermint (candy cane) martini. We ordered a few appetizers while a basket of warm crusty bread arrived for us to munch. The baked camembert was served in a small cast iron skillet, all warm and gooey, topped with honey and pistachios along with crackers and apple slices for dipping. Calamari was perfectly chewy and lightly breaded crisp with a to-die-for garlic aioli that was saved to dip our fries in to. Since we were in no rush (they have timed seatings), we waited until the appys were mostly gone before we placed our main meal order. More drinks were had! My wife and I did our typical meal-split (two dishes, the burger and the lobster risotto) and the girls split one entree (deconstructed chicken pot pie). The Rustic Grill burger was served more medium that medium-rare, but was still very juicy. Burger came on a brioche bun topped with caramelized onions, crisp bacon, lettuce, melted white cheddar and the same garlic aioli mentioned earlier...it was a great combination of flavors with the sweet onions offset by the tang of the garlic sauce. And the fries on the side were some of the best fresh cut potatoes we've had in quite some time! As I mentioned above, the girls shared a deconstructed chicken pot pie which was topped with a cheddar biscuit. It was very sweet upon early bites (due to the fresh corn), but the flavors developed more as additional bites were taken. The only disappointing dish was the lobster risotto my wife and I also shared...it was very fishy tasting even though the risotto was cooked to a nice creamy consistency. The meal was unhurried, our served Dan was easygoing and laid back taking great care of us throughout the meal and the setting (with only four igloos on the patio) made for a feeling of safety and comfort which was just what we were looking for! Thanks for making my birthday special!

Hanna, an EXCELLENT server to start our dining! We were very interested in the Sunday brunch and Igloo dining. So we got our reservations and went to our "tee time". Like I started, our server was fantastic. Explained anything we asked and was so efficient that everyone complemented her. Now the meals! Two ordered the omlets that they said were the best ever! Loaded with their choices and served really hot (and this even with carrying out to the Igloo! My wife ordered the egg sandwich and a side of home fries. Sooooo good!!! I ordered the Belgian Waffle, side of bacon and home fries too. Again perfect in everything. Can't say enough about the home fries. DO NOT OVERLOOK FOR BREAKFAST!! Finally we all split the oreo cheesecake. Just perfect for us. And even with the service/gratuity added on for the Igloo, an additional tip was very warranted! Definitely coming back when weather is better for an evening meal, and so should YOU!!
