    Texas Hot Chicken and Avocado Toast
    Jacqueline G.

    This is a fun brunch spot to add to the rotation, especially if you like live music. You have the option of eating indoors or outdoors, and we chose indoors. Happy to report they have covered, heated seating outside though so don't fret if you can get a table inside. The service was solid, and our waiter was decently attentive. Standouts for me were the Texas Hot Chicken (just a little kick but the right amount) and the Banana Pudding (salted caramel is the secret weapon)! The avocado toast was ok, but I wouldn't come for it alone. For drinks, I got the Bellini and also tried the Ginger Yuzu mocktail; the mocktail was my favorite. Pro tip - you can order any dish from the "family style brunch" section à la carte

    We had our company event here at the rustic in Dallas and the venue is spacious lively, and there was a whole stage for live music although the ambience is really good. We did have Catering buffet style food. Unfortunately, the food was just okay. I expected a little bit more, not a fan.

    Went for brunch. Paid about $22 Got some sort of egg frittata thin (pretty good), biscuits and gravy (pretty dang great), thick bacon (good), fried chicken (amazing), avocado toast (good), potatoes (delicious), cucumber jicama salad (....), and lemon bars with fruit (it's okay). But the highlight was definitely the French toast. My goodness some of the best French toast I've had. For the amount you get, I'd say it's a bit expensive, but not too bad. Some items were amazing, others need to be changed. The customer service was amazing as well. I'd say it's worth the visit.

    JAM & TOAST BRUNCH

    First time here for brunch. It is family style with a bunch of different foods. The bacon was a standout. Also the chicken dipped in the leftover gravy from the biscuits was a smart move. Drinks were okay as well with mimosa and Bellini pitchers. Our server was great. He was friendly and bantered with the parents.

    We came here as a spur of the moment. We ordered a burgerand the drink that was on special. The atmosphere is cool. I like coming here more for the brunch vibe.

    If you haven't visited The Rustic yet, you need to make a stop there! They have live music on their stage, which is really enjoyable, but we came specifically for their amazing brunch. Our waiter, G, was fantastic--he answered all our questions and made sure we had a great time. The brunch is definitely worth it; we went with a group of seven, and the price was around $19.95 or $20.00 per person, so we all decided to go for it. When the food arrived, it was delicious! The eggs, bacon, French toast, and more were all exceptional. And let me tell you, the bellini was delightful. Just be sure to make a reservation to guarantee a table, as they have both outdoor and indoor seating. I highly recommend this place!

    Really cool place! Large indoor and outdoor areas with live music. We came during happy hour and there was a great selection of drinks and appetizers for seven dollars. Our waitress was so quick and attentive as well.

    SMOKED DIP DUO
    Jimmy K.

    We checked this place out for a recent work happy hour and enjoyed it. We decided to sit at a table on the spacious outside patio. They have some happy hour specials for drinks and appetizers. A couple of people ordered the Paloma and enjoyed it. My beer was great. Very cold and refreshing to enjoy on a warm day. The smoked dip duo was a great appetizer. The first server we had was very attentive. She switched out for another person during our time and he wasn't as attentive. We had to go inside and flag him down for the check. But, we will definitely be back.

    The Rustic Reviews in Other Languages

    Ask the Community - The Rustic

    Do they offer any music other than country?

    They have all types of Bands and music.

    Do they have outside tv's to watch college football?

    No outside TVs. However, bring a laptop or your phone and you are all set. This place is more of a social gathering and live venue rather than a sports bar. Very few TVs

    Just to clarify are dogs allowed?

    No. It is not a dog friendly restaurant. That is literally it's only flaw. Food is great. Atmosphere is great. Workers are great, but no dogs allowed.

    Can we make reservations ? Also, can people under 21 eat there?

    You can't make reservations for brunch but you can for any other dining options. And yes, 21 and under can eat there

    Is the live music indoor or outdoor, especially in the afternoon?

    The stage is split between inside and out

    Can I make reservations?

    Yes! We take reservations only a week out, and up to 19 people. We recommend calling exactly a week in advance to be guaranteed a reservation.

    Is there a way to order drinks at the bar (rather than waiting for a server to come to you and take your order)?

    Yes, of course. They have a U-shaped bar you can walk up to and order a drink from.

    Can you make reservations online?

    Yes! Go to RESY.com and you can reserve a table on there.

    Can you order from the regular menu on Saturdays before 3 or is only the brunch menu available?

    It will only be our brunch menu. We have a few items from our dinner menu ie. Hot Chicken and Cheese and Texas Cheesesteak.

    Is there any live music these days?

    Yes! You can find the schedule on their website: https://therustic.com/musicevents/

    Can you order off the regular menu as well during their brunch hours on Saturday and Sunday?

    It will only be our brunch menu. We have a few items from our regular menu (ie. Hot chicken and cheese and Texas Cheesesteak).

    Does The Rustic in Dallas offer Sunday brunch?

    Uh yeah

    What are the parking options and prices? Any free parking nearby?

    There is free parking immediately in front and close by on side street.

    When is happy hour?

    Monday-Friday 3-5pm 3$-5$

    Do I need to bring an ID to get in? I mean if they scan ID at their door?

    No they don't. Waiters/bartenders will ask if you order drinks.

    Do I have to reserve if I go with a group of friends?

    Not at all! We actually only take reservations for parties of 25 or more, so come on in and we'll get you a seat as soon as possible. The patio and the bar are always open seating, and the hostess will find you a table!

    Do they take reservations for larger parties or call ahead?

    They do not take reservations.

    What is the average age group?

    25-40 was the dominant age range. There were a few families with small kids and a few older kids with elder-ish parents.

    I hate when places don't put drink prices, I don't like that kind of surprise...I was wondering how crazy expensive are the popsicle frozen drinks?

    13.95 for the rimy Rita with a sangria pop in it

Although they offered seating down low, it was constantly rotating on availability depending on the performers. If I wanted to find a seat, I could have. I mostly stood near the bar which wasn't too crowded since it was an all ages event. After standing there for about 2 hours, they did ask us to move to the end of the bar for potential customers .. there never really were more than 3 people ordering at a time, but we still moved. We got tall boy White Claws and it was the perfect sipper drink. The lighting and sound was good for the experience here and they had plenty of vantage points (including a VIP upper floor). Security wasn't bad, I didn't bring a bag, so I breezed through. There's a large parking structure right behind the TBF, so walking over was very easy too. We did initially have handicap people in our group who opted not to attend after we shared that the surrounding sidewalks were not very level and that the amount of people might be a little tricky for navigating with a walker. All in all though, I had a great time here!

It's was definitely packed but we were able to get our drinks quick. This is a great general admission venue!

I was performing on a Saturday night & this was my first time playing in Dallas (I DJ). The whole staff was nice, really nice. They took care of me & everyone else on the bill. They have a nice patio out back with a high enough fence that no one could see me from the outside looking in. The place was spacious, I like how the tables were along the side wall while across is the bar + bar seating. In-between where the open floor sits the stage platformed high against a back wall. The sound was really good & they left the car garage looking doors up, which caught attention from those who were walking by outside. I enjoyed myself that night. I'll always come back, even when I'm not DJing. What I also enjoyed were the number of TVs on deck playing plenty of college football(this was the night of OU vs UT). That's a bonus for me when it comes to a bars + venues because I really like sports & to have options whenever it's present.
