The food was okay, it did not live up to its price tag. The brussel sprouts were good and the drinks were tasty. Our server was not friendly, seemed almost annoyed. There were 5 of us and they charged a 20% service charge on our bill, and then handed us an iPad to complete payment with included options to tip and additional 18-25%. I'm not sure why there was a 20% service charge on our bill since we only had 5 people. I guess servers do that so that they don't have to be kind. I won't be returning. read more

Being from No CA (wine area), we were super excited to find this place. Location: It's unassuming exterior and location conceals a diamond in the rough. Friendly from first entry with great service throughout our brunch experience. Ambiance is spot on! Food: The menu was great! Fresh squeezed juices. We had Summer Love (not too sweet or tart...perfectly balanced). They also have a bar and use fresh juices to make cocktails however, we were there for brunch and I didn't have an opportunity to try any...I'm sure it would be delicious! It was very difficult to decide what we were going to eat (because everything looked delicious). So, we ordered Brussels to share for a starter. For mains, I ordered the Wagyu Steak & Eggs and my daughter ordered the Surf & Turf Benedict. Everything was amazing! The ONLY downside? Not having more people with us so that we could try more dishes, lol! If you're in the area, I highly recommend this place!!!! read more

I was a long time fan of the Rustik Fork, but things have drastically changed. The quality and taste are gone. Did they get a new chef? New ownership? read more

This was our first time visiting this restaurant after all the reviews and our friends telling us about this place we finally decided to try it! We came for dinner and it didn't disappoint us! The employees were super nice and helpful. My wife ordered the Braised Short Ribs. It came on a bed of Polenta which was smooth and creamy. The hugh peice of Short Ribs were cooked to perfection with a sauce that wasn't over powering! A few vegetables and a meal that was perfect. I ordered the Rustic Burger which was a half pound and on a brioche bun with all the extra goodies, cooked medium! One of the best burgers I have ever eaten! The fries were their style but for my taste just to much seasoning salt! The food 95/100 The service 96/100 We will be back to explore more of the menu and maybe start with dessert! read more

Always fantastic food. Y husband is vegan and they have a great variety of options for him. Just wish they hadn't deleted the appetizer with dates and arugula. That was my favorite. But anyway the impossible burger and the Mac and cheese are to die for bot to mention the cauliflower appetizer. The ambience is spectacular and the servers are very professional. Love you guys!!! read more

This place is great. I always try to select something I've not had in the menu. We decided to enjoy the Katuri board, excellent. read more

Cute place. Ordered the wagyu steak and fries in medium. Fries were good. Steak was cooked well done and the outside was hard. The asparagus looked old. Overall my meal was okay but definitely not worth the price. The staff was friendly read more

All the food we ordered was great, ambiance is overall casual, but could suit a business lunch or a nice dinner. Our server was very attentive to the details of our food allergies and menu questions, easily earning the service charge that was included in our bill. We'll be back! read more

Amazing food drinks and atmosphere! It's a nice change of pace. Everything if freshly made down to the syrups and ketchup!

The food is always amazing as well as the service. This is a nice little gem in the IE.

With not many options in the area we found this hidden gem, thanks to Yelp! The staff was extremely nice and welcoming, the Resturant had rustic decor down to the tea and was super clean! They don't have a liquor license so they can't make hard cocktails which was the only con but the drink was still very good and refreshing! The food was fresh and had tons of flavor! Our favorite was the starter of the grilled bread with oil & balsamic. It was grilled to perfection & had the right amount of sauce. We finished it quickly and debated on ordering a second round to go with our entree! Overall, 5/5 experience! read more

Went for a late birthday dinner for my wife. Food was very good. My wife really liked her drink. Steaks were cooked to a perfect medium. My kid didnt really like the cajun pasta so next time shes stickin to the kids menu. But overall the place wasn't full & loud. Very nice place for a dinner date, casual drinks with some friends, or just to go by yourself for a burger & a drink. Food comes out pretty fast. We didn't have to wait long. Also I cant forget to thank our server. Didn't catch his name but he had an accent. Made the whole dinning experience very pleasant. He was super helpful. Ten out of ten read more

Came here with my husband for the first time today. We always drive by and say we will go, well we finally did and we are both so glad we did. The food was excellent and fresh you can tell they make everything from scratch even their ketchup. The service was fast and friendly. And the ambiance was cozy and very rustic hence the name. The music playlist was on point too. We got the loaded fries to start which was very tasty, it had some type of smoked shredded beef on top and the French fries are to die for, hand cut potatoes, a lil heavy on the salt but the seasoning tasted good. We also got the Cajun shrimp Alfredo and the waygu beef sandwich both very good dishes. We had to try the cocktails we both got the watermelon sugar and the pebble beach, they weren't really to our tasting but they were both strong. Will definitely come back to try more. read more

We wondered how the restaurant keeps food fresh since we were the only two in the establishement at 6:30 PM. Food was marginal, no menus (better have a smartphone). Dicey stip center location with a Gym next door playing loud exercise music. Service was okay.We will not be returning. read more

Woooow!! This place was amazing!!! Our first time and we were not disappointed! So so so good! Plus great atmosphere and great service!! We ordered the Rustik Burger and Short Rib with mag potatoes !!! Try this place!! read more

Ethan is a gem... very friendly and did a great job on food and drink recommendations.We started off with cheese plate and Brussels recommend by Ethan. He was not wrong they were absolutely tasteful! The cocktails were great. Would love to see a more expansive wine list in the future. Food was amazing and wonderful gem to find in our new city read more

Sustainable and local food. It was superb!! It's a hidden gem. The wine was a nice pairing to my steak salad.

Kylie and Chelsea were fantastic. Very cheerful and friendly. Menu was intriguing with many rich and healthy options. The restaurant was louder than any I have encountered outside of a college dorm cafeteria. I am hearing impaired and generally do very well in loud places (50 years of learning how to block out background noise) and I was lost. My partner was struggling as well with the noise. Our food came out cold, but was quickly and kindly taken care of. Other than the host and server, no one else seemed very friendly. Our biggest disappointment, though, was the impossibility of having a conversation. read more

Awesome! The drunken goat burger was delish! Fries were the best! Highly recommend!! Great service too!

How do you rate a place with great food but horrible ambiance? The light was so bright above our table, I was pretty sure that I was about to be interrogated by the authorities. If you need to take your grandma to dinner, no worries...she'll see her plate. However, grandma is going to be pretty unhappy about having to use the QR code to get to the menu. Having said that, the server was exceptional. Friendly, helpful and knowledgeable, but the busperson seemed like clearing empty plates and glasses was just a bit below him. The food? Fabulous! The short rib was perfection and it was really nice to get a lobster cooked (and seasoned) correctly after just being served a raw one at Duane's. My daughter loved her vegan burger. She even made her carnivore mother try it and I thought it was really good. Just be prepared that this is a very loud and bright restaurant. Not a romantic place, in my opinion. We all decided that we won't be back due to the horribly bright lights. Take out? Yeah!! Eat in? Nooooo. read more

Was very excited about this place - went with a group of friends on a road trip. We're hoping for a quick and easy stop. Felt pretty taken advantage of by the end of it. Food was too expensive for a few of our team members so they just ordered coffees. Few price examples from their menu: Black Coffee($7); 3 eggs + 2 strips of bacon($22); eggs Benedict ($30-$45). The place wasn't busy - but it took about an hour to get our food. Server came by to refill water maybe twice within that hour. Food was good but multiple people had issues that they didn't voice because the wait was already so long. One persons steak was clearly burnt but she refused to send it back because she didn't want to wait any longer. I don't know if it's normal but I'm not used to places that add mandatory charges. We were charged 20% of total bill in a mandatory service charge and handed us the iPad with 18%, 20%, 25% tip options. The food was good. But the wait time, prices and paying an extra 38% minimum for bad service really sucked. read more

We decided to try out their brunch since they recently brought it back. Usually there is a wait and they take reservations, but we got lucky and were sat down right away. The hostess was quick and polite and the servers were nice. The food overall was a bit lacking. It was a hit and miss on some of the dishes: Crispy Brussel Sprouts - The starter came out really quick and they were at a good temperature. The brussel sprouts were cooked well and had a good char on them without having a really strong burnt taste. The bacon and sauce they used tasted great. Dish was seasoned well and would highly recommend offering if you decide to stop by. Chicken and Waffle - The chicken was tender and had a good flavor. The skin and batter was crispy but kept falling off. When I tried cutting the breast the breading would just separate. The waffle was very dense and tasted a bit undercooked. Everyone commented that it felt and tasted like a piece of hard bread. Wagu Benny - Steak was cooked well and was very tender. It came with potatoe cake instead of an English muffin which was a nice change. Eggs were poached perfectly. Fried potatoes were a bit mixed. The seasoning on them was great but they were a bit soggy. They looked like they were once crispy. Burger - Nice medium cook on it and buns we're good. Burger patty seemed a bit bland. It tasted like it was only seasoned on the outside. Shrimp and Grits - Very good and world recommend. Grits were creamy and cooked well. Shrimp was perfect. Had a good amount of sausage and tomatoes. Place was alright. We're going to continue looking for a great brunch place. read more

Great restaurant, but a bit on the pricey side. I love their concept of locally sourcing their ingredients. Also, keep in mind that they are by reservation only, at least according to the sign outside. I had the steak and added on shrimp as I really wanted to try the potato gratin. The steak was nice and tender, perfectly cooked. It came with a nice dollop of garlic butter on top. The shrimp was pretty tasty, however, I wish it had more of a char like some of the pictures had shown, but it looked like it was fried in a pan based on how it appeared. Still very plump and fresh. For an appetizer, we had the grilled bread which I would say is a pass at $5. It was drizzled with olive oil and balsamic but was still rather plain tasting and the cuts of bread were extremely thin. Overall, this place is a solid option if you're looking for a good meal. The flavors weren't too adventurous, but the preparation is very well done. As for the pricing, I did find it to be a bit pricey for what it was. The service was fantastic. read more

If you are looking for an organic foodie experience this is the place! We came for brunch and we're not disappointed! Service is top notch as we were greeted immediately and were met then with our server. She was very knowledgeable and gave us great recommendations. I enjoyed my hot peppermint latte. They have a variety of food items to choose from. The portions are generous and food is flavorful. The overall atmosphere is friendly and ambiance is inviting. We'll be back! read more

I wish I didn't eat my food so fast and took some pictures! The food at the Rustik fork hit all the marks and the Irish coffee was by far the best I've had! The service was flawless, the restaurant clean, and the music spot on. Though pretty pricy for Moreno Valley I will definitely be coming back to try every single menu item. read more

We've been wanting to try this place for a while now. Back when Covid started it seemed to always pop up in my recommendations. So after a long awaited time today was the day. We pulled into the private lot and there was plenty of parking. Walking in the place has a rustic steampunk vibe to it. Simple decor wide open. Choices of high table or low table and all metal chairs. Views inside are of the chefs working hard in their glass enclosed kitchen (think Hells Kitchen minus a bloody Englishman yelling). We sat down and water was brought to us within seconds. We started off ordering drinks and the goat cheese prosciutto wrapped dates. They were very good, my only qualm was that the dates needed a second layer of prosciutto (not a deal breaker). The wife ordered a sangria which was delicious and I ordered the Rustik razz drink. Both drinks were pricey $13+ and didn't have much alcohol, but they were delish. While enjoying these we ordered our main course. The wife ordered the goat cheese salad and I ordered the braised short rib with prawns. The meals came out in about 25 minutes and the presentation was elegant (see pictures). My wife's salad was pretty good. It had decent sized hamburger patty but the salad doesn't come with a dressing only a thick garlic aioli. My wife asked for a vinaigrette and they had a choice of blood orange or lemon, so she went with the lemon vinaigrette. It definitely needed that liquid. My short ribs also were good. The lacked a little flavor and quantity of Au Ju, maybe just some salt would've helped. I had two tiny carrots, two asparagus and some micro greens. The smoked Gouda was delicious but needed salt towards the end as well. They're dessert menu looked amazing but we did not have room. We will save room for next time. But be prepared to spend north of $100 for two people if you have an appetizer and drinks like we did. All in all we enjoyed our first visit and look forward to going again as seasonal items become available. read more

I wish I lived closer because I would love to visit more frequently but for now I can only recommend this restaurant to others. They will not disappoint. read more
