Was Madilyn Harvey at Rustic Root a mag?
good experience. The only major complaint was that my steak sandwich was overcooked for my taste. I decided not to send it back but they would have easily revised it. View all feedback.

What Name Bechtelar dislikes about Rustic Root:
The ambience was decent and the staff was good. Other than that, I can't say anything positive about this place. Our meals were lukewarm, mixed and some of the sides had no taste at all. While they have a bar and their own cocktails, if you ask for something that is not on the menu, you probably won't get it. And yes, unfortunately, even the cocktail drinks we ordered tasted awful. Bad bar staff. It also took them al... View all feedback.

I debated for some time between giving this restaurant 1 star or 2 stars.

Food is pretty good here (just some tiny complaints here and there) But service is great! Also really really love the aesthetic you! We were seated on the rooftop and it was really vibey with the music and all of that. No wait time for brunch either! Igot the Kale Caesar Salad with Chicken (baby kale, shaved parmesan, roasted tomatoes, pine nuts, sourdough croutons, caesardressing) And it went much above my expectations. Some of the kale salads I've had recently at restaurants have all been withthe shredded kale and grated Parmesan all over it. But this was so much better. Soft baby kale with shaved Parmesan on top andsome really good roasted tomatoes to go with. This was a very good triple threat! I usually ask for no tomatoes on my salad butthe roasted ones here were so good. The flavor went together very well with the kale and the Parmesan and the dressingtogether. That dressing was also really nice and creamy. A housemade Caesar dressing I think. As for that chicken? Oh man, thischicken was so soft! So perfectly cooked. I wouldn't mind having it just plain with that dressing and some bits of kale. I alsoasked for extra greens on the side and the server gave me a side salad worth of baby kale topped with even more roasted tomatoesand croutons. All of this at no charge. Really great service here! One complaint here though was the sourdough croutons. Theywere extremely oily! It was like they were deep fried in oil or something. So even though they were crunchy all I could tastewas oil and not bread. I ended up eating only two or three pieces of croutons and leaving the rest out. My husband got theGreek Chicken Wrap (sun-dried tomato tortilla, grilled chicken breast, romaine , roasted olives, garlic hummus, cucumber,marinated tomatoes, feta, greek dressing) And he loved it. He was very impressed by how all the flavors went together, and alsohow much vegetable there was in there. I tried some of it and it was pretty good. Just not the flavor combin

Place is very lively. Our waitress was very friendly and helpful. I had the spicy salmon dish, very light and delicious. I wasn't to crazy about the appetizer, It was the HEIRLOOM TOMATO BURRATA. The cheese wasn't super appetizing and felt like itneeded more flavor.
