    The wait was a tad long even with a reservation (but they can’t really be blamed that Valentine’s Day happened to fall on a Friday anyhow) Once we were seated we had waters brought out and our very friendly server took incredible care of my partner and I. The food was delicious and everything I hoped it would be, there were two live music groups walking around and playing great music as well which added great atmosphere. Overall I cannot recommend this place enough to anyone, I’m sure you’ll be seated much faster on a better night as well so I wouldn’t bet on knocking this place because of it.

    It was an excellent experience on our first time here. My girlfriends and I meet weekly at different restaurants throughout Houston and we decided to give The Rustic a try. The host, James, that greeted us as we each arrived was very friendly and welcoming; telling us a bit about the restaurant and the live performances on weekends. The food was exceptional and well priced. The noise level was very good despite the size of the dining room. Parking was what we expect at the Uptown Park location but none of us had any issues as we all arrived at different times. Overall a great experience. We plan to return and bring our guys next time
