About this business
A little about Rustic Cafe Built in 1947 as the Rustic Inn, it was a large restaurant, bar and dance hall ( the picture to the right is of the original liquor license ). It was known to have the likes of Frank Sinatra and Will Rogers stop by for evenings out. After a devestating fire in the early '60's, it was rebuilt in 1969 to its present, cozy size and renamed Rustic Cafe.

Unimpressed. First and last visit. Very obvious that they only care about the regulars.
It's a great place to eat. The staff and owner are great people.
The place was freezing windows open, my dinner was cold, 2 others meat was overdone & dry. No excuse!
My favorite when visiting home. Love a rare steak and dirty martini in the winter and a boiled lobster and lobster martini in the summer. The best!
The best little place found it trying to avpid traffic on 95... Best detour ever!!!
A great little place for a small bite or meal. The service, food, and the atmosphere were all awesome. We will definitely go often!!
The best show in town! Great food, great drinks, always a good group of people. Should definitely check this place out.
Worst service and mediocre food! A rainy Saturday afternoon and you would think with hardly anyone there you'd get you food in a timely fashion! My wife and I had heard good things about this place. The waitress (Sara) had the worst attitude which ruined our first date night out in years! My prime rib was over cooked and my wife's soup was cold and it was impossible to get the waitress's attention. She was more concerned about the guys at the bar! We skipped coffee and dessert and went elsewhere. Skip this place!
Not a good night at this place! Cold soup and bad service.
