My latest favorite Westside restaurant – This is my latest favorite Westside restaurant. Selections change often, food is fabulous, wine selection by the glass and bottle is great and the service is impressive. Listen to your wait staff, they know what to recommend . . .some of my favorites are. . . the beet salad, shepherds pie (sounds weird but you have to try it, so fantastic), either of the fresh pastas, the duck confit, fish, and you have to have dessert! Hands down a must try!
Citysearch Editorial Review – Heavy dark woods, organic materials and high white ceilings create a romantic atmosphere. Votive candles flicker and a jazzy global beat plays low while the young Santa Monica crowd chills at the wine bar, in the small crowded lounge, or at tables and booths. Owner Josh Loeb spring-boarded off hosting wine dinners in his home, and he personally rotates boutique selections gleaned from small-production vineyards around the world. A seasonally driven Cal-Med menu features ingredients from local fa... read more
Like Eating at Home Among Friends With a Gourmet Chef Working Magic in the Kitchen – I am probably the biggest homebody I know. I don't go to my friends - they come to me. So it's significant when something actually lures me out of my shoe box apartment. One of my biggest temptations is Rustic Canyon, where everybody knows my name and can predict my favorite drinks and dishes. Half the time, I dine at RC alone, at the bar where my favorite bartender, Donan, serves me up his latest drink concoction and is polite enough to lau... read more
A really great meal, don't miss the doughnuts – Went to Rustic Canyon with a group of six last night. Food was AMAZING! I'm a Farmer's Market junkie, and I love that this really is a place that cooks from the market. The best dishes were a Butternut Squash pasta that I'm still craving today, Burrata bread salad, these delcious little mozzarella risotto things, and a grilled pork chop with roasted pears. I love the quality of the ingredients they use and our whole table was in love with the homemade doughnuts that came with a... read more
They should call this place Rustic Coingone 'cuz your coin will be gone when you leave and you will feel gyped. The food is tiny, like that AMPM commercial where the couple goes out for a nice dinner and the food is for rabbits, and they end up going to AMPM afterwards to fill up on junk food. While the wine list is solid, the hungover-while partying all night 20 something staff is a joke, the prices are sky high, there's a lot of noise and the tiny portions makes this a must-miss westside eatery. I appreciate the fresh ingr... read more
Not worth the expense – Just went to rustic Canyon recently, and although nothing was terrible, neither the service or the food justified the high prices. We started with the sweet corn agnolotti, which was the only highlight of the food for the night - very tasty and sweet... however, the portion was TINY - literally about 3 bites each for the two of us. We also got the soft shell crab - the crab itself was very good, but the accompanying corn concoction was quite bland. After waiting for about 15-20 minutes, we got our mai... read more
Pasta was so freakin good, as was the duck!!! – I've been a semi-regular at Rustic Canyon since they've opened and have always been a big fan. The food is fresh, not overly fussy, and you can truly taste the quality of the ingredients. ( I'm a Farmer's Market junkie and see the Chef and Pastry Chef at the Santa Monica Farmer's Market) all the time. I was in last week and had the Goat Cheese Tortellone, Soft Shell Crab with Corn Succotash, Duck with Morels and a delicously good Strawberry Crostata, and I have to say the food ... read more
Restaurant in Decline – I have eaten here many times, before the first chef left. Back then, they had the best lamb I have ever had anywhere. I just went back this evening for my birthday dinner and the food was terrible. The lamb(a special tonight) was too salty, fatty, flavorless and incredibly small. I used to love this place. Now I will never go back. The staff used to dress nicely, the customers as well, now it's mainly twenty year old trust-fund kids wearing sneakers, raggy tees and jeans who know nothing about and don... read more
Getting better and BETTER... – I completely disagree about the food taking a turn for the worse since their new chef was hired. I live around the corner and have eaten there twice in the last month and thought it was just as good as ever. Last week, my husband and I went there and shared the softshell crab over some type of corn succotash and for our main courses, we had the farro risotto and the scallops, which were AMAZING. They also have a new pasta section on the menu and the hostess told us that the new chef spent 3 mon... read more
