Rustico Wood Fired Grill and Wine Bar

Not so hidden, but still a gem in Flowermound. I would suggest reservations, but they do take walk ins. We were greeted by a friendly hostess, waited just a bit for our table to be ready and were offered an meatball (or two) while we waited. Once we were sat, Christopher, our server took great care of us, explaining the menu, asking if we had any questions. We had the meatballs as an an app, and they were perfect. Next up the wedge salad with an amazing dressing. The filet was next, cooked to perfection. We added lobster tails and the scallops which were prepared perfectly. The Chocolate Something for dessert was to die for! Highly recommend Rustico for any occasion, but it also delivers for those special nights out as well.

First of all, I highly recommend this restaurant. They’ve got a tremendous comprehensive menu and reasonable prices. The service is outstanding and Davis did a great job making me feel welcome and taking care of my demanding needs. The shrimp dip was amazing and easily enough for three or four people. I am a huge fan of au gratin potatoes and theirs is among the best. I had the blackened red fish. The itself was very good, but not at all spicy. And I really didn’t care for the tomato cream sauce, but that is just me. It may have been the fact that it was on dirty rice that made it not great for my taste. I really look forward to my next visit to try some of the other staples. I sampled the bread pudding for dessert. It was very good but I would’ve liked it better with raisins. Lol

We visited this restaurant for the first time, and while it’s quite far from where we live, I have to say — it was worth the drive. The ambiance was excellent. The service stood out as well — the staff was attentive, friendly, and made us feel truly welcomed. Now coming to the food — it was absolutely delicious. At first, I wondered why this place had so many 5-star reviews, but after experiencing it myself, I completely understand. The quality, flavor, and presentation of the dishes made it feel well worth it. Despite the distance, this spot is definitely going on our list of places to return to.

ANANTA; the manager here is very friendly and cares about the quality of service and food! He is sociable and really takes care of his customers and restaurant ! We tried a secret menu item; a grilled portobello mushroom with a grilled carrot ! AMAZING flavors , fun atmosphere, engaging staff !! Such an awesome experience we had today !

We went for the first time last night on a whim and had one of the best dinners and service ever. We had reservations at 6:15, and arrived an hour earlier than planned. The hosts adjusted on the fly and sat us immediately (it was pre dinner rush and there were tables available). Our server Taylor was personable, knowledgeable (knew the menu front to back, including items that weren’t on the menu), and attentive. We started with a couple of their signature cocktails and the meatball appetizer, followed by the surf and turf and veal chops, and ended with the cheesecake and the peanut butter cup martini. Everything, let me repeat EVERYTHING, was amazing. Not once did we feel like we were being rushed by the staff to finish, empty plates and glasses were picked up promptly and discreetly by th
