Partners and long-time friends, Ryan Hines and Jay Kulas believe that the most important moments in life are about building relationships and usually involve a great meal. Maintaining a friendship for over fifteen years, the two shared a common approach when it came to opening a restaurant - to create a warm and comfortable atmosphere for friends and family to gather, curate experiences and build meaningful connections. Stripping away the formalities of the typical dining experience, The Rustic Spoon is serving up breakfast, brunch and lunch while focusing on quality local ingredients, family recipes, warm service and a relaxed causal ambiance. Rooted in family, friends and food they offer diners a one of a kind atmosphere to enjoy comfort food recipes with a modern and local twist.

    Sunday Brunch! Delicious.....as always...... one had a huge omelet, one had fluffy pancakes, one had the Rustic Burger and one had a salmon salad. ALL WERE GREAT! We had a variety of foods at our table and everything was perfect. That is hard to do in most restaurants, but Rustic Spoon has mastered it. We love coming here for meals and it's always a favorite when we have guests, because we can count on them being served a wonderful dish! Thanks Rustic Spoon! :-)

    First time here and will definitely be back! I want to try the whole menu, everything we ordered was so yummy and everyone else’s food around us looked really great too! We went for Valentine’s Dinner and got the calamari to start, then the potato crusted salmon and the seafood pasta. All very tasty!

    My wife and I went for Valentines Day. The restaurant was rocking. But we were seated right away, thankfully we made a reservation on Open Table. Service was great. Food and drinks took a little longer than usual, but it was Valentines Day and we weren't in a rush anyway. The oysters rockafeller special was fantastic. As was the rock fish. Meredith, our server was attentive and friendly. We truly love everything we ordered. The owners or managers were present and made it a point to visit every table. You could see the pride they take in their restaurant (and rightfully so). We can't wait to go back.

    We were greeted immediately upon entering the restaurant. Our server was enthusiastic and friendly. Her drink and food suggestions were on spot. There were four of us and each of our entrees were good - received hot, tasted good and we all took food home.
