Rustic Kitchen Bistro - Wilkes Barre

Great atmosphere food was delicious from food to staff was very friendly and made you feel welcome, I am happy to come back

We went to dinner a while ago. I love the establishment and ambience of the restaurant. We went on a Saturday and the cook made a show. Apparently on the weekends, she hosts a Prix Frie dinner in which the cook for and chats with a small(ish) group of Diners. Interesting. We ordered a few things from the Italian spring rolls, Chowder, a special, the meat balls, a burger. All fresh and tasty, the cracker was creamy and tasty, pops usually do not eat NE style, but this has it. Everything was cooked wisely to the right temps steak. Drinks where fresh and thoughtful. The only disappointment was the Caesar, the dressing tasted more like a lemon farm that attracts the true Caesar, maybe they played it down to insult the masses? Anyway, the only reason that would keep us away in the future is the price. This place is cheap. I hope you do well at the tables then come for a dinner.

Rustic cuisine is definitely improving their game when it comes to eating. But I must say the amount of food you receive for the price you pay, I would definitely think not to go back there. I understand about inflation and the price of everything, but today for a piece of fish two dishes one was $40 and let me just say I had been on the next weis and just bought the food and I could have eaten for a week. I understand that it's nice when you go to the casino, you have a room that you want to eat, but they're just not a place to have these kind of prizes. You better go to Ruth Chris and get first-class food there.

The food here is delicious, best chicken Marsala! We love Leah, she always cares about us?

Now, let me say I came hungry for dinner I did not expect to hear a rib eye special. For those who read my reviews, give me a rib eye over a filet any day (unless your buying me the filet). This was tender, perfectly seasoned to a slightly spicy peppercorn crust with a wine compound butter,(sold before they even told me about the butter). I am not picky, I am not fat, but d@mn I love a good steak and this special knocked it out of the park. 2 others at the table got the same perfectly cooked to their temp (medium for mine). Not a huge chain fan, but worth a quick call to see if they have it on special, I (40s male) and give this meal 2 thumbs up and a Togo container for the dogs. I always support local and if it means our local waiter gets a fat tip I am for it. Be safe out there fellow foodies...
