Grilled Fish tacos were good, but expected more flavour, since it was $15 for 3. Plus some of the lettuce used in the tacos were browning or already browned.

I thought it was just a place for weddings but definitely not. I'm surprised there isn't many people when the food is pretty good and it has really good desserts. Very fast service and not too expensive honestly it's great and they deserve more people.

This was downright awful! We were excited to try a small local place, but left disappointed.

We were the only customers, parking lot was empty, and we should have taken that as our sign.

Thought it was nice that they give you a sample of their cake, but when it is old and moldy (all three of us literally had to spit back in the containet they serve it in) they should not serve. How do you jack up Red Velevet cake? !

I ordered the lunch combo, chicken poblan soup (I apologize for the misspellings) with no chicken in my soup, Ceasars salad, and a turkey sandwich. My husband ordered the mole omelet, that had no cheese, but lots of sauce. Our daughter ordered potato soup, she liked that, Ceasars salad, and Club sandwich, did not like anything else.

We had to get up and leave it was so bad... $45 loss, leaving with food poison, the meat sweats, and a horrible feeling that the food was as old as their cake displays.

This was just an unfortunate experience for all of us involved. I hate to write bad experiences, but this was necessary to share so no one has to experience what we did.

I wish I could like this place. But unfortunately, it juat sucks! We have been here 3 times since it opened and every time has been a zero star experience. The 1st time, I got food poisoning a couple years a ago, the 2nd time our food was inedible and there was zero service to be had. This time we went bc our normal breakfast spot was closed. There is absolutely zero service! If you need a refill or your food is wrong, you must go to the counter. My food tasted and smelled like windex! I only took one bite, and spit it out. When I complained, I was told that it was the syrup they use. LOL, windex flavored syrup. I think they were cleaning the counter and overspray got on my plate. My wife's omlet was acceptable, but my food was down right toxic and I still had to pay for it. What a joke, this place is trash, there are too many good places to eat, don't waste your time and money here!

I can't beleive I'm having to do this! This place used to be amazing! My wife and I used to treat ourselves here and looked forward to our time. We ended up leaving not even finishing our food because of how unacceptable it was. I am sick to my stomach from the chicken on my chicken salad. Needless to say we won't be coming back.

I order our son's birthday cake from here and all our guests raved about how good the cake tasted. Rustika is known for their strawberry cake. We had one tier strawberry and other funfetti. I was able to order through the manager who is very nice. Definitely recommend and plan to order again in the future.

Place is perfect for breakfast or lunch date or with family. Lots of menu options and all tastes like scratch cooking! Skinny avocado toast with poached eggs eggs delicious and the chilaquiles definitely tastes like my mother in laws authentic Mexican cooking! Must get the fresh squeezed orange juice my 2 year old loves! We also got a cake for a birthday their famous raspberry. Memorable food!

I've been wanting to try their breakfast menu for a few months now. I finally decide to make the drive from lake jackson and wouldn't you know it's closed even though it says open on Sunday and has a sign on the door stating yes we're open

A birthday cake was ordered for pickup @1: 30pm on Saturday with signage & border edge requested, and neither was done. We decided to eat lunch to wait on cake. Lunch pricey, slow service, both teas bitter tasting.
Cake ready at 3pm.
The cake texture was the same as the grocery store.
League City Rustika has always been great, friendly, helpful & tasty

This place is a gem. I highly recommend it. Freshly prepared food and baked goods. Very clean and pleasant atmosphere. This is my new favorite place for breakfast

Loved the baked goods! I tried 5 different ones, and they were all delicious.

Chilaquiles are great here if you're a fan of that dish!

The best term I have to explain this place is off-putting. It was an unusual experience, not like most restaurants. The menu looked great but the food was disappointing. Flavors and cooking style was indicative of Middle-Eastern food. My wife and I left feeling sick. Hard to find something positive to say. Idk.the iced tea was good it was just weird to scoop ice out if a bucket… all round weird and uncomfortable.

I literally just walked in and asked if they could do a cake for someone who just graduated from massage therapy school. Leon said “we can do anything”. He wasn’t kidding! Lol. I did research them before hand because I wanted a cake that had fewer preservatives. They definitely fit the bill! It was delicious and beautiful!

This was our first visit to Rustika and it was great! I ordered the French toast + bacon. It was really good! My friend ordered crepes and a chi tea latte. She said both were really good. The staff was nice. We will definitely be back to try other things from the menu.

First time visiting but definitely won’t be my last. I can’t believe I haven’t been here before. Food and service are fantastic and the prices are unbelievably low. I will be a regular starting today!

Ate breakfast there yesterday, I ordered oatmeal did not come with milk or brown sugar, I asked 3 times for brown sugar they gave me turbinado cane sugar that is not brown sugar for oatmeal where I am from which is up north. My family said they have had a better breakfast. 5 to 6 table in the place had dirty dishes on them while we were eating. No waitstaff had to order our own breakfast and pay at counter. We will never go there again.
