***UPDATE REVIEW 2024*** With their newly renovated resto I need to do an update 😁😁😁 Ordered : Corn Chowder - 10/10 be sure to eat it right away or else di na sya masarap pag malamig 3 Cheese pizza : 10/10 freshly baked pizza tlga are the best!! Especially own dough Dee Heirloom Spaghetti Bolognese - 9/10 sarap ha!!! Sa sobrang dami ng spices very tasty the noodles are perfectly cooked din!! We had fries and pancake with coffee. OK din un Avocado Shake with pearls. This time I called for a 12noon reservation, we arrived 11:30am and got our table by 11:45. Its Sunday kaya expected mo na maraming tao... pero they will accept pa rin walk-ins maganda na ang waiting area kaya I don't think you'll get annoyed waiting unless your hungry 🙃 So far I do loved the new place... mejo tight parking parin - plus the parking guards are ..... hay naku!!! But the staffs!!! Superb nice and friendly kahit busy very approachable naman. So I must say... must must try and visit sana talga more menu in their list ☺️☺️☺️ OK naman, but when visiting it is more advisable if you have a reservation. No more waiting tho' they accept walk-in customers. We had a heavy brekky kaya light lunch lang. Ordered: Truffle Cream Pasta 8/10 Pizza with Pineapple and Bacon 8/10 Half Plain Half Churos waffle 10/10 (My son is a waffle addict so it's a 10 for him. I tasted the churos masarap nga! We had Strawberry Milkshake and Chocolate Chip Frappe (taste coffee 😶) The ambience is nice. It's an open area, they have ac area but I guess those are for reserved dining customers 😊 Mejo I have to follow up lang the waitress for our food but the rest must visit and try this resto. 😍 they have a parking space naman, but we parked at the church para we can stroll around the area 😊

We were super lucky because no one was there when we had our brunch. It was before closing time, around 3 PM. Plenty of parking outside. The place is very pretty, well-maintained and with a beautiful design, reminded me if Tunisian art. It's a quality restaurant for the price you pay, however you can enjoy great breakfast at other restaurants, at a cheaper price. It was nothing out of the ordinary, just a delicious brunch. Staff was kind and we got our order fast. We ordered meal 23 (waffle, breaded chicken and salad) and meal 29 (french toast, eggs, bacon and sausage). Meal 23 was good, quality ingredients, the salad was with real parmesan cheese and the chicken wasn't oily at all. It came with salsa sauce. The waffles were also delicious, they served it with home-made syrup. In meal 29 the toast was very thick and filling, and the cream on top gave a good combination with the sugar and cinnamon. The scrambled eggs were runny and the sausages were more like a hotdogs. The only "complaint" is that it only came with two strips of crispy bacon and two very small hotdogs. We also had hazelnut iced coffee (not sweet, perfect for my taste) and a cookie crumble frappe which was good. Overall, it was an experience, I think they target tourists since it has Instagramable places inside and higher prices. Worth the try.

I love that they have a large parking space, and they were almost full, just means people really love this place. My first time seeing this kind of themed restaurant/cafe in/near Metro Manila. The word Rustic really befits its name when you first take a peek at its interiors. I liked the entrace to the dining area, it was covered in foliage. I loved that you have to go through some leaves before the path takes you to the restaurant itself, very well though-of design. They also have both al-fresco and indoor dining areas to choose from. I think the place could use an upgrade though. Some wooden chairs are old they're creaking loudly. And I also was casually scared sitting on some of the steel chairs as I was wearing white and there were some sort of rust (not sure if they did that on purpose to live up to its name lol) build-up in it that might stain my shirt. The menu has lots of items to choose from. I got their Mushroom Soup (6/10) first for appetizer. It was really creamy, won't say it's really good but the taste is interesting enough for me to enjoy it. Ooh and it had a freshly baked/toasted (not sure) Garlic Bread (9/10) on the side which I super duper loved! A must-try! My sister had Caramel Macchiato (6/10). It looked and tasted just your average specialty beverage sold on the street/fairs. It was not as good as Starbucks' but pwede na. I ordered the TapSiLog (8/10) one (not sure what the actual name is) for my main course. The Tapa was amazing. It was sweet, slightly salty and there was definitely umami. What I also loved was how generous the serving was - price-wise. Lol. I never loved Truffle, uhlkk, I know its taste, and it tastes like gasoline lol. They have a Carbonara (7/10) dish (not sure of the name) which my sister oredered. Tasted it and was actually surprised. I definitely tasted truffle but the taste was actually not NOT GOOD. It was bearable xD. And I actually enjoyed how creamy the pasta dish is. We also had pizza for sharing. We got the one with prosciutto and arugula (8/10). It was good, it was a cheesy pizza with bits of those prosciutto strips and arugula leaves on top. I also got the bottomless Calamansi Iced Tea (7/10) as my drink. It was really good but it was too sweet, you'd have to add some water to balance it out. Loved it tho, it reminded me of Wendy's Calamansi Iced Tea which is my fave. Lastly, I got the blueberry pancakes (6/10) for dessert. Loved the pancake (6/10), tho I think I loved it cuz it tasted like the ones my mom cooks at home (the boxed pancake mix sold in groceries). Just loved how moist and soft the cakes were prepared but the taste? Nothing special. Also, they just added sweetened blueberry sauce on top of it. Overall, I think this is a cool place to dine in to but just if you have the bucks to spend on their meals. The menu is not for the ones looking to save money tho, I mean, sure they have generous servings but I'm pretty sure there are other restaurants whose prices really matches their foods' quality/taste. Not to hate tho, I really think the food is definitely great esp. for breakfast/brunch people. And I also think the place has such an awesome ambiance, perfect for hanging out. :)

If you're ever in town, don't pass up the chance to visit this charming garden cafe—it's a must-see! Remember to make a booking before coming no matter how many people you have. Here are three things that won my heart: Firstly, the decor is absolutely enchanting. The garden setting adorned with hanging pans and pots creates a lovely, creative, and romantic atmosphere. The Greek vibe with its blue and white theme adds an extra touch of magic. Secondly, the menu boasts a wide range of food options, including standard brunch fare, all at extremely affordable prices. It's a refreshing change from other cafes in Makati. Thirdly, the cafe's prime location right next to the shoe museum makes it incredibly convenient for a delightful brunch after museum activities. While my experience was fantastic overall, a small hiccup was the staff's limited knowledge of the menu. There are different types of beans for the Americano, but when I asked, I was simply offered the "usual" one—with neither the staff nor I knowing which beans were considered usual. Additionally, those with strict dietary requirements might want to double-check their orders. In the end, it was a great experience, and the drive to get there was definitely worth it!

Honestly, I did not enjoy my first visit here more than 5 years ago (it was so cramped and service is pretty terrible that time) but I decided to give it another try because this is definitely one of the most beloved restaurants in Marikina in locals and tourists alike. The ambience has improved. Lives up to its name (Rustic) and perfect for intimate brunch dates. The service is also awesome. The staff including the guard who helped us in parking is very nice. Menu selection has a good variety of choices (expect brunch + cafe). I ordered their truffle pasta and frozen brazo mercedes. The truffle pasta is one of the best I tried so far. Pasta is al dente and sauce is generous with the truffle and mushrooms. Their frozen brazo mercedes taste pretty good, not to sweet. This time, we love our experience. It’s worth the hype. Price point is on the high side but I think it’s fair considering the generous serving (the pasta serves 2 adults) and the quality. Just a heads up for those who want to eat here soon. Parking is available but may be a bit challenging if there are many vehicles in the area since it’s very popular. Best time to visit is off peak hours (weekday brunch-lunch time).

Beautifully designed, Rustic Mornings gives you an experience. This new location feels a bit more artsy, with a tad more whimsy and a hint more liveliness to it. But the food is still the food. So on to that: - Beef Tapa: My favourite dish of the meal. Beef was tender, thinly sliced, with that perfect tangy-sweet flavour balance. - Sardine and Sundried Tomato Pasta: Strong flavours that perfectly matched. Generous amount of sardines and sun dried tomatoes went well with the al dente pasta. A wonderfully done pasta by a place I associate with breakfast food. - Crispy Plain Waffles: Pretty tasty on its own (which is a good sign), though a bit too crispy and chewy for me. - Pancakes: Soft and pillowy. Definitely preferred these to the waffles. - Spinach, Mushroom and Cheese Omelette: The omelette was melt-in-your-mouth fluffy. Unfortunately it was also a bit bland. Good amount of cheese but would have liked more mushrooms and spinach. - Hazelnut Coffee: Strong hazelnut taste. Appreciated that it wasn't watered down. Service was attentive and efficient. Prices are fairly reasonable. And again, that beautiful space to laze the mornings away. A delightful spot overall.
