Rustico

The moment we heard that Marty B’s owner, Marty Bryan, and his business partner, Alan Mann, were working on a new restaurant concept in Flower Mound, we knew we needed to be one of the first to tell their story and check this place out.

Rustico is everything we were promised it would be - an upscale, intimate restaurant setting right here in Flower Mound. No need to drive to Downtown Dallas or Fort Worth to enjoy that kind of dining experience!

They have put a lot of work into sourcing the best ingredients possible for their menu. You won’t find any hormones or antibiotics and everything has been humanely raised, so you’re only eating the cleanest and best food.

We tried out a TON of Rustico’s dishes while filming, so we’ll highlight some of the dishes we think are absolute All-Stars.

Appetizers

Rustico makes the best first impression with some of their signature appetizers like their take on a Cheese Board with artisan cheese, charcuterie, glazed pecans, pistachios, and a Tabasco jelly and the Prime Filet Marsala which is a beautiful filet served on top of crostini with a mushroom marsala drizzle.

Signature Dishes

I love sea bass and Rustico’s hit the spot for me. Their Pan Seared Sea Bass comes topped with a lemon butter and is the perfect amount of decadence without being too heavy.

Their signature chicken dish is their Chicken Rustico topped with prosciutto and fontina and served with a marsala wine sauce.

And their Prime Filet is out-of-this-world, oh-my-gosh, you-have-to-try-this amazing! Perfectly grilled and simply served to let

the star of the dish truly be the filet. You would pay big money for this kind of steak anywhere else.

Desserts

Whether you choose their Quatro Leches Cake, Turtle Cheesecake, or their killer “Chocolate Something,” you cannot go wrong! Each option is the perfect ending to an incredible meal.

Next time you’re looking for an intimate date night spot, or a place to have a quiet night out with friends or colleagues, Rustico needs to be top of your list. We guarantee everyone in your party will leave happy!
