Our Story

Opened in 2019 by Chef Tomás Rivera and his partner Leah, The Rustic Fork was born from a simple idea: cook what the land gives us this week. We partner with six farms within 50 miles and change our menu with the seasons. The dining room seats 42 guests, and our back patio opens spring through fall.
