Who didn’t need to reinvent themselves during the pandemic, which impacted the whole world? Well, that’s where the “Menu do Chef” project came from exactly five years ago. Created to offer special dishes on the weekends, which later extend to catering services. The result was so surprising and we watched our dream turn into reality. For those who don’t know our chef’s story, we’d like to share a little bit of his fascinating journey. Rodrigo Demarco was born in São Paulo, Brazil. Since he was very young, he started his career working with gastronomy on the catering services with his uncle – Chef João Carlos Demarco. His first business was a pizzeria when he was just 16 years old. After that, other restaurants businesses emerged. …

Arrived at 2pm for a late lunch and the place was so clean! That was my first impression! It was only better from there! The owner/chef greeted us and explained the meaning since we are not familiar with Brazilian foods. Let me say- it was awesome! The place is perfect for a date night or business dinner and even a family thing like we were doing. We selected two appetizers- cheese bread and crispy pork belly. New items for us and very good! Then we ordered our entrees. I can’t pass up anything with a good short rib and the risotto was perfection. My husband went for the chefs recommendation of a true Brazilian favorite and he polished it off. What a great experience and we highly recommended it.

Rustic 21 Bistro was fantastic. The pork belly appetizer was delicious. Costela Bovina with Parmesan risotto was very tender, and the Picanha Top Sirloin Rustica melted in your mouth. Gracious staff fit us in without a reservation. Highly recommend.

Wow! My husband and I had a terrific foodie experience here. It had spectacular reviews, and we were in the area for an appointment, so we had to try it out to celebrate our wedding anniversary.
Rey was our attentive and friendly server. We started off with drinks (caipiroska for me, Coke and Pelegrino for my husband) and ordered pao de queijo (cheese bread), beef stroganoff (daily special), and well-done picanha top sirloin that my husband requested to be very lean. Everything was amazing – pao de queijo was soft, french fries were crunchy, and the meat was not fatty at all (just the way we like it!). We had the Bolinho de Cenoura (carrot cake) for dessert and it was delightful. The small portion was perfect for us since we were full from the meal. It was loaded with carrot flavor, and the chocolate tasted exactly like the chocolate from a lava cake. A definite must try for anyone that loves cake or cake pops. Total was about $105 (excluding tip).
The location is on the cozy side with about 12 tables and a handful of bar seating. Restrooms are single occupancy and very clean. Entire location is well-kept but not built for large parties unless you have reservations.
We were lucky to beat the late dinner crowd since we arrived around 6:30 pm, and reservations are required/recommended if you plan to dine at 8pm or later. Reservations are a must if you’d like to guarantee a seat during date night dinner Excellent service, cute location, free parking. We’d come back here again for a romantic Jax date.

I’m in awe of this little gem. We went around lunchtime and were surprised to find the place entirely empty. We were the only table and it was honestly so intimate but I do want more people to try this place so come try!!!
The food was AMAZING 10/10 so delicious!!!! Oh my God I was in food heaven. The risotto and braised short ribs is literally to die for. The crispy pork appetizer was perfect. Everything was so fresh, hot you can tell it was cooked at the moment.
Their mule is soooo yummy!! Also 10/10
The service was so good as well. Christian was an excellent service.
To conclude this review I just want to say this place deserves the recognition of what a good restaurant actually is.

I’m not from the area and was visiting family when I decided to stop in for dinner. Since it was my first time, I was a bit nervous—but I ended up having a great experience and really enjoyed the food.
I definitely recommend making a reservation. It’s a small spot that fills up quickly, and since we didn’t have one, the wait was quite long. The hostess kindly suggested that we book ahead next time.
We started with a few appetizers, and both the pork belly and the burrata were excellent. The pork belly was especially impressive—tender, juicy, and perfectly seasoned. My friend ordered the braised short ribs, which looked and smelled so amazing that I had to try a bite—it did not disappoint. Others in our group also enjoyed the salted cod and shrimp dishes.
I had the chicken stroganoff, and I loved the unique sauces and sides that complemented the entrée so well. To finish, we sampled a variety of desserts, with the carrot cake and chocolate being a standout favorite.

This was a wonderful find! The food was delicious and the service and staff were great. I was with a party of 4 so we sampled several appetizers and everyone had a different entree -which we all sampled, lol. Everything perfect. Very much looking forward to my next visit!
