Rustic House Oyster Bar & Grill is not just another restaurant. It’s the only restaurant that offers the best and freshest quality seafood in a comfortable, casual and exciting environment. We wanted a place to share the best times with family and friends. Every one of our senses will be stimulated from taste and smell, too look and feel! We put a lot of great thought & pride into who we are. As the only restaurant in Los Altos that offers such an experience, we strive to set a new standard in casual dining for our community.The Bar is open until 8:45 pm Sunday through Thursday and 9:45 pm Friday/Saturday.

For centuries, a taverna has been a neighborhood gathering place where friends can meet to eat, drink and enjoy life. Taverna co-founders Thanasis Pashalidis and Hakan Bala were raised with a shared ethical compass, which the Greeks call "philotimo" or "love of honor". Family and friends are their ingredients of life, and they believe that nutrition, happiness and health are all directly correlated. Both partners have been culturally influenced by the remedies of the old world and incorporate them into the lifestyle of Taverna. Both have an "ethos" that drives them and inspires others to live fully, which they consider the flavor of life's success. They understand that life is to be enjoyed and that time is of the essence. They are aware that every day is a gift. Taverna has been created to make people happy and feel alive.
