Our server Eric remembered us and welcomed us back in as soon as we walked into the dining room. As always, he was fantastic! I tried the rack of lamb chops for the first time in our many visits, and it was impeccable. Wonderful crust and seasoning on the outside and perfect medium rare inside. My wife had the eggplant Parmesan, which stands out for being very lightly breaded, not a deep fried bomb. She commented that it was even better than usual last night. Ambiance is always nice and sets the tone for the meal. The whole team took good care of us.

We've been to Sedona several times and enjoy dining at all the Lisa Dahl restaurants. This time, twice at Pisa Lisa, once at Butterfly Burger, tonight at Cucina Rustica and tomorrow night (for our 40th anniversary) at Mariposa Latin Inspired Grill.
Tonight at Rustica was a great evening save the service. Eric, our wait person, may have been overloaded but the service, compared to other Lisa Dahl restaurants, was off. Everything a bit slow. Saying that, I gave Eric the choice of the pork chop, the halibut and the shell fish linguini, and he totally delighted me with the linguini. It was the best I've ever had. Wife loved her veal Marcella and all the food was perfect. Given all your options, I'd rather have the food perfect and the service off than vice versa. However, I'm not being too hard on service; it was still a 4 star. All in all, it was a great experience. Thank you Eric, for a great evening.

Wonderful food in a romantic setting. Don't miss!!
Lisa, Something unusual happened last night on the patio. No one came by to fill water and with each course, food was served with dirt dishes from the previous course still on the table. Perhaps a waiter/busser didn't show, but we brought another couple who had never been there and it was a bit embarrassing. Your restaurants are always perfection, so I wanted you to know.

If you want real Italian food, this is must! The pastas seem handmade and you can tell the difference in the ingredients!

No complaints on the Bolognese dish. I sat at the bar. Mat, the bartender waited on me. I was very surprised by how stale his personality is. When you're behind the bar, it's a given that you are to be friendly and interact with the customer.
When I was presented with the bill, I had to have the general manager breakdown all these extra charges. What kind of shenanigans is this Lisa Dahl?!😳

Michael was an absolutely amazing server. He made the experience 10x better by his attentiveness, demeanor and recommendations. His helper Luis (I think that was his name) was great too, always making sure our water was full and clearing plates. It was a bit on the expensive side but we didn't mind as it was a great place to celebrate our 3rd wedding anniversary and we will be back.

The place is not only beautiful, but classy and stylish, decorated like an Italian mansion. Every room offers different atmosphere and different experience, from a cosy family sitting room to a lush dining room with starry night sky. The food is really good. The staff, however, are super friendly and helpful. Wonderful experience of fine dining.
