Pizzeria Rustica

This is the second time that my boyfriend and I have visited this restaurant, and it never disappoints! We happened to stumble across it last summer during a day trip to Colorado Springs. Today, we decided to drive 40 minutes to Colorado Springs just to eat here! The service is amazing and our waitress, Lauren, was very kind and attentive. The food is spectacular and tastes authentic. We highly recommend the burrata as an appetizer. The Rustica pizza is our favorite, and has to be paired with their truffle oil! The pizza is so flavorful and has that wood fire pizza taste. For dessert, the cannolis were delicious. Highly recommend checking out this awesome place!

Excellent food and authentic atmosphere! The food came pretty quickly and was definitely worth it. It’s a good idea to make a reservation in advance to avoid a wait, especially during busy times.

My husband and I went there on a date. We had a reservation, yet we were seated at a communal table. The restaurant wasn’t very busy and there were lots of open tables, but they ended up seating us right next to a family with kids. It ruined the entire experience and I will probably never go back. Why leave a whole bunch of open tables and have people sit right next to each other? It was very weird.

Amazing experience, they were super busy when we went, with only Blake and Ashley working. They killed it and the food was amazing! This is now our new favorite pizza place. I highly recommend the fonduta, meatballs, and any of their pizzas. The dough is perfect. We tried their dessert pizza, which was pizza dough, Nutella, and powdered sugar. Delightful and delicious!

Dietary restrictions: They do not have gluten free pizza (obviously).

Food great. I would say even excellent! If I could please recommend cutting the salad so its easier to eat, also my salad had an olive pit in it. That could be a possible sucky situation if I didn't notice. Just thought you should know since the importance of it.
Take out, I always tip but when the host assumes I am leaving her my change without returning it, well that is not okay. Then as I walk out mumbles - but I heard her calling me a name. I said Thank you to her and was polite but yeah these days it is my choice to tip so do not assume it.

This place is incredible. I thought I had tasted the best pizza in COsprings and then I had this place, I was wrong before, this place is the best. The Regina Super Margherita and the Salumi were 🤌🤌🔥. The charcuterie was also worth mentioning, so so good. We will be back again and again. Peroni is available. Anna gave incredible service. Atmosphere was also Bene🇮🇹🇮🇹

This was amazing. Pretty authentic if you like real Italian cuisine and who doesn’t. The crust was thin but not a cracker, still tender. All the ingredients were top shelf. From the salad to dessert it was a treat.

Vegetarian options: Also accommodate vegan.

Parking: Just street and since a holiday week the meters were off.

Wheelchair accessibility: There was a single step up. Restrooms are upstairs.

Blake, the head Chief, was wonderful to talk to and very proud of the quality and authenticity of the food. You can really taste the care and simple elegance in everything they do.

Highly recommended!

Pizza (marinara) and salad (special--arugula, artichoke hearts, pepitas, goat cheese, salumi bits, cranberry vinaigrette) some of the best I have ever had! Warm and attentive service. Lovely selection of wine and local beers. No room for dessert today--have had the butterscotch budino with a previous visit, and it's craveable.

My family and I stopped by this cozy restaurant one evening after a day of shopping. Six of us shared three pizza’s and 2 appetizers. The crust was perfect, the flavors perfectly balanced, and the staff was inviting. For simplicity, we parked niña. Public lot across short walk away that was only a couple of bucks.
We would visit this establishment again.
