Food was amazing and atmosphere was cozy and comfortable. Bella was an awesome server and we really enjoyed Cucina Rustica. We had the calamari, chicken parmesan and lobster scampi, all were delicious!

Meatballs were a fail, not sure why they were absolutely delicious just a few months back. Main courses were great, we had the salmon and pasta and the cannelloni. Atmosphere wasn’t great maybe I’m a stickler but paper tables covers and a few other things made it feel a bit odd. Otherwise had a good experience and the waitress was phenomenal! She didn’t hassle us when we weren’t pleased with the meatballs and served us with respect.

Excellent eggplant Parmesan and chicken Parmesan. Good Caesar salad but heavy on the dressing. Nice warm bread. Tasty mushroom raviolis. Meatballs are good. Attentive service. Atmosphere a bit dated and tired. I resent a financial charge for a no show. But we are careful to make our reservation so not a problem. Overall recommend! Except food.

When in a mountain town and wanting good food, local friend service, and great location! People said in past review the portions were small and I completely disagree…I’m going home with three to-go containers ?. We loved our time here and Dustin was great!

Still very good. The new owners have made a lot of changes, but the service and ambience remain very good and menu delicious even if I miss some of the old items.

BE AWARE!!!! We made reservations to celebrate an event. Once we arrived, we were told there is no kids menu, nor pizza for the little ones. After not being able to stay and having to cancel our reservation, we were then charged a 120$ cancelation fee. After making over 6 attempts to speak to management, per the staff's request, we have still not received any follow up.Updating in reference to the response from the owner: I was never told to email anything or contacted at all. The staff constantly stated that someone would call and that never happened. I also tried reaching out through the contact section on the website, with no response.Second: when you Google the restaurant, pizza pops up, so we assumed at a minimum that would be available. When we stated we were leaving due to there not being a kids menu, it was never mentioned that they could accommodate the kids.This response is completely inaccurate and speaks volume to what your purpose of responding was …

Party of 10 with reservations, sitterd promptly, order taken, food was good just not good enough to justify price, service was good but not great, atmosphere was lacking. Light bulb behind table kept going bright to dim, seating was tight for the party. Just wasn't as upscale as expected.

Went in at 6:00pm, saw plenty of tables open, hostess comes out and says that they have no openings until 8:30pm (place closes at 9:00pm) without a reservation. Thats a zero in my book.

The food was awesome! Everything we ordered was great. I had the eggplant which was some of the best I've ever had. The staff was also great. It was a pleasant surprise for a small town place❤️
