The food was absolutely incredible — fresh, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned. Every bite tasted homemade and high quality. The shawarma was juicy, the sides were delicious, and everything came out fast and hot.

What really made it special though was the manager. So welcoming, attentive, and genuinely kind. You can tell they really care about customers and take pride in the restaurant. Service like that is rare and makes you want to come back again and again.

Amazing people, amazing food — highly recommend!“

“The wife and I went back to the old neighborhood to visit somebody at the hospital driving around we found modern plate. We figure we’d give it a try. There is no doubt in my mind that this place eventually will be a five star restaurant. The food was phenomenal service atmosphere But I will tell you this much. Don’t go there with your good. Looks thinking you’re gonna buy something bring your cash, but it’s well worth it. The wife and I cannot wait to go back to try something else.“

The coffee was good, it came to the table in its own thermal to stay hot. I highly recommend!!“

Highly recommend for families! Big shoutout to the chef and the servers for their amazing service.“

“I thought the food was great. Front desk staff appeared overwhelmed and did not present a welcoming vibe. We had a table of 5 but had to ask for silver wear for 3 more people and water for 2 more. The atmosphere is loud. Lots of children running around. Seemed a bit chaotic. Not sure I'd come here again“

“Enough variety in the menu to keep things interesting. Everything I've ever eaten here has been excellent including some truly amazing soups. The staff is wonderful. What more could anyone want in a restaurant? I love this place!“

“Hooray - Finally reopened to total YUM!“

“I recently visited Ruscello twice within a 3-day time period. I ordered the exact same item, a caesar salad with roasted chicken. On the first visit, I received a small chicken breast with the little gem lettuce exactly as the menu indicated. On the second visit, a received a few small pieces of chicken with romaine lettuce which was disappointing.“

“Went tonight on a whim for dinner and I’ll just say this place was spectacular! Without even knowing anything about this restaurant in advance, and in town from Pittsburgh for a youth hockey tournament, we happened to drive by and decided to stop and eat there. Walking in the atmosphere was fantastic and the service was spectacular. We sat at the bar, had a few cocktails, unbelievable appetizers, terrific meals for dinner followed by the most amazing desserts ever. While we were there, we had an opportunity to meet and chat with the owner for a little while. Always a pleasure to talk to someone that is passionate about what they do and appreciates both their employees and customers. It was a fantastic dining experience and I highly recommend this place. Thank you Ted for your hospitality.“
