Fantastic food, service & drinks! My personal favorites are the Beet Napoleon salad & Eggplant Parmigiano!! Best in town & love the generous portion sizes for a very reasonably price. Their house marinra/red sauce is INCREDIBLE! Thank you Rustica for serving up such great food to us l locals!
The food was great! And our waiter was wonderful.
Amazing home made pasta, however a little skimpy on meats.. I ordered shrimp fettuccine alfrado and only got 5 little shrimp in my giant bowl of food.. proportions need to be addressed.. otherwise amazing..
