Rustica Lounge Bar & Restaurant offers a great atmosphere with live music and creative artwork on the walls. The service is top-notch, and the food is delicious, especially the steak dish with roasted vegetables and pearl potatoes. The relaxing Jazz music and calming lighting create a perfect setting for a wonderful dinner. The decor and ambiance is perfect for date night or a gathering of friends. The food is excellent, very flavorful and delicious, with options like grilled octopus, tuna, and bolognese. The restaurant also features a prix fixe menu and outstanding service, as well as live music that creates an entertaining evening.
Customers have praised the welcoming service, with the waiter Visar making them feel at home. While some have enjoyed dishes like duck alla rustica and Penne alla Genovese, others have found certain items, such as the overly fatty duck and crunchy calamari, to be less satisfactory. The restaurant's cocktails and appetizers like rice balls have been well-received, but the overall value for the higher-end prices has been a point of discussion. The cozy ambiance and lovely outdoor patio area, when open, add to the dining experience at Rustica.
