Very friendly staff on July 3rd overall excellent experience

The food was excellent. We started with the beet salad and shared two Tapas. Both were outstanding. Dessert was the best creme brulee I've had in a long time. Definitely a great dining experience.

Absolute stellar experience. Highly recommend Outstanding

Tapas and cocktails were amazing! My favorites were the goat cheese plate and the brussel sprouts along with the white wine sangria! Yum! Really though, there wasn't a bad bite or sip to be had! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

I rated the noise level higher this time just because we were outside instead of inside. Rustico was great as always- they never disappoint when I go. Scallops were cooked perfectly and the breaded crab cakes were on point. Can’t recommend this spot enough!

My husband loved the chicken paella. The ravioli with crab was okay.

First time there. We had a delicious meal and will be going back.

My husband loves this place for the fresh, strong drinks. It is a tapas place with brick oven pizzas, pastas, and very good Latin America inspired drinks. They also have very good sangria. Their margarita is made with fresh lime juice, as is most, if not all, of their cocktail list. The service is prompt and attentive. It’s not gimmicky at all. You can see the chef/owner hustling in the kitchen, and he will come to say hello when he gets a chance. I actually walked by the location multiple times without trying it because I thought it was going to be one of those mediocre restaurants that try to cater to everyone and no one at the same time. It is quite the opposite. What they have on the menu is what they make consistently good and fresh and that’s what matters. It’s not gimmicky but it’s very good.

The food, the wine, the service, the whole experience was excellent. Rustico is one of our favorite restaurants.

Good service, clean, lots of nice people. We made reservations so as busy as it was on a Saturday evening with nice weather I recommend you make reservations. They were a little slow on service but every staff member was trying. Still go you just have to be patient any place you want to eat at. The food was excellent, sangria was delicious. An above average tapas experience. Given that we have been to Spain. I will definitely go back. Brick oven pizzas were outstanding. If you don't know what tapas are Google it before you go.
