    Room is nice, service was good. Ravioli with mushrooms was good but too salty. Linguini with clams ($28) was good but stingy with the clams, which of course are what it's about.

    Rustico was a great vibe. I loved the atmosphere. It was a busy night when I went in, so service was a bit slower. The drinks were ok, nothing fantastic. I ordered the lobster ravioli and my friend ordered the short rib gnocchi. They were both delicious. I would definitely go back and try this place again.

    Pleasant environment that is not too noisy. Well prepared food and an extensive menu with many options and very good specials. Great place for families and larger get-togethers due to the large size of the dining room.

    Omg… so this time my husband had the Salmon and stuff ravioli, the flavors were blended so well together and very juicy.. he absolutely loves this dish! I had the Lamb Chops with Fingerling Potatoes and Spinach… I’m in LOVE! I need this again today! We also had the Jimmy Margarita again as well. Once again… Rustico is always the best! Per usual! Our servers are always very nice and the staff overall are great at what they do. 💙 Thank you. ☺️
