Always good food and service. We’ve been repeating for dinner but never for brunch so it was a nice change.

We had a nice romantic dinner. I was VERY happy to see an Albariño as a wine selection. Jessica is an excellent server and everything was timed well. The table was cozy, as requested, so we could enjoy our conversation. Every server - every single person who represented Rusconi’s - was kind, friendly, and attentive. It was a really nice experience and it’s close to our home. I can see why it’s a popular restaurant.

Our food, as usual, was exceptional, nary a morsel left! The depth of flavor and presentation, showcasing the freshness of the ingredients, was foremost. We ordered the pork belly with polenta, roasted mushroom soup, beet salad, burger, halibut with pea risotto, and a side of butternut squash risotto. All made Celiac friendly. Sadly, we didn't have room for the delicious sounding desserts -next visit.

Rusconis is our "go to place" We have never had a bad meal there and often the food is extraordinary. We always take visitors there. This time we took our adult granddaughter and her friend - both from New Jersey. They loved it and made us promise to take them back the next time they visit.
