    This was a family birthday celebration, and the restaurant went out of its way to make it a special one for us. I am very grateful.

    Excellent service. Great food. Maria and Edson were awesome. Met friends for dinner. After dinner we went to the bar for drinks. We had a great time.

    This was a great find as the menu was huge with an amazing variety of tapas. They were delivered in a spaced out way that kept us engaged and yet not waiting or overwhelmed with dishes on the tables. Highly recommend trying a little of everything. You will not be disappointed.

    Rustico continues to be a solid "go to" for a good meal, conversation and attentive service. On this visit I had one of their specials for the day-- Lobster Risotto. It was fantastic!

    As a first-timer, it was a good and pleasant dinner experience. The hot tapas (patatas bravas, grilled octopus, crab cake, etc) were delicious. The waiter was attentive and personable. Thank you.

    Our server never rushed us, but checked in on us as needed. We had delicious paella and savored a long meal. We appreciated that they let us stay for a long time without rushing us out.
