Rustico

Good service atmosphere. They don’t push sales or ask you to leave early like other restaurants. The food was just ok. Minestrone soup was pretty unsalted and mushroom soup was too watery . Fillet amazing . They don’t serve boiled carrot and broccoli in Italy though . Cannelloni was small

Rustico is & always will be my favourite Italian restaurant,Compliments to the chef. The young gentleman who has been with you 11 years with glasses on, always gives us the best service.The manager can come across very rude but that young gentleman always apologies on his behalf and makes everything ok. I took my manager for dinner tonight and she really liked him,we might pinch him :)

We ordered the lobster pasta from the daily special menu. The lobster was incredibly fresh, and the portion size was generous, especially for the price. We also tried the Mariana risotto, which was a must-order. It was rich, creamy, and not too heavy. Overall, the prices were reasonable, and the quality of the food made it well worth it. It is also our third time dining here already!

This restaurant was recommended to me. It appears popular with many locals. (I was a tourist.) The menu is good with an additional specials menu. The food was very good and portion sizes were also good. For me, the wine list needs attention. Very limited Italian options at a moderate price did not match the quality of the food. I went here on a Wednesday evening. Whilst quiet, the restaurant was busier than others in the vicinity. I had: Complimentary bread with a red pepper relish 4☆ Mozzarella in Carrozza 5☆ Vitello Verbena 5☆ Chilean Merlot 2☆ Complimentary Limoncello was served warm. (I believe it is best freezer cold.)

Feb 2025 update. Still excellent value for money and great tasting. First time dining here today. We didn't book a table and came here around 2.30pm on a Sunday. Menu is very value for money and I got a little confused with the bill if i'm honest. We got seated straight away, and from here to getting served the service was slow. We could see they were busy and waited patiently. When we caught the attention of the staff twice... They said they'll get someone to take our order. We ordered one set lunch... I did ask for it with the pizza and prawn cocktail combo, a carbonara from the lunch menu, mussels and the over from the specials... The reason being this combo worked out the cheapest... Never the less the end bill was very cheap! Carbonara... Very good! Salami pizza very good, they use a high quality salami which you can definitely taste the difference. Prawn cocktail, again very good. Mussels, cooked nicely. Liver, I'm not sure what I expected... I expected pan fried liver served with veg...I got exactly that... But I had a sauce that came on top which I didnt expect... My fault for not asking in detail... But this is why it's a 4* and not a 5* review. Whilst we had our meal we were checked on a few times. Overall a excellent value for money restaurant. I would come back and I do recommend
