Held a private party at Cucina Rustica and everything and everyone was outstanding! Beginning with Kelly who made organizing the event easy and stress free, to the chef who made an amazing and most delicious meal, even catering to dietary allergies, to Mike who was everything from bartender to server for the party. Mike went above and beyond making sure everything ran seamlessly! Have held other parties at this restaurant as well as gone here for dinner and have never had a disappointing experience. Thank you!!

Today was the first time we have visited this fine restaurant. Great service by Sabrina, and very fair prices as well. They even have an amazing 3 course pre-fix dinner until 5 o’clock every day. For $17.99 you get a full-sized entree, soup or salad, and dessert. They also have $5 martinis and house wines until 5:00! We started off with the Antipasto which was amazing and included four different types of Italian meats. The homemade chicken escarole soup was almost as good as what my mom and I make. ALL of their pastas are homemade as well, something somewhat unusual from my experiences. My mom ordered the Eggplant Parmesan, which was extremely thin, not very heavily breaded, and among the best eggplant dishes we have ever had out. The sauce was incredible, slightly sweet and no hint of acidity/bitterness. I had the Veal Parmesan, which was almost as good, and was fork tender (it perhaps could have been pounded a little bit more to add to the tenderness factor, however). My girlfriend had the Sole Francais and it was without a doubt one of the best fish dishes she had ever tasted. Amazing flavor, and very fresh sole. They even offer a complimentary after-dinner aperitif. Brian, the chef/owner, even comes around to make sure everything is perfect. We will be back soon!

This week my dad passed away. We were distraught…I called Cucina Rustica and they made the process so simple. The prices were exceptional for what was included! Two entrees, pasta, salad, vegetables, soda, coffee, bread, dessert! The room was private and they had a bartender just for our bereavement dinner. This is the place! They were so warm and welcoming…the food was delicious! As an added bonus, my niece got to meet the famous chef and he was so sweet to her! Love this place. Will chose them for all special occasions moving forward!

Top notch food, atmosphere and service. Try the “Sunday Gravy” – you won’t regret it!

Excellent dinner and service. Went to see the entertainment but stayed for the food! Half price bottles of wine on Wednesdays helped too. Pic of Sunday Gravy entrée does not do it justice. Will definitely be back again! Wish I could remember our server’s name to give him proper credit!

5 stars across the board. Service was superb! The menu is varied enough to accommodate everyone but not so enormous as to make me doubt the freshness. Portions were generous and extremely tasty! Even the coffee after dinner was excellent.

This was a great experience. From the warm greeting upon entering to the extremely pleasant and helpful serving of Micaela. I started with the 10 Oz meatball and the sauce /gravy alone made it worth it. But the meatball was very good also. I then had the chicken parm. It was an unbelievably large piece of meat, pounded and beautifully breaded. And buried in that beautiful sauce. And finally the pasta. It was served al Dente, pretty much unheard of and it was amazing also. Great food and an excellent server in Michaela. Over the top experience.
