Went for a meal here and had a good time. The food choices were wide and varied. Food itself was good. Service was ok. Just had a couple of issues, one being that we got a portion of chips that we didn't order and the waitress said we could have them anyway but we were still charged for them. The fish platter wasn't the best I've had but was ok. The other meals were very tasty though. It was, admittedly very busy, not one table empty.

You can't go wrong with 3 courses for £19.95 where you can get steak as a main! The value for money at rustico always shocks me. The portions are massive, and the food is always delicious 😋 Pictured are their ribeye steak and crab ravioli (from the specials menu), as well as their creamy mushrooms starter and tiramisu dessert 😍 All of the food was amazing, and I definitely left with a full belly 🤣 I'd definitely recommend this restaurant for good authentic Italian food with a rustic feel and a lovely atmosphere. It's a great place for a meet-up with friends, a family vibe, or even a date night! I honestly can't rave enough about this place...

They really look after you here. Very nice complimentary bread and dip while you read the menu, and prices are very competitive. A family could spend half as much compared to going to somewhere like Pizza Express. One point I did think was strange, though: the two course Sunday lunch set menu was £16.95 which is very reasonable, but the main courses only cost around £8. So it was cheaper to get two mains than a starter and a main course.

We came here for a family meal on a Sunday lunchtime and really enjoyed the experience. The staff are friendly and welcoming and accommodating to families. The restaurant decor has a charming rustic appeal. We ordered pizzas, and spaghetti with meatballs. The food was delicious, and generous portions and very good value for money. We will definitely go again! Thank you 🙏😊

On Friday night, we actually tried to go to Fino up the road, but they were fully booked up, and they recommended us to come here. So we walked down and gave it a go. On arrival, they had no tables available, but they gave us their word they'd get a table within 5 minutes, and true it was. It was extremely busy. The service was surprisingly quick. I ordered the Mozzarella in Carrozza and the Calzone. (See Pictures) Prior to the food arriving, we were again pleasantly surprised, given complimentary bread, butter, and a tomato based dip that set the mood nicely. The food itself was a decent portion, reasonably priced and tasty! I didn't give it 5 stars because I've had better Calzone's, but it was still decent, and for what you get, you can't go wrong. You could tell this restaurant gets its regular attenders and for a reputation to have that loyal customer base it shows the service and commitment the staff give to make it a great experience 👏 I would recommend giving this place a go, and on the bonus side, it won't burn a hole in your pocket.
