Only the 2nd time we have been here and this time for lunch. Really enjoyed the food and wine and found the prices really reasonable. Will definitely come back.

Came here with my friend seeing as I have been here before but have never found it overwhelming. After reading past reviews i agree with staff being 'slimey' as a young woman myself I found it pretty uncomfortable As soon as we walked in we were told not asked to sit near the door even though I asked if we...

Great restaurant, room for us and a buggy with no problems. Often Italian restaurants are cramped and dark but this one is roomy, bright and clean. The specials options were great, in our party we had steak, seafood platter, crab and lobster pasta, veal and calzone; everyone really enjoyed it. It was a birthday meal and a fuss was made... More

Rustico is one of my favourite restaurants ever! So when my 30th birthday was approaching, I knew I wanted to go. There were 11 of us altogether, and we all left very very happy! From the complementary olives, tomato bread and new mini calzones are a lovely welcoming touch to the main event. We ordered a wide range of dishes,... More

Called in for lunch with my daughter. Have to say it is great value for money. Fresh bread brought to table on arrival. Both ordered lasagna which was very fresh and tasty. This also came with a side of chips. With a couple of drinks bill came to just under £15. Service efficient and friendly and atmosphere good.

Called in for lunch as our usual restaurant was full. So glad it was........ The food was tasty, well presented and was amazing value for money. Yes it is a bit bland inside but the food more then makes up for this

I took my oldest daughter for a saturday lunch at Rusticos and was really really disappointed. I've heard lots of great things about this place but my meatballs had obviously been frozen and microwaved. The texture was not nice and they had not discernable flavour. To make matters worse, they were on the menu at one price then because the... More

I have been to many restuarants in my life, in many different towns and city's and even different countries but this is by far my favourite. I always go for the same dish, because it is delicious! It is the chicken stroganoff, would recommend it to anyone. The chicken is always cooked perfectly and never dry this dish is delicous.We... More
