Reviews
Wife and I went out for the evening and decided to try this establishment. We got seated and waited a spell before we even got noticed. In fact, I told my wife that I will wait two more minutes and then I’m leaving. As I’ve said before, a customer comes in they should be addressed, and given the menu and a refreshment within the first minute. The waitress/waiter should make themselves known within the next 3 minutes. That’s how you retain customer satisfaction as well as having the customer return in the future.
SinceIt was Friday, my wife and I ordered their fish fry. It was the worse fish fry dish I, we, ever had. The fish came out in large duplicate manufactured pieces; nothing fresh about it. Fish was warm to the touch, overcooked, and hard to cut with a fork. The so-called tartar sauce was nothing but mayonnaise with a few speckles of pickle relish. To top it off, the Cole slaw was very bitter and it had onions in it … not what I expected. The only thing that was edible was the french fries and I’m trying to lay off the potatoes. Lastly, for what it was worth, the dinner was too pricy for what was received. We both walked away very displeased.
I have to admit the establishment had a pleasant atmosphere and the service ended up being very delightful and pleasant. With all that said, I would not recommend having the fish fry.
I was there for a catered event and found everything to be sub-par and underwhelming. The carpet was not vaccummed and it was dingy, cluttered and unkempt. The food was not good at all. Definitely do not recommend.
We all had a wonderful time in the newly remodeled dining room. Best Italian Wedding Soup, Entrees & took The Paella Dinner Special home to share for later which was outstanding. Alot of hard work & love to get where you are. Thank you for that & very happy to have our regular hot spot open for the holidays in this community.
They are remodeling, so we were put in a bigger party room. It was loud but still decent. We've come here many times, the food is very good. My chicken pot pie special was outstanding! My husband had a chicken beet salad that was fantastic as well. I'm looking forward to seeing their new updated regular dining area. Plenty of parking too. We'll be back for sure.
Here’s a honest review
Save your money, food is overpriced. Over cooked and under seasoned. People in the kitchen obviously have no clue how to cook calamari, let alone how to put together garlic bread.
The garlic bread tasted like cardboard, there wasn’t a lot even hint of garlic. Calamari was overcooked was like biting into stale and dried hubba bubba bubblegum
The bartenders are the only ones that have a hint of knowledge as to where they’re doing.
Other than that the atmosphere was different yet nice. I’ve had better service at a tgifridays
New cooks, new owners. Rolls were hard and cold. Ordered chicken piccata and it came out Luke warm and sauce tasted like pure Lemon and couldn’t eat it. There was an order of spaghetti and meatballs and the meatballs were cooked on the outside but very raw on the inside. Sent it back to show the cook and the cook said that’s how they are supposed to be. Did not take off the bill or accommodate to help fix the issue. Will never go back again. It’s a shame because this used to be our favorite Italian restaurant before it changed.
Friendly, quick service. Gnocchi Toscana were delicious. Good spaghetti and meatballs. Warm garlicky bread! Excellent prices and generous portions.
We were there Saturday evening to enjoy a nice peaceful evening.
While dining, we were interrupted by a woman literally SCREAMING at one of her employees.
She then continued to make derogatory statements about him while we were a few feet away.
We ate our food and right before we left she did it again! Clearly we were appalled.
How anyone would work for her is beyond me.
We wished our server luck and left.
We will NEVER go back!!!
We were at Cucina Rustica for a wedding rehearsal dinner. The food was good but there was little direction from the staff on when food was ready and when the guests could go to the buffet. We would have liked more direction from the staff and more assistance from the restaurant on planning the event.
Sat outside on the patio. Very nice evening. Get there early if no reservations as they have quite a crowd. Food was very good and service was great.
