    Food was pedestrian; service was sincere but amateurish (dirty dishes not removed, flat wear missing).

    I use to love casa rustica! Hostess was great! The rest of the wait staff seemed off. When we needed another set of silverware, or plates for our appetizers, refills, take out boxes, our check, etc. she came back empty handed each time and would say oh yes and go back and get it the next time she was around.. Drink machine was broken, so only water tea or alcohol was available for purchase. Overheard waiter at a neighboring table say they didn’t have enough silverware clean to set their table. Just a weird experience as if it were a new restaurant trying to work out the kinks. 🫤

    All of our food was cold - we had the fried platter for an app, and it was cold inside (like it had been cooked 20-30 minutes before it hit our table and was left outside). I wasn't able to eat my pasta because the shrimp and scallops were cold. We didn't complain, that's not our nature, but this meal was awful.

    We absolutely love Casa Rustica. The food is great, and the customer service is top notch. We travel to Boone multiple times a year and I can say that this is now one of our top choices to dine at. Do yourself a favor and try it out if you are in Boone!

    Great meal and service as always at Casa Rustica, we love coming here when visiting our daughter at App State. Food was fantastic, always love starting with the caprese stack and then the veal parmesan was excellent as well. Alex did a great job with the service, great drinks, well paced for the meal and very friendly. We'll be back again soon.

    The eggplant wasn't as good as last time we were there, one of our guests had the shrimp and scallops over angel hair pasta and there were shells in his dish. On the other hand the salmon special was excellent.

    Four of us were visiting the area and came across Casa Rustica. It's sweet inside, lodge like. The waiter was amazing! She was very attentive and personable. And our dinners were all delicious. The only disappointment were the appetizers. The brushetta was on hard pieces of bread, as hard as croutons, with a small amount of chopped tomatoes. And the calamari was awful. Small tough pieces, difficult to chew, no flavor, and marinara sauce tasted canned. Would go again but skip the appetizers.
