    This is our favorite Italian pace whenever we are in the area! Food is always good and plenty of it. Love the atmophere with black tablecloths and sitting in a room with walls made out of logs!

    WE usually love our experience at Casa Rustica. Our drink orders were slow coming. The food was warm not hot. Service was okay. The menu says a choice of soup or salad. Three of us ordered soup and there was an upcharge of $2.00 each.!

    This place has been in business since the 80's. It is a rustic cabin. When we arrived we were the only guests so I wondered why I needed a reservation. After 30 minutes the place was full. The food is excellent and service great. We went on a Thursday and they had a jazz combo. Very nice evening.

    Absolutely love the Chicken Parm, I compare all Chicken Parm at other places to yours! Also, the sweet basil vinegarette is just wonderful!! Pam Smith In addition, I failed to thank you very much for handling our group from the Beech Mountain Club last week when we a big FAIL with the Crestwood Inn. It was most appreciated, and everyone enjoyed their dinner!

    One order was never made and then the dressing was not correct when it finally came. The meal was comp’d and waitress was apologetic. I would go back and the rest of the meals were good and the ambience was quaint.

    We were seated in the bar area and it was fairly quiet . The entree chicken Marsala was really good, the cantaloupe and prosciutto was too. Our server Macy was on point. Only complaint is that the toast points for the brushetta were overdone (hard.)

    We ate at Casa Rustica last year on our trip to the area so we decided to try it again. We weren't disappointed. The food was good, the waiter pleasant and efficient, and the ambiance was nice. I expect next year we will be stopping by again while in the area.

    Nice anniversary dinner. Loved the cannoli we took home. I’m Italian and the chicken saltimbicca was better than mine! Unfortunately my husband got the shrimp scampi and his shrimp was over cooked. The stuffed mushrooms were fabulous! The bread was as well!

    Really like the restaurant. Live music was a bit loud in the small space. Although the music was decent, it was even better when the musician was not singing. An instrumental band/musician may have improved the ambience.
