   We had been here before and brought another couple to celebrate 3 of our birthdays. The food as always was excellent. We ordered an entree and dessert from the off menu specials. Our server Sadie was outstanding. She was a great help in our food and wine selections. The evening was a fabulous celebration with friends!! We will return and highly recommend Cucina Rustica.

   We have been going here for years and this will most likely be the last time we go. I will start with Bruschetta being burnt and came without any balsamic glaze. Then when we got it replace it came soft and mushy so imagine this due to the chef being mad about the initial kickback. The entries we got were the chicken parmigiana and ravioli Paridiso. Both had no appealing flavor and the ravioli was covered with basically salsa. Our waters werent filled back up till the end and they stopped bringing free bread so dont plan on getting that if you go. Overall, I would try to find another place as we will be doing since this place has really gone down hill.

Servers were helpful and attentive, but not annoying. I would recommend this beautiful place to anyone visiting or new to Sedona. Thank you!

   I have been visiting this restaurant for 18 years. Salads were drenched in dressing. My eggplant parmigiana was made with what appeared as a pasta sauce; not as it has been prepared previously. Steak was over cooked. Tiramisu and service was very good

   Cucina RusticaResponded todayHi Mary. Thank you for your compliments on our service and Tiramisu. We sincerely apologize if you felt like your meal was not ideal. We take great pride in our carefully-prepared dishes and we will certainly look into what may have happened. We hope to have the second chance to impress you someday with the 5-star experience you deserve.

    This is our go to Italian in Sedona. Extremely disappointed that we are paying “fine dining” prices which we are fine paying…..BUT our table was not bused once!!!!! Menus were still there, appetizer plates still there, bread plate still there, calamari plate still there☹️☹️☹️😢 It was not until we were given our bill, that the table was cleared. Unacceptable in a restaurant of this caliber.

    Cucina RusticaResponded 7 days agoArlene, thank you for your visit and feedback. We truly apologize if you felt like our service did not meet your expectations. This is certainly unusual, and we will look into what may have happened. If anything ever happens like this again please let a manager know immediately so we can ensure you are provided with the 5-star experience you deserve. We hope to see you again soon.

    It was our anniversary. We asked for a quiet table so we can relax and enjoy ourselves. They sat us next to a table with two kids who were a little bit obnoxious and the parents weren’t really doing anything about it, it was a little upsetting being we requested a quiet table in advance.We thought that the special was over priced for the halibut, it was good but it wasn’t anything fantastic worth $48 in our opinion. We always fine dine so we give credit when due. The lasagna was very good, a good meat sauce, decent portion, but for $26 didn’t come with anything else. Just a piece of lasagna. The staff was very courteous and friendly! Lots of smiles and greeted us right away upon entry and upon exit was also very friendly in saying goodbye. They did a great job of removing plates and etc. Burrata app was great. Mushrooms were tasty.

    Cucina RusticaResponded todayMarie, happy anniversary! We're honored you chose us for this special occasion. We're happy to know you enjoyed our service and Burrata appetizer. However, please forgive us if you felt like your visit did not quite meet your expectations. We will look into your feedback and pass it along to our team as a coaching opportunity. We hope to have the chance to serve you again sometime soon!

    Pricey and worth every penny. Our first time there so we asked for suggestions from our server. He was spot on. From bread to dessert and coffee everything was as good as you'd expect. We were there before 6, it was noticeably louder when we left at 7:15 or so. So if you're hard of hearing try an earlier dinner.

    If you want a phenomenal eating experience, this is the place. A shared Caesar salad was fresh and the anchovies were a perfect addition. The veal piccata was perfectly cooked and plentiful. The Melanzane Parmigiana with a side of pasta was also perfectly cooked wonderful. Tiramisu for dessert was outstanding. Sadie was our server and she and the staff did a great job with everything.

    Cucina Rustica has excellent food. We rarely eat out but when we go to Sedona, we usually go there for a meal. The food did not disappoint this time; however, we were surprised that the portions were noticeably smaller than previous years. I guess that's what they are doing to try to mitigate large price increases. It was also disappointing to be charged $4 to substitute asparagus (only 4 spears) for rice pilaf (due to medical diet restrictions which we explained to the server). We definitely thought that was way out of line. Since the food was delicious, we overlooked the 2 "surprises" in our overall review.

    Excellent food. Appreciated the manager's offer of a rose for my loss of a family member that day. We moved tables within minutes of arrival, out of the dining room and to the bar, because of obnoxious , LOUD, 4 people seated near us. Spoiled the start of what was hopefully a quiet dining experience. Turned out to be a good move as the bartender was great with service and kindness. We are repeat patrons and this was a surprisingly, one time, not so pleasant start. Glad it turned out to be a pleasant evening when we moved after all.
