This was a great place to celebrate Mother's Day! The service was fantastic and the food was delicious other than the beignets. We found them to be not cooked properly. Other than this, it was a great time.

Rustico is part of the Neighborhood Restaurant Group, and it shows: excellent quality, value and service. A relatively small menu but creative - if they have the watermelon salad on the menu, order it!

This was my first time eating Ethipoian food, and it was definitely a great experience. We had a party of 6 and ate various things on the menu with the sampler entrees. We definitely have favorites now. Everything was delicious. The service was excellent! I appreciated how the server explained everything to us - it really enhanced the experience. Highly recommend.
