I visited Rustico without a table booking last Monday and i was surprised that i had to wait 15 min to get a table on this extremely busy place. After reading the latest reports i had my reservations towards the quality of food and service i was about to receive however, this place is simply amazing.... Staff was very welcoming... more

Was really looking forward to an authentic italian meal but was severly dissapointed. The food was bland and had none of the herb or spices that had been described on the menu. Also we had asked the waitor for specials however he told us the soup special but said there where no others then a few minutes later we saw... more

I accidentaly got the number wrong and ended up 2 chairs short, mortified i mentioned to the Manager and within 5 mins we had an extended table, 2 new places and chairs. I was most impressed (plus it saved me... more

Food's pretty good at this place, although some appetizers tend to be greasy. The rude service is a disappointment. There are far better restaurants very close to this place. Avoid. more

Living just around the corner from this place my partner and I eat here quite a lot, however last nights meal was ruined somewhat by the overly attentive waiting staff. Every two minutes one of the waitresses in our area seemd to walk past our table to check if we had finished or not. This was very off-putting and ruined... more

This was our favourite for years, but it declined over a fairly short period of time. We no longer go after some uber dodgy seafood and a couple of poor attempts at basic dishes. The service is fine and the staff are pleasant, it is just the food. I don't know if there were changes to kitchen staff, but for... more

The menu is not too fancy, just a few good options but I can guarantee you that you will not regret even if you ordered with eyes closed. I remember the last time I have had this satisfaction was the high-end Italian restaurant I worked in Kuala Lumpur. I had a Marinara and when I took the first bite...all the... more

My family had a very enjoyable meal at Rustico, and we would recommend to others and probably return ourselves. The only negative during the entire evening was the fact that the head waiter (with plenty of experience) had great difficulty taking a small criticism (which had been delivered to him gently) regarding one particular dish's portion size. It gave me... more

I was staying in Aberdeen with friends at a nearby hotel. My friend had told me about Rustico so we went there for dinner - wow! We made a reservation and glad we did because it was very busy. Rustico is a Southern Italian / Mediteranean restaurant and the interior style reflects this along with the waiters t-shirts depicting cities... more

Let me justify this review by saying that I never usually write reviews (only one other before this ), but as a lover of good food and the experience, the "theater "of eating out...I feel obligated to add my two cents. I've traveled the world, had room-mates in college that went to CIA (Culinary Institute of America) and went on... more
