Reviews
"La Rustica Restaurant in Kingston offers an unparalleled culinary experience that is worth savoring. From the moment I entered, the warm and inviting ambiance set the stage for an exceptional dining journey. The staff was attentive and knowledgeable, providing impeccable service throughout. The menu at La Rustica is a testament to their dedication to authentic Italian cuisine. Each dish is crafted with care, showcasing the freshest ingredients and traditional flavors. From the delicate handmade pasta to the perfectly cooked meats, every bite was a burst of culinary bliss. The presentation of each dish was a feast for the eyes, elevating the overall dining experience. However, it must be noted that dining at La Rustica does come at a higher price point. The quality of the ingredients and the culinary expertise reflected in the menu do justify the higher cost. Nevertheless, for those on a tighter budget, it may be a splurge reserved for special occasions or when looking to indulge in an extraordinary dining experience. Despite the higher prices, the exceptional quality of the food, the attentive service, and the inviting atmosphere make La Rustica Restaurant a five-star destination. If you're willing to invest in an unforgettable dining experience and appreciate the finer aspects of Italian cuisine, La Rustica is the place to be."
"Dined here on a very busy Saturday night, however service was still friendly and timely. Portion sizes were generous and very tasty. Highly recommend the seafood risotto and tiramisu. Our toddler thoroughly enjoyed her kids pasta and gelato."
"Every meal we had was absolutely delicious and the portion sizes are very generous. I had the chicken parmigiana with eggplant. Two nice serves of schnitzel and the mashed potato was to die for. Highly recommend, partner loved his puttanesca. My only complaint is that it was very noisy, but it was a busy night so very understandable. Very good for large groups."
"I like this restaurant because it is consistently good. The menu is consistent. I have several favourites here that I've enjoyed for years, but hey also have terrific specials. Their service is top-notch, and they have a good wine selection. The decor could do with a little updating. The banquette seating directly inside the front door could do with reupholstering, as could some of the other seats and decor in the restaurant, but - that aside - this is a genuinely good Canberra restaurant."
"Spent the evening at a work event, walked out stuffed like a turkey. Great flavours with a great variety of foods and was very satisfied with all dishes presented. I found the seating a little tight and the facilities were not very clean. The service was great and vert plesent, on the ball fully commited to great service. I would love to eat here again and hope i can, great place, great service, a overall great resturant."
