Giuseppe's Cucina Rustica

"Wonderful dinner with family. Food was exceptionally good. I highly recommend the clam chowder. The gnochi was delicious as well. Will return."

"This is first dinner restaurant for our family road trip. It was Saturday night. overall, food is good. the only downside is the wait is so tiring. because everyone have to wait outside and is cold in winter. We wait about an hour... finally have sit but was outside restaurant."

"Excellent food! Superb service! Exquisite wine select! I can go on and on and on. What a gem of a place in the middle of San Luis Obispo. The atmosphere was festive and our visit was in the middle of the week at 2 pm. To me, that's a good sign when you can walk in on a Wednesday, and it feels like the weekend. Highly recommend you stop in during your next visit to SLO."

"We had our dogs with us, the restaurant offers a back patio for them to be included, the entrance is through the alley next to the restaurant. They had a waiting time of 20 min when we arrived. The restaurant is gorgeous, clean and organized, they have a variety in their menu and they also offer over the counter desserts and to-go food. My food was delicious, I had a Giuseppe instalata with grilled chicken breast. I want to go back everyday for their meals. The calamari shrimp appetizer needs a little bit of improvement but I was too focused on my plate I didn’t affect my experience. Service was amazing, very patient and thorough. I was so focus in enjoying the place and everything surrounding me that only remembered to take pics of the food, missed the chicken grilled thou. I recommend trying this place at least once and make up your mind if it’s worth trying it again. I for one must come back for their dinner menu, I had their lunch menu. And I obviously have to try their pizza. Once I visit the restaurant again I’ll update the post."

"One of the best experiences to be had in SLO. I waited 2 hours to be seated for dinner on a Friday night but it was well worth it. The patio seating in the back is truly a magical place. Our server was wonderful, so jovial and took great care of us. The food was a little bit on the saltier side but that may be just me preferring things more on the bland side. They make their bread, pasta, sauce, desserts all in house and I could tell. The pasta was so fresh and chewy and the bread before the meal was quite tasty. I would recommend the octopus appetizer from the things that we ordered. They also have a great local wine selection so make sure to order a bottle for the table. Overall a wonderful dining experience, highly recommend a visit when in SLO."
