Family run and operated, the “Boss,” Mimmo Gambino, opened the doors of Casa Rustia in Smithtown, NY, in 1985. In the past, he had created many fine-dining establishments in New York City. Born and raised in a “small town you’ve never heard of in Palermo, Italy,” as Mimmo Gambino used to say, Mimmo came to New York City to purse the American dream. Focusing on his Sicilan upbringing, he instilled a new culture to the recipes that we still use today.

I haven’t been here in years. It was a great choice! Started with the perfect Martini. Excellent meal! I had the bruschetta and it was fresh and perfectly toasted. I also had the beets salad and it was huge. Fried calamari was cooked to perfection! I had the branzini and it was delicious. My favorite was the mushroom risotto! Only drawback was we didn’t have room for dessert!!!

What an unbelievable meal we had for a friends birthday, everything was delicious. We ordered appetizers, salads, entrees and desserts, everyone raved about how good their meal was. Too many people to give examples of each dish, but we can’t wait to go back!
