I really enjoyed this restaurant. If I could remember the names of the dishes I chose I would include it lol. But our server Mandy was so nice and she was patient with us. I didn’t know she was the manager until after our dinner. I definitely recommend this restaurant! 10000/10!!!

We had a delightful evening with delicious food. Veal and lobster dishes. A perfect recommended wine to accompany the meal by our gracious server. Just put yourself in their hands and they will guide you to a perfect evening.

Service was exceptional and the food was great, especially the Ziki salad and Halibut entree. The building is a bit worn down but that did not detract from the ambience inside which is rustic and cozy. The windows have nice wooden blinds to cover the lack of outside views.

Amazing food, service, ambiance, ect… A little hole in the wall, family owned business! We stopped here after my google search for best restaurants in Blue Ridge and this is definitely one of them! We almost didn’t get a table because they were all booked for the day, so we walked out and went next door to the pizza restaurant and when we sat down the owner ran in there right before we ordered and told us they made it work and set up a table for us so we headed right back! The server was awesome and very knowledgeable with everything on the menu, food was fantastic and flavorful. We loved everything that she recommend! The owner kept stopping by to make sure everything was good. Overall we had a great experience and meal. Will be back for sure!

I ordered the shrimp scampi and it lacked flavor. The shrimp was VERY tough too. We made reservations and got there on time and then they made us wait 10 mins while they got a table ready.

My husband thought he had finalized our reservation but must’ve mistakenly not pushed the final acceptance. So when we got there, there was no reservation. I know my husband felt terrible because it was our 38th anniversary. Shannon, the host, made an exception for us. We were so grateful. We had a wonderful dinner and anniversary. The food was delicious. Best eggplant I’ve ever had. Our waitress Bella (perfect name for this Italian restaurant) was awesome. Thank you Cuccina Rustica for making our Anniversary perfect

Their pizza is so flavorful! We got the 3 meat topping and the sausage is wonderful. Service was also on top of things making sure we had plenty of refills of drinks. I would have given in 5 stars had the window blinds and window sil been clean of dirt and bugs.

3/10/23 What a lovely mountain gem of a restaurant! Mandy took very good care of us and made excellent suggestions for some first time visitors at the Cucina Rustica! Excellent food, so fresh and rich in flavors! I can’t wait to come back! The cannelloni special was amazing, the fresh bread and huge salad was incredible, and the lemon tiramisu with blueberry compote was a fabulous way to end the night! 5 star service, 5 star quality! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
