Best Italian restaurant ever!!!! Been there twice so far. The next day after going is so hard because I just keep dreaming about the food and wish I would go back ASAP. The whole staff is so friendly,attentive and kind. The pasta is beautiful and the braised ribs w mashed potatoes were the best meal ever. Me and bae lovedddd it so much. I truly couldn’t point out anything that lacked or I would have liked differently. Best restaurant ever. Beautiful interior and ambiance. 1000/1000

RustiCucina was a fantastic find. My wife and I came for Happy Hour on March 6 and were genuinely impressed. The food was outstanding, the service was warm and attentive, and the whole experience felt exceptional. Special honorable mention to the female opener who welcomed us so kindly and to the bartender, who made the experience even better with excellent service. Easily one of the best dining experiences we’ve had in San Diego.

We came here for Mother’s Day late brunch. Because I worked until 1pm, so we booked the reservation at 3pm. I glad we didn’t come here at rush hour, it was very quiet, wide space and comfortable, especially we had baby in stroller. They had a Mother’s Day’s menu, it was pretty nice, we ordered the cheese wheel pasta, fried burrata, calamari and Caesar salad, plus lemon cello cake for dessert. Everything is pretty delicious, especially the Burrata, calamari and Caesar salad. The cheese wheel pasta is nice but I hope the truffle flavor can be stronger, and the pasta they used is fettuccine, I think I prefer angel hair or spaghetti better. The dessert is so so, it’s too sweet for me and the taste is kinda too normal. Comparing to the price. They can do a little better. The service is pretty good at the beginning but a little slow at the end because not a lot of customers so there’s only one waitress. She checked on us regularly but we still need to wait a while for water, check and other services.

I was really looking forward to trying this restaurant, but unfortunately our experience was disappointing.

My pasta was served undercooked. To their credit, they did replace the dish when we brought it to their attention, and the second one was much better. However, having to send a dish back right away definitely disrupted the experience.

The carbonara we ordered was also extremely salty — to the point where it was almost inedible. It was disappointing because the flavor profile could have been great if it had been properly balanced.

On top of that, when we received the check, we noticed we had been overcharged, which required another correction before we could leave. By that point, the overall experience just felt frustrating.

I understand that mistakes can happen, but multiple issues in one meal made it hard to fully enjoy the evening. I hope the restaurant can improve consistency in both food quality and billing accuracy.

The food here is amazing— everything tasted fresh, good temperatures, and authentically served!

Definitely try the cheese wheel if you can — I’m not a big cheese person, but this isn’t Kraft cheese . Definitely glad I ordered this.

Portions are huge, so come hungry or plan to take some home. The capsule fits the atmosphere and ties it all together. Service was top notch — everyone was super friendly from when we first opened the door.

Absolutely would come back!

Stopped in after visiting the San Diego Zoo because I was craving pasta. RustiCucina did not disappoint. We had two types of pasta the garlic bread and the Brussels sprouts. All were delicious and the portions were perfect!

Very kind, welcoming and attentive service and a cozy no-frills atmosphere. My food was tasty; by no means the best Italian I’ve had, but got the job done. However the pasta and sauce came out cold :(. It was not busy in the restaurant when that happened, which makes me a bit hesitant to return (purely from an opportunity cost standpoint), but overall the experience was still good.
