Eaten here multiple times. Never had a bad dining experience. Beer selection will please even the stingiest snob.
Menu is still very good though the decor/seating is worn. Beer taps are still what brings us to this restaurant.
The food can be a hit or miss we had amazing pizza, but the pesto roll(?) was not good. Servers were nice, and I liked the vibe
Rustico shouldn't refer to the upholstery (which was torn). The waitstaff seemed rather disinterested in their jobs and weren't very attentive. The food was fine. (I had a burger which was good, but know nothing of the other offerings)
You might need a flowchart to figure out their brunch drink specials but the food is great. Recommend the fried chicken and pancakes. yes pancakes, not waffles.. would've given 5 stars for waffles.
Great food Great beer collection. Had vegan tofu scramble, which was excellent. Server was very knowledgeable about the beer selection and provided tons of information.
They only serve craft beer here which is fine, unless you wanted a miller lite. The pizza was decent. I was literally the only person sitting at the bar, however, and was never given silverware or napkins or asked how the food was or anything which i found odd. It's a little pricey too. 17 bux for a personal pizza. Anyway, I would be willing to go back and give it another try.
Decently good pizza, but I was really looking forward to their chickpea crust and I didn't like it that much in the end. Not crispy enough for me. Though to be fair, others say they love it! The decor is nice, good date spot for indoor or outdoor dining.
I really enjoyed this restaurant. I have visited 3 times and everyone I brought with me, enjoyed as well. Good food, nice atmosphere, friendly staff. The downstairs seating makes it for a romantic dinner. If beer is your thing, you will enjoy it even more. Parking is challenging though so plan ahead.
Stopped by on a Friday night for a quick bite to eat and was pleasantly surprised by an *excellent* vertical tasting of Schlafly's Bourbon Barrel Aged Imperial Stouts from 2006-2012. The bartenders greeted guests quickly and attentively took drink and food orders. I particularly enjoyed the 2010 Stout, but the turkey burger and fries I ordered didn't sit well with me. I'd return, but I wouldn't order the same thing.
When I lived in Ballston this was my go to bar. I have had more happy hours there than I can remember. The beer selection is vast and rotated regularly. The food is delicious and also rotated regularly. The only complaint I ever had is that they used to have raw beef sliders on the menu. I used to go here just for them and was disappointed when it was removed from the menu. If you get a chance, come here on New Years Eve for their steaks.
Came here on Mother's Day for dinner and it was surprisingly quiet! Clean, modern decor with a small-brew beer selection and plenty on the menu to choose from + average pricing. I had the steak & potatoes and for the price, they were good!
The food is decent. Better than bar food but by no means upscale. The service is average; has been hit or miss the dozen times we've been there. Great beer selection.
So let me start by saying this is NOT a quiet restaurant! It is always busy which adds to the atmosphere but can also make it difficult to hear others in your group. However, the food is worth it! There are plenty of options on the menu and you will likely want to try everything. When I eat here - my eyes are often bigger than my stomach. Definitely try some appetizers but don't fill up as you will want to save room for your entree and dessert (the best part of the meal). Do not skip dessert! Great place for a large group if you can get in!
