   We had a great dinner with friends. We were in the heated bubble. We loved it because it was quiet and we had great conversations with our friends. The service was good. I love this restaurant and have been there many times. It is one of my favorite places in Summerville.

   I was sad the bubbles for outside dining were down but our table inside was perfect. I was nervous that my friends who had never been to La Rustica may not like it as much as I do but no one was disappointed! Everything was perfect from our drinks to our delicious dinners. We had the best dining experience and everyone agreed. They will all be coming back! Thankyou to all the staff that helped make our friends' night out so enjoyable.

   Came here for Valentine’s Day, this was amazing. The food was fantastic, we ordered the pollo parmigiana which was absolutely on point. I had gotten an espresso martini which was also spot on, the ambience was lovely. The service and waiters, waitresses, bartenders, they were all super friendly people and super informative about the restaurant and menu. I would definitely come back

   I’ll preface this review with it was Valentine’s Day. However, I don’t think that should be neglected in this review. We’ve been here before and loved it. This time was like no other time we’ve eaten there. Placed outside in a folding chair; in the past, porch seating was on a normal dining chair not a folding chair. Took 10 minutes to get a waiter and order dinner only since we had plans for drinks and desert after. Almost everything on the special menu was sold out. All substitutions for what was sold out wasn’t something we had eaten before at La Rustica. Honestly should have left at this point, but we gave it a shot. An hour after being seated, we got our food. Food was not up to the standard that we’ve had a La Rustica. Filet was so fatty I’m pretty sure if was a cut from a ribeye. The side of spaghetti was nothing more than store bought noodles which in the past experiences they were not that. Just not impressed with what was advertised as a Valentines special.

   Wonderful Valentine’s Day dinner-from the service to the menu to the overall ambience. Loved the special menu, everything was delicious.

   From the drink special to the bread and then the meal was a wonderful Valentines experience.

   We sat in an outside “bubble” and it was awesome. Unlike inside where it’s noisy, outside was quiet. And besides enjoying the bubble, everything was excellent!

    We made reservations a few weeks ago for Valentines Day. Since making the reservation they came out with a special Valentine’s Day menu that was not posted when I made the reservation so we were unaware. The menu was limited and high priced. There were zero vegetarian dishes to choose from and we brought our daughter. Disappointed that our “treat” dinner was extremely limited.
