After reviewing their website and not seeing any vegan options listed, we called ahead and were pleasantly surprised to learn they have a vegan menu available. The food was delicious, especially the shiraz mushrooms. The only suggestion would be to make the vegan menu more prominently displayed for easier access.

Although I didn't try the food myself, my companions raved about it, especially the delicious smelling mushrooms. Unfortunately, we were unable to determine which wines were vegan, but our server was very kind and promised to investigate for future reference. The restaurant's beachside setting was lovely, and the outdoor seating was comfortable and enjoyable. Rustico is a great option if nearby Faux Sho Vegan Pantry is closed.

There wasn't a single aspect we could find fault with. We both agreed that this was the best meal we've ever had in our lives—it was truly amazing! We opted for the tasting menu after reading numerous positive reviews, and we were completely blown away. The food and service were exceptional; the staff were not only incredibly kind but also extremely attentive. They even surprised us by decorating our dessert plate with a sparkler and the words "Happy Anniversary" after I mentioned our special occasion. Overall, everything was perfect, and if you haven't been, you’re definitely missing out! A huge thank you to the chef and the amazing staff for making our evening so special. I absolutely can't wait to return!

We were seated immediately (no booking) and we were promptly served by the helpful staff who helped explained the menu and dishes to us. Food came much faster than expected especially because it was full house. The food itself was amazing. Pricey, but definitely worth it. So many new and interesting flavours and gorgeous presentation. We ordered our selection of 8 different tapas dishes, and they were served from light and refreshing to heavier dishes. Very well planned out even if we never specifically asked for it. Definitely recommend you try this place at least once!
