Reviews for Rustica Brick Oven Cafe in Garden City South, NY
Really good pizza and soup. Food is reasonably priced and usually good quality. But, the staff have some quirky ideas about... presentation...I ordered a cheese panini and it arrived cold. When I told the waitress that the panini wasn't freshly heated,she told me that they serve their paninis that way. She ultimately agreed to heat my food. But, even she said that otherrestaurants heat their paninis. Huh...I don't know of any restaurant that serves it cold. Just odd. Still, once it came backheated, it was really good. So, I'll still give the restaurant a high rating. Read more
This was absolutely the best gluten free pizza I have ever had. I had the Sicilian crust and it was amazing. Thick and fluffy... and crunchy and chewy. Just like before when I could eat regular crust. Read more
I hope this is no longer the case but the woman who would pick up the phones around 2014 - 2018 was the nastiest most... unprofessional and uncourteous person I've ever had the displeasure of speaking to. The food was great, the ambiance was nice aswell but she turned me off so much from Rustica I haven't been back ever since. I would reconsider dining at Rustica if she's nolonger the greeter/phone staff. You can imagine how rude this woman had been been on multiple occasions for me to remember thisexperience over 4 years later. Read more
Ordered a large House Special pie, a crust that has and can support such a topping choice while providing a great crunch -... delicious! Read more
Same as always... great pizza without the heartburn. Hate choosing from from the menu because everything is fresh!!! Went with... green peppers, onions and pepperoni tonight. Don't know why my wife doesn't classify othe toppings as a different meal!!! Read more
Hands down the BEST gluten free pizza and calzone I have ever had!!! This is coming from someone who?s had Celiac disease for... more than 7 years and who?s tried probably almost everyones gf pizza! Maria the owner is an absolute sweetheart- she?s friendly,incredibly knowledgeable about gluten free, and makes you feel right at home. The service is great, everything is delicious(gluten free and regular menu items too). My family and I eat here all the time, if you haven?t tried it you really need to! Read more
Went to dinner with some friends. Food was good and service was just as good. Nice spot to go to for a casual night out for... dates or a get together. Not over priced at all, we enjoyed our time here and our friends who recommended the place love thisplace. Read more
