I had visited Rustico's original location on Lake Street in Oak Park when it first opened. I was not impressed. My family and I checked out the Oak Park Avenue location last night and I was in for a very pleasant surprise. This is a completely different, wonderful restaurant! All of our dishes were top notch and the service was very attentive. Also, it was completely full of diners. Obviously, my neighbors have been on to a great thing before I was. I'll definitely be back. Thanks for a lovely evening, Rustico!

Our large party was accommodated easily, including late arrivals, changes in orders, and no one rushed our meal. They included a candle on the dessert for the birthday girl and provided space to stack gifts. We all enjoyed our meals that were presented at the same time despite being a mixture of pizzas and entrees. We will be back.
