Amazing food and service. Everything we had was delicious. The tiramisu is the best I've ever tasted and the chocolate cake was incredible. Portions are not large but very filling. Will definitely come back.
How can you not love this place? The secret gem of all of seattle. The food, the drinks, the staff, the owner. Everything is spectacular down to the small details.
La Rustica is an amazing West Seattle staple. I've never had a bad meal here. The place is small and almost always full, so get here early or plan to potentially wait a bit. It is across the street from the water, so at least you have a nice view if you do have to wait.
Great selection of wine and an awesome pasta menu. They have gluten free pasta, if needed. The portions are big so come hungry.
The rigatoni con ricotta was amazing and I love their tiramisu.
It’s been a long time since we’ve eaten here and really I don’t know why it’s been so long. The food and service is absolutely incredible! It’s a small restaurant that has added outdoor seating to probably double its seating capacity. We chose to sit outdoors and while it wasn’t windy or raining, it was surprisingly warm under the heater. If you’re celebrating or looking for an intimate and romantic dinner, this is your spot. We definitely won’t wait as long to be back!
The food, service, and whole experience was excellent! Would highly recommend and already looking forward to coming back.
Celebrated my birthday here and had a wonderful dinner with family. Between the four of us we had beef tenderloin with Gorgonzola sauce, wild boar, polo parmesan and mostaccioli with sausage. And of course a bottle of wine! Great food friendly atmosphere highly recommend!
We've been going here for more than 25 years. We had our wedding dinner here in 2000. Although the ownership has changed, much remains exactly the same. Some of the changes are quite nice, in fact. They've done an excellent job of staying true to the original recipes. Staff is top notch as always.

I’ve been visiting this restaurant tucked away in West Seattle occasionally over the past few years and they consistently deliver great food and service!
I love this restaurant’s old-Italian vibe with the frayed walls, cozy seating and warm lights. This place is great for an evening when you want to catch up with close friends. It’s also a great place to go for dinner dates!
They have a lot of delicious wine offerings! I absolutely love their pasta. They’ve a few vegetarian options on the menu and are also nice about skipping meat/seafood in dishes where they can accommodate it. A special mention about the Gnocchi allo Zafferano - Gnocchi in a saffron sauce. It is amazing! I was blown away by the flavours of the sauce! Delicate yet delivers the unique flavour of saffron in each bite! And the gnochhi were so perfect! Not overcooked. Didn’t stick to my teeth. Had a good bite to it! 😋😋
The complimentary bread is delicious too. I usually have to make an effort to stop eating the bread so that I can eat my dinner!
I’d recommend this place wholeheartedly!
Staff were kind, food was about a 6/10, setting was cute and just across the road from the water, mostaccioli was good and al denté and best among our dishes, Caesar was good but nothing special. Affogato was gluttonous and just too big and too much, not an authentic Italian spot, staff checked in a lot which is nice but for us we like to be left in peace more often.
Great atmosphere for dates, the entrees were delicious and service were friendly. Definitely expect a long wait if you are a party of more than 2 people. I had the squid ink pasta with prawns, clams and mussels, along with the unlimited bread, I was stuffed. I've definitely had better pasta, but this is a decent place you must try if you're looking for a romantic night out.
The wild boar was tender and delish. The carbonara was too light on the cream but plenty of bacon and onions.
Service was very good .Almost December on the patio and I was almost cold , dress warmer for even under the heaters.
My favorite west Seattle spot.
It feels like home here. Small, cozy with hearty portions of food. Seafood risotto and boar are my 2 favorite dishes.
Onside sitting in summer is lovely! Nothing can beat this sunset here accompanied by some good wine.
All around excellent. Food was magnificent as was the chianti we had with it.
Expect a fairly long wait after getting on the list (we were there at Friday peak time) and make sure to let the host know that the whole party is there as they won’t move you up in line until all are present.
