I went to this restaurant with my dog, and they set up with a table all by myself on the back patio! I had the veal with truffles or something and it was amazing!! They have some beer, and I was served a Peroni in a wine glass :) It was a nice fancy place, and you can spend some... More

The one positive take from this new Highlands restaurant is the quality of the food. We had the Veal Chops and the Chicken and Sausage plates. All Three components were of high quality. And they should be given the price. What was unfortunate was the sauces they were in. To say average would be a complement. The red sauce in... More

The ambience was wonderful. It was a lovely experience. Not rushed. Dining at its best. Able to hear each other as we sat by the fire & enjoyed getting to know each other. Hope to come back again & again!

Our meals were good but a little inconsistent.. Two of us had the lasagna, which was one of the daily specials. It was excellent and they would do well to have it on the menu every day. Lobster ravioli stuffed full of lobster meat but the tomato sauce acidic and bland. Sword fish was fresh but the fennel sauce seemed... More

We were seated immediately and the service was very good from start to finish. If you are familiar with Highlands, this is not Paoletti's. The food is not as good and the atmosphere is altogether different. Rustico is in a landmark Joe Webb Log Cabin in the woods behind the Hampton Inn. This is not a bad thing by any... More

I remember the original log cabin restaurant for the decor more than the food. This, of course was in same Joe Webb built building but I miss the astonishing Steve Penley works that once adorned its walls. Otherwise, the staff is well trained and food is of high quality. We had formerly been fans of the other Italian restaurant in... More

There were four of us going to try the new restaurant in town. Empty walls, very little decor. But it is all understandable... these guys just got opened. Our service was Baaaad. Server did not even bother to ask how was the food after he served it. Food was good if not counting that veal chops were overcooked but it... More

This charming real log cabin just reopened as northern Italian. Highlands has so many fine restaurants that it is daring to join the competion. This go round is bound to succeed. A genial and lively Romanian waiter made us smile from the start. A decent wine list and tasty dipping oil for the good bread was followed by excellent pasta... More

Rustico has breathed new life into The Log Cabin. We have been four times since they opened in July. We love the charm of The Log Cabin and what the owners have done to make it that way. The walkway is lovely and there is a cozy bar just inside the entry. We've tried most everything on the menu and... More
