Tucked away on Wongaling Beach Road, just round the corner from Woolworths, is Caffe Rustica. Caffe Rustica offers a great range of Italian cuisine, made-to-order pizza and pasta, and delicious gelati and sorbets, also made on site. You are welcome to eat on the restaurant premises which are licensed and have a good range of beers and wines on offer.

Alternatively, you can take advantage of their takeaway service. At Caffe Rustica, the pizza's are prepared and cooked by Woody, who has twenty years experience making delicious pizzas. The pasta is prepared and cooked by Gill, who again, has many years experience in the catering industry. Woody and Gill built the open plan restaurant Caffe Rustica in 2001, having owned other local eateries in the past.

Enjoyed a private party on 12/3. Excellent food and atmosphere. The owner Scott Michael and the manager Eden were attentive and pleasant as the host and hostess. Highly recommend and will visit again when in town.

Lilliy our waitress was great and drinks were good. I was the only one who liked my food. I had skampy over linguini. Unfortunately the experience was ruined as we were asked to give up our table rather rudely because "others" were waiting. Not nice for an experience restaurant. Plenty of other places.

Likely the best restaurant in like placid. I feel like most restaurants in town are just ok. This one is outside main st but well worth the drive! Must go here if you are looking for great food in Lake Placid

We had a large party of 10 on a Saturday night at this establishment. They sat us at the time we had reserved, it was nice table in the back of the restaurant. The server was really good. He was friendly outgoing explained anything we asked and was very attentive all night long. The food was very very good, I had a beautiful steak with blue cheese that just melted in my mouth. So far my favorite restaurant in Lake Placid.

My hot date and I enjoyed the special entrees. She had Halibut and I had Fillet Mignon. Portions were good. I despise huge portions. Soup as first course was delicious - a chicken, bean and sausage soup. All in all very good meal. A little pricey but worth it. Service by Lilly was exceptional. Try it you'll like it!

Excellent food, service and ambience!! I ordered the shrimp scampi risotto and my husband ordered the ravioli carbonara and they were both exquisite! Our server was very friendly and professional from start to finish. Highly recommend this place! Would definitely go back!

Had a great meal with my family at cafe rustica. We were greeted very friendly and warmly. The service was great. The waitress made some recommendations that turned out to be just wonderful. Highly recommend this place. Slightly off the main drag but worth driving to if you are staying in the village of lake placid.

Tucked away you will find this cozy cottage charm of a restaurant. From the moment you walk in, you are enveloped in the warmth of atmosphere and welcoming staff. Every enticing dish ordered came attractively executed and superbly palate pleasing. We had a delightful evening lavished with hospitality that begs for a return visit soon.
