Guest Reviews
- EMILY (10/5): - Had a great stay! Check in was down the road at their restaurant but easy. Room was basic and met our needs. Convenient and scenic setting.
- Vanessa (10/5): Recommended - We enjoyed our one night, easy to find, comfortable and clean. Very pretty. Easy drive to park entrance. We enjoyed our dinner at the associated restaurant. Very friendly staff.
- Emma (10/5): - Great!
- Kyra (4/5): - Lovely & clean house but we were treated horribly by the owner. Due to his rude attitude & behaviour, the stay felt uncomfortable from the first day of arrival. When booking we also payed extra for the Mountain View house but there was no Mountain View.
- Michelle (10/5): - Amazing service from the owner. Property is extremely clean, has everything you need. Short walk to the restaurant which has really nice food and lovely staff.
- STEVEN (10/5): - Very convenient and well appointed room. Located about 15kms from park entrance.
- Jose (10/5): - Exceptional
- Bethan (8/5): - Lovely spot
- Laura (10/5): - It was so lovely. Highly recommend!!
- Stephanie (10/5): Beautiful location - Beautiful location. Animals all around were so friendly.
- Sanja (10/5): - Absolutely awesome! Oasis not to be missed. Definitely going back.
- Raizelle (10/5): - Amazing property and staff.
- Tammy (8/5): - Very dated but clean and in a beautiful area.
- Nicola (10/5): - Check-in at Bistro, complimentary drink of our choice on arrival. Owner took us to the house which is situated in parkland a few minutes drive away. The room was very clean and tidy, had all amenities. We walked to the Bistro to eat - generous portions & delicious food. Richard was our server, he was very welcoming, attentive & spoke excellent English always happy to help with recommendations from the menu. We had some laundry done while we were there, very quick turn around at a very reasonable price - with a smile too. You need a car to stay & see the beautiful Plitvice Lakes. Everyone was very friendly and nothing was too much trouble - would definitely recommend.
- Mariana (10/5): Fairy tale hotel - This place is like a fairy tale, we absolutely loved Rústico! It’s so green, the little cabins and rooms are perfect for one or two nights to visit the park.
The lady who welcome us was so sweet and nice.
Also, the people at the restaurant were very nice and the food was incredible!
Thank you for such a wonderful experience
- Jeanette (10/5): - I felt like a welcomed guest at a friends house. Super welcoming and lovely location 15 minutes from Plitvice National Park.
- Brittony (10/5): Very friendly and easy to work with host - Everything was amazing and a wonderful location
- deb (10/5): - Very friendly comfortable guest house
- dan (10/5): House Rustico - Place was clean, friendly and great value.
They even did my friend’s laundry for no charge.
The associated restaurant was very good for dinner and not bad for breakfast.
- Wendy (10/5): - Great place to stay when visiting the lakes. Staff is friendly and the restaurant that is owned by the owner of the accommodations was very good.
- JIN (10/5): Good choice if you want to go to Plitvice park - Nice settings with right price
- Andrew (10/5): - Perfect stop on our way to Plitvice Lakes National Park, which was roughly a 15 minute drive. Room was clean, staff were helpful, and the nearby restaurant where we checked in and out had great food. Highly recommended.
- Csanad (10/5): Clean, comfortable, great location - We really enjoyed our stay. The property is in a quiet street, but only a few minutes’ drive from the national park entrances. Rooms are simple, but comfortable, spacious and well equipped. Beds and pillows were very comfortable, better than many accommodations I’ve stayed in. The lodging is under the same ownership as a nearby restaurant, where we had tasty breakfast and dinner, and friendly service.
- Grant (10/5): - Loved everything about this place.
- Grant (10/5): - Tremendous place. Booked a second night within 5 minutes of getting here. The vibe is really good, it’s clean, and the owner’s restaurant is absolutely delicious.
- Miguel (10/5): Fantastic family friendly home! - A fabulous small house with everything you could want and more than you would expect. Family owned & operated, and they were all very kind, informative, and friendly. Check in & out was at a nearby Bistro (amazing food and service) was quick and simple. They have multiple tables and chairs to hand out at outside the home, and relaxing hammocks. 10/10 would recommend and would return!
- Jeffrey (10/5): - Really cute location and nice people. The check in is at the restaurant where you are greeted with a welcome drink (of your choice). The room was quite nice. The bed was 2 twins made together, but this seems to be the standard throughout Croatia and Italy? Would recommend if you need accommodations near the Park (10 minute drive).
- Martyn (10/5): Wonderful Hotel, Great Location - We had a fantastic stay at House Rustico! We were welcomed at the nearby Restaurant Vila Velebita with a complementary drink. Everyone was really friendly and the check in was really straightforward. The property is very close by and is in a relaxed, quiet location with plenty of parking and a nice place to sit outdoors. The room was super comfortable, very clean and we felt very relaxed there. The check out was very simple and was also at the restaurant where we had an excellent breakfast before our day at the Plitvice Lakes National Park. I highly recommend staying here!
- Jessica (10/5): - Amazing service. The room was very clean, new and comfortable. There is a restaurant nearby (owned by the same person) and the food there is great — went there both nights. Plitvice lakes is nearby by car. We didn’t have a car, but the hotel owner drove us there for a reasonable fee! He will also drive you to the nearest bus station for free. Thank you for everything Dejan!
- Diane (10/5): - Great cabin!
- Sobia (10/5): - Comfortable and well equipped .very friendly and courteous hosts .great for a few nights stop at plitvice lakes .check in process was easy and even offered a complimentary welcome drink .
Highly recommended!!
- Patricia (10/5): Absolutely wonderful!! - Super clean and quiet. Bed was comfortable, room spacious and A/C worked perfectly when needed, otherwise the windows were open for fresh air. Outside there is a sitting area with chairs, hammocks, shaded by tall trees, perfect for working on a laptop or reading — or just listening and enjoying outside. There are areas to walk your dog off property as well. The housekeeping staff were amazing — so nice, friendly and they keep the place impeccable. The owner’s mother was a total sweetheart! For food, their restaurant is just quick walk away and has a huge menu, and has options for non-meat eaters, both vegan and vegetarian (grilled veggies —mushrooms…..wow!). Don’t feel like walking? They have bikes you can ride. The National Park is a short drive away (suggest you make reservations). Our stay at House Rustico was the best stay of our whole time in Croatia.
- Kelly (10/5): - This property was perfect! Amazing hospitality! Delicious food at the bistro with a welcome drink. The property had thought of every detail - cookies and a candy basket, a kitchen with full dishware, a patio with a dog house and clothesline, a washing machine, showers in each of the three bathrooms, ample sleeping space and so much more! The owners/managers were readily available to help with any needs and were so friendly. I highly recommended this place! Wish we had more time to spend here. Also, easy driving distance to the National Park.
- sang chul (10/5): - It was great to stay the house and having dinner, for example, BBQ, at the restaurant owned by the owner.
- Anna-Marie (10/5): - We loved how peaceful it was. The rooms were wonderful but whatvwe loved most was the outside common space. Reading on the hammocks was definitely a favorite of ours. The host amd staff were wonderful as well and very noce. Thank you for a wonderful stay!!!
- Monika (10/5): - The property was super cute & clean with common outdoor spaces with hammocks and tables to sit, relax and have wine & play cards etc… The owners are super nice & left home made cookies for us. They own a restaurant near by & the food is delicious. It’s a short drive to Plitvice Lakes NP so great location if you want to visit the park.
- Ashley (10/5): - The area was stunning, staff nice even with limited english.
Slight pressure on eating at their restaurant. Toilet seat broken.
- EFRAIM (8/5): Good location - Big room, clean, good location
- Jessaka (10/5): - House Rustico is a beautiful property. We absolutely loved our stay there. We were greeted warmly and treated like family throughout our stay. We borrowed their bikes and enjoyed riding through the gorgeous villages nearby. The accommodations were clean and well kept. It is a wonderful spot for families. We were sad to leave. Don’t forget to try the mushroom soup at Vila Velebita!
- Kay (8/5): - Lovely rustic house close to Plitvice! Hosts were very gracious, even had a fire going in the fireplace to greet us! The restaurant owned by the host is just a short walk or drive away and is excellent food and an excellent value. We recommend House Rustico!
- Simon (10/5): Fantastic place to stay when visiting the lakes - My wife and I were really impressed with House Rustico. The room and building was spotlessly clean and the room was very pleasant and comfortable. We had everything we needed in the room and there was some nice thoughtful touches like fresh fruit and complimentary sweets. Nice bathroom and shower and very comfortable bed.
We met the owner at the Vila Velebita, which is his restaurant just around the corner from the accommodation. For reference the restaurant is on the main road, as you come from the north (having past Plitvice Lakes), it is on the right hand side just before the sharp turning you take to get to House Rustico.
You stop at the restaurant to check in and you are given a complimentary drink, which includes anything from the drinks menu including alcoholic drinks. After enjoying our drink, we were given the keys and head around the corner (2 minute drive) to the room. At the room we are met by the owners mum who is very friendly. She showed us the room and put the heating on for us (slightly unseasonal weather for the time of year - mid May). As we were only there for one night we didn’t get a lot of time at the property but they had free bicycles for guest use and a nice outdoor area for sitting.
Finally we went back to Vila Velebita for dinner and both the food and the staff were superb. We thoroughly enjoyed the meal I would highly recommend eating here during your stay.
Just to note, the drive to Plitvice lakes is approx. 20 mins.
- Lina (10/5): - Loved this stay, such wonderful staff and great location!!
- marialisa (10/5): - The property was nearby the highway about 15 minutes from the park entrance. The related restaurant was excellent for dinner and breakfast. The room was simple but spacious and clean and had everything we needed! Great choice and great price.
- Carmen (8/5): Good budget hotel - Basic hotel nothing fancy just needed a roof over our head after hiking. Stayed one night. Twin beds a bit firm. We ate ate the owners restaurant and it was fantastic!
- Julia (10/5): Wonderful Visit! - Such a fun, cheery room. The host was so friendly and accommodating. I felt right at home.
- Kelly (10/5): - The property was just what we were looking for. Short drive to the Park with a nice place to stay at.
The owner and his family were great!!
- Verified traveler (10/5): Clean and spacious - Both room and bathroom (with shower) were clean and spacious .
- Lauren (10/5): - We had a wonderful stay at House Rústico. The host and his family were so kind and welcoming. We checked in at the restaurant and received a free welcome drink. We also had access to bikes and hammocks in the yard. The home was very nice and comfortable for our party of 6. The host even corrected an error in the pricing that had overcharged us on the website (despite us not knowing that we had been overcharged). Overall, I would recommend this location to anyone traveling to/from Plitvice lakes.
- Marisol (10/5): - We loved this cottage! Close to Lake Plitcice National Park, warm welcome, great service. Nothing could be better!
- Thomas (10/5): - Our US-based family of 4 (including one 17 and one 12 y.o.) stayed at House Rustico in early July 2022 while visiting Plitvice National Park. The cabin is quite charming, with good commons/sitting spaces, kitchen, bathrooms, and bedrooms. The washing machine was a life-saver on a multi-week European trip. The cabin is conveniently located near Plitvice NP, and the nearby restaurant also owned by the cabin owners is excellent. There are a few cabins on the property, but we felt very private. Would highly recommend, and wish we could have stayed longer!
- Paul (8/5): Perfect for lake. Visit - Very friendly,nothing too much trouble.
Quiet, comfortable, local accommodation.
- George (6/5): - The property was very clean, had 3 bathrooms and a cozy fireplace which was going when we arrived! Found the decor and lighting a bit dull and depressing though. But good value for the price.
- Andrei (10/5): Супер - Очень гостеприимный и доброжелательный хозяин. Было очень поздно, после чек-ина в его ресторане, сопровадил нас до апартаментов! Советую очень это место!
- Mehmet Emre (8/5): A bit outdated but excellent location - The checkin was complicated. We followed the address on google maps but the checkin was supposed to be done at the restaurant.
The AC did not work and the heater was off therefore at night we felt a bit cold.
But it is near Plitvice lakes so for us it was good enough.
- Matthew (10/5): Perfect House! Stay Here! - Such a lovely quiet, clean large house and welcoming family - it has everything you will ever need. They had a fire waiting for us in the fireplace, greeted us and treated us! They also run the Restaurant up the road, which was amazing as well. Would stay here again in a heartbeat, hopefully longer next time.
- Juan Pablo (10/5): - Friendly people. Very clean. The room was very nice and big.
- Arthur (10/5): Simply Perfect! - This place is a gem, and the restaurant you check-in at is too. The food (spitfire roasted meat!), staff, location and mountain charm is a knock out. LOVED IT!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - I truly enjoyed staying at this hotel. They have a friendly staff, with clean rooms and a comfortable bed which was nice after a long day of hiking and exploring the area. The restaurant nearby (Vila Velebita) was amazing and convenient, we ate there for 4 meals in 2 days. I would stay here again without hesitation.
- katherine (10/5): Great place! - Great place. We would stay there again. Charming, comfortable, spacious.
- Brian (10/5): Beautiful cabin - Nice owner we got free drinks at the restaurant. The cabin is clean and big!!
- Weronika (10/5): Very grateful to have discovered it! - The place is super cosy, modern and clean. Perfect if you're looking for accommodation around the lake area. With Google maps we had no issues finding the place, and there is a restaurant/bar very close to it. where you check out and leave the keys but also can get a wonderful breakfast in the morning at the same time.
The staff is very kind and helpful. We are grateful to have found it and will definitely be coming back as we drive by car to Croatia again in the future. Very much recommended!
- Lenka (10/5): - We loved it from the moment we’ve arrived. Very stylish, super friendly and everything was spotless. There was a plate of wild strawberries awaiting us in the room! No kitchen available in our room/building but there is a restaurant nearby with fantastic food! (AND prices - lowest we’ve seen in 3 weeks of traveling around Croatia). Very pleasant to relax in a hammock after coming back from Plitvice park.
Also very convenient location - entrance 2 is only about 10 min away by car
- Heather (10/5): - This was a very clean, accommodating and charming place for my family to stay before seeing the waterfalls
- Arthur (8/5): Quiet and enjoyable stay - Quiet place in the country, but within easy access to attractions such as the Plitvice Lakes
- Jennifer (10/5): 10 mins drive to Plitvice carpark 2 - Great location which is very pretty. Nice rustic rooms. Great shower. Staff really helpful Have to register at the a close by restaurant but they give you a drink. Very good meals available. Had a fabulous day at the Lakes but if going go as soon as it opens as the crowds even in October were a nightmare particularly when trying to navigate a path along the boardwalk which coach load after coach load of tourists just take over and expect you to stop or move for them.
- jane (8/5): Basic accommodation - Good Value! - Basic accommodation - staff very friendly!
Good location for the National Parks.
The owners also run the diner near by - delicious pizza and a free drink on the house.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - House Rustico was delightful, a cute cabin which was a very pleasant surprise. Our family (2 adults and 3 teenage girls) stayed for two nights in early October while visiting Plitvice Lakes. We fitted comfortably in the two story cabin, which had two bedrooms and plenty of living space for us. There was also a small kitchen with fridge, microwave, etc plus a toilet and shower both upstairs and down.
The check-in process at Vila Velebita (3 min drive from house) was easy. We were directed to the house where someone was waiting for us with the fire going! The staff we met were excellent. Helpful, friendly and very good English, great for us as we don’t speak Croation!
The cabin had great outdoor facilities too. There was a small veranda with seat, hammocks to loll about in and bikes available to use. We ate at Vila Velebita one night, the food was simple, but good. The portions were large and there were plenty of options at reasonable prices.
We chose House Rustico due to its proximity to Plitvice Lakes. It’s a short 15 minute drive to entrance number 2 of the park which was very easy from the house. The house also had decent wifi throughout which my daughters used extensively!
House Rustico is simple, great value accommodation. It’s not fancy, but it punches above its weight for value and we found it perfectly suitable for our family’s needs. I would definitely recommend it for a few nights if you’re visiting Plitvice.
- Gregory (10/5): Short Stay - House Rustico was well laid out, very neat and tidy, with push bikes and hammocks to use for free. Although the house is out of town, the location suited our 1 nite stay. Thanks House Rustico
- Suchi (10/5): Lovely house for a perfect vacation - The house is very good and it is managed by owner who also owns a restaurant. Each house has about 4 rooms and our was on the 2nd floor. They have hammocks outside the house and it’s in a quiet place, away from the hustle and bustle of the city. You have to do the check in at the restaurant which is about 100m from the house. We would Definitely visit here if we come to Plitvice again. The drive to Plitvice is just about 15 mins. The staff was very warm and friendly and they have welcome drink on the house.
- Rachel (10/5): - We found the room and the House Rustico at large to be an oasis compared to the crowds at the parks. We enjoyed laying in the hammocks when it wasn’t raining and were grateful for a warm, strong shower after getting caught in the rain on a hike. While the food at the associated restaurant is wonderful and the service friendly, it’s important to note that it isn’t on the property and guests will need to drive there.
- Ian (8/5): Very good, close to Plitvice. - The girl who showed us the room was really welcoming and helpful. This was a good start to our stay here. The area outside is really nice and would have loved to stayed another night. Ten minute drive to the Plitvice Lake. Restaurant close by which give you a free drink when you stay here. Overall very good.
- Craig (8/5): Friendly smiles and nice place - The hosts of the property are incredible - very friendly. When you check in (at the restaurant for the hotel), they welcome you with a welcome drink and friendly smiles. When we got to the place, Ana Marie Met us outside and directed us to our room. Only “down” thing is the beds are hard as rocks. Absolutely no “give” in the mattress. Great value for the price.
- Shawn (10/5): - Very nice for price. Nice woman greeted us. Little odd needing to pay at restaurant a little ways down the road, which has the same owner. But had to eat anyway, and enjoyed the restaurant also. Very clean and quiet. About 9 miles from Plitvice Lakes NP, to the south. Great night's sleep.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Great place to stay for the national park, very friendly staff.
- TER (10/5): - Quiet, clean and super helpful staff, definitely stay again
- G (8/5): Perfect location for Plitvice Lakes - Great location - 3 x rural chalet lodges - with clean, spacious rooms. We stayed 2 nights in 2 x rooms (2 different lodges). Catering is off site at nearby Bistro Vila Velebita (2 minute drive, 10 minute walk) just off the main highway to Plitvice. Only drawback - the beds are incredibly HARD!
- Sungjae (10/5): Very nice to the price - Very nice stay at a cottage near the lake. Very good to the price. Impressive welcome drink.
- Lynda (10/5): Great place, great location - Amazing place. Clean, comfortable, beautiful grounds. Nice, homey touches like umbrellas, hammocks, bikes. It was nice to be a few miles away from the craziness of Plitvicka Park on a quiet side road. Good meals at check in restaurant. Their pumpkin seed oil to go with bread was a real treat.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Lovely accommodation, friendly staff and hand for the Plitvice Lakes. Great accessibility if you don't need a roll in shower.
- Recai (10/5): Amazing place near Plitvicke lakes - Vera was amazing host. She made our trip unforgettable. The home is in excellent shape. I recommend everyone.
- Lori (10/5): - Wonderful, clean hotel with exceptional customer service!
- zhiming (10/5): Best served hotel - Free laundry service is great
- Soo Hiang (10/5): Plitvice Lakes serenity - Great base to explore Plitvice Lakes from. Super friendly and helpful staff on site. Quiet location but limited options for restaurants.
- Jakub (10/5): Just amazing - Just amazing
- Sean (10/5): Plitvice Lakes Trips - Honestly this was the best place that we stayed at on our trips throughout Europe. It is a shame that we only stayed there 1 night. There was a fore in the fire place when we arrived. The host added more wood to the fire when we went for dinner at their restaurant. This was well worth the money we spent for a night.
- Deepak (10/5): Excellent short break for the lakes. - We really enjoyed our stay. The location was excellent and close to the lakes. The room was very spacious and comfortable. The hostess was very friendly. The only problem we found is that there are not enough plugs in the room which are convenient to plug-in phones and other devices. Also no breakfast and tea or coffee facilities on site.
- Douglas (10/5): - House Rustic was charming set in a wonderful part of a quiet forest, I would certainly be back here if I ever was in Croatia again. And the quality of the food served at the adjoining restaurant was superb.
- Mary (8/5): - Great value and great location if you’re going to the park.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - I am a very clean and organized person, so when I say that a place is cleaner than my house, it mean absolutely A LOT, and that hotel is. The hotel keeper was fantastic, so sweet and totally into details. In the sense of the hotel itself, even being as it is called a rustic house, that was by far the best hotel I’ve stayed, and I’m fortunate to travel frequently.
- LISA (8/5): Great Stay - House Rustico is a great place to stay while visiting the lakes - very convenient. We were immediately greeted by Anna Marie who is amazing (so friendly and warm) and will help you with anything you need. She even recommended a walking route at Plitvice Lakes, route C, which turned out to be perfect for our family of four.
The unit is rustic - feels like a Swiss chalet, and immaculately clean. Ours had a living room, kitchen, and powder room on the first floor. There were two bedrooms and two bathrooms upstairs. The staircase is extremely small, so we left our luggage downstairs and took what we needed to our rooms as necessary. Would stay there again!
- Adam (8/5): Perfect trip the Plitvice - It is perfect for 2 nights to see the lake. It is a countryside type of lodge, nothing fancy but that’s all you need. The bed was really hard so my back hurt for a while. Very quiet and relaxing stay. The staff did laundry service for free of charge. The restaurant is nearby where you check in and check out. You need a car to stay there and it is 20 mins drive to the lake.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Lovely place & friendly people! Check in at the restaurant was easy and we were given a welcome drink while we waited.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - A lovely property in beautiful scenery .The staff are so friendly and cant do enough for you.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Excellent and great for the lakes - A lovely welcome and very nice room and accommodation- great location for the Plitvice Lakes - unfortunately we arrived late evening and left by 7am the next day for the Plitvice Lakes ( 15 minutes drive away) . It’s linked to a pretty restaurant 10 minutes walk away - we were too late for dinner and left before breakfast but had a nice lunch there after our walk at the lakes. Excellent value and would have loved to stay longer
- Kevin (10/5): Great visit to the National Park. - We wanted to visit the Plitvice Lakes National Park. House Rustico was a short drive away. The rooms are spacious with private bathrooms Air Conditioning, Fridge free WiFi etc, There is a host on site to answer any questions you might have. The property is in a rural setting with large garden. There are sun loungers and bicycles available free of charge. The building is owned by a local family who also own the restaurant a 15 minute walk away. The restaurant and the House are great value for money. I would stay again if in the area.
- Randa (10/5): Great place to stay at! - Amazing place with amazing service. Whether you book it for a getaway or as a layover on your way to plitvicka lakes national park, it’s the place where you need to be. Super clean, super comfortable, amazing views with a little garden where you can just sit and relax on benches, on a swing or on your hammock reading a book. Anne Marie wasn’t lying when she said that she is always there if we ever need anything! She is very decent, helpful and always smiling.
- Vivek (10/5): Excellent Apartmemt.. - Excellent property...5* no doubt..Cozy and comfortable...two floor house with bedrooms (attached bathrooms)in the top floor..kitchen and living room on the ground floor...kitchen is fully equipped with all basic amenities provided...
Property also offers washer and dryer for laundry,staff goes the extra mile to press the clothes.
Barbecue/outside sitting area,hammocks are available..cycle are available for all age groups.all the above is included as part of package..
Neighbourhood is very scenic but slightly far from lake entrance ...easily accessible by car..lake entrance 2 is closer...super market is available at 3 km..Apartment is having a restaurant and it is nearby(1km from the property and it is in the main road from the lake)

- Debbie (10/5): Charming stay - Staff is wonderful and restaurant where u check in is great. Bed is super comfy and show has great pressure. We have been traveling and needed our laundry done and they were so kind to do it for us. We can back from the park to have folded laundry in our room. Will definitely recommend and come back when we are in Plitvice.
- Neil (10/5): Comfortable Stay Near Plitvice Lakes - We stayed at House Rustico for 2 days during our visit to Plitvice Lakes. Because the property is a bit rural, and hard to pin-point using GPS, the check-in was performed at the family's restaurant on the main road through the village. The welcome was warm, both at the restaurant and at the property, when we finally arrived. The rooms are located within several buildings in a "compound" setting within a "green" area; each building has ample free parking directly alongside. Our "double room" was spacious, clean, and well-maintained; it was equipped with its own very efficient air conditioning system, refrigerator, flat-screen television, and modern bathroom (with excellent water-pressure and hot water). The large bed was comfortable, and the Wi-Fi was strong, and the surroundings were quiet. We ate dinner at the restaurant, and enjoyed every bite. The restaurant menu was varied, and the prices were reasonable. Each House Rustico guest is treated to a "welcome" drink, which is surely a "plus" (my wife could not decide upon "red" or "white" wine, so the waiter brought her 2 samples of EACH... which I "helped" her consume). I HIGHLY RECOMMEND both House Rustico AND the restaurant.
