Veal Mushroom - great. Shish - Absolutely fantastic. Pesto Pasta - excellent. Servings were well sized, and food arrived HOT.
Really can't recommend these guys highly enough. Contacted and confirmed details and delivery in only 30 minutes!
This was FASTER and BETTER than the hotel's room service. As a regular hotel guest, I am using Menulog more than room service and am yet to be disappointed, something that cannot be said about hotel room service! La Rustica is one of the best so far. (Matt - See my reviews (4) - September, 2012)

Deivery was spot on time...
Serving sizes were large and the food itself was just beautiful, we tried 4 dishes and they were well above average... Stand outs were the vegetarian options which are usually so bland, but the pesto was unlike any other in Australia, just divine! Garlic pizza was really flavoursome... An all round fantastic experience... (corrie - July, 2010)

Thankyou so much to all the staff at La Rustica restaurant Surfers Paradise. We recently held a hens night dinner there. The customer service there was amazing. The meals were delicious and prompt considering it was a party for 18 people. Great value for money. We all enjoyed every minute of our dining experience. The staff went out of there way to ensure we all had an enjoyable and memorable night. Good communication prior to the evening ensured special requests to be fulfilled. Karaoke available later in the night was a great warm up for our night out.
Great food, great staff, great atmosphere!
Highly recommended to any type of get together. Many of us will visit again. (Crystal - March, 2010)
