La Rustica Ristorante & Pizzeria in Würzburg

Great, delicious food, superb service, simply a pleasant experience.

Despite having made a reservation by phone, we had no table, and the service was unfriendly. A real shame. Addendum to the owner: We would have liked to review the food. We can only comment on our actual experience. It's especially disappointing on a birthday when the reservation wasn't properly recorded. Please learn to handle criticism.

My favorite pasta in Würzburg! 🍝😋

I was there for lunch today. The food was okay as always, but the white wine spritzer I ordered was a no-go for me. White wine in a glass with two ice cubes in it—not really. That's what carbonated mineral water is supposed to be, but no ice cubes. They're obviously still skimping on water!

Centrally located restaurant. Unfortunately, the food was rather mediocre. The grilled fish was overcooked, and the side dish seemed uninspired. The tiramisu, on the other hand, was okay. The service left much to be desired: We sat in the dark without cutlery or a candle, and even when the food arrived, we had to wait another five minutes for cutlery – by which time the dish was already cold.

Our waiter was attentive, but not obtrusive. He remembered what each had ordered, so that when he brought the food to the table, he placed it correctly. The food was delicious and good (not too large) sized portions. Good prices too.

Had a delicious spaghetti la mare!

We've been to La Rustica three times so far, most recently for lunch. We were very satisfied each time. The food was incredibly delicious and not your average dish. Special requests were also accommodated without any problems. The service was consistently exceptionally friendly and accommodating. Children are also treated very kindly, including promptly serving children's meals in advance with child-friendly cutlery – all without us having to ask. We'll definitely be back soon!

A very nice Italian restaurant not far from the city center. The pizza and pasta were delicious. The value for money is also very good, making it a top recommendation! We'll be back. :)

Great food of very good quality, attentive service and a lovely atmosphere.

At best, average food for a lot of money. Service was friendly, but the manager was a bit pushy. We won't be back.

Extremely delicious pizza and antipasti, with fast and friendly service and reasonable prices; a top experience!

A very nice, cozy restaurant. Very friendly service. The food was very good. I didn't have to wait long for either service or the food. I can only recommend it.

Great restaurant. Very friendly lady who helped us. The food was excellent; value for money 👍🏻 don't expect anything special.

I don't need to go back a second time. One pasta, two drinks instead of pizza, a pinza that also came wrong, and then €63.00. Congratulations if this works out in the long run.

We sat outside under the umbrellas on a 30-degree day, and it was very pleasant. The tables and chairs were a bit close together, but it was still fine. The service was very prompt and very friendly. The food is inventive, and you can find something different on the menu than you're used to. We first had a vegetable starter, followed by pasta in lemon sauce with burrata and a pizza. Everything was excellent. The pizza's size was difficult to judge due to its oblong shape, but it was more than sufficient. The appetizers and the lemon sauce were truly delicious. The price/performance ratio was good. You get value for your money, and you could taste the quality. We would definitely go back.

After two hours, we only received the appetizer platter, which wasn't good. Our inquiries were met with a rude response. Never again! Please don't go there.

Unfortunately, this is an Italian restaurant where none of the staff speaks Italian, and the dishes offered aren't very traditional. The pasta, in particular, disappointed us: the tagliolini with lemon and burrata was an interesting idea, but the flavor was completely overpowered by the raw garlic, which was present in large quantities and in pieces that were too obvious yet unavoidable. When we pointed this out, the waitress—though kind—replied that she liked it because she loves garlic, but unfortunately, not everyone has the same taste. The carbonara, revisited with lots of parsley, also failed to impress. There were six of us, and only the two people who ordered steak finished their plates, although the flavor wasn't particularly memorable there either. A real shame, because the restaurant is very well-kept, clean, and pleasant, but unfortunately the food didn't meet our expectations.

The food is delicious and the service is good, too. The seating is really nice both inside and outside.

Very delicious Italian food. Definitely recommend it!

The best restaurant in Würzburg.

Wouldn't come back… Meal was mediocre, service was poor. Unfortunately, the price/performance ratio wasn't right.

Great people, super delicious. We'll be back!

We decided to go out for dinner on a whim and waited at the entrance for about five minutes. Although we were noticed, unfortunately, no one came to greet us or show us a seat. We finally sat down on our own. After a long wait – during which the wait staff walked past us several times and other guests were already being served tickets – we felt increasingly uncomfortable and overlooked. When someone finally came to us, we were simply asked if we had a reservation. When we said no, they simply said an unfriendly "Then you'll have to get up!" – without any offer of an alternative or an apology. The overall experience was disappointing. We would have preferred more attention and a more respectful tone. It was a real shame, because we were actually looking forward to our visit.

The interior design and ambience evoke memories of the classic pizzeria of days and years gone by, which unfortunately are rarely found today.

The salad was small (asparagus salad for €15.90). The olive oil was rancid. What a shame.

Most outrageous “service” in a long time.

Good pizza, but disrespectful treatment of two women – very disappointing!!! We've always enjoyed being guests at Pizzeria Rustica, but this visit was unfortunately a bitter disappointment. After waiting for over an hour, we were repeatedly fobbed off with the statement "the pizza is already in the oven" – even though we could see it wasn't prepared until much later. The staff responded unfriendly and dismissive to our polite inquiries. Instead of showing understanding or apologizing, we were even portrayed as the cause of the problem. In the end, they advised us not to come back in the future – a disrespectful and completely inappropriate way of treating guests. It's a shame, because the pizza tasted really good. We're convinced the evening would have been different if the owner himself had been there – we know him as a dedicated host. Unfortunately, this leaves us with nothing but frustration over a ruined evening. We won't be back, as the unfriendly male waitress suggested.

It could be great. Unfortunately, the service does not make the coming guests feel welcome. It's very hectic and you're deliberately overlooked for a long time. The food is really tasty and the portions are large.

I stopped here after walking about 8 km through the city, and I was famished. I was lucky to get a good table on a Friday evening without a reservation. The atmosphere was relaxing, the service was fantastic, the food was excellent, and the dark beer definitely quenched my thirst. I'll definitely return on my next visit.

Great restaurant, we got a seat outside without a reservation. We were also impressed by the good service and the delicious food! Gladly again!

Great pizza, but 1 of the 4 pizzas ordered was burnt and black. Just fine, nothing special. Good price-quality ratio. Good service.

Sensational 🥰 this pizza was unbeatably good 🫣 Service was top notch

Best service we have experienced in a loooong time!! A highlight especially for my daughter - you saved the day for a hungry little girl :) Thank you very much!!!

It took forever for the food. And when the food arrived, it was also done wrong. They didn't even bring any bread or olive oil, which is very typical for the Italians. Very bad experience.

Soo bad service, we waited over an hour for our food. The table behind us canceled the espresso because it didn't come for so long. No word of apology or explanation for the waiting times

The food is okay. Unfortunately the service is very impersonal. You just have the feeling that you are being dealt with quickly. We won't go there anymore.

If you like friendly service and really tasty pizza, this is the place for you.

After enjoying the beautiful sunset at Alte Meinbrük, this is the best place to have a last glass of wine and enjoy a wonderful Italian meal!

Super delicious pizza, great wine, pleasant ambiance, and service. Highly recommended.

One of the best pizzas you can get in Würzburg.

Incredibly good and fresh noodles. Great service!

They should work on improving the welcoming experience and overall hospitality. For me, enjoying a meal isn’t just about the food—it’s also about the atmosphere. I would appreciate a warmer and more inviting attitude from the lady at the entrance to create a more pleasant first impression.

Unfortunately the acoustics are not ideal, but otherwise highly recommended

The food is simply recommended. Super quality and great service in a cozy atmosphere. Simply great.

Pleasant atmosphere. Nice service. Enjoy your meal. Totally recommended.

Very authentic Italian with great food!

We visited the location with four people. The main point of criticism is the lack of service and the excessive pricing, both for drinks and food. Missing pizza bread was only brought after repeated requests, and the advice that the spaghetti was completely inedible due to over-seasoning was completely ignored. You can do that! But you don't have to. Invoice amount 219 euros. We won't be coming back.

We were there for the New Year's Eve menu. Products very good, but you could have gotten more out of it with more bold seasoning. Service worked through the courses without asking for drinks. Disposable camera as a gift is totally unnecessary, it just produces waste. Overall, very nice evening.

Very good...good food, very friendly staff. We would love to come back from Erlangen

Never again! Staff rude and don't keep promises! The 4 of us got there and we were PROMISED a table after 10 minutes to a MAXIMUM 20 minute wait. After waiting 45 minutes in front of the door at -1 degrees, we were told after repeated inquiries that there was no table available. Were treated like dirt

The pizza is really delicious, but there are a few points of criticism: We ordered a table for 5 people and were seated at a table for 4. Due to the elongated shape of the pizzas, we had major problems with space when eating, which somewhat spoiled the positive experience. The tables were generally placed very close to each other. Since there were one person too many for the table, I was sitting somewhat awkwardly in the middle of the room and was often in the way of service staff. The Christmas music was a bit too loud for pleasant table conversations. If it's just about the food, there is still a recommendation. The pizza tastes great, the ingredients are fresh and it's really big.

Very good food and nice service. Wine selection (bottles) a bit small but good quality.

All I can say is: great location, beautifully decorated for Christmas. The food was very tasty. The staff very friendly and attentive. My colleagues and I had a lovely Christmas party there

Food and service were great. Vegetarian pizza was very tasty.

Nice ambience, good service, very tasty food.

As always, very tasty food. What bothered me a bit was that an employee came every 10 minutes to ask if everything was okay and cleared away as soon as someone was finished. I find something like this very stressful. You notice that you have to eat quickly and leave quickly so that the next people can come in. Very very uncomfortable

Always a good address for a nice, warm atmosphere. The food is in no way inferior. We always enjoy going here.

Me and a friend of mine has been coming here constantly for the 5th on a raw for the amazing fungi pizza they do with the great ingredients and unique crust, I also would like to highlight the great service and the professional staff who never let anyone down even without reservation as possible also the atmosphere of this place is so cozy and authentic, I will give 6 stars if possible but this is enough for now, highly recommended!

Quaint. Simply nice and delicious.

I was at La Rustica with friends last week and we were all absolutely thrilled! The food: Authentic Italian cuisine at its finest! The pizza was crispy, the pasta was perfectly al dente and the ingredients were fresh and delicious. The daily specials, which always surprise with new creations, are particularly recommended. The service: The staff was super friendly and attentive. We immediately felt welcome. The ambience: Cozy and inviting! The restaurant is lovingly decorated and you feel like you are in a small Italian village. Perfect for a romantic dinner for two or a convivial evening with friends. Conclusion: La Rustica is an absolute insider tip in Würzburg! Everything is just right here: food, service and ambience. We'll definitely be back!

Das Essen kam sehr schnell und es war Mega lecker 😋, Das Personal sehr freundlich. Die Atmosphäre zum wohlfühlen. Wir werden wieder dort essen 👍

The pizza or pinsa was very good! The piccante is also really hot! We didn't really like the atmosphere, it was very crowded and we sat in the middle. However, we didn't make a reservation, which excused the table. The service wasn't outstanding but OK.

While the food is nothing new. The service is friendly and fast. The restaurant itself is beautiful and very cozy. All in all a great place for a first date.

Disappointing girls night We were looking forward to a nice girls' evening, but unfortunately our visit to the restaurant was anything but pleasant. The pizza and calzone were very tasty, but the pasta was far too dry. In addition, the prices for the food are significantly too high. The biggest problem, however, was the atmosphere. It was extremely loud, so the only way to have a conversation was shouting. The tables are far too close together and my chair was constantly being bumped into by the neighboring table. In addition, the music was way too loud and the air in the room was stuffy - really unpleasant. We didn't feel like having dessert anymore because the evening overall was so disappointing. It's a shame, we expected much more.

Incredibly delicious pizza and pasta, great wines in a cozy atmosphere with friendly service! ❤️-Recommendation!

The food was WAY too expensive Noodles at steak prices

The pizzas are really tasty, the pasta dishes are OK. Anyone who has intolerances should be careful. For example, we had celery, even though it wasn't on the menu. Unfortunately, the starter plate is not recommended. Unfortunately a disappointment both in terms of price and taste. If you like artificial stones, you might also like the ambience.

A chance find while looking for good food. We found a rustic atmosphere, nice service and excellent food! Gladly again

Very tasty pasta dishes. If you're looking for something special, try pear gorgonzola. But the other dishes were also very aromatic, not just the standard version. Not exactly cheap, but absolutely worth the price. Clear recommendation from me.

Unfortunately we didn't get to eat because we were sent away beforehand. The review therefore only refers to the experiences surrounding it. We wanted to go to the restaurant on a Saturday afternoon (restaurant about 10 percent full) with our newborn twins and the twin stroller after consulting the waiter, who said it wouldn't be a problem. Once inside, we said the car could be folded up, we just needed space for the two baby seats (preferably places on a corner bench) and two places for ourselves. We were then told that this was currently not possible because the places had to be kept free for potential customers. One cannot guarantee that the places our two children occupy with the bowls are not needed. The argument that we are also paying customers and not only occupy the seats but also plan to order something did not work. Things can change so quickly, unfortunately it is not possible to provide one of the 10 empty tables for us. We then decided to eat somewhere else. What a shame!

We were here many times two years ago. Even during the Corona period we were buyers of really good pizzas. However, in my opinion, the price-performance ratio is just off. A pizza for almost 20 euros is simply too much. It's also a shame that the air was extremely stale. The greasy wooden plates for the pizzas are original but, in my opinion, a bit unhygienic.

Tolles Restaurant, klein aber fein. Hervorragende Küche, das Essen ist ein Erlebnis für alle Sinne. Wir kommen gerne wieder

Discovered it by chance on my weekend trip - I'm very impressed! Uncomfortable, nice, courteous staff and the best pizza I've eaten in years. Bravo!

Food didn't blow us away. What so so... I don't find this place clean. The seats are so dirty, I think it's a shame for such a nice restaurant that they don't care about cleanliness and renovations. The walls were also very, very dirty. Wouldn't go to this restaurant again.

Good Italian restaurant, although prices are high.

Absolute disaster. After we sat down, we waited forever for anyone to even take drinks. It took a similar amount of time to order food. Afterwards we waited almost 40 minutes to get a burnt pizza. Which then tasted great. La rustica's reputation is better than the store itself. If the price was corresponding, it would be acceptable, but charging between 16 and 20 euros for a pizza and then being served something like that is simply not possible.

Great service and ambience and of course great food. The burrata was great!

It was definitely one of the worst experiences I've ever had, if not the worst. The waitresses didn't know anything about the food. We waited over an hour for our food and all guests who arrived after us got their orders first. And after waiting a long time for the food, when it finally arrived it wasn't what we ordered and we had to wait another 30 minutes and the waiter just took the plate and said nothing, not even an apology. And the food was terrible, I think they tried to get the food to the table so quickly that the second time it came out raw and without seasoning. It was a complete waste of time and money, I definitely don't recommend it.

Delicious food, we had pizza and the pistachio tiramisu for dessert. Attentive service. We felt comfortable.

We cannot recommend this restaurant. Twice fillet steaks for the hefty price of 34 euros each, each with tendons. After we complained, we got the same meat back cut open without any tendons. Absolutely poor quality. When asked when paying, the service employee said, maybe you'll have better luck next time! There won't be a next time for us!

We wanted to come the day before and everything was booked. So we made reservations for the next day and could understand why the restaurant was so popular. As a starter we ate the Mista salad with bread on the side. Ingredients very fresh and pleasant portion to share for 2 people. For the main course we had 2 pizzas, prosciutto and quattro formaggi. The pizzas are not only eye-catchers because of their shape, but also highly recommended in terms of taste. Thin bottom, but not too floppy. Edge is nice and juicy. The quattro formaggi was not overloaded with cheese but perfectly balanced. Didn't finish the pizzas and took the rest with us. Despite the somewhat high price, highly recommended, it's worth the money 😊

We had an extremely disappointing experience at this restaurant today. After our arrival we were offered a place in the sun as all the other tables (at least six) were supposedly reserved. We showed understanding and took the offered seat. After about five minutes a table in the shade became available and since we hadn't ordered anything yet, we asked a waiter if we could have that table. He said he would sort it out. He then came out three times and served other guests without even giving us any feedback or asking us if we would like to order anything. After we spoke to another employee, we were also informed that all tables had already been reserved. Sorry, but we are paying customers and expect to be given at least the courtesy of a response. If our money isn't valued at this restaurant, we'd rather go somewhere else where they'll at least ask us what we want to order. Very disappointing!

We have spaces... wait 10 minutes... Sorry, we don't have spaces

I ordered two types of pasta, the first was very very salty, and the second had a parmesan sauce with water, an unpleasant experience.

Once and never again. If you don't make a reservation, you'll be seated against a wall, even though 80 percent of the other tables were free and weren't filled while we were there.

La Rustica, a rustic Italian restaurant with good Italian cuisine, lives up to its name. The menu is balanced. The food didn't have a wow effect but was still good. We have been there several times and can recommend it. The service was very friendly and there was even a panettone per person. The prices are a bit more expensive compared to other restaurants and the service. The toilets in the basement were nicely decorated. We ate ourselves: Appetizer: broschetta pomodoro, Pizza: Pizza Parma, Pizza Speciale Pasta: Spagetti Napoli, Tagiatelle Mare e Monte, Lasagnete Scampo, Lasagnete Gorgonzola e Noci Dessert: Tiramisu.

One of the best Italians in Würzburg. The food and service deserve five stars. Highly recommended!

Dinner was very good. Bees gave us a lot of trouble. Too hot to eat inside, outside seating was ok.

Super tasty food, but very expensive. We weren't that happy with the service either. You have to draw attention to yourself several times before you get noticed.

Amazing Italian restaurant 😋 we booked the way back via Würzburg only to eat again at this restaurant 😉 Fish and sea food were super delicious👌

Very good Italian food as you would imagine. The service (the gentleman with the pigtail) was really super friendly, very good dealing with customers, where is his salary increase. I would go there again and again 👍👍

The service was very good, the pizzas were very tasty. They gave gifts for the children.

We were there for dinner today and the food was delicious. What was particularly special was the incredibly friendly and attentive service staff. We'll go there again soon.😄😄😄😄😄

Very nice service, food is great! First time in Würzburg, highly recommended!

Service totally unfriendly. Tagiatelle mare Monte tasted like nothing. The sauce from Rigatonie Bologna tasted like it came from a jar.

Everything was good, but the price-performance ratio wasn't right.

We had a wonderful evening in the restaurant and were spoiled by the service and cuisine. Thanks

Great pizza, we stopped in for lunch and sat outside, it was a Monday afternoon.

I would like to give zero, but that's not possible. We arrived around midday when there was really nothing going on. We were received in a totally rude manner. The waiter came, brought the cards and left. 30! Minutes later we left because no one came. Never again! The prices are high but service is a priority.
