great food!. we went to sonoma for a weekend getaway and were recommended to cucina rustica. make a reservation for the weekends because it gets crowded. the place was outstanding. the waitstaff was very friendly and good. we had giovanni who was great. we both orderedexcellenttomato based pasta dishes. the cannoli dessert was very good. i am from ny so i know good italian food. this place is not for olive garden folk. go there for a real italian meal.
