New Menu from Chef Michelino “Mike” Vastola

Rustica’s first anniversary is this June, and we are delighted to start the celebration early.

As a young Italian-American restaurant, located in the heart of the New Jersey Gold Coast, we feel fortunate to have a growing number of diners, sharing invaluable feedback with us and recommending our restaurant to family and friends.

In gratitude, we are delighted to announce Rustica’s new menu, thoughtfully created by Chef Michelino “Mike” Bastola, a native of Salerno, Italy.

Bastola, who recently was promoted to Chef, designed the menu as a tribute to his Italian heritage and in recognition of the distinguished tastes of our diverse community.

We invite you to rethink an Italian-American cuisine, created with you in mind.
