I already blogged our favorite pizza place, Cataro's. But when the weather is nice on a Saturday afternoon and we want a good lunch we head to Milwaukee's 3rd Ward to Rustico for Italian food right on the river. The service is always good and they have tables on the boardwalk along the river that is always busy with boats. This year we started and ended our summer at Rustico. We just love sitting outside and the wait staff never rushes out.
They have a good selection of dishes but we usually head there for the pizza. Its a thin crust pizza and they have a lot of different options. The sauce is sweeter with some tomato chunks which can turn some people off. This time we went with our go-to. Pepperoni and Kalamata Olives on half. We got an antipasto meat platter for an appetizer to enjoy while watching the regatta.
If I'm not feeling pizza they make a dish similar to my Agli Oilo recipe. I always ask them to add sliced salami and the chefs never have a problem doing that. They also have a brunch menu and an AWESOME lunch special. Check out the menu! http://www.rusticopizzeria.com/ If you end up checking out the restaurant let me know what you think!
