Junior Food Critic Review: Rustico In Flatts
Looking for somewhere to take the kids for a bite? Who’s going to give you a more honest, bite-sized review than a 12-year-old? Eliza Olander lives in St David’s, provides candid reviews of local establishments.
[Written by 12 year old Eliza Olander...with a little help from Uncle Tony]
Venue: Rustico, Flatt’s Village
Appetizer: Bruschetta; chunky tomatoes, olives, capers and fresh basil, served on toasted homemade bread, $9.
The bread was crunchy on the outside but still soft. I like that the tomatoes were fresh and the bread was tasty.
Drink: Shirley Temple, $4
First impressions: It’s quite modern and family-friendly but it’s also quite casual.
Service: The waiters are kind and not too fussy.
Main course: Pizza margherita, $14, with black olives and onions as extra toppings, at $1 each.
The onions were sweet which I completely love, and the pizza it has basil on it too — it was yummy. The crust wasn’t too thin, just how I like it, nice and crunchy.
Dessert: Homemade panna cotta with vanilla cream and fresh Berries, $9.
It’s very creamy. Raspberries sometimes they can be a little sour but this is this perfect combination of tart and sweet. Panna cotta is one of my favourite deserts — I would say this is the best part of the meal.
Overall experience: I enjoyed it — it was a nice atmosphere. It’s a lovely location, right by the sea. The sun was out and it was warm and lovely. I love Flatts Village because it’s a very colourful, busy area.

Very good!!!
this junior food critic is so adorable. i enjoy reading her reviews.
keep up the good work, Eliza.
ps. you’re not a cheap date by the way lol
That Shirley Temple was very expensive at $4
They are only $1:75 at Pompano Beach club
It is only soda water with a little coloring
You have no idea what a Shirley Temple is, do you?
hah close…..Ginger ale with grenadine. Excellent source of too much sugar
And still too expensive at $4!!!!
Well done Eliza. Rústico is one of our favorite Restaurants. Making me crave their Menu.
Another great review Eliza! We love Rustico too. Keep it up! Love Aunt Judy’s son and daughter-in-law xo
