Rustico in Alexandria

Just wanted everyone who read MSN's list of "10 best DC restaurants" to know that Rustico is about as good as a horrible restaurant simile. The service was bad, but im a patient person. The food, however, was not even Denny's worthy (no offense Denny's). I paid 30 bucks for a Steak that gave me no pleasure to eat... but i did eat it. Oh, I ate it because each bite was worth about 3 dollars. I only ordered a 30 dollar steak because the appetizer was not very good and i wanted to save my Valentines meal. My girlfriends pork dish was equally pleasureless. Note, also, had i not made a quick trip to Ben and Jerry's, it may have led to a not so sexy Valentines day. Just Kidding. But Seriously.

On a positive note, they have a huge beer selection and i suppose there pizza may be good, i didnt try it, but based on the quality and time they put in their meals, i would doubt it.

I dont usually trash restaurants, but this was a moderately expensive waste of money and for anyone looking for something other than a beer, you've been warned.

Pizzas are good, but beer selection, i mean, that location is not where you would look for a beer paradise.

I give it a C+
