About this menu

Rustico is a Neapolitan restaurant in Pontypridd, serving pizza, pasta and Italian sweets with drinks to match. The menu opens with light bites and street food, including polpettine and Rustico bread, before moving on to Nonna's Kitchen, where you will find lasagna and rigatoni arrabiata. Pizza is split between the classic pizzeria range, with Margherita and Diavola, and the gourmet pizzas. Rustricotti, sides and dips, and salads sit alongside, and the menu closes with dessert, a kids menu, soft drinks, and birre and vino.

Families can head to the kids menu, which gives younger diners a section of choices to themselves. For a smaller order, pair light bites or a salad with sides and dips. For a fuller meal, look to the pasta in Nonna's Kitchen or a pizza from either the classic or gourmet range. Dessert and the drinks sections, soft drinks plus beer and wine, round off a visit to the Taff St restaurant.
