Lovely space and attentive service food looked better than it tasted. The chive biscuit was very heavy not flavorful. Arugula shrimp salad looked beautiful but wasn’t flavorful need more seasoning

We really enjoy going to Ruscello's because the food is good and service is very good. It is not a place where you can have a leisurely lunch or dinner and spend hours chatting because the place is busy and can be noisy. We've come to expect it so it's fine.

I ate at Ruscello in Nordstrom at Ala Moana Mall today, and it was pretty good. I got the avocado turkey club sandwich, and it was tasty—lots of avocado and turkey, and the bread was nice and crispy. The Caesar salad that came with it was solid, not too heavy on the dressing, just fresh and good. We started with the Caprese Burrata salad as an appetizer, and it was cool—tomatoes and mozzarella were fresh, and the basil made it pop. Nothing fancy, just a good start. The best part was the view, though. You’re looking out over the city, and you can see the Pacific Ocean too. It’s chill and makes the food feel even better, like you’re eating with a front-row seat to something awesome. Ruscello’s has great food and a killer view—worth checking out.
