I'm an east coast girl living in a west coast world. I grew up in New England before moving to SoCal for several years. I then lived in NYC or a year before moving to AZ in 2009. I worked in the entertainment industry for many years of my adult life and have a deep love for photography, writing, and traveling around the U.S. as well as to far-flung locations around the world. Travel is my life and writing about it is a dream!
Growing up in an Italian-centric culture, I’ve indulged in some of the best homemade pasta. I know that not all Italian restaurants are created equal so when I find one that offers delicious homemade pasta, I become a repeat customer. Nothing beats a heaping plate or bowl of fresh pasta smothered in marinara and topped with parmesan. It’s comfort food for me. If you’re looking for a restaurant that serves some of the freshest pasta in New Mexico, there’s one place in Santa Fe you have to try.
Ready to indulge in some of the freshest pasta in New Mexico? If you said yes then make your way to Rustica Fresh Italian Kitchen located at 2574 Camino Entrada in Santa Fe.
This beautiful modern Italian restaurant offers a lively atmosphere and has become a favorite for locals and tourists alike. It's as much a date destination as it is a place to take the whole family.
Before your pasta, I suggest you get an appetizer like the crispy calamari (a personal favorite of mine), garlic bread, burrata, or arancini. You can't go wrong with any of these!
If you don't feel like pasta, Rustica offers dozens of non-pasta dishes like pizza, grilled Atlantic salmon, or the crispy skin branzino (pictured here). What will you order when you dine here?
