MEDITERRANEAN DINING
Established in 2011, Rustica Newcastle Beach brings personable, friendly service offering a sense of comfort and relaxation for your dining experience. We showcase the finest traditional Mediterranean cuisine (with a little twist) focusing on meat, seafood and overall fresh quality ingredients treated simply. To complement this, some well-known favourites to some lesser-known and boutique wineries are showcased with varietals chosen to be perfectly suited to our cuisine. We have an enthusiastic group of bar staff that are regularly updating and creating specials for our cocktail menu.
Team this with a spectacular seat providing a stunning vista of Newcastle Beach, Rustica boasts highly sought views day or night. We enjoy the loyalty and the familiarity of locals that return regularly, but if you are in town for only a little while or new to Newcastle, it’s a must visit and we welcome you warmly.
