LoCoco’s Cucina Rustica: Authentic Italian Dining in Santa Rosa

The atmosphere is absolutely amazing in here! We were served by Jonnie H. He was so welcoming, attentive and hilarious! The food was delicious too. Would definitely recommend and stop by if I’m ever in this area again.

This is our go to Italian/romantic restaurant. We have favorite dishes and get the same thing every time: I get the raviolis & my husband gets taglitelle bolognese. We also split a caesar salad. And because this visit was our wedding anniversary on Valentine's Day. We also got budino ( warm chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream). My only disappointment was I let them know it was our anniversary and it wasn't celebrated.

This was, hands down, the best and most authentic Italian we have ever had! If it was local to me I would be a regular there. My only regret is that we are only traveling through and I couldn’t sample the entire menu. It’s a small location but the atmosphere is on point and it is very busy because the food is fantastic! I was so full but I couldn’t leave without trying their crème brûlée and their cannolis. OMGOODNESS it was so worth being beyond full when we left. I will make a point to go there every time I am traveling through.

Fantastic experience! Quick and friendly server, pasta was amazing (we got the rigatoni and 4 cheese pasta - incredibly well seasoned). Ambiance was so cozy and lively, felt like we were in a different country! Well deserved recognition in the area.

As we walked past Lococo's Cucina Rustica on our way to the sushi place I pretended I had just received a message, so I stopped and checked my phone..giving just enough time to pick up the wonderful aromas coming from Lococo's! As expected...She says "Why don't we eat here instead of the sushi place...it smells wonderful" My plan worked perfectly, but it wasn't as perfect as the pasta we had...now that was perfect! 5

Nice ambiance. The paparadelle with sausage & mushrooms was super flavorful. Their broccolini was bitter and delicious. We got another red pasta that was way too acidic though

This is an interesting, old school “red sauce” style Italian joint in downtown Santa Rosa that’s worth stopping in to visit! We came in on a very busy weeknight for dinner. Our server was helpful and informative. The menu was filled with the typical, old school “NY” red sauce styled food. The items we chose were really good... sauce included! Their shrimp scampi entrée was beautiful and tasty! The shrimp was decent in it, though a couple pieces were slightly over-cooked. The potatoes were tasty and not dry. Their Spicy Rigatoni Vodka was really good and filling, though not spicy at all. Save room for dessert, they have a nice frozen Limoncello that’s pretty tasty! I’d come back for dinner again!

Probably the best and most authentic Italian restaurant. The service is excellent! They literally make you feel like your family. The food is amazing and delicious. Everything was perfect from the appetizers to the desserts. The take pride in everything they serve. Romantic for a couple or a great family dinner. You just can't go wrong here. Perfection! If you are in the area, you should eat here.
