This is the best place for dinner in Lake Placid. The staff is excellent and the food is delicious. You will not be disappointed.

We stayed at the Whiteface lodge and couldn't wait to go back to Caffe Rustica! The food was excellent as usual and the service was excellent. A must if you're staying in Lake Placid

Made a reservation a few weeks in advance, asked to sit in dining room and they said absolutely. Got to the restaurant and they gave us the worst table in bar/kitchen room right next to all the plate
