| - We had a great experience for Happy Hour at Rusconi's! It was a bit of a drive for us but we headed over on Friday right after work. The restaurant wasn't busy when we arrived but it definitely picked up closer to the end of the Happy Hour time / beginning of dinner time.
We decided to try a few items out from their Happy Hour menu -- Goat Cheese & Grilled Peach Fondue, Short Rib Sliders, and the "Kitchen Platter". This was a lot of food for two people; we could've just ordered two items and been set!
The fondue was definitely our favorite, it had a unique taste with the goat cheese & sweetness from the grilled peach. My husband enjoyed the sliders, I'm not a huge fan of Short Rib so I didn't have more than a small bite. We did upgrade to the side of Truffle fries which we wouldn't do next time due to the price.
The "Kitchen Platter" was massive! It came with two different types of cheeses, three different types of meats, pickled carrots / cauliflower / sun-dried tomatoes, spiced olives, pesto, and bread. Overall, a really filling option with quality items. I wouldn't hesitate to get this again!
We ended up getting the Dark Chocolate Bread Pudding as well for dessert. It wasn't my favorite dessert ever due to the dark chocolate but it was pretty good. Their Brie Cheesecake sounded interesting so it's now on my list to try out next time!
Overall, a good choice of restaurant for Happy Hour! The service was good throughout the evening and they had decent sized menus for food and drinks. We'll stop by again!
