Tecla Rustic Bistro & Bar

The place was cozy, staff was friendly. Glad to have a fine dining restaurant in the area, there aren’t many restaurants around. Started with the appetizer- the crab cakes were delicious but a little smaller than other restaurants. For our main dishes I went with the scallops with risotto which was delicious and the scallops were cooked to perfection and the risotto had a good al dente texture which complimented the sauce. My husband chose the braised short rib which was very flavorful and pulled apart nicely. The compliments of the sweet potato and candied bacon went very well with it. We also added the roasted brussel sprouts which were cooked nicely and the French onion Mac & cheese which was creamy but not much of the French onion flavor save a bit of crispy onion on top. It wasn’t what we expected. For dessert, they gave us a complimentary deconstructed cannoli because it was our anniversary, which made us feel special. Overall, the food and experience was great and I’d definitely go again as well as recommend it to others.

Food and services were both Spot on! Perfection! I only took pictures of appetizers because I forgot to take pictures of on entrées.
Atmosphere is very charming, our waitress Krista was friendly and very helpful with Menu. I give 5 stars for overall, meal, services and atmosphere. Highly recommend. Prices are well worth the meal!!!!

The service here was amazing! We were seated quickly, and multiple staff checked on us throughout the night. As this was our first time here, we wanted to try different things, so we ordered a few appetizers as well. The crab cakes and risotto fritters were very tasty. We ordered peach mules which were good as well. Open steak and gnocchi entrée s were good also. The French Onion mac & cheese is amazing and is very worth getting!! So good! We also ordered dessert, the chocolate cake and the open cannoli dessert were our favorites. The atmosphere and decor in there had a nice vibe.

Had a delicious meal 9/8/22.. our waitress was great too!

I love this place, second time I went but if I lived closer I'd be there now often for sure. I got the Sunday sauce pasta with a side of ricotta to mix in as I plowed through it. The homemade pasta and sauce is simply magical. It's definitely my favorite place. Madison served us again which was a pleasant surprise. She is so attentive and personable, she could be anyone's best friend. I've never had a server that I would invite to sit and just eat and have conversation. The first time I was there she took the time to explain the history of her family and the food. Overall a fantastic dining experience again and my go to place for Sunday sauce :) Hidden gem in the north towns you must try.

Special thanks to Tecla Bistro for hosting two wonderful dinners (a family gathering, and a funeral reception). Your focus on great tasting food along with excellent service was much appreciated following a sudden family death.
Hats off to your employees for their friendliness and table waiting skills during a difficult time.
Everyone commented on how much they enjoyed the food and I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending you to friends and family in the future.
We are grateful that you could accommodate our request on short notice too.
Thank you again!

Food was great service was fabulous chef Belardi never disappoints.

This is one of the best restaurants I have eaten at in quite a while. Food is exquisite! I had the baked, hand rolled, gnocchi, and it was fabulous and a portion size that was not overwhelming. The rum soaked cake was delicious and light.
Owner/Chef Joe is so passionate about food, its preparation and presentation. He is a delight to chat with. Service is wonderful and non-intrusive. Dining room is not noisy as they don't want you to rush. I cannot recommend this hidden gem enough!

We had a private event up stairs with 53 people. Every thing was wonderful. The staff was great. The buffet was all good. There was pasta, meatballs, baked chicken, salad, green beans and desert. Plenty off parking. I recommend this place for dinner or private event.

Attended an event in the banquet room. Service was very good with very friendly staff. Buffet food was absolutely delicious, even the salad and bread. They also served delicious desserts. Got complements from many attendees of how much they enjoyed the food and service. 10/10 would recommend.

We had a wonderful dinner after our kids graduation. Food was delicious and the service was great. Food came out slow put they apologized and gave us a few desserts. People need to keep in mind that everyone is struggling with staff so be appreciative of the staff that is working. It was our first experience and will definitely will be back.

Celebrated our six year anniversary last night and dinner was phenomenal.
- filet cooked perfect, crisp outside tender inside
- scallops were 10/10
- cocktails were delicious
- the manager took it upon herself to go table to table to make sure everything was acceptable and when service got a little slow she asked if we needed drink orders in
Don’t wait on this restaurant, it’s a gem in the middle of nowhere

Amazing food, great service, fantastic atmosphere. So glad to see such a quality venue in our community. Great place for a dinner date, nice dinner with family, or a large function. Murph at the bar is fantastic and makes a mean Old Fashioned. Will keep coming back

Atmosphere was wonderful! Food was delicious. My steak was cooked to perfection. Definitely recommend getting the crab cakes. So good! Our waitress was wonderful. And special thanks to the chef for my dessert to celebrate my birthday 😊

We made dinner reservations for six people to celebrate my son's birthday and couldn't have been happier with our choice at Tecla Rustic Bistro & Bar. The decor of the restaurant is beautiful. The entire staff were very friendly and the service was excellent! Everyone in our party agreed that their entree choice was delicious. I would recommend the baked gnocchi, short rib, and scallops and risotto. They had a crabmeat scampi dinner special that was so delicious too! Favorite sides were the french onion mac and cheese, hand cut fries and the black and blue chips. We will definitely be back again!!

Celebrated a friend’s birthday for dinner. Great experience. Service was perfect and food was amazing. Nice atmosphere and friendly staff. Will definitely dine here again. Soon!

Loved this place! Food was exceptional. We had the gnocchi and the scallops with lobster risotto. Both were unbelievably good. Similar menu to Giancarlo’s, but much better food and service.

We went here for Mother’s Day the food was amazing. The service was great Michelle was outstanding. I can’t say enough about what a great time we had.

The food is excellent, very rich and full of flavor. The staff is friendly and provides great service. The prices are reasonable based on the higher quality of food that you get. You get what you pay for here. You will not be disappointed. This is a great place for a happy hour, a party or just an intimate night out for a couple.

Very nice place for food and drinks. The staff are very friendly and the food is great. Their menu is small but the food has big flavor. The burgers are wonderful.
