Leamington Fish Bar in Warwick

Rustiq Restaurant - A Delightful Dining Experience Nestled in the heart of Leamington, Rustiq is a hidden gem that promises not only incredible food but also an unforgettable atmosphere. From the moment you step inside, you’re embraced by a warm, elegant ambiance that perfectly complements the culinary journey ahead. We started our evening with a glass of wine and absolutely delightful. The shared platters were beautifully presented and packed with flavor, making them the perfect way to explore the menu together. Each bite felt thoughtfully crafted, with fresh ingredients and creative combinations. To end the meal on a sweet note, we indulged in desserts prepared by the talented chef. The tiramisu was heavenly, light, and perfectly balanced, while the chocolate fondant oozed rich, velvety goodness—a true masterpiece. Rustiq’s combination of exceptional food, charming ambiance, and attentive service makes it a must-visit for anyone looking to enjoy a relaxing and indulgent dining experience. Highly recommended! 😊❤️😊

We had dinner here last night and it was let down by two things. The draft from the doors into the restaurant was terrible. All the tables in proximity to the doors looked like they were affected and I ended up having to borrow my friend’s scarf to keep warm! I was wearing jeans and a long sleeved top so not bad clothing choices! Sadly on top of this the service was pretty hit and miss. No one came to take a drinks order so we tried to ask one of the staff after we’d had the menus for ten minutes but he couldn’t take orders so sent someone else over eventually (lots of staff but most of them unable to take orders or deal with the bills!) After we managed to order drinks they then took ages to turn up. In fact the first dishes were served before the drinks arrived! We didn’t receive all the dishes we ordered, but they were still on the bill when we eventually got it and we ended up having to go to the bar to ask for it to be removed. Food was pretty good on the whole, the cheese croquette was very heavy on goats cheese which divided the table a bit but there are tapas places in Leamington with better ambiance and service for the price point. We spent £50 a head for food and drinks.

Went there for my daughter’s 19th birthday. The vibe of the place was great and the staff were very welcoming. The food was great too. We were most surprised when they played happy birthday and bought out a lovely slice of cake for our daughter totally complimentary.

Great service and atmosphere, good selection of tapas. The Tapas themselves were ok, but mostly not great; Chorizo was great. Chili prawns, Buratta, Lamb/Beef meatballs and Masala chicken were just okay. The Pistachio cake for desert was also ok. Generally not quite as good as La Tasca but food was decent. Was surprised it's so highly rated on Trip Advisor (3rd in town); maybe we just got unlucky ordered the wrong things.

What a gem of a place! Beautiful food and perfect atmosphere. The tapas were very generous and every mouthful was so well prepared and delicious. Will definitely come back again.

Had the Christmas set menu, service was great friendly staff, great amount of food. Dessert was lovely

Disappointed by the very salty and oily carbonara pasta. The chocolate dessert was very, very runny. A hair on the scallop and no commercial gesture, a bit of a shame

Very good atmosphere- great service but the best part is the food. Very tasty and worth the price. If you are looking for a nice restaurant which is worth the quality then this is it

Great atmosphere, highly professional staff. I was positively surprised by the quality of the food, from starters to dessert, and the coffee was exceptional for a coffee lover like me. Overall, I highly recommend this place. Keep up the good work, everyone!

Group of five had a couple of sharing platters and some sides. Everything was delicious and beautiful presentation. Very nice wine and cosy atmosphere.

The food was lovely and great value. The restaurant was quiet, but we still had a good time.

The platters are the absolute highlight – beautifully presented, generously portioned, and bursting with flavour. Whether you’re sharing with friends or indulging solo, they are a must-try! Fantastic food, warm ambiance, and great service make Rustiq a top choice.

The menu is a testament to culinary excellence, with standout dishes like the ribeye steak and grilled salmon steaks stealing the spotlight. The ribeye steak is perfectly cooked to your preference, tender, juicy, and bursting with flavor. The grilled salmon steaks are equally impressive, with a delicate balance of smoky char and freshness that makes every bite heavenly.

We had an amazing time at Rustiq! The food was excellent, so many choices for tapas. There were 5 of us and we ordered one of the platters and then 10 tapas dishes to share and everything was fantastic! The portion sizes were also generous. The service was warm and friendly, it was my mum's Birthday and they'd put up some tasteful birthday decorations around our table as well as a birthday candle with her dessert. Would definitely go again and thoroughly recommend a meal at Rustiq!

I've eaten here twice now and thoroughly enjoyed both times. Highly reccomended.

The sea bass fillet was cooked to perfection, featuring a beautifully crisp skin that added a delightful crunch. The tender, flaky meat beneath was full of flavor, making every bite a true delight.

The salmon carpaccio was a delightful start to the meal – thinly sliced, melt-in-your-mouth salmon topped with a zesty citrus dressing and delicate herbs. The freshness of the fish shone through, and the flavors were perfectly balanced, making it a refreshing and elegant appetizer.

I had the pleasure of dining at Rustiq, and it was an experience to remember. The highlight for me was the Smoked Salmon Salad. It’s a dish that feels light yet satisfying, ideal for any time of the day. The ambiance is charming and cozy, with a rustic touch that makes you want to linger. The staff were warm and attentive, ensuring everything was just right. If you’re looking for fresh, vibrant flavors, Rustiq is the place to be!

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Rustiq Restaurant, and I must say, it exceeded all my expectations! From the moment I stepped in, I was greeted with a warm and welcoming ambiance that set the tone for a memorable dining experience. The menu is a delightful fusion of Mediterranean flavors, showcasing fresh and high-quality ingredients. I tried the lamb tagine, which was cooked to perfection, with tender meat and a rich, flavorful sauce. The appetizers were equally impressive, especially the hummus – so creamy and delicious! The service deserves a special mention. The staff were attentive, friendly, and genuinely passionate about ensuring every guest has a great experience. The restaurant’s interior is both chic and cozy, making it a perfect spot for anything from a casual meal to a special celebration. I highly recommend Rustiq for anyone looking to enjoy amazing food, great service, and a lovely atmosphere. I'll definitely be back soon!

Amazing food and great service! Lovely staff, will definitely be returning!

Fantastic food really delicious tapas, great service and such a lovely atmosphere. Great value for a special night out. Thankyou

I had the pleasure of dining at Rustiq Restaurant recently, and it was an incredible experience. The ambiance is beautifully rustic and perfect for a relaxed evening. The platter selection is simply outstanding, and the Spanish Platter stole the show! It was a perfect combination of authentic flavors, fresh ingredients, and generous portions. The staff were welcoming and attentive, adding a personal touch to the meal. Whether you're in the mood for sharing small plates or indulging in something unique, Rustiq is the place to be. Highly recommended!

Food, Staff, ambience all fantastic. Made an incredible effort for my Wife’s birthday which was very much appreciated. Thank you to you all.

Absolutely amazing the food was so good and the atmosphere so relaxing. Staff are so kind. I would definitely recommend this place it's a little gem on the taste buds so go in and don't walk past. Definitely felt like I was in a different country having a magical adventure. Thank you so much.😊

Great atmosphere, friendly staff and great food, highly recommended! Carbonara, Spaghetti with meatballs and the Alfredo were all superb!

I had a fantastic dining experience at Rustiq! From the beautifully rustic decor to the delightful dishes, every detail was thoughtfully crafted. The menu offered a great variety, and the meal exceeded my expectations in taste and presentation. The service was exceptional – the team went above and beyond to make sure we were happy. I can’t wait to return!

Lovely place - great atmosphere and the food is lovely. The staff were brilliant - especially Chevas, he was brilliant! Would definitely recommend to anyone. Had a great afternoon/evening there.

Enjoyed an evening of delightful tapas perfectly paired with a great selection of wines. The flavors were outstanding, and the staff’s recommendations were spot on. A must-visit!

Rustiq is a true treasure! The Mediterranean flavors were absolutely incredible. We’ll definitely be back!

I recently went to Rustiq for the second time, and it was even better than I remembered. My favorite dish has to be the prawns tempura, they are unexpectedly delicious, crispy but tender, light, and full of flavour. The desserts are also a highlight, many of them made in-house, which really shows in the taste. The atmosphere is cozy and lively, and the staff are super friendly and professional, making the whole experience top-notch. Honestly, it’s a 5-star spot and then some!

Enjoyed another excellent meal at Rustiq. We had our usual seafood platter accompanied by delicious roasted vegetables. Lovely comfotable and relaxing surroundings.

Rustiq has become our go-to spot for Mediterranean food. The Spanish influence in the dishes is clear, and every bite feels like a trip to the coast! The seafood is top-notch, and the wine pairing is always spot on. Can’t wait to come back!

We celebrated my husband’s birthday, and I had mentioned it in my reservation. They decorated the table with balloons and festive touches, which was a lovely surprise. We ordered tapas: beef carpaccio, lamb skewers, patatas bravas, prawns with chili and garlic, grilled octopus, fried calamari, and a bottle of Montepulciano d’Abruzzo red wine. Everything was delicious, though the calamari could have been better. Other than that, we really enjoyed the meal. The service was excellent, and I want to especially thank Mr. Mehmet Ali for his attentiveness. The atmosphere was wonderful, with soft jazz music and charming décor. We will definitely return!

I wasn't sure about another Tapas place in Leamington however, the food, service and relaxed atmosphere was very good. It's nice to see some twists on traditional Tapas and lovely homemade desserts. I'll definitely be going back.

I visited Rustiq Restaurants in Leamington Spa yesterday, and I must say, it was an overall wonderful experience. The place was bustling with customers, which is always a good sign, but it did mean we had to wait a bit longer for our food. However, the wait was absolutely worth it! The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure we were comfortable while we waited. They were always on hand to check if we needed anything, which made the experience even better. Now, the food—what can I say? It was phenomenal! Every dish was bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. You can tell that a lot of care and attention goes into their cooking. Despite the initial wait, the combination of excellent service and outstanding food made it a memorable dining experience. I’ll definitely be returning to Rustiq and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Leamington Spa.

We went here today and loved the place. The Bruschetta with chicken, mozerella and tomato sauce was amazing, and we gave a personal thanks to the chef. We sat outside, which is in a lovely area, the inside is also stunning. You definitely get your money's worth here. The people that work here are very warm and friendly, we'll be back very soon. Thank you so much :-)

We had a great night out with friends. Calamari, seafood food platter , fillet mignon were excellent.Service staff was very friendly and professional. I highly recommend .

Splendid food and service. The ribeye steak which what I ordered was cooked to my preference and seasoned very well.

Absolutely dreadful service. Food decent but for a table of 6 on a Tuesday night walking in at 6:30 with a booked table absolutely no excuse for how bad this was

Really enjoyable tapas. Really friendly staff. Well worth a visit.

Although the food looked good it did lack in flavour.

If you love Mediterranean food, Rustiq is the place to be. The restaurant excels with its diverse range of tapas that capture the essence of Spanish cuisine. The hot tapas, such as the Smoked Salmon and Grilled Octopus, are flavorful and expertly prepared. The cold tapas, including the Sea Bass Marine, are refreshing and delightful. The atmosphere is charming, and the service is both friendly and efficient. Rustiq is a true culinary gem in Leamington Spa!

Had a really delicious meal at Rustiq. I ordered steak and it was cooked perfectly. Nice atmosphere, enough of a buzz but not noisy. Would definitely return. They also didn't automatically kick us out when our time was up like other local restaurants so we had a nice relaxed start to our evening and got to sample some post-dinner cocktails.

Thanks for such a warm bday welcome! We loved it. Great first visit and we shall be back.

Loved it here, really great food, service and nice decoration

Popped in here randomly on Saturday, as we were walking past. It looked good. Turns out it tasted even better ! Plumped for the seafood platter, which was an array of deliciousness. The squid and prawns were perfectly cooked, which makes a refreshing change. Service was calm and polite. Recommended.

It was excellent - we will be back again and again. The service was excellent, the food was delicious and good portion. Well done!!

Recommend the seafood platter with bits of everything that is tempting. The helpings are of very decent size. We ordered what we thought would satiate three but they turned up enough for four. The food is delicious and fresh. Next time we will come on a festive occasion for which we think the restaurant has a suitable deco. Lovely place.

Although there are many Good restaurants in Leamington spa this is one you should really visit when we visited the food and staff were excellent definitely be going again

Incredible food, and kind service. They provided gluten free options and their menu was easy to follow.

Had the pleasure of visiting Rustiq late one Sunday evening after trying to find somewhere to eat in Leamington. Although quiet at the time, the place is nicely decorated inside, great menu, professional & quick service with superb tasting food. Will definitely be back again soon.

Really lovely food, atmosphere and brilliant friendly staff. Highly recommend. Good value too.

Quiet place for an early lunch. Lovely food.

Incredible food! We have been to a lot of restaurants around the world but this really impressed us. The food was so tasty, hot, and given with excellent service. A hidden gem that I would recommend to all!!

Beautiful restaurant with great food and service. We’ve been twice with young children and the staff were always attentive and tolerating! The food is always fresh and tastes delicious. The seafood platter is a favourite as well as the pistachio chocolate cake! The food went down too fast to take any pictures!

Never noticed this place before because it’s a bit tucked away on the corner so easy to miss…. But love this place. Food was fresh, healthy and very tasty. Very nice atmosphere. Nice vibrant decor. Kids menu. Clean. Good service. I will be back. 😊

Excellent food, great atmosphere and brilliant service. The octopus was amazing! We’ll be back again!

Had an amazing late lunch for 2! We were served by Ella a lovely member of the wait staff time team who was patient and the perfect amount of chatty. Decided to go for tapas options and found that 4 plates and 2 cocktails made the perfect order. Really brilliant food with some incredible options available. Definitely worth a try and definitely returning!

Amazing tapas, lovely restaurant to spend an evening in. So close to the Parade - a real gem

Inside the restaurant is lovely. It’s big and when we went was busy so the atmosphere was really good. The food is lovely and you get a lot of it. It’s reasonably priced and has a really big choice. The only thing that lets this place down is the constant asking if we had finished and can our plates be taken away. Some food was actually taken away so they had to bring some more back. Just felt a bit under pressure to eat quickly. I would come back as the food was so nice and I would recommend.

Not bad , maybe wait till people finish starter before cooking mains as chicken was dry , it was refunded which was ok but future reference dont cook until finished starters apart from that it was amazing place .

My family and I went to Rustiq on Saturday February 24 as it was my husband’s birthday. Our waitress Christina was so lovely. We’d never been before but we will definitely come back. The food was excellent - we had 10 tapas plates, a mix of hot and cold. The octopus was a stand out as was the baba ganoush. My two kids had a tiramisu for dessert which was delicious. It’s a very cool place, great atmosphere, cool vibe and Christina was brilliant answering any questions and just a great waitress. This is an amazing place and we loved it. Totally recommended

Fantastic, I spent Valentine's Day with my wife, our daughter had recommended it to us and everything was wonderful, exquisite food, tasty sauces to dip bread in, some will understand. The service is very attentive and friendly, without hesitation we will go again.

What a great little restaurant for Mediterranean cuisine! We came here for a Valentines Day dinner and arrived around 6pm when it was still a bit quiet. Service was initially quick and very friendly, but unfortunately as it became busier the service became really slow. We ended up waiting over half an hour for desserts and by that point wished we hadn't ordered any. When it finally arrived it was divine though - especially the Tiramisu! The fillet mignon ordered medium arrived rare, but was still very delicious. Overall we're looking forward to visiting again, but will likely plan another visit on a less busy evening. To avoid the wait.

Went in on a whim and was not disappointed.the food was spot on with excellent service the food took a little while, but then you knew that it was freshly cooked and very tasty....I'm looking forward to going again....many thanks for a lovely evening.

Visited Rustiq for the first time today, the food and service was very good and we will definitely be visiting again.

Excellent seafood platter and octupus tapas. Thank you

Tasty food, cozy atmosphere and friendly staff, so all you can ask for to have a nice time out

Absolutely delightful dining experience! The restaurant boasts impeccable service and delectable dishes. I indulged in a divine seafood pasta, while my partner savored a mouthwatering steak. The extensive wine selection added to our joy. The ambiance was truly enchanting, ensuring we'll be frequenting this gem more often.🥂🍾🫶🏻

Fantastic evening spent with work colleagues. Stuffed squid an unique blend of spices and really tasty.... Had a very good time

Exquisite food I have ever had ❤️

Nice food and I chose from I had amazing time with my friends there food was really delicious I will be back again.

.Delicious food and friendly service

Great service polite friendly staff, plenty of choice of food and beverages on the menu. Definitely recommend the tapas menu..excellently presented and very tasty.. Good quality food and reasonably priced..

it was great evening with beloved friends. food was fantastic

My friend arrived before me and ordered a Moka, said it was awful. I asked for a double shot Moka and received a weak laté with no taste of chocolate. It's obvious by the excessive temperature that they're clueless about making coffee...sorry but it was rubbish.

Great to see they have tweaked the menu. The new tapas menu is really good, highly recommend the prawn tempura & fillet mignon. And great service 👌

Great food and service. Loved it and will be back.

Visited for a birthday meal. Very kind attentive, friendly staff. Good menu choice good prices.

What a fabulous restaurant. The food is very high quality. The staff are so welcoming. The decor is sophisticated and stunning, and without loud music! The owner Vili just makes it a great experience. Highly recommended.

Classy restaurant. Delicate food. Deserts to die for! Veli, the owner, is such a gentleman.

The mastery of various cooking techniques was evident in every seafood dish. Whether it was the perfectly seared prawns or the precise timing in poaching the salmon, each preparation showcased a high level of culinary expertise. Whether you're a seafood aficionado or simply looking to indulge in ocean-inspired delights, Rustiq is a top-notch choice.

The choice of sides and accompaniments for the hot tapas was impeccable. The patatas bravas were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, a perfect foil for the rich, savory flavors of the tapas. Dining at Rustiq was a memorable experience!

To start, the ambiance of Rustiq is warm and inviting, with rustic decor that makes you feel right at home. The dimly lit dining area exudes an intimate and cozy atmosphere, perfect for sharing small plates of exquisite food with friends or loved ones. The friendly and attentive staff added to the overall welcoming vibe, making us feel like honored guests from the moment we arrived.

As a seafood enthusiast, I have high standards for scallops, and Rustiq surpassed them with flying colors. The presentation alone was a work of art. The first bite was nothing short of heaven – tender and sweet, with a delicate sear that added a delightful contrast in texture. The accompanying sauce, a symphony of flavors, enhanced the natural sweetness of the scallops without overpowering them. Each bite was a revelation, leaving me craving more.

Slow service and not great quality food

Wonderful food and fantastic atmosphere. The servers can't do enough for you. Thank you for a lovely evening, will definitely return soon!

Beautiful tasty food, ambiance and service. We will be back!

Well worth a visit, older Leamingtonions will recall this place used to be "Rhubarb" I had the sea bass and my daughter had bruschetta. Good portion sizes and a good drinks menu. Not cheap but not overpriced. Friendly staff and a relaxing environment. Recommended 👍

Just took our first visit to this lovely restaurant after walking past it the last few months, will definitely be back the service was great and the owner even took the time to talk about the dishes and how they were cooked and his specialty dishes. Ordered food that I would not normally have ordered and it was delicious.

Delicious tapas! Recommend the cocktails and seafood platter

Food was amazing. Tasty, well cooked and generous portions. Atmosphere was also good and service was spot on. Will come back and recommend to my friends.

I went for a dinner with my friends and we all loved the food! The place is beautiful, the food is tasty and well served ! The waiters and the service was amazing !!definitely coming back 😃

Immaculate, friendly, good service, great food. Definitely recommend

I've enjoyed everything. Nice staff, good food (enough as well), good location and pleasant ambiance.... What's not to like

Excellent food and service, would highly recommend. Came for a friend's birthday, table of 8, and was well looked after.

Incredible food, great service and lovely atmosphere. My son and I ordered tapas, my husband ordered steak and my daughter ordered from the kids menu - but ate our food instead! I particularly enjoyed the seafood dishes. We’ll definitely be back!

Great new Tapas bar. Saturday night with wife and friends really enjoyed the evening

The service at Rustiq deserves special recognition. The staff was attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about their craft.

Nice surroundings but very poor food. Camembert arrived cold and not melted. Burratta salad was mozzarella and not Burratta Musells we’re re heated. We did express our complaints which went unheard. I really don’t see the point in asking how the food was when your not really interested. £61 for re heated food isn’t my kind of lunch I’m afraid.
