Restaurant of the Week

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Sonoma chapter.

Located in the heart of Santa Rosa, tucked away in an industrial setting is a little Pizzeria owned by a small Italian family. Cibo Rustico brings in young and old crowds from all over to taste their amazing thin crust creations. You can find this gem tucked away off of Cleveland Ave and Ridgway Drive near Fogbelt Brewing Company.

 

The D’Argenzio family started out in Santa Rosa as cabinet makers in this location. During these years they were also making wine on the side as a hobby. In 1994 they decided to make wine full time and convert the wood shop into a tasting room for their winery. Several years ago they opened Cibo Rustico across the street from the tasting room. If you stop by the tasting room for some wine you can also order off of the restaurant menu.

 

 

Each ingredient is listed on the menu so you know exactly what you are going to get. Simple, fresh ingredients are used every time for the best tasting pizza in Sonoma County. Using a wood fire oven gives each pizza a unique smokey flavor with ingredients that melt right into the crust. Each pizza is about 10-12 inches in diameter and only sold as whole pizzas, no individual slices available. The prices range from $14-$18 for a whole pizza. One pizza can easily be devoured by an individual, or shared among friends.

 

They have pizza for the whole family. Simple and magnificent margarita pizza, truffle pizza, pesto, sausage and more. You can also order appetizers and salads which are also to die for. They serve wine and beer at Cibo so there’s something for everyone to enjoy. Visit Cibo Rustico for the best wood fire pizza in Sonoma County at 1305 Cleveland Ave in Santa Rosa. This authentic Italian pizza will have you coming back for more.
