My Italian colleague loves this place. It goes without saying that he loves the food. Gustatio is small and their menu is limited. Because the space is small, you absolutely have to make a reservation. I went on a Sunday afternoon, almost right when they opened, and I didn't have a reservation. They offered me a table outside. The table still had cigarette dust on it. The menu is short but representative of Italian cuisine. I think I ordered the wrong thing because I didn't find it spectacular. My Italian colleague advised that the Roman dishes are the best. If you need authentic Italian food in Groningen, go to Gustatio. If you go to Gustatio, make a reservation! read more

Atmosphere: 5/5 Cozy and intimate dining room with about 10 tables. The atmosphere is unassuming, serving as the perfect backdrop for a superb meal Food: 5/5 The food was striking. The flavors were masterfully tuned into a rich and beautiful medley. I ordered the daily special, pappardelle with boar - A M A Z I N G! Service: 5/5 The service was impressive. One person was taking care of the entire front of house and she deserves an award. She did everything, from checking vaccination cards, assigning tables, taking food orders, delivering food, busing tables and more. She did all with gusto and a radiant smile read more

Gustatio - Italian Great find thanks to Trip Advisor...now addd to YELP for us Americans. The restaurant is owned and run by two brothers from Rome. It's very small and cozy with about 10 tables. You will need reservations for dinner. Open 7 days a week for lunch and dinner. Delightful menu with a nice variety of pasta dishes. Amazing starters. Simple wine list as well as beer and cocktails available. Ordered take out dinner here last night (they were too busy to dine in) and came back for an early dinner today. I highly recommend coming here for dinner and then hitting the Drie Gezusters outdoor cafe tables for drinks. read more

Had a lunch over here, and it was quite okay. Had a risotto and it was delicious! Unfortunately I have no pics read more

The owner is rude and arrogant. The food is overrated. I dont recommend wasting your money here

This is one of my all-time favorite pasta places. Every time I visit Gronigen this is my first and last meal. The pasta is all incredibly fresh. The mixture of classic pasta dishes and unique recipes accommodates any pasta-lover. The fresh stuffed pastas are particularly delicious. The atmosphere is semi-casual and inviting. The small space gives gustatio a homely feel. The owner and staff are incredibly friendly and personable. I remember first going to gustatio 2 years ago and being the only person in the restaurant; now it is almost difficult to get a reservation at an ideal time! Bottom line: gustatio is the real deal. Competes with the best pasta places across Europe (Italy) and America (New York). Wishing the restaurant success in the future! read more

Very high on the top ten of my favourite Italian restaurants. It easily competes with great restaurants in Italy. Great food and good selection of wines. Note that you will likely need to reserve if you are going for dinner read more

What an amazing restaurant at great prices. Competitive with some of the best pastas I've had in Italy. Also, their desert the Tortino is not to be missed! read more
