Bread and leek butter
Ali W.

We had a wonderful time at Gusto! I was actually thoroughly impressed with everything. They have a good happy hour. The house wines are okay but not spectacular if you know wine (to be expected for $9) but their Sangiovese was divine ($18). All the food was delicious. We got the Wagyu meatballs on happy hour, the bread and leek butter was insane! I'd eat that butter with a spoon. And the margarita pizza had fresh mozzarella and was so yummy and also on happy hour. I've been before and only got the cesear salad which I didn't prefer because the candied lemon was odd but I have a whole new perspective with this round of food! Really delicious. Service was great! No complaints. Also love that it's on kind! It did fill up quickly but we were a walk in at 5:30PM and it was fine

The gluten free pizza is... Fire. Lit. Bomb. Dank. You will dig it. Socks? Gonna be blasted.

Rigatoni Buttera
Mae M.

Found this casual Italian spot thanks to Google Maps lol. It was not too far from my hotel so I decided to check it out with my husband. We split the Wagyu Meatballs, Caesar Salad, Rigatoni, and Olive Oil Cake. We were pretty hungry and were happy with the amount of food we had. The Meatballs and Rigatoni were really good and I definitely recommend those! The Olive Oil Cake was more on the interesting side for me. It had candied olives on top which weren't my personal favorite but the cake itself was good. Service was on the slower side the whole night and it felt like our waitress was actively trying to avoid eye contact with us.

Happy hour items

This place really surprised me! Stopped by during happy hour after walking sloans and the location is perfect! It was a party of 3 and we got the house salad, meatballs, focaccia and margarita pizza and they were all so delicious! They came out quick and the plates were delicious! We got to sit in their outside area which was also a plus! I totally recommend this place and will be coming back to try their pastas that I heard are great!

Margherita pizza
Lauren K.

Great modern Italian date night spot next to the lake. Small interior but has both bar and table seats, and outdoor seats as well. Friendly service. Food: 1. Focaccia appetizer $9- probably the best I've ever had, with some sort of garlic pesto butter 2. Margherita pizza $19- great, crust was thin enough to be crispy but not so thin that it gets soggy in the middle and droops when you try to hold it 3. Rigatoni bolognese $27- also solid, liked the fresh Parmesan touch Reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 is solely price. Pizza and app felt fair but the pasta price seemed too much. Don't think we'd order pasta if we came again. But overall enjoyed the food, very tasty!

We went for happy hour and worked our way through the menu! We were seated quickly at the bar and greeted by 2 friendly servers. We started with a Negroni and aperol spritz and were satisfied. All of the food was delicious and felt upscale without being too fancy- we had the meatballs, Caesar salad and polenta fries and the sauces that accompanied each dish were a highlight! Tiramisu for dessert was perfectly light and fluffy, not too sweet!

Wagyu beef meatball
Lianna B.

I had the loveliest experience here for happy hour this weekend for my friend's birthday! They only serve their happy hour menu during those hours so it is a more limited menu but it had everything we wanted at great prices. We got the Amalfi pie (lemon confit, ricotta and Calabrian chili) for $16 and it was such a unique pie. We also got their anchovy Caesar and wagyu meatballs (with pesto and ricotta) for $9 each and they just have been the best meatballs I have ever had and served with a delicious toast. They also brought my friend a free lemoncello shot for her birthday with a candle which was really sweet The service was that of an upscale restaurant and the restaurant was small but very pretty. Free street parking along the streets

AMALFI PIE
Kathleen N.

Gusto is next door to their sister restaurant Cholon which I thought was interesting as we were seated on the Cholon restaurant side. Our server was very friendly and helpful in helping us choose wine and food. We started with the burrata with an order of focaccia and waygu beef meatballs. I would 100% recommend the focaccia and burrata, and can go without the meatballs. The burrata was so good and had grapes which made this dish unique! The meatballs were okay, with it being waygu I thought it would be better. We also shared the lasagna, gnocchi, rigatoni, and the amalfi pie. My favorite was the lasagna and the pie. I was not expecting to like the lasagna as much as I did! It's very different from what I'm use to but in a good way! The amalfi pie was so interesting but so flavorful and unique that it was good, I've never had lemons on my pizza but it's a must try! The other pastas were good but the gnocchi was very rich, I was only able to take a couple bites. The rigatoni was okay, the pasta noodle to me was harder than I would like and could have used more flavor. Overall this place was very good!

Lasagna special
Kasia W.

It was good. Previous time I came it was phenomenal. This time the service wasn't as great, unfortunately they were out of one of the dishes we wanted and were very strict with protein add ons. With such limited menu options it would be nice to be able to add chicken, steak or shrimp to a Caesar salad or pasta. Sitting at the bar an hour before closing wasn't as pleasant with the people behind the bar talking about closing and "getting out of here" but maybe that just comes with bar seating. When we ordered we were told not to worry and that our appetizer and main courses would be spaced out but we got served our main about 5 minutes after we received the appetizer while we still weren't finished. Overall the food was good. Lasagna was a bit too lemony and tart for my liking but could be someone else's cup of tea. The rigatoni was good but the pasta was pretty al dente. The meatballs were very good. It felt a bit more like a stop in after work to just get a quick bite and get out rather than the sit in exclusive dining experience I had the last time. For $100 for 2 people I would say it's only worth it if you have a table reserved. Big pro that I have to give them though is they are very responsive on the phone which is nice if you have questions on wait time etc

Amalfi pie - fan fave
Sofia L.

Love this place! My fav dish the the Amalfi pie, get it every time. If, you haven't been I recommend checking it out. The inside is cute and small with a large patio for the summer. Also has a great happy hour. Connected to Cholon too, same owners, so you can go between the two and get some soup dumplings next door :)

This place rocks. From the moment we walked in, our server was there, helping us with drinks and making suggestions. Food was amazing, satisfying, beautifully presented and delicious. Started with a perfect Negroni, then moved to focaccia and burrata. The focaccia melts in your mouth and the herb butter, makes it even better. Frito Misto was delicious, crispy, tender and also a great starter. The goat cheese ravioli superb. The highlight for me was the (abundant) sausage Bolognese. Wow. Pizza's are a must try here. The CRUST is the best around. Very good Italian wine selection. Parking is tough in this neighborhood. Can't wait to return.

Carbonara pizza
Will S.

Wow!!! Super super super happy we found this spot! It's pretty small, has an intimate feel and is a great spot for a date night! It was "fine dining" I would say, but I really appreciated the space our server gave us. He was extremely nice but didn't overstep, offered suggestions and was very quick! We had reservations at 5:15, got there at 5:10 and had time before happy hour ended at 5:30 to order a glass of wine. Our server came back at 5:36 and said "last call for happy hour if you want to put another glass in" this was genuinely the first time I've ever had at a place do that and it was so nice. We were past the "time" for happy hour but he offered us another opportunity to put another glass of wine in! So nice! We got the meatballs, the Gorgonzola gnocchi and the carbonara pizza. The food was paced out and it was amazing. The meatballs were so flavorful and would definitely get them again. The gnocchi was so so so rich and tasty. The pears and walnuts/pecans were a great addition! The gnocchi was cooked perfectly and had an amazing Gorgonzola cheesy sauce. The carbonara pizza is wild! Genuinely haven't had anything like it! The egg yolk was soooo delicious and the crust was so fluffy and delicious! They brought out complimentary limoncello shot that was one of the best I've had!! Will be back for sure!

A MUST-VISIT PIZZA JOINT!…read more What an absolute gem! This place has it ALL! The pizza is fantastic, the atmosphere is welcoming, and the service makes you feel right at home. The full bar is a great bonus, and the clean bathrooms show they take pride in every part of their establishment. Everything is well-maintained, the vibe is great, and it's the kind of place you want to keep coming back to. Whether you're stopping in for a delicious pizza, grabbing a drink at the bar, or enjoying a night out with friends and family, this place checks all the boxes! Great food, great drinks, great atmosphere, and an all-around great joint! Mouse was our server she was amazing, when you go in, tell her you saw this review. Morgan, Thomas, Alex, Murphy and Andy was the staff working today. Alex was the pizza dough thrower, that's something to see. Highly recommend! Do yourself a favor and check this place out. You won't be disappointed!

There wasn't anything particularly wrong with the service--it was fine, and we had no complaints there. We ordered the Marky-Marg pizza, and the pizza itself was really good. The toppings, sauce, and flavor were all enjoyable. Unfortunately, the crust was extremely burnt around the edges. It was so overcooked that neither of us could eat it, which was disappointing since a good crust is part of what makes a great pizza. The pizza had a lot of potential, and if the crust hadn't been so burnt, it would have been a much better experience. We'd be willing to give it another try in the future and hope it was just an off day.

There were plenty of seats and it was clean. Even the bathrooms were clean. It wasn't super busy on a weekday morning. We walked around to see what they had and it was a breakfast spot, pizza, bakery, seafood, chocolate and coffee. I wasn't sure what the other one was in the corner but it didn't look interesting (I think sandwiches). I did wish they had something Asian like a ramen spot or even a pho spot but nothing. We ordered a breakfast sandwich called the Thunderbird at Call Your Mother. It was about $11. It was made fresh and it was super duper hot that we waited for a bit for it to be warm in order to eat it. The egg was fluffy, the sausage was filling and the cheese was melty. The only complaint I had was it was a little too sweet for me. It has honey and I guess I should have asked if it could be on the side. It really needed the hot sauce and it made it better. The other item we ordered was a ham and cheese croissant at Izzio Bakery. I think that's what it's called. They heated it up for me and it was about $8 after tax and tip. It was so good warmed up. The cheese was gooey and it was the right amount of salty goodness. The hubs and I kinda fought for the last bite. Would definitely would like to try other items from there next time we are in town. We would return but wished there was a noodle spot and it would make it so much better.

My son-in-law was happy about that. Now for the reason I won't be back. You order from the counter, which is fine. The thing that put me off was that they charge extra to use your credit card. Yes I know credit cards charge them and they want their customers to pay for that. (Shame on credit card companies!). But our order came to close to $100.00 and who carries that much cash? So that brought up the total. Then of course tip on top of that. No service to speak of except somebody physically carrying the food to the table. No checking back. Three of us ordered eggplant parm with spaghetti. It came with generous portions in two separate dishes. The pasta had a grainy texture that I didn't enjoy. The sauce needed to be brighter. The eggplant was almost too salty to eat. I just didn't enjoy my meal. A dry slice of bread (no butter) came on the plate too. I sopped up some sauce with it but it wasn't quality bread. I guess I was put off by the extra charge for the credit card and from there it was downhill for me. The gluten free dish was the best one, I guess. It was carbonara with penne pasta.

I have driven by this place probably 200 times in my life and never realized it was a restaurant…read more When I discovered that it was, I had to try it as I have lived not far for a long time (and on the west side of town my entire life) and never knew it existed.

The woman working the counter was extremely nice (and may or may not have paid for my Cannoli for it being my first visit. Immediately you see that they have baked goods in the display. They also have other treats like pasta salad an soda. they also sell pasta sauce and fresh baked bread. I went with the Meatball sub with cheese peppers which was fantastic. It came with Lay's potato chips, and I had a can of coke with it. I also got a slice of the banana bread which didn't last long. This place was great. A hidden gem. Simple but delicious food. A local secret of simplicity and great food. You can't really beat a place like this, and I am glad I found it. Speaking of finding it, may I recommend some additional signage? I mean it when I say I have driven this section of Marshall hundred of times in my life and had not idea this place was even a restaurant. Parking is a little weird. Plenty of it, but no stripes in the lot so you sorta have to figure it out. Not a big deal, but worth mentioning. Anyway, great place! 5 -stars!
