About this restaurant

Neighbourhood gem
Good for special occasions
Good for groups

Pizzeria Gusto is an extension of my dinner table, where friends, family and loved ones gather together to share conversation, laughter, food and wine. The aromas and sounds are a constant reminder of centuries old Italian traditions, which instantly welcome you to the family.
We believe that pizza is the perfect food. A blank canvas that has unlimited possibilities in both taste and texture. By using fresh local produce and authentic Italian ingredients your experience will surely have you saying "Bellissimo"!
Our wood burning oven comes from Reggelo, 20 km from Florence. The Valoriani oven is hand crafted by a family of artisans that has been perfecting their skills for 5 generations. Its domed brick roof and 650 degree temperature is the perfect vessel for creating the perfect pizza.

As usual, we had a lovely evening out at Pizzeria Gusto. It never disappoints. There were new and interesting items on the menu. The roasted pork belly with honey rhubarb glaze and roasted basil corn was delicious. Thanks for another exceptional night out :)

Hadn't been to Gusto in a long time. The ambience is great mixing a casual contemporary look with the old world importance of family theme. Food quality was outstanding with the freshness and flavours. Our selections were very innovative (Caprese d'Estate, Regina Egitto & Canto di Gallo) and there were many other really interesting sounding choices across the menu. It was quite busy (and loud) and our order of 2 pizzas was surprisingly slow to come. When it did arrive our server was extremely apologetic and professional explaining why our wait time was so much longer than usual and within their standards of service. The manner in which she and the establishment took care of us this night was very commendable. We will definitely return.

Margherita pizza: very good. Sylvia pizza: delicious. Tramonto: delicious and served pipping hot, just the way I like it. We had requested the patio but it was so hot; the staff gladly accommodated our request for an inside table. The reason for the low rating on ambience was because of the loud talkers one table over....they made it difficult for us to have a conversation. The food is consistently good here and we look forward to returning and enjoying the patio. Thanks!

The food was excellent. Highly recommend the pizza and the burrata salad. The room is a bit cavernous and echo-y but this was admittedly during a later lunch with not too many people around. I would recommend giving it a try.

My friend ordered a gluten free crust. She is celiac. When she got halfway through the pizza, she remembered from a previous visit that their gluten free crust was very good, but was suspicious as the crust was almost TOO good. Fast forward, and she is deathly ill. The crust she was served was not gluten free. There were other issues with service also, normally I would not leave a negative review, however serving a celiac gluten is egregious.
