Gusto Restaurant & Bar in Edinburgh, City of

Alexandra was our server and she was fantastic!

Alexandra was amazing … good service and very attentive …

Food was great. Simon was our waiter. Excellent service explaining the different dishes and helping us choose what we wanted. Will definitely come up.

The food was delicious! We made a reservation and were seated immediately upon arrival. The restaurant is beautiful, very clean and welcoming. My husband had the pork cutlet and I had the lasagna. Both were absolutely delicious. Alexandra was absolutely amazing! Best waitress in Edinburgh!

Danielle was great and suggested living through a healthy diet of haggis. Honestly, she was nothing short of amazing with an amazing sense of humor.

Simon was so lovely and welcoming! Thoroughly enjoyed our meal.

Airlie was an amazing host! Thanks!!

Very disappointed with our recent visit. It was not the Gusto I expected. The staff were not interested or even friendly ( with one exception) , the food was well below par , the garlic bread was not the one what we ordered but waiter apologised downstairs . On going upstairs the child’s fish batter was hard my granddaughter couldn’t eat it ,the chips tasteless , carbonara was very dry and far too peppery . The coffee order came with only one coffee and no milk for the tea!! Even when the waiter cleared the table and half the food was uneaten he did not ask if anything was wrong with the food which made me think it was a normal situation and yes we could have complained but felt it would have fell on deaf ears with the couldn’t be bothered attitude we were experiencing.

We went for dinner for my hen party and I felt so special. Our server Megan was incredibly attentive and gave such exceptional customer service and genuine care and interest in my wedding day and making sure I had all the drinks I needed. Couldn’t have any better customer service, food was really tasty and will be coming back here as soon as I return to Edinburgh on my holidays. The cocktails were really good I had the lychee martini. Thank you so much to the staff and recognition to Megan. They made my evening so special and memorable.

We came here to celeb rate a friends hen do and we were pleasantly surprised by how great the food was, but Megan our server was the best part. She was super attentive, polite and incredibly friendly and nothing was too much trouble. 10/10- thank you Megan :)

Our experience was fantastic. Danielle offered very friendly and attentive service and the food was delicious.

Lovely spot for dinner - the saffron shrimp risotto was amazing! Our server Farrell was so kind.

An early sunny evening sitting outside Gusto. Such good food, atmosphere and excellent waiter service. I had a pulled pork pasta with fennell, chilli and shallots. Highly recommend.

Great pizza and lovely service by Danielle!

Good food and Meghan was a lovely server!

We had a very great night at Gusto. The food was lovely and the waiters Maddy and Simon made it a memorable experience.

Lovely food and Meghan was great!

Very tasty tuna, all other dishes also very good. Cheers!

Great meal! Simao and Maddie were great. Thank you very much.

Good food. They have a gluten free menu The service was excellent and our host Danielle was above expectations.

Lovely food, lovely atmosphere. Danielle our waitress could not do enough for us. Highly recommend.

Great lunch … attentive service from Kris and rest of the team.

good food! great food if i’m being honest our server was great cheers

They were kind to replace my pork dish which smelled off .

Aside from the food, Danielle was very warm and lovely serving the food! Superb service and food. Will recommend Gusto! 💯

Very nice decoration. Good food. They served us quickly and well even though we didn't have a reservation. We didn't like the desserts very much, but they were not generous.

I visited gusto with my 9 year old daughter. We were so over the moon with the food and service, my daughter especially wanted to write a review for our server Airlie and here it is: 5 stars 🌟 We had an incredible time with exellent service and amazing food! It was a very warm welcome and the place is decorated lovely :) Extreamly nice staff, we highly recommend🤍We were served by Airlie who was incredibly friendly and kind 😊

Choose Gusto for a birthday lunch for my 17 old niece as she wanted pasta and the reviews were glowing. It did not disappoint. The arribiata and Ragu were both delicious, as was the mozzarella garlic bread pizza. The atmosphere and the decor were fab and the waiter (can't remember his name) was lovely. Will definitely be back to try the rest of the menu.

Had a lovely evening catching up why friends; we received great service

Gusto gave me and my friends a great night. Simon our serves was fantastic

Beautiful food as usual ! Megan was amazing and couldn’t go enough for us ! She was so pleasent and helpful! Not a single complaint ! Thank you so much

Lovely interiors and staff were superb - attentive and efficient. A slight improvement on the food and I would have rated a 5* overall. Nice birthday cake for the 5 year old was nicely presented 😀

Food and service was just what we needed for the family.

Great food and amazing service by Simao 🙌🙌💯

The food was incredible. Very nice atmosphere. Farrel was an incredible server, very attentive & gave great food recommendations. 10/10!

Lovely food, great atmosphere and our server Simon gave great recommendations! Excellent experience

Love this Gusto, the food and service were excellent.

Great food, great wine, great service! Thank you Simao!

Nice quiet place for food. Thanks Kristian for the service.

The restaurant was amazing and the food was really tasty. Staff were extremely polite, especially Danielle. She was really helpful and kind, always making sure that we had the best experience.

Absolutely brilliant night out with my wife, fantastic food (great pizza in particular) and really friendly service. We got served by Kris and Madi, who were both great. Super friendly, always on hand when the drinks got low and they both contributed to a really welcoming atmosphere. Will definitely be back.

Amazing service and atmosphere, all the staff was very friendly. We tried the caprino pizza and the lasagna and both were good.

Great service by Kris & Madi, thank you, enjoyed our night!

Chilled atmosphere, excellent service. The food was very good, highly recommend

Thoroughly enjoyable meal. Kudos to Kris, whose service was excellent.

Had a great time with superb service from Krisztian

Meghan wa the most amazing, friendly server

The food was amazing and Krisztian was really helpful and super friendly! Can really recommend :)

Service was amazing! Simon was our server and took care of the dinner at every level. Food and food suggestions were also on point. the unique improvement I would suggest would be on the Bruschetta.

I ordered crab linguine. The portion was small and pretty tasteless so I thought I would give dessert a try so I ordered pistachio creme brûlée just to see if it would make up to my first experience. Sadly it didn’t. Don’t think I would return. Atmosphere was good and the young waiter was friendly and attentive.

Went our first night in Edinburgh and it was great! Kriztian was a great waiter, took our allergies into account, and the food was delicious. Highly recommend the bruschetta and pastas.

Excellent place and service too notch. Simon was an excellent host. Steak was a bit under par so was taken offf the bill . Thank you. But would highly recommend this place.

Amazing food. Amazing service. Came here with my parents and we all had a good time. Special thanks to Simon who looked after us

Este restaurante era un hallazgo absolutamente de primera categoría. Visité para una pizza auténtica y no fue decepcionado, la comida era increíble de principio a fin y las pizzas eran frescas y sabrosas y genuinamente estilo italiano El servicio fue fantástico y no podía culpar a ningún miembro del equipo en absoluto. El ambiente y la decoración también eran geniales y te hicieron sentir que estabas en un establecimiento de clase muy alta, sin embargo, esto no se reflejó en el precio de la comida, que era muy razonable de hecho. Sin duda recomendaría y sin duda volvería a visitar

Great night, very well looked after by Reece and Chris. 8 of us, fussy, loud and demanding but service was excellent. Food was great, thank you Gusto!

Used to eat here a few time a week, years ago, and having not been in over a year I have to say I wasn’t disappointed. Simon was excellent as were his colleagues who looked after us from the second we arrived. The menu is refreshed and the food is still excellent. Highly recommend, especially if you’ve not been in a while.

Excellent meal! The Hummous and homemade crackers were great. The chicken was grilled perfectly - was crispy on the outside and moist on the inside. And the tiramisu was one of the best I’ve ever had. Our service by Pharrell was incredible.

Very good place! Simão is an excellent professional!

El restaurante en sí tiene un ambiente muy agradable. Nuestro primer servidor era amable y acogedor, así que más allá. Entonces empezaron nuestros problemas. Pedí una variedad de entrantes que llegaron bien y luego a mitad de ellos apareció otro servidor con nuestros platos principales (toda la pasta). Le dijo que no habíamos terminado los entrantes (claramente visibles para ella) y a regañadientes se ofreció a llevarlos de vuelta a la cocina. Le dije que los pusiera sobre la mesa, pero al probarlos estaban todos fríos. Los envié de vuelta y 15 minutos más tarde me dieron unos frescos. No hay oferta de parmesano, no se ofrece ningún utensilio para repartir los lados de la ensalada y trozos de concha de cangrejo en la lingüina. Nos dieron una botella de vino gratis, pero habría preferido una comida muy agradable con la familia

We booked for my daughters 18th in February, I was very anxious as it was a large party (27 guests) and I had been left feeling like a nuisance when trying to book with another restaurant. Someone recommended Gousto, it was night and day from the minute I called I was welcomed. Nothing was a bother, the girl I spoke to Emma was making me feel very excited about it. I was still worried about how the evening would go with such a lot of people but the staff and atmosphere was 100% it was such a brilliant night and my Daughter enjoyed her 18th there. I have sung Goustos praises to all my clients. Well done, and thank you for all the help and to all the friendly staff xxx

Waiter, Simon, gave great service. Would always come back.

Drinks and dough balls and Aranchini were really good. Friendly staff. Nice setting

A little bit of sun in Edinburgh & your staff think it's appropriate to leave the main door wide open. It's absolutely baltic in here. Complained we are cold & got moved upstairs which is also absolutely baltic. It's now 6.20pm, the main door is still wide open & surely everyone in here is frozen. Absolutely ridiculous.

reece was an excellent server, very quick service

Our waitress Danielle was incredible, attentive and sooo personable. She really made a difference to our experience at the restaurant

Took a friend here for lunch …. The place was freezing cold, no other diners and the pasta has to be the worst I have ever had. It was so hard and dry. Not a good carbonara. Definitely won’t be back.

Shoutout to madi for making our experience amazing! Brilliant service and lovely manner x

Amazing service, good atmosphere and all the staff were lovely and friendly. Especially Madi and Ferrell.

Gusto is absolutely great. The food is top quality, the atmosphere is cool, the music is suave and the service is efficient. Our server Reece was fantastic.

Great food. The scallop ravioli is amazing. Along with the toffee apple rum. Simao was a great server and freindly and tenetive.

Danielle was absolutely the most welcoming and very friendly. Was an absolute pleasure to be served by her.

Great experience, food was delicious! Friendly staff

Had a group meal for a birthday, we got charged for tap water, then got "here's a special treat cos its your birthday " never ordered it, then it got added to the bill.. water Is FREE!

Good food and menu goes a bit beyond the basic Italian. Quite expensive but that's a result of the location.

Simon was great!! He recommend the Hugo spritz and loved them and the food!

We were in Edinburgh for a few days and happened upon Gusto. It was fab! Amazing food, lovely atmosphere and super helpful staff! Highly recommend!

Walked by Guato and was drawn in with its beautiful atmosphere. The sourdough pizza sealed the deal for me! The stag was extremely nice and helpful. Would definitely eat here again!

We had another really superb meal at Gustos Edinburgh our waitress Alexandra was super helpful

Almuerzo de trabajo, el servicio fue ejemplar, gran ambiente. La comida tardó un poco de tiempo en servirse, 3 de 4 comidas eran muy buenas, pero una pizza estaba un poco hecha, el personal rectificó la situación bien. No dudaría en recomendar.

Never disappointed with a visit to gusto, and tonight was no different. Danielle made us feel very welcome and the service as always was first class. The food tonight was excellent, just what we needed after a trip to Murrayfield

Alexandra was the best! Couldn’t rate her service enough! Such an asset to the team. Will definitely be back to see her!!!

Popped into restaurant primarily to kill time while in Edinburgh for an early evening meeting. Had a lovely late lunch in an impeccable restaurant with very professional and attentive service!

Fabulous authentic Italian food

Simon really looked after us and our lunch was delicious. Thank you

the service was smiley, the atmosphere was great and the food portions were ginormous. We did go as a part of company meal and had pre ordered from a set menu. The Margarita was yum and authentic enough, so well done to the bartender.

Danielle was so nice, she was so kind and we felt very comfortable in the restaurant deffo recommend a wee visit. X

The fillet was cooked to perfection and the service from our waiter was exceptional. All round one of the best dining experiences I've had in a while. ( I'm a chef and hard to please so thank you very much)

A very cool looking restaurant with unreasonable prices for the portions of the food. (Avoid the tiny lasagna if you are actually hungry. You'll leave as hungry as the moment you entered the restaurant).

Excellent food, the pizza was great as was the salad. The waiter Simão was very friendly and attentive, great service!!!

Simon was a gent he served us amazing thank you so much Simon for making this meal and trip so special we will be back

Fantastic food, great service by Airlie. Return visit and still the same great restaurant we remember from 12 years ago.

Amazing service, We had Danielle as a server as she was lovely and attentive. Had a great time only downside was with it being a saturday night it was very loud and hard to hear the servers and ourselves without being over the table. Can’t be helped that it’s a hot spot, Food was spot on just very filling.

Service was great!!! Airlie was the best waitress we’ve had in our whole trip. She was kind and always making sure we were ok. Thanks Airlie!!!!

Second visit to Gustos Edinburgh - booked 6 months in advance after our first fabulous visit and we were not disappointed. Stunning bruschetta, focaccia and pizza (which they kindly customised to our taste). The biscoff martini for pudding was excellent 😁 Will be booking again for our next theatre trip 😁

bartender Daniil, took good care of me!

Danielle did such an amazing job taking care of us! It was my birthday and I'm terrible at making decisions and she was so incredibly helpful and attentive, and her suggestions were very on point. We had the garlic and rosemary focaccia to start, which was great, and then the lasagna, which was super rich, and would mushroom risotto, which was exactly what I was looking for and incredibly delicious. Highly recommend!

Reece (server) Service was above and beyond, great service, charismatic and overall great guy. We visit Gusto alot at Cheadle Hulme branch but would come back to visit for Reeve alone. 👌

Very nice food, portions where larger than I expected

This was a gift experience present that was given to us for Christmas. Let me just say, the whole visit from start to finish was superb. Friendly, chatty, shown quick to our table, lovely smiles from all the staff. I would recommend this establishment wholeheartedly. This was our first visit and will definately be back again. The food was delicious. And I'm fussy !!!!! Wonderful. Can I mention Alexandra especially. She was lovely and made our night lovely. A credit to the company.

I have celiac and they did an amazing job. I came 2 nights in a row, 1 for pizza 1 for pasta I’d recommend
