Ristorante Caffe' Gustami in Birmingham

Amazing food at a fantastic price!!

Great food and service! I love this place! They have fresh pasta 😋🍝

Sooo beautiful, food was amazing and service was great. Can't believe its not more full than it was. What a hidden gem xx

Lovely 100% authentic Italian restaurant! Highly recommend, like home-made food. The staff is lovely and make you feel at home.

Seriously this is the best authentic Italian food in the whole of UK, this is a real hidden gem, my partner and I ordered 3 different pastas and they were all very fresh and tasty dishes. 5 stars all around will definitely be back.

The most stunning meal with the best service! We had calamari for starters, carbonara and spaghetti and meatballs for mains with cheesy garlic bread on the side. It was hard to choose on the menu because everything sounded delicious!

This place is a hidden gem. Oh my goodness. If you're in Birmingham, PLEASE try this restaurant! Undoubtedly the BEST Italian restaurant in Birmingham. I cannot stress this enough! PLEASE TRY THIS PLACE!!! Do not be deceived by the location. The dine-in is simply superb. The specials are so good and the wine is delicious. The staff are friendly and very welcoming!

Outstanding authentic food! 👏 Nothing else to say!

Nice little Italian restaurant just like back home in Italy. The waitress really made us feel at home the food was delicious and fresh and authentic which is amazing. If you are looking for an authentic Italian restaurant gustami is the place ! And the food is super affordable. I had two starters a main and dessert for £30 ! Do not walk run !

Fantastic little independent Italian restaurant. Good service, great authentic Italian food and a cosy atmosphere. The tiramisu is highly recommended. A true hidden gem.

Amazing authentic food! Brilliant and very cosy atmosphere! Christiana was superb. Overall great experience!

This is the best Italian meal I have ever had. A hidden gem. Would highly recommend to anyone who is passing by. Will come back again for sure.

So amazing, lovely little authentic Italian restaurant. The service was so good, I can’t wait to come back again! Better Italian food than I had when I visited Italy. So so good 😊 🍝

Gustamis is a hidden gem in Birmingham. They’ve now opened up an outdoor area and it’s the most perfect restaurant! Authentic Italian good, great service and atmosphere.

Really the place shocked me 😅 the food and service really amazing

The restaurant itself is fabulous and the food was very very nice as were the staff. But what gives this place extra points is that it's in the least likely place you'd expect to find fine dining. So not only was it brilliant but it was a nice shock too

What a fabulous restaurant! It's definitely worth seeking out if you are in or near the area. The food is amazing & authentic, and it is very reasonably priced too. We had the vegetable platter for 2 from the Antipasti section, it was £20 but my goodness it was absolutely massive, you could share it as a whole meal for 2! We then had the Mezzaluna Funghi from the specials menu and the Parmigiana from the Secundi section and both were absolutely phenomenal and around £11 each. Our friend had the Homemade spinach & ricotta Tortellini with butter & sage sauce and would highly recommend that also. You can't beat homemade pasta! The wine was nice and very reasonably priced at £20 a bottle for wine and £25 for prosecco. The service was excellent, very relaxed and friendly. And with the weather at the moment being very warm we could almost believe we were in a cafe in Italy! Overall we were super impressed with this hidden gem of an Italian cafe, and would definitely go back!

The general location and external environment doesn't match up to the quality of the food, Very Authentic Italian.👍

Great experience, food made at the moment and super homemade, with lots of flavor. Excellent service, thanks to the lady who served us, and the cook came to ask us if the food was good. Desserts also include Italian casseroles and tipucas, turamisu and pannacota. The tiramisu is top!!! It's worth the walk outside the city center.

Received a few recommendations for this restaurant so booked in for early Saturday evening. It felt very authenticly Italian and was already busy with diners. My only criticism is that it isn't in the greatest of areas and parking was difficult. However the food and service was fantastic, and the best Italian I've eaten in the UK. There was a good choice of food and a large specials board. The tiramisu was exceptional! Will definitely be returning and supporting this great independent restaurant!

We were recommended by a friend and the place did not disappoint. It's a simple place that makes you feel like you're in Italy when you walk in. The food is very tasty, it was a great experience. We ordered a risotto, pizza and pasta and all were excellent. We will definitely be back soon.

Every now and then you come across a true hidden gem. We're not from Birmingham but were there for an event at the Utilita Arena. We originally tried to book Zizzi, Pizza Express etc. but they were all full on short notice, so I found Ristorante Caffe Gustami on Google Maps and was able to book a table online. The owner, Raffaele, even sent me a personal text message to confirm our booking which was a nice touch. The food was superb - we had the sharing pizza dough starter plus a couple of specials to start, then pizza and pasta for our main course, and coffee and ice cream for desserts. We also had beer and wine, so for the bill to come out at under £100 for the four of us was incredible value. The staff are super friendly and there's a nice atmosphere with some Italian music on and plenty of people came in without it ever getting too packed out. If you're going to the Utilita Arena for an event, this is only about a 10 minute walk away and is a great spot for some pre-gig food and drink!

Fantastic little Italian. Great place to eat before a show at the arena.

We ate an amazing pizza while our clothes dried next door at the fabulous Pablo's Laundry. Delicious food and wonderful, friendly atmosphere.

We found this restaurant by accident as staying near by. The food was exceptional and we enjoyed the specials on offer. A real Italian experience with the food. The wine was excellent as well. Certainly an excellent find.

I'm really happy to have found this wonderful place. It's a fairly short walk from the canal, ICC etc. Wonderful to be able to eat delicious home made authentic Italian food just a stones throw from the plethora of chain restaurants. Hospitality was warm and welcoming. I absolutely love Italian food and this place made me happy. Definitely returning!

No fine dining or inflated prices here. Just really good traditional Italian home cooked food. You’re here for the food - simples. Exceptional value for the quality. Loved it

Great Italian food, all freshly cooked including freshly prepared home made pasta and bread. Great value. A real 'local gem', the kind of which is increasingly hard to find.

Great friendly service, fantastic homemade food. A dinner for five of us that will be remembered for a long time. Stumbled on by chance and not disappointed.

We were craving Italian and found this little place in Birmingham and menu looked authentic. We checked it out and the small restaurant had the best vibes, super authentic, all the workers were Italian, and the specials sounded and tasted amazing. We got an appetizer, two pastas, tiramisu and a bottle of wine and digestive and were impressed with it all! The food was amazing!!! Super wholesome vibes and would definitely come back. Thank you!

Great food and amazing service, all 3 courses were exceptional… highly recommend ordering off the specials.

A gem of a place. Authentic food and superb service.

Wow, what more can I say!! Recommended from a Meetup group I brought my family here for a birthday meal and we were all really impressed The restaurant is small with only a handful of tables but the quality of the food and the service is second to none The staff apart from all being genuine Italian are excellent and nothing is too much trouble for them The food is just like the real thing and I have no hesitation in highly recommending this place

Cute little Italian restaurant with amazing food. The chef and staff are friendly and warm! Great place to eat. There are a few free parking spots just outside but if you're going after 7.30 pm, the streets have free parking. If you can't enter the clean air zone, then you can park for up to 3 hours at the big springhill tesco across the roundabout and walk over!

Probably the best restaurant in Birmingham. So understated but so incredibly good.. Everyone needs to experience this place - Italian food at its best. Service, quality and price - amazing.

What a gem of a place!!!visited on Wednesday evening the food was fabulous,service great friendly and go out of their way to make your visit exceptional.

Great food made to authentic recipes and very reasonably priced. A warm and welcoming atmosphere. Lovely. We'll definitely be going again.

Excellent service and food. Very good prices!!!

Definitely a look's can be deceiving place, look's just like a run of the mill cafe from the outside but once inside it's set out just like a restaurant. Staff were very welcoming. The food is AMAZING!! Will definitely visit again.

Absolutely brilliant Italian restaurant on the outer edge of the city centre. The staff make you feel so welcome and the food is fresh and delicious. We came as a group of nine for a birthday and had the best evening. Our waitress was attentive and friendly, she explained the specials (which are definitely worth having) and took care of us all evening. I don't think I've had food this good for such good value. Definitely recommend to anyone in Birmingham or beyond!

An amazing experience! It’s a short walk outside the main Birmingham City Centre but the atmosphere inside makes it well worth it. I went there for my birthday and despite calling several times to let them know I would be arriving late, they were nothing but accommodating. We arrived with a large group of people and they took a considerable amount of time to talk us through the chef's specials and even kindly helped with our Italian pronunciations. As if everything they had done so far wasn't enough, they even stayed open well past their closing time to provide us some delicious dessert. Amazing food, amazing prices and an even more amazing staff!!!

A great place and the food is exceptional reminds us of our visits to Italy. All home made food served in very pleasant surrounding by lovely staff. We love this place it’s a hidden gem.

An Italian run hidden gem on the outskirts of Birmingham City centre. I have been frequenting Gustami's for the past 6 years, and I can't say enough good things about it! The home cooked Italian food is absolutely amazing. My favourites are the homemade spinach and ricotta tortellini in sage butter, the blue cheese gnocchi the bruscetta pomadoro. They have a good menu of starters, salads, pastas, pizzas and meat dishes, and also offer around 6 chefs specials that change on a regular basis. They have a good range of wines to compliment your meal and a decent house red. The service is great and the staff are very friendly and often the chef will come to your table to ask if you enjoyed the food. The atmosphere is welcoming and non pretentious. The restaurant is also great value for money. If you are a fan of good Italian food in a relaxed environment, then I definitely recommend this restaurant.

We just got 2 pizzas for takeaway, oh my god they were so delicious. Proper dough and ingredients. Book a table and try them out, you will not regret it.

Fresh, authentic italian food at reasonable prices. One of my favourite restaurants in Brum.

Absolutely great! Best Italian food I've ever had and for the best prices! Definitely going again!

very good place, but most importantly the staff are amazing. notably giovanni vona is the best his a man of many talents his a maths genius, a pro boxer and a amazing chef, theres nothing this man can’t do if he had to he would save humanity alone.

Recommended by an acquaintance 18 months ago and we’ve been going back ever since. Excellent choice and quality, a friendly, relaxed atmosphere and great value.

Wonderful authentic Italian restaurant in Brum a short walk away from the Jewellery Quarter. Warm, friendly service, large portion sizes, and very reasonably priced. I'd highly recommend it.

Incredible authentic Italian food that is so reasonable. The staff are very attentive. This is one our favourite local independents

Incredible Food and the service was excellent as well!

Amazing food. Big portions and welcoming service. I'll be back for sure!

Assolutamente raccomandato! Profumi e sapori di casa, gentileza del personale e buona relazione quantità-qualità-prezzo. Seconda visita in breve tempo e confermo! Se non hai grande pretese del posto, ma vuoi sentirti come nella trattoria del tuo paese e mangiare bene, devi andare 👍

This place is a gem food is fantastic taste great good pricing served well freindly welcoming staff

Lugar sencillo, con aroma a fogones de casa, auténtica comida italiana y excelente relación calidad - precio - valor!

Gustami is by far and away the most authentic Italian restaurant in Birmingham. Excellent food, polite and knowledgeable staff and a fair price that doesn't break the bank.

Gustami is always an absolute treat. The specials are incredible whilst the everyday menu is gorgeous too. And the pizza! Go and enjoy superb service, authentic Italian food and imagine yourself in Italy.

Great atmosphere and staff tasty food and good value for money

This place is incredible. The food was made quickly and fresh, huge portion, amazing value for money and I’m truly happy to recommend and support going forward. A hidden gem in a big city, but one that doesn’t disappoint. The carbonara was out this world. I got delivery.

Excellent, kind, sensitive, warm and friendly service. Delicious home-made sausage with potatoes, followed by a generous portion of tiramisu. Will definitely visit again.

Very relaxed atmosphere. The food is authentic and tasty. The staff are very friendly. I've been twice already and will be back for sure.

We stopped by Ristorante Caffe Gustami for a quick lunch yesterday, on our way home from the jewellery quarter. It’s quite a distance for us and we tend to save our visit is here for special occasions, we hadn’t been for about 9 months. If it was closer, we would eat here every month as a treat! Two of us had parmigiana, it was clearly homemade and a taste sensation. The other two had options from the specials menu, one had a homemade sausage swirl with little roast potatoes and my husband had a penne pasta dish with saffron and courgettes-bother were absolutely delicious. Sadly, we didn’t have room for a desert after our fabulous main courses, however they all sound delicious! The ownership of the restaurant has changed ( the new owner actually used to work here), however the food is still exceptional and good value too. Looking forward to our new visit very soon.

We went there last night (party of 4) after a canal walk and had such a lovely evening. The staff were very warm, welcoming and attentive. The food was lovely and excellent value for money. Shame it’s not local to us as we would definitely make this a regular stop.

Lovely authentic Italian restaurant on my doorstep love it there very friendly rustic food well cooked would definitely recommend

One of the best Italian restaurants I've been to. Shame about the location. Never the less food speaks for it self. Would come again.

So much good attencion. Perfect food.

A hidden gem - I am surprised I have never come across it before. Great food, great staff,reasonably priced. I will be going back

Authentic Italian food and very decently priced.

New owners! Surprisingly even better than last! Absolutely amazing risotto and Superb Pizzas!! Omg and the calamari is soo good. Best i have ever had. Friendly, family run and authentic Italian. So reasonable priced as well. A must try!!

I highly recommend a visit here, especially if you enjoy great quality authentic Italian food. The service is superb, the atmosphere is very relaxed but most of all you'll eat great food.

Staff molto accogliente e simpatico, VERO cibo italiano cucinato con passione e tradizione.

Lovely food, nice wine and such a great service. I had tagliatelle al funghi which was perfectly cooked, Montepulciano wine and the best Tiramisu I have tried in Birmingham. Recommended

Such a great place, wonderful service, wonderful food. So cheap!

wonderfull people great food good price my 12yo daughter took 2 times carbonara because it was so good highly recomanded

Excellent food at reasonable price. 👍🏻

A lovely and underrated Italian restaurant, probably because it's not well-known, situated off the Ladywood Middleway; my second time here and the food is still very good, hearty Italian fare

Absolutelly amazing, made me think of my home in Europe, where we also enjoy Italian style pizza. The staff os also super lovely!

Found this place by chance, whilst booking parking for NIA. What a find! A little gem, tucked away. Greeted by the smell of garlic and herbs as we entered the door. Pleasant surroundings. Lovely service. Bruschetta pomodoro was the best weve tasted. Mains were equally as good, delicious, tasty, and ample servings. Four of us; wine, starters and mains £92. What a steal. Definitely recommend. Wish we lived nearer so we could visit again.

As many people have said please do not judge a book by its cover. It’s no oil painting from the outside but once you’re in you will find a fantastic welcome, fantastic authentic food and very reasonable prices. You can smell the food cooking from the kitchen, it’s obviously fresh and wonderful. All the staff are extremely helpful and attentive. So much nicer eating here than the ‘fake’ Italian restaurant chains found on the high street where it’s obvious that the inflated prices are just going to pay the rent rather than going on the ingredients. Highly recommend a visit here, well done guys!

Fantastic restaurant you guys did such a fantastic job of serving 18 people for a birthday party food all came out together and everything was fantastic. The service was also brilliant for the amount of people they had to serve at the same time thank you so much and if you have never been before your missing out

Not soo good, been three times in last six months and significantly less tasty than a few years ago. The chef to Pavarotti has moved on I hear

Small independent Italian restaurant. Food is absolutely superb and prices are good too. Will definitely be returning.

Behind a rather nondescript façade and in an inauspicious part of Birmingham is this fabulous place. Authentic Italian cooking, relaxed atmosphere, affordable prices and friendly staff. If you like food in Italy but are disappointed about eating Italian in UK (like me), this is the place for you. Always pleased to return.

Friendly staff, relaxed atmosphere, good service, authentic italian food!❤

Absolutely beautiful Italian cuisine.Gustami make the best vegan/vegetarian pizza in Birmingham...

Absolutely amazing food and very friendly service. Will recommend to all and definitely return for another meal

Delicious, genuine Italian food, really friendly staff and very reasonable

One of the best proper pizza places I have ever been in!

What a gem!! You would never notice it walking past but I cannot recommend this place enough. Food was absolutely delicious and was very very reasonable. It all tasted very fresh and staff were lovely too.

Gustami is our family favourite! The food is fabulous, fantastic wine selection & the team are really lovely. It’s totally worth the short walk out of the Jewellery Quarter or the city centre for a genuine, independent Italian.

Cakes were dry but the mains were excellent. The prices were great too. The service was impeccable. The waiter was quick without looking rushed, the food was served fairly quickly.

This place gets great reviews online but when we went there we entered a cold enough restaurant with a pungent smell.. can't comment on anything else as we had to leave due to this.. maybe the food is good but we didn't hang around to find out

Great restaurant. People super kind and the food is very good.

Amazing food and service. Cannot believe the quality of freshly made pasta. We look forward to going back again!

Location is a bit far away from the city but food and prices are just perfect. The homemade pasta filled with spinach is sooooo good that I finished the whole plate!! As a person with low appetite for a while this is the biggest compliment I would give. Tiramisu is the best as well, probably 10 times better than the ones in town. Thanks so much for taking care of us the whole night x

We were in Birmingham for business and found this gem when searching for places to eat. The food is absolutely stunning! Staff were really nice and very knowledgeable. Thank you for a great service.

Food is absolutely amazing! And staff are so welcoming, will definitely come back here when I'm in the area

This was a surprise, first class authentic Italian food, excellent service, reasonable price. We will be back, this time with friends.

We had lunch at gustamis today ,Excellent quality food , friendly quality service really good value,highly recommend.

Best Italian restaurant in Birmingham! The food was beautiful, amazing flavours and quality ingredients. The service and atmosphere was perfect, it’s a very quaint little restaurant; perfect for a couple or friends - highly recommend
