we visited gusto on request of my sister and her friend. I haven't been for a few years, so I was looking forward to it. at the beginning we were brought to the intermediate level. the restaurant was quite busy, but not in a pull-out wise. gusto has a noble, pvolatile feeling, and you could easily not see that it was part of a chain. After we have a look at the menu, we decided to go for nibbles instead of starter, so went for some olives, garlauch teig leaves and some hummus. then for the net I decided for the Venison Special, my sister went for spaghetti carbonara and her friend, a veggie, went for the sweet and acidic aubergine steak. my sister and I also had a strawberry and vanilla...re...
I love everything about this restaurant: eating is great, the service is excellent and the ambiente is beautiful. there were three of us and we ordered bruchetta and calamari for the starter, while for the main course I mushroom risotto, while the other two ordered both carved filet steak. the risotto came in such a big part that it is impossible to end it itself. it tasted great, but somehow the rice did not seem to be thoroughly cooked; could still taste some uncooked grains here and there. other than that, it tasted delicious with a hauch of truffle oil. the steak was great, but I would recommend asking for medium, as well as the filet is thick and the center could still...read more
Our trip to Gusto was yet another occasion where I was wishing I had a proper camera and not just my phone! I’m sad to say my pictures do not these delicious dishes justice, thus I will just have to be as descriptive as possible. Having attended the Perrier-Jouet tasting dinner at Gusto on George Street in Edinburgh, when I was asked to review the new menu, it was an easy yes. Gusto is a chain of Italian inspired restaurants you can find in many of the big cities up and down the country. To be specific, the restaurants are “inspired by the traditional grand cafes of Europe, Gusto is all about making the everyday exquisite.” It’s suppose to be ‘everyday decadence’…...read more
Since we are now officially in wedding season, the annual panic of what to wear to a wedding has set in. I thought I would share 3 outfits I would wear to a wedding to give you a few ideas on what to wear. Dress, Blazer, Fascinator, Beaded Bag, Clutch, Shoes. This is a slightly more traditional wedding outfit and would be perfect for a church wedding. I think the Ted Baker dress is really pretty and ideal for a wedding guest outfit. I would team with a white blazer to cover my shoulders and a fascinator. I would pick the beaded clutch, but the Whistles clutch would also look great. For shoes I would keep things simple with these sandals from Faith.

On Monday night the husband and I headed to Gusto on George Street to try out their new menu*. Gusto has the most beautiful entrance, with the window decorated with pretty fairy lights tempting you inside. Inside the restaurant is beautifully decorated with chandeliers, plants and lots of black and white photographs they have a whole wall of black and white images. The restaurant had a really nice relaxed atmosphere and all the staff were so friendly and helpful. With its location on George Street it would be perfect for grabbing a bite to eat after a long day shopping.
had the three course evening menu in this beautiful restaurant and was very happy with everything. beautifully prepared and presented and excellent worth overall. was on the quiet side when we arrived at 18 o'clock, something was missing in the atmosphere, but that had changed until we had a few hours later, when the restaurant was much more busy. excellent service also from all employees who review our satisfaction with each cursor without being over the top.
I’VE ALWAYS AVOIDED eating on George Street since moving to Edinburgh, mainly because previous outings have led me to conclude that you pay a high price for nothing especially … well, special. I genuinely swithered about accepting an invite to Gusto but thought I’d take a punt; you never know – previous perceptions can be proved wrong.
local people prefer and accompany the standards of corporate identity and customer services at average prices on the family, the average tastes can be reached very successfully
