We also had the meatballs and I guess they were "OK". We ordered the bread and olive oil. No spice in the oil and frankly it tasted funny and I thought it was rancid. I had a salad with a cutlet that was 50% croutons. My wife had the bolognese and found it uninspired. I am of Italian descent and while I do not expect it to be on par with my late grandmother's, the food at Gusto was mediocre in my opinion. Finally - and the restaurant perhaps cannot help this - a family with 5 children below the age of 7ish were seated next to us and turned the place into Chuck E. Cheese... running around, screaming, and making a mess. Fair or not, this ruined experience which is a big part of dining out. So Gusto is off the list... Try it for yourself - maybe you will not be disappointed, but we certainly were.

Hmmm…that’s hard to take when spending good $$ at a “supposedly” fine dining establishment. There’s a reason they’re called rugrats and curtain climbers…😳
