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.
Absolutely great! Best Italian food I've ever had and for the best prices! Definitely going 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!
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!
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!!!
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.
Ristorante Caffe Gustami is a small independent Italian restaurant near the Jewellery quarter. It is not very big, with a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. You can see pictures with the chef owner around the restaurant. Italian music is playing throughout. There is a large variety of wines. The staff are very friendly, the waitress is very knowledgeable and when presented the menus also explained the specials for the day. The prices are very good and the food is absolutely delicious! Everything is homemade. Even the chef comes out after every course to ask if the food is alright. Such a nice and friendly environment. You feel like you're transported in an intimate restaurant in Italy! Recommend the sharing platter with cheese, different nibbles, homemade focaccia and hams and salami! The risotto is absolutely delicious. The pasta is so fresh and tasty! Definitely recommend!
Very pleasant staff and good food! Place looks simply and not much interesting to come inside, but you will be surprised with the hospitality they meet you and with nice menu. Everything is really fresh and cooked with love. Thank you
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!

Went in after days of craving pasta, and was delighted on every count. Clean, bright, fresh designed interior; very pleasant to look at with Italian music playing gently. It was a 30 degree day out, but inside felt cooler and refreshing. It was incredibly cosy and we are definitely returning! I especially look forward to returning in the cooler seasons, as the food was hot and hearty, great for satiating cravings and hunger.
They had quite a few specials and they were all incredibly appealing. The man who served us was very kind and described every dish for us and did not give off condescending or judgemental vibes at all. He also checked on us throughout and was super responsive and helpful.
The creamy salmon pasta was very delicate in flavour with incredible tasting smoked salmon. The spaghetti with meatballs was everything I ever wanted in a plate of pasta – hot, fresh tomato, garlic herby sauce with spaghetti that was perfectly cooked and meatballs that were just solid and meaty. We also ordered the Panna cotta with chocolate topping and the chocolate sauce was so rich, the Panna cotta being smooth and full of flavour, a fantastic consistency.
Great experience, and as other reviews said, don't judge a book by its cover. This was perfect and ticked all the boxes, for reasonable prices! Definitely returning and recommending to anyone who wants Italian food!!! No faults! Can't thank the person here enough for the pleasant experience.
