We visited Gusto last night for a 60th birthday. Firstly I cannot fault the service from all staff, we had 7 kids all making pizzas and that alone took patience. The food was all delivered piping hot and of a very high standard, and again with a table of over 20 it was very well managed.
Secondly the food was absolutely amazing. I have not eaten food of that standard for a long time. I will definitely be returning, and I can strongly recommend the meat platter and crab spaghetti. Good work gusto
My husband and i went for a meal last night and loved it! Despite the restaurant been busy we didn't have to wait long, we had starters, main and shared a sweet ( i also had a fab cocktail) we booked the table for 7pm and had a lovely couple of hours. I would definitely recommend it, the food was lovely and the staff were friendly, helpful and polite we had a lovely evening �
Another lovely family meal here celebrating father in laws birthday. Great service, really helpful staff, delicious food. We will be back and highly recommend.
Some of the best fine dining I have experienced in Yorkshire. Highly recommend.
Great food, staff friendly and attentive. Good parking , definitely recommend. 😀
Had a really good time here! The staff were incredible and the food was brilliant - would recommend to anyone
Great service fun atmosphere and good food nothing too much trouble really enjoyed our afternoon for my mum's 70th birthday would definitely recommend
Great service. Lovely food. Most enjoyable night to celebrate our anniversary with a complimentary glass of bubbles. First time there but will definitely go again 😁😁
Came to this Gusto for my friends birthday, it was perfect. The decor is lovely inside, the waiting staff are attentive and the food is delicious.
Absolutely loved our meal for my daughter's graduation excellent food the staff couldn't do enough for us. Thank you xx
Good food but .....
Another nice lunch, new spring menu with some nice changes. Crab mayonnaise starter was lovely, but expensive. The goats cheese gnudi was tasty and the beetroot lovely. Nice salmon main but a shame only one portion left as two of our party would have ordered it. Duck was good and the new spelt and artichoke salad very tasty. Change to ice cream flavours and no pistachio, , but salted caramel seemed nicer, vanilla was good as was the strawberries and cream, no ginger crumb, hooray, shame the flaked almonds haven’t come back. Thought the addition of a cheese selection would be good but it was a tiny portion for the money, based on other cheese boards served elsewhere. Balsamic vinegar seemed a strange accompaniment as no bread just biscuits, although delicious it just had to be drunk!
Loved it!. Very busy when we were there, but staff were great. No complaints about the food either, and that was a party of 12! Would totally recommend, but be advised to book early.
Awesome authentic Italian restaurant, wood fired pizza oven makes the pizzas the best I've ever had and give the restaurant an amazing aroma. 5 stars
Good food, friendly service. Very friendly staff, always helpful.
Good for families early evenings, usually very busy Fridays and Saturdays, so book early to avoid disappointment :-).
Used to be Est Est Est, which was quite good, but service and menu have improved since rebranding.
We must like it, we keep going back........
My husband and I have just had such a lovely time at gusto. The food was delicious served in good time. Ollie our server was very attentive, friendly and super helpful with drink and food choices. A lovely calm environment to enjoy our lunch!
Lovely location with great decor and ambience. Server (very tall young lad) was spot on. Everyone loved their food. I would've given it 5 but a bit steep and I ordered a bit of a plain dish in the beef risotto. Just missed something.
The food was absolutely amazing! Catered for a large group of us including children and couldn’t fault the service at all! They even helped keep the children entertained by letting them make their own pizza’s before they were cooked! Only downfall was that the music was way too loud but that’s just been a bit picky! Would be visiting again!
To start with we managed to get a table for three people very much last minute, so that is a good start.
The staff we encountered were very friendly, lovely and profesional.
In terms of food, they have quite a range of choices from meat lovers to vegan.
Menu is attached.
We started with a sharing board that was delicious. Then, I wanted to try something different and went for the vegan redefine flank stake. I was pleasently surprise with the taste and the presentation. My other half had the seabass and our friend the honey lemon thyme chicken, I didn't taste but if they tasted the same as they smelled, OMG, I was having a little bit of food envy!
Desserts were also quite varied! I forgot to take the pics though, to focus on enjoying them from the first bite ✨
I don't post reviews often but we've been to Gusto a good half a dozen times now so I feel like this is honest and fair. First time was amazing, second time not so much and it took a while to return but the last few times have been consistently great. The food has always been good and I've not had a bad meal, the ragu is melt in the mouth. It was the service that let it down on our second visit (albeit some 2 years ago). We've now found such a friendly and attentive bunch of people. On our most recent visit today Ollie looked after us and he's a rare find in today's hospitality, knowledgeable and reads the room and makes you feel totally at ease. Also a half decent salesman as we took out the platinum membership but it's a bit of a no brainer with the discount you get. Best make the most of it so it'll be our regular haunt
Have eaten at a number of Gusto restaurants. Cookridge was excellent, nice ambience and decor surprised by its size and layout as it looks quite a small frontage.
Given it was Good Friday it wasn't as busy as expected so the atmosphere wasn't buzzing.
Food excellent and very good, friendly service
We really enjoyed the experience
First time visiting and definitely won’t be the last. The pizza was delicious and so was the garlic dough petals. We were served by Jemima she was very welcoming and knowledgeable about the food and drinks.
Thank you 🍕🍷
Another amazing meal at Gusto's, the food was the best we have ever had anywhere, everything was perfectly cooked and the flavours were amazing. The staff were all great and the ambiance was fantastic. We will be back very soon.
Our first visit but it won't be our last, we will be back with the family. Great food, great staff, great decor and layout. Loved it from when we first walked through the door as strangers until we left feeling like friends of Gustos.
Lovely afternoon birthday meal. Service was quick and attentive. Food was excellent, I had the Sunday Roast Beef, everyone else had a mixture of pizzas that were all finished with relish. I’ve been to Gustos on numerous occasions and it never disappoints.
Had a great experience last night with Chiara as our server. She made us feel so welcome and took care of us while we were there. She recommended some food when we weren’t sure what to get, which was great! Will definitely be returning
We have today dined at Gusto Cookridge and as always have enjoyed it immensely. Having met for the first time the new manager, Oli, we are certain this restaurant is in safe and capable hands. He is professional, friendly and efficient and an absolute asset to the restaurant and company as a whole. Even though there were only a few diners this lunchtime, I have given the atmosphere a 5 star too. There is nothing to dislike in any way. Thank you Oli for treating Mike and I so well. It won’t be long until our next visit.
The staff are brilliant. We were made especially welcome by Oli who has time to make the occasion special and Sophie who managed our table was super efficient and a delight. The food is pretty good too.
Its a beautiful Italian joint in cookridge. With some lovely staff and wonderful food...
We being vegetarian expected the food to be okay but the food turned out to be awesome...
We ordered -
- Mushroom Red wine pudding

We went with our 19 month old daughter who made sure the floor had something or the other littered but the staff was very accommodating and always gave us a smile.
Absolutely loved the place...
Special shout out to Ellie for being a wonderful server...
Had a family dinner here on 2nd March. The restaurant is lovely and the food was excellent. Best of all was the superb service from the lovely Chiara. She looked after us very well, got us a special offer of a round of free drinks because it was one guest’s birthday and arranged a birthday candle in his dessert. Tip top service. Definitely recommend Gusto
We always go for a coffee/drink after work the staff is really courteous and professional. Definitely need to book before you arrive. We've never managed to get a table when we've just walked in. That said we usually go on Friday or Saturday evening which probably are the busiest anyway.
Super attentive staff, really accommodating. Izzy looked after us really well. All the staff helped make a special occasion even more special with some lovely kind touches. Beautiful food throughout and the decor was amazing, we were really impressed when we were taken to our table!! First visit to Gusto in Cookridge and it won't be the last! 👏😊
This place couldn't be more attentive if they tried from walking in, to ordering drinks and foods. By the way the food was amazing. Parking in cookridge was straight outside the door so win win.
