We had an absolutely amazing experience at Gusto Handcrafted Pasta and Pizza! Our server Destiny was fantastic — friendly, attentive, and made sure everything came out perfectly.
The food was exceptional from start to finish. We started with the focaccia bread with tapenade, garlic bread, and bruschetta — all fresh and full of flavor. The Diavola and Funghi pizzas were incredible, perfectly crisp and loaded with authentic ingredients. The Ravioli Funghi was rich, creamy, and perfectly balanced.
And the tiramisu — absolutely to die for! One of the best we’ve ever had.
Highly recommend this spot for anyone who loves authentic Italian food and great service. Destiny made our evening even better — thank you for such a memorable dining experience!

Sort of found this spot by accident after a long drive and since the reviews were decent decided to give it a try. It was satisfying and good. Somewhat disappointed based on the glowing reviews but it was fine. We tried pepperoni pizza and the beet salad. Maybe the pasta is better? But based on these two dishes, not great food. Pizza was good and satisfied our hunger but somewhat above average. Not amazing for us as some reviewers say. The beet salad we actually enjoyed a lot more. Much better than expected. Service was good. Bread and spread that comes with it was good. Since the pepperoni was a little salty for my taste i took some off and using some of the spread actually made it much better.

We rolled into Gustos on a Sunday looking for an easy family win and walked out feeling like we’d found a keeper. The service was warm and effortless, the kind that makes you relax before the first bite.
I always start with the fundamentals. Margherita pizza and spaghetti marinara. Simple on paper, brutal to do well. Gustos does them beautifully. The crust is crisp with that wood fired blister, the tomato tastes clean and bright, and the cheese lands rich without turning heavy. The spaghetti has real snap and the marinara is honest and lively, not sugary, not muddled, just right.
Everything came out on point and consistent, like a kitchen that respects the basics and has nothing to prove. We left smiling, fed, and already planning the return. Thanks for a great night for my wife and kids.

The complimentary bread with tomato relish was really good. We had the early bird special, a lot of choices. I had pasta and my husband had san dabs very good. We also had the Caesar salad very nice. Wine was nice too. Happy hour from 4-6. No early bird on Friday and the weekend.

Came by with family and some friends while in town for the half marathon event. We had kids in our party and therefore decided to look for a nearby pizzeria. The place was packed and the parking lot was completely full. Service was prompt but the food took a really long time to arrive. The menu was extensive and everything looked delicious. We ordered 2 pizzas (burata and Carnivora), the proscuitto, linguine scampi, roasted pear salad and lasagne – all were really well done. Will definitely consider returning.

Authentic Carbonara! Now, if only they offered a Cacio e Pepe. The Butternut Squash Ravioli was a little sweet for my taste, seemed to throw off the balance a bit – but expertly prepared and delicious nonetheless. A beautiful tiramisu – made in-house.. Fine dining in a nearly casual atmosphere. Reasonably priced, wonderfully made, Italian fare. My only disappointment was the lack of an Insalata Caprese. Mangiamo!

It’s a nice place modern
The focaccia was ok 3 stars and the dip was an olive oil tomato tapenade of some sort 3 stars
The CARBONARA was not good 1 stars. I was so hopeful because if the egg yolk. The guancial was maybe old or rotten disgusting and overly salty. Not fresh. The sauce was also not good. My starving growing but picky teen could not finish his. I have had way better in Italy Unfortunately we ordered 2 so we did not have a good comparison to other pastas
Pizza Diablo was GREAT. done if the vest we have ever had. The spicy calabrese was delicious. Wood fire. Crust perfect thinness. 5 stars
Panna cotta. Custard milky with chocolate and raspberry sauce. And a few fresh blueberries and raspberry. 4 stars. Needs more sauce.

Every aspect of our dinner was fantastic! 12 guests and everyone loved their drinks and their food! The restaurant staff was very accommodating of our late-booked and large party.
From appetizers to pasta to fish, the dinner was superb. The restaurant is quite small so be sure to call ahead and make a reservation. Also, do not be put off by the fact that it looks like took over an old Perkos or Denny’s. This is definitely a case of “don’t judge a book by its cover.”
Service was great starting with drinks at the bar all the way through dinner.

Good food, good ambience!
We had Eggplant parmigiana and Vegetarian pizza. Loved eggplant parmigiana, it tasted perfect. Pizza was good too just didn’t really liked eggplant on it
Otherwise good food, do recommend it!
Our server Destinee was very sweet and accommodating, loved meeting her!

Good service and quality good. Pizza was made well, we did ask for the pizza to made well done or crispy to ensure the crust on the bottom was crispy to our satisfaction. And the lasagna was delicious. You can tell it was fresh made pasta. Service was excellent as well. Plenty of parking in the back. They also have 1 gluten free pasta option .
