" Our dinner at Gusto 101 was a mix of highs and lows. The positive was the pasta—the mafalde ai funghi was rich and well-balanced with truffle sauce. However, our server seemed overwhelmed and inattentive throughout the night. It was disappointing given how bustling and vibrant the setting was. I would return for the food but hope for better service next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had an incredible time at Gusto 101 last weekend! The ambiance was lively, and our server was friendly and attentive. I highly recommend the mushroom pasta; it was rich and creamy, truly one of the best interpretations I've had. The tiramisu for dessert was also phenomenal—smooth and just the right amount of sweetness. Will definitely be back soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was looking for a good Italian restaurant and Gusto 101 did not let me down! The mushroom pasta was everything I hoped it would be, creamy and rich. The tiramisu wrapped up our meal perfectly. However, the service was a bit subpar—it felt like we were forgotten at times. I would still come back for the quality of food! " (*Curated Review*)

" Gusto 101 is a delightful Italian restaurant that truly celebrates flavor! The food was fresh, and the flavor combinations were creative and tantalizing. I particularly enjoyed the calamari and the mushroom pasta, both were cooked to perfection. Though the service was slightly slower than ideal due to a full house, I'd definitely return for the food alone. " (*Curated Review*)

" Gusto 101 offers a beautifully curated menu that showcases authentic Italian flavors. I was pleasantly surprised by both the quality of ingredients and the creativity of their dishes. The tiramisu was hands-down the best I've had, and their attention to detail in every plate is commendable. The atmosphere also felt upscale yet comfortable. A fantastic experience overall.

" I visited Gusto 101 after hearing so much about it, but my experience fell short. While the food was decent, particularly the beef carpaccio, it lacked the authentic Italian flavor I was expecting. Service was a bit slow, and the atmosphere felt cramped. I might try it again, but I wanted more from my meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" My first experience at Gusto 101 was mixed. The atmosphere was lively, and the food presentation was beautiful. The risotto was delicious, but I found the pasta a tad overcooked. Service was decent but could improve in attentiveness. They might just need more support on busy nights. I see the potential here, so I might give it another chance. " (*Curated Review*)
