" I recently celebrated my birthday at Gran Gusto, and it was a fantastic experience! The service was attentive, and they managed to make our celebration feel special. The Chitarra cooked in a cheese wheel was a standout dish – creamy and rich in flavor. The pizzas were tasty too, but my heart belongs to the risottos here. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for authentic Italian dining! " (*Curated Review*)

" The overall dining experience at Gran Gusto was quite enjoyable. The calamari appetizer was nicely cooked, tender, and flavorful. The main course, however, the pizza, fell short of my expectations in terms of crispiness. Service was friendly but a little slow. Despite this, I would consider returning as I've heard great things about their pasta. " (*Curated Review*)

" Great dining experience overall! The atmosphere is cozy, perfect for a date night. The antipasti platter was fresh and flavorful, and the pasta dishes could not have been better. Service was friendly, even though it felt a bit slow at times. I think it’s worth trying for anyone who enjoys good Italian food. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been to Gran Gusto multiple times, and it never fails to impress! The pasta is consistently cooked al dente, which I greatly appreciate. The staff treats you like family, which adds to the homey feeling. If you want a true Italian culinary experience, I totally recommend this restaurant. You won’t regret it! " (*Curated Review*)

" I discovered Gran Gusto through friends, and it didn't disappoint! The freshness of the ingredients really shines through. We particularly loved the homemade pasta, which was cooked perfectly. Service was friendly, but the wait for our food felt a little long. All in all, a great experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" My family tried Gran Gusto last weekend, and we had a blast! The energy of the place was lively, and the staff was cheerful. Everyone enjoyed their meals, but my pesto pasta truly stole the show. The prices were reasonable for the quality, making it a solid choice for families. " (*Curated Review*)

" I enjoyed my visit to Gran Gusto. The staff was attentive, and our food came out quickly. The pizza was properly cooked and tasted amazing! The only drawback was the limited dessert options, but the savory dishes made up for it. This place truly captures the essence of Italian cooking. " (*Curated Review*)
