Gusto, Alderley Edge

If you are ever in Alderley you should try this place out great for adults and kids alike, kids can make their own pizza's while there is loads to choose from for me and the hubby!

Lovely atmosphere, the booth seating is gorgeous it always has a nice buzz about this place, lovely!

I was really disappointed with my visit to Gustos last weekend. I asked for a small glass of wine, the first glass had lipstick on it and the second had a crack in the stem. It wasn't to long ago that they steamed the glasses. Our party also booked a booth, or so we thought. We booked using their online service and requested a booth as, although the food is generally at a high standard, the lack of soft furnishings means being deafened and struggling to talk around a square table. On arrival we were told we could not reserve booths and they were for parties of 6+ (we were a party of 5) with a 'hard luck, not our problem' attitude. We were not informed of this before hand and if we were we could of considered alternative arrangements.

The food was to a good standard as always, but not good enough to ignore the above problems considering the cost of a meal I would expect better. With so many other nice restaurants in the area, we will be venturing elsewhere in the future.

I visited Gusto (again!) last Friday and once again everything was faultless! The service was prompt and friendly without being over powering, our pre-dinner Mojito's we're some of the best I've had in a while and the food was incredible, I can highly recommend the scallops & prawn spaghetti - mmmmmm! I'm getting hungry thinking about it! As it was Friday night the bar was pretty busy which gave the place a real buzz.

I visited Gusto, Alderley Edge with my two children last weekend and had a lovely meal, the kids got to make there own pizzas and were really happy with there chef's hats on and there ipods to play with !!

With the children occupied we were able to have a lovely meal with happy children we could sit back and enjoy the amazing Griffin Pizza and a fab pasta with chilli and King prawns... all the food was served quickly and tasted fab!!!

We would definately visit again as it ticks all the boxes for us!

Great place. Family freindly and fun to see which celeb's are dining with you. Good steaks and good pizza too. Great service. A bit pricey but it is alderley after all!

We visited this restaurant as part of a large group, and the service we had was really good considering how many of us there were. The food was alright but I’m not sure I’d go back on the strength of that, there are nicer place to eat in alderley Edge but the building was very impressive so I might go again anyway.

Oh no! Bad bad bad, who decided to change the wonderful Est Est Est into this, ok the interiors not changed that much (well not at all!) but my goodness the food! It’s awful! I mean I had the worst desert I’ve ever had!! The pasta was far too creamy (and this coming from a girl who could live off creamy pasta!) the desert came covered in nuts! (no mention of this in the description) and the raisin bread had NO raisins in and looked decidedly like ciabatta, well it was ciabatta NOT raisin bread as described - I do think the chef and the menu writer need to get together and discuss.

Sad sad day…

We turned up on a Saturday lunchtime, so we were expecting to have a slight delay in waiting for a table, but after a couple of sips of classic Italian white we were taken to our seats, which was a relief as the aromas flowing had got our tummies rumbling!

As with many restaurants, choosing took a great deal of time as everything looked and sounded delicious. To start we couldn’t resist the garlic pizza bread with mozzarella. The chargrilled chicken and seafood risotto were both perfect ways to finish off the meal, with absolutely no room for any desserts, but for next time we’ll skip the starter and definately save room for the sweet banoffee or nutella and marscapone calzone!

There was a great atmosphere in this establishment, and though the tables were slightly close together that only added to the intimate feel to the place. The building itself is beautiful and well looked after, much like the clientele you’d expect from Alderley Edge.
