Gusto Urban Italian Restaurant is located in Century City, Cape Town – an
Italian inspired restaurant with a wood-fired oven and views over Ratanga Park and
Canal.
Infused with contemporary and urban influences, it has a far more stylish and trendy
feel than your traditional trattoria or pizzeria. Gusto includes to-go and deli offerings,
true Italian style al fresco dining on the piazza, and an extensive wine list with both
local and Italian favourites - curated by the collaboration of a South African
sommelier and Italian chef, ensuring the wine and food complement each other and
remain true to the Urban Italian inspiration of Gusto.
Take in the calming canal views indoors or sit back in the piazza, in true Italian
alfresco style, and start or end your day with a plate of joy, a plate of vibrance, a
plate of Gusto.

    The food was average and the price for average food was too much. Ambiance and service staff were excellent.

    Acoustics very bad, made worse with solo singer/guitarist, which is also not fair to artist and totally unnecessary given acoustics dilemma.

    Steaks were over cooked and although they replaced it, it took long and my clients had finished eating by the time mine arrived, still not perfectly medium to rare. Did not finish my meal as I would have been the only one eating at the table. Not a great first experience.

    Gusto Urban Italian responded on Fri 13 Mar 26:
    Hi, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We sincerely apologize that your first visit to Gusto did not meet your expectations. We’re very sorry that your steak was overcooked and that the replacement took so long, resulting in your meal arriving after your clients had finished. This is certainly not the level of service or quality we aim to provide, and we completely understand how disappointing this must have been, especially on a first visit. Your feedback is very important, and we will review this with our kitchen and service teams to ensure this does not happen again. We truly hope you might consider giving us another opportunity to provide the excellent dining experience that you and your guests deserve.
