  The most authentic Italian food I have had, barring Italy :DIn general, it was probably the BEST MEAL I had in 2019, and honestly 2019 was a year of stellar food experiences, so kudos to the Gustoso team!We got:1. Mushroom and truffle oil risotto that we loved so much we ordered a second plate2. Fried calamari which was to die for3. Star shaped pizza with ricotta cheese stuffed in the crust (featured in picture)4. Choco lava cake that we devoured because it was so frickin’ good even though we were absolutely stuffed!I have no words to describe how phenomenal and legit Italian the food is here. If you haven’t been, PLEASE head there immediately.PS: The complimentary bread and chilli oil that they serve is super delish too. Don’t give it a pass.

  Gustaso- Awesome service with very close to authentic Italian food experienceCravings for authentic Neapolitan style pizza landed us here… Wanted to visit for real long and we finally went last night. We did not have table booked but we got lucky n got one immediately.Ambiance:The place is done more with fine dine style with darker light settings. Has a classy feeling to it but not totally Italian for sure. They have tried to add small small elements depicting bits and pieces about Italian eating scenes/cafes/trattorias.Service:The staff here was just awesome throughout. They surely know the menu well, are well mannered and courteous. My friend had a doubt about syrups being used in mocktails and the person serving us not only happily explained the contents and difference, later he got the bottle of syrup from bar counter to show us how it looks and what it has. That was really going extra mile and it was awesome!Food:Now when it comes to food, they have all Italian style menu which looks really good and versatile.As per the Italian tradition we were given breads to eat first. We ordered arancini and caprese salad to start with. We also called for pineapple based mocktail. Arancini arrived with truffle aioli and it was delicious with bits of mozzarella. The mocktail was tad bit sour for our tastebuds.The tomatoes in salad were super firm n crunchy the reduction was good in taste, but the mozzarella was bit hard and not as fresh as it should be in authentic salad.We then ordered the mains for which we had actually visited. The Pizze! We had the traditional margarita and quatro formaggi. Both came piping hot n looked very nice. Taste wise they were very very near to the authentic experience which was lovely! Loved the tomato sauce. Only thing was the crust I have had in naples in bit moister as compared to this. The size of pizza is smaller than a traditional Neapolitan. But its good experience for getting it right in Mumbai.We ended our meal with tiramisu and vanilla gelato.The tiramisu was light and had good coffee flavor, but it was too moist for our liking. Tasted more like mushy cake to us. Loved the gelato though. Nice natural vanilla flavor and quite smooth texture.Cost wise they are bit pricy but can be good for once in while experiences or special occasions for the Italian food fiesta.Honest Report Card-Food: 3.7/5Ambiance: 4/5Service: 5/5VFM: 3.8/5Overall: 4/5
