    The food was amazing and our group of five friends were able to hear each other due to the arrangement of the tables! Our server was great and ensured we had everything we needed! Love the Caesar Salad!!!

    The food was good but it was difficult to have a conversation with my elderly friend due to the high level of background noise.

    This is my second time going to gusto grande. Definitely recommend it for great food, beautiful high-end feeling atmosphere with extremely reasonable prices. Their lunch menu is small but has options to please everybody. At $15 a meal you can’t beat it.  Why get fast food when you can have gourmet Italian for pretty much the same price.

    This is our absolute favourite restaurant in Lindsay. The food, the wine, the ambience, the staff is all top shelf. It’s not just a restaurant, it is an experience. And, if the chef is reading this, please please please put the lamb chops on the every day menu and not just for the occasional special. The lamb chops are divine!!

    We always enjoy the delicious entrees and welcoming and friendly staff at Gusto Grande. The lunch deals are amazing and the food is excellent. The complimentary dessert for birthday guests is an added perk and so delicious. I recommend Your restaurant to anyone who is looking for a fine dining experience in Lindsay. Gusto Grande is the best in town.
