Gusto is a relative newcomer on the scene. It's these types of fledgling start-ups that I worry about the most.

I love this place! And it’s just my opinion but I think that in someways a start up has a better chance of surviving this. Restaurants tend to run in a very frugal manner in the beginning to build a clientele, as things get better the wallet loosens up and the owners tend to start enjoying the fruits of their labor. I’ve had to dial back a little bit on my lifestyle (get used to tunafish again) to wait out the storm.
In the end I believe it’ll come down to mental fortitude, be it a start up or established.
