We had dinner at Gusto Saturday night - excellent, truly authentic Italian meal and great service! Highly recommend!

Where is Gusto?

"downtown" Center Harbor...

This place could be a gem.

They make their own pasta, and a co-owner is from Italy.

Recently I've watched a program on Netflix about "Noodles" and oddly enough the subject is fascinating: a good home made product is well worth seeking out.

Their prices are too high for my wallet. I'll stick with Fratellos.

I like going for lunch, not sure I would go back for dinner after the experience I had when they were at the Taphouse.

Been dying to try Gusto and we finally got a reservation for tonight. They seated us on the upper level...and we realized instantly that we couldn't last even five minutes there! The noise was deafening and I'm astonished that none of the reviews I've seen for this place have mentioned it. We asked to be moved to the lower level, which seemed better, but they said no, so we left. Thank heaven Lemongrass had room for us. We might try Gusto again in the off season...maybe.

We met a friend for lunch at the café and had a very good lunch. It’s very informal, grab a table and order at the counter. Then you get a number to display, and they bring your order to the table. Limited menu but all good. We had the bolognese pasta which was excellent at $18.50 plus $2 for each added meatball. A decent selection of draft beer (we did not look at the wine) and a wide choice of desserts.

Dinner upstairs I think is only Thur, Fri, Sat at an upscale price.
