Vasili provided us with prompt and attentive service and accommodated our special requests with a smile. Our food had a lovely presentation and served at just the right temperature. The pate was like a mousse, very flavourful and light. The frites arrived piping hot just the way we like them. The ratatouille kabob had a nice smokey flavour accompanied by a spicey sauce. The glazed carrots were cooked perfectly.

We went for the oysters and we were not disappointed! Both our server (long time server of Pure Spirits whose name sadly forget) and the manager served us and chatted about the oyster we had ordered. Overall we lived all the food we ordered and the attentiveness of our server.

We had a great time at Gusto 501. We ordered carpaccio, baked brussel sprouts, and Pepperoni pizza from the Happy Hour menu, and Truffle Pasta and Risotto from the main menu. All meals were delicious.
