Gran Gusto Ristorante Pizzeria - Vaughan, Ontario

If you like old school, delicious Italian food in a pleasant and unpretentious environment, this is the place for you. Pizza was amazing with wonderful crust and sauce. Rapini and sausage pasta excellent. Caesar salad was delicious, with just a hint of anchovies that was perfect. Friendly and inviting ... place for casual dining with great service! Read more

We went out as a group of 7 for lunch and overall found the experience to be very good. The food was phenomenal in quality and portion. The service was friendly and very quick. The only downside is the atmosphere. While the room used for events was beautifully laid out and ... decorated, the rest of the restaurant seemed rustic to the point of seeming a bit dated.

Excellent service. Delicious food. Very great Italian.

Come here ready to eat...the portions are healthy. We visited here with a group, so we were able to try multiple dishes. The calamari was excellent & not overcooked like most places. The pizza speaks for itself from the pictures alone; excellent taste with tons of toppings. The chicken parmegiana ... was also very good but I would have liked if I could have subbed the penne/spaghetti for a different pasta instead of needing to order gnocchi separately. Nonetheless it was an excellent experience with great service and I will be coming back. Next on the list to try: Lasagna! Read more

Don’t let the outside of this place fool you because it is amazing! Nonna size portions that leave you feeling like you just came from her house (complete with plenty of leftovers to go home with!!). We loved everything. Apps were all delicious, especially the arancini. Pizza was great. Classic ... wood burning oven, thinner crispy crust, lots of toppings. Pasta & gnocchi (huge portions!!!) were all delicious and lots of sauce/meat/veg depending on the chosen dish. Staff were very accommodating to our larger group and split bills without any issue. Another huge bonus that I feel is often overlooked, ALL of our food came out at the exact same time piping hot. It was magic! Already planning our next visit. Wish I took more photos - especially of the amazing apps/restaurant but didn’t want to kill the vibe! Love this little place! Read more
