    We have been multiple times and really enjoy Buon Gusto. We had the pear and arugula salad, the beet salad, the mushroom ravioli and the oriachiette with sausage. They were all good. Our server was terrific. She paced our meal perfectly. Very attentive while at the same time gave us space. She actually brought me a bit more wine because she unevenly poured the last of our bottle. There was no need to but she was very sweet.

    Nice place. We’ve been here before. It was busy, but we had a reservation so we were seated right away. Food was fresh and hot. Server was nice. Overall we had an enjoyable experience. I suggest booking a reservation. So you’re not disappointed.
