I had a few minutes for a small dinner and decided to stop in at Gusto. I pulled into the large shared parking lot and found a spot right up front. When I walked inside, the person behind the counter offered a basic greeting but not much guidance. Maybe she thought I was a regular who knew the routine, but this was only my second visit, and the last one was years ago. She stepped in a little to help me place my order for a Sweet Soy Sriracha bowl with spicy grilled chicken over half rice and half greens. I asked for an empty cup for water. Their setup is simple. You order at one end of the counter and pay at the other. By the time I reached the register, my food was basically ready. Prep time was quick. The cashier stayed pretty quiet. Nobody was rude, but there was minimal interaction with the staff, which worked fine, I guess, for a quick stop. I packed up my food and headed to the outside seating. I opened up my bag and my bowl was a nice size and just what I was looking for. It was a little on the pricey side at $13+ for a chicken bowl, but I'd order it again. Definitely my type of meal. 3.5 Rating

Polynesian Chili Mango w/ chicken and bbq Sweet Potato Chips and mango limeade
Tiffani C.

5/5 Food: I absolutely loveeeeee this place! I've been here one four different occasions. So, far I have tried the queso verde queso, chipotle mango avocado, and Polynesian chili mango all with chicken. Each time the food is just as fresh and delicious! I am completely obsessed with their flavored limeades and the bbq sweet potato chips. I do plan to try every flavor bowl they offer. Service: I usually always order to go, but whenever I come in my order is ready and properly prepared. Plus they always greet you when you walk into the door!

I stopped by gusto for a late lunch after stopping by the Whole Foods in the complex. The parking lot was quite crowded during this time, and there were quite a few people around 2 PM at gusto, but there were still plenty of seats and service was fantastic. I put in a rice bowl order to go and my food was put together immediately--there was one other person in front of me in line but I was still in and out in less than 5 min. My food was warm and packaged really well so none of the sauce spilt by the time I was home. The food itself tasted great! There was a very very mild kick to the spicy chicken which was welcome, and the rest of the items in the bowl were all delicious and went well together! The sweet potato fries were also very good, and very crunchy! A great place for a quick and healthy meal! In the future on a nicer day, I'd love to eat outside in their patio seating, which seems ample and well shaded!

The food is always fresh and the employees helpful. I ordered once I arrived and my food was ready in a few minutes. I love that they give you the sweet potato chips with every entree.

Gusto Decatur is where it is at! Love going in there because the employees are welcoming and kind. Never had a bad experience and the food is always on point. They will always have my business :).

Jerk Ginger Pineapple/Brown Rice/Grilled Shrimp

I tried Gusto for the forest time and I didn't care for the Jerk Ginger Pineapple/Grilled Shrimp/Brown rice... The restaurant was clean and I was greeted as soon as I walked through the door.. I'm definitely going to try them again but try something different

Chipotle Mango Avocado
Stephanie G.

I love the concept of healthy and hearty bowls for a quick lunch and this is exactly what they serve at gusto. First and foremost, they're locals to ATL so we love that! You walk in to order, then go on the other side of the counter to pay. The ambiance is bright and light with modern tables and chairs. It was kept clean as well. Unlike Chipotle, they already have preset items in their bowls. You can also choose salad, brown rice or mixed, or flatbread as your base. I always choose mix of salad and rice and got the chipotle mango avocado with grilled chicken. It was good portion in my opinion and filled me up halfway. I feel like the rice could have been cooked a bit longer since it was a bit under. Also wish there were mango pieces in my bowl. However, there was a healthy portion of grilled chicken and guacamole. I used the chipotle sauce sparingly since my bowl didn't really need it, but it did a nice kick. The best part of this was the chips that every order comes with. There's definitely no room for that so that will be my snack later on.

I tried this place for the first time and I liked it. The food was fresh and very flavorful. The service was quick and fast. The meal portions were good enough for the price. Really love the bowls here. I got the brown rice bowl with the avocado and shrimp. It was really spicy the way I ordered and I liked it. They have the drink machine with multiple options, or other bottled options. The manager was very friendly as were the other female employee who made my bowl. The restaurant was clean and neatly maintained. This one is located just across from Emory Decatur Hospital. This place has outdoor seating too. They do curb-side pickup and take out. Their is plenty of free parking available in front of the restaurant as it sits in a shopping plaza and it's shared. I will definitely be going back again and recommend others to try if you are in the area.

Lunchtime Grab & Go at Gusto! Love their chipotle Avocado Mango bowl!! Def a fave! Very quick service. Ladies behind the counter were nice & helpful. Was torn between the sweet chili mango & the avocado mango bowl!! Food was fresh. ShrimpWas cooked well. Chicken was seasoned nicely.! Ohhh, & I love their sweet potato chips. They had plenty of drink options, as well as cookies,etc for a sweet treat. Very clean establishment. Very to-the-point! Plenty of parking, as it sits in a large shopping center. Good food! Def worth a try! Love this place!

* Harissa Lemon Tabbouleh *. So freaking good!! With tofu of course!
Ann W.

Okay, I LOVE this place. For 7.15 you can have a fresh salad or bowl with your choice of base and protein. I can't believe I haven't rated sooner. Hubby and I have had shrimp, chicken, portobello (discontinued) and tofu for protein. He typically opts for rice. Me, I am either a mix or with their seasonal Harissa Lemon tabbouleh all salad. While he can finish all of his, I always have a bite or two left. Ordering is quick and easy, download their app and join the other your -#. Sweet potato chips always come on the side. Fresh, and yummy. I have decided every time they have a new seasonal flavor- I am in!!

I was really impressed by the food presentation because a rice pyramid was not on the books this day but trust me when I say I wasn't mad at it and we enjoyed the taste even more! The arepa was out of this world. Just what I asked for! I love the sauce options. So good Must return and get it again I just didn't enjoy the dessert. Something about hot guava sauce wasn't my thing.

We've ordered the same dishes twice because they are so good: arepita frita: tiny fried arepas. Interestingly, these are just like what my family called fried cornbread growing up. It hit a nostalgic taste note for me. cachapa: a sweet corn pancake (has egg) filled with seasonal market veggies. I can't say enough good things about how those veggies are cooked. They are perfectly sauteed and seasoned. Next time I'm just getting a bowl of them. Lately it has been broccolini, kale, mushrooms, squash and zucchini. Empanadas: these are made to order so you can remove cheese from the filling. I don't even like sweet plantain but the combination of sweet plantain with the savory black beans in the crispy shell is perfection. These reheat well also. Guava juice is otherworldly. Soooo good. The food also holds up well for leftovers, if you have any!

Ok, first off this is the cutest little set-up. Tons of parking, some in front and lots in the…read moreback. I suggest parking in the back. It's a walk up window spot with the menu and a bell, when you're ready to order, ring the bell. The service is friendly and succinct. Non invasive and just helpful without asking when needed. The seating area is a mix between covered and uncovered, with a small speaker playing contemporary tunes at a respectable level. There are string lights above, and I can only imagine how beautiful this all looks at night. I'd read a LOT about their fish sandwich. That it is a good size helping. That it has a great light fresh vinegar sauce with thinly sliced carrots and other crunchy veg. The fish tasted fresh fried. And I have to say, this is the Best fish sandwich I have ever tasted. I only am upset I hadn't come much sooner. I will have to return, probably on a monthly basis for that fish sandwich. There are enough pictures out there of the sandwich. But I also had the Thai basil lemonade and it was a nice pairing. Not a waste of time, effort or dough. Just go.

We bring friends here, and one friend in particular is so obsessed that he was dreaming of their food when he was on a film shoot out of state, and could not wait to get back. You order at the window, and can take it away or eat outside. The place feels like a party when the weather is good. I don't think it is possible to order badly: the owners keep the menu tight, and everything is SO FRESH. When they run out, that's it. (The curried carrot soup will go fast, I've found.) My husband usually gets the vietnamese fried fish sandwich which is delectable with lots of flavor and texture. We rarely eat meat, but I have made an exception to try the Moroccan lamb burger which was worth it. I usually spring for the upgrade to get crispy smashed potatoes instead of chips. And it's worth noting that the drinks are also well above average: I've enjoyed the indulgence of a Bravassi hard Italian soda with my meal on a lazy afternoon, after shopping at the Second Life thrift store. Their drinks are very good, and they serve them up straightaway to savor while you wait for your order to come up. I have not yet ordered a salad but they have an array of excellent / choices, and I know they will not disappoint. I also want to note that although there is not waiter service (which makes it an ideal spot to meet friends) the staff is friendly, and well above average. It's such a great vibe, and a real bonus of living in the area. They also serve breakfast, and I feel confident in their level of quality in recommending them as a stop for anyone.
