    I was invited to dinner by a friend who wanted Italian food. Since it was her choice she chose Gusto. She said she had heard many good things about this Jax Beach staple. Gusto is located in a large strip mall with easy parking. There are several tables outside if you like the parking lot view. When we stepped inside I was brought back to my childhood. This is how Italian restaurants looked back in the day. White table cloths, red candles, and dark paneling. The place is pretty large and deep with a nice size bar. We waited up front for a good 5 minutes while the hostess was staring at us, chatting it up with someone. I was worried this was going to be the mode of the evening, but it wasn't. She took us to the side where they have maybe 10 booths that are kind of private the only thing I didn't like was that it's super dark in the corner. Our server came over immediately. She was super professional and friendly at the same time. She told us it was happy hour until seven and there was a discount on some wines and drinks like Negroni's and Aperol Spritz's. I ended up ordering a martini based on the fact that the server said they had blue cheese olives. My drink was very good and so are the blue cheese olives. The menu is pretty large with all your typical Italian dishes and some a little different. I do not eat pork and I try to eat seafood when I go out but most of the entrées that had seafood also had pork in them. I asked the server if they can make it without, and she said yes. Salad comes with your meal here. The salad was fresh and crisp. I really wanted some bread with my salad but the bread arrived after we finished them. I ended up ordering a pasta pappadelle with scallops in a lemon caper sauce. I asked them to hold the pork on the dish which they did. The dish was quite large and very good. My only critique would be a little less sauce. It was kind of swimming in the sauce, but it was very tasty and the scallops were delicious. I also ordered a side of what I thought was broccoli rabe. I really like it and don't make it at home. As I remember it was written on the menu as Broccoli Rapini or rapini @$12. I thought that was a little steep for a side but I ordered it anyway because I really like it. Like I said I don't ever make it at home. I questioned the server about it before I ordered it and I thought she understood that I was asking if it was broccoli rabe. The dish came and it was a side of broccolini not broccoli rabe. It also was a tiny order, especially for the price. This was my only disappointment. I will chalk this up to miscommunication between myself and the server. My friend really liked her dish as well. We liked it so much & ate it all so we were too full for dessert. I noticed on the menu they have a special Sunday dinner for two for $60. This is an old school place that I bet has been around for years. The food was solid and the service was good. I'm glad we tried it.

    Made it right in time for the live band, Class Act to start. Reserved a table and was seated right in front of the band. Hostess was very friendly and seated us right away. Our server, Brooke was personable, but left me waiting for her at every step of the meal. Drinks were almost always empty. On to the food! The complimentary bread was okay, but nothing that any of the table had interest in despite us all being carb fiends. Ordered the calamari appetizer, which was perfectly cooked without any overpowering flavor. The marinara was the perfect compliment to the sweet crunch of the calamari. I ordered the meat tortellini with the panna and peas. Sauce was creamy, but lacked depth. The tortellini was soft with a nice chewy texture, but again lacked any meaningful flavor. I couldn't even tell you there was a meat in it or what kind it was. Did not have the flavor of house made pasta. Wouldn't order again, but wasn't terrible. Peas were the best part of the dish. Hubby ordered the lasagna. It was smaller than expected, but packed full of delicious ricotta. Marinara was again a star! Not a bit was left on the plate. Teen ordered the linguine con cozze. There were a pleasantly large amount of mussels with the dish. Flavor was well seasoned and married together well with the sauce. Server freshly grated Parmesan over the all dishes. Tiramisu had a good chocolate flavor, but lacked the gentle punch of espresso I was hoping for. Ladyfingers disappeared into the mix. A little smaller than expected as well. The band was absolutely fantastic! Played different styles and nailed some pretty epic harmonies. Definitely recommend the entertainment!

    The happy hour prices are fantastic! Seriously such a good buy. The portions are hearty and the food is yummy. By the time we got the menu for happy hour we had already ordered non hh drinks so that was a slight hiccup but all in all I would definitely be back. The bar service is good just need patience depending on staffing. The ambiance is light and fun.

    The staff here is lovely and they have some great food and drink deals throughout the week. The food didn't knock my socks off but it was still tasty and better priced than most Italian restaurants in the area. What I would order again: - Gusto Meatball Parmigiana - Gnocchi Alla Romana

    Beautiful dining area

    EDIT: after speaking with the GM, I'm changing to base our review off our first experience and will…read morebe giving it another shot. It is rare people care this much about their business to reach out personally, good on you guys!! Pretty rough experience. We went a few weeks ago and fell in love. I love that there's vegan cheese for me. The bruschetta was good. But we went back today and the serve was SO rude. There were TWO signs, one said seat yourself, one said please wait. So we were confused and unsure what to do so we waited. I've served before and hated when people sat before being sat so I was worried. The server never came over. I looked at her a few times, more so to gauge what to do and she finally said from across the room "are you guys okay" in the rudest manner. I said kindly that I was unsure what to do and she said "well there's a sign that says to seat yourself." We sat down, she didn't come over, so we left and found another pizza joint. Super disappointing. All that needed to be said was "go ahead and have a seat and I'll be right over."

    Pizza was good -- wish I took a pic, but the arugula they put on my pizza wasn't dark and peppery…read moreflavored like it usually is (it was super light and borderline spoiled -- def shouldn't have been served). I didn't bring it up because I didn't want to be a Karen, but I'll be one now because the pink Yeti bottle my daughter forgot there two weeks ago isn't there anymore. So either someone from the restaurant took it home or they threw it away -- not cool. Also, it's pretty much self service because you have to grab your own boxes/plates/cutlery, but we're expected to tip after we order at the counter.

    Davinci's Pizza is from scratch pizza greatness just a few blocks on your way out from Neptune…read moreBeach. The pizzas are made to order, so getting something to sip on is recommended. I've tried the Helles lager before and it is pretty smooth. The place has a funky retro like vibe now with the couch setup in the front. This is a good place to share a pie with a few friends. The tables are large and they stack the pizzas on a serving rack, so there is plenty of space to dig in. The pepperonis were very good and our kid ate it all up. He had three pieces to refuel from all the running around by the beach. The crust was crispy and flakey and the slice held up well. It is new york style without a soft center. I opted for the Jordan Ann, it has a white pizza base if that is your jam. I wanted all the veggie and peppers with my pizza and I liked it very much. The slice was able to hold it all together. Looking forward to trying some more of their slices!

    Friday night is usually pizza night. Hubby and I decided on Davinci's…read more We arrived, ordered and grabbed a table. We started off with an order of cheese bread. This was so good! Delicious cheesy, buttery flavor, yummy marinara sauce on the side. A great appetizer. We also ordered a cheese pizza and a pepperoni pizza. Both were very good! Crispy crust with a nice chew. Lots of cheese. Only thing to note was the pepperoni was all-beef pepperoni. Neither of us noticed this on the menu. I didn't mind it but the texture was a bit different than traditional pork pepperoni. Hubby wasn't a huge fan. All in all, good pizza spot. Nice craft beer selection as well!
