Gusto Restaurant and Bar

Lively venue with staff to boot, very welcoming for myself and my work party. Thank you

Good food. Ok for a meet up with friends . Not posh. Usually get in without booking . Order the pizza

Always lively, beautifully presented and friendly. This place is consistently good.

Taking advantage of the -50% offer over January, we booked through the online form. The nature of the offer means that only later tables seemed to be available so by the time we got there at 9:20pm the rumbles had definitely started in my tummy.

We ordered:
Garlic bread with rosemary & sea salt - delicious (~£3.95)
Mushroom risotto with truffle butter and pancetta - delicious (~£12)
Prawn tagliatelle with chilli, tomato & lime - delicious (~12)

Total thumbs up from me. Again.

I did not try the entrees, but the bruschetta and calamari were excellent. Still a bit peckish- the homemade doughnut dessert hit the spot, and the service was impeccable.

I like Italian food and I like Est Est Est, but was actually a little disappointed with the Knutsford one. Only a little though was still very good.


We pretty much order the same thing in them all - the sharing platter, and to be fair it is good value at all of them. You get loads. We tend to just order that and then another starter and that fills us.


Firstly we where sat right in the window - I hate it when a place does that, they only do it to make the place look full and in doing so make you feel like you're being put on show.


The food was good, the calamari was far too tough though and the rice balls were cheese instead of the usual Bolognese, but I'm just being pernickety.


The other starter we chose was the salmon wrapped crayfish tails - not only did it look pretty cool on the plate it was rather tasty too!


The waiter bless him was good, maybe a bit too friendly for some, but meant well, even gave us the recipe for the salmon!

It has changed over the years yet still has the same lively atmosphere and Italian feel to the place. Have been a challenging customer for them though as I have been a part of numerous numbered parties from 4 - 15. But nevertheless service is still prompt and efficient so no food gets cold.


Similarly myself and the people I usually go out to dinner with have the same sort of stuff in every restaurant we go in (that way I know where the best quality is to go again!) Est Est Est I found has excellent quality food on offer (a wide range at that) with large, well crafted portions. The prices are acceptable although not for all clientelle.


Staff are extremely friendly and service is prompt. Sometimes you do have to speak very loudly just to get heard as in the evenings it gets amazingly busy!


A wonderful place to eat or just to socialise situated in a wonderfully high class town!

Such a warm friendly place, I have eaten here numerous times for lunch and dinner. The young staff are great, very lively and helpful! Food is to a high standard for a chain.

This is a very reliable restaurant - good food and service and a great atmosphere upstairs

Good italian food with great atmosphere. I always enjoy the food in here and the staff are friendly and obliging. Sometimes the service can be a little slow but that can really depend on how busy it is. I would recommend booking in advance this is a popular choice

Good food with a lively atmosphere...the food is really great here if you like Italian and a good choice too.The staff are friendly too and the prices are good.Gets busy at night and makes for a really enjoyable night out.
