PRIVATE EVENTS

OUR RESTAURANT

Gusto (pronounced Goo-sto) means tasty in Italian. Since opening our doors in 2012, Gusto 101 has been serving up

modern takes on Southern Italian classics. As with Trattoria Nervosa in Yorkville, Janet Zuccarini has meshed a passion

for creating memorable food with a vision for delivering soulful, transporting dining experiences

We put as much care and consideration into our food and drink as we do our architecture and design. Located in a

repurposed garage in the heart of downtown Toronto, our restaurant has become a neighborhood gathering place.

Whether you’re craving the warmth of a wood-fired grill or seasonal cocktail on our rooftop patio, we do our best to merge

the everyday with the exceptional.

Guests love Gusto 101 not only for our food and service, but also for our celebratory vibe! As a result, we’ve become

adept at hosting memorable private dining experiences that leave our guests beyond satisfied.

If you’re looking to host a private event for a group of more than 14 we have the following options for you.

We look forward to seeing you!

THE PRIVATE WINE CELLAR

Our cozy Private Wine Cellar, is also known as our in-house micro winery. The oak barrels lining the walls, are aging our very

own ’Gusto 101 Reserva,’ which we serve from our bars by the glass or by the bottle. The space offers an intimate dining

experience for any event.

*The Wine Cellar comes with A/V capabilities. A 55” TV is located at the head of the table for presentations and/or slideshows.

It can connect to any laptop via HDMI cord. You are also welcome to hook up to our speaker system and play your own tunes!
