Gusto Italian Café

Gusto is PHENOMENAL. The Lakes region isn't the easiest place to find memorable food, but this place takes the cake. They have 3 cases filled with some of the freshest and most delicious pastries I've ever had. Nutella croissant, lemon cream croissant, hazelnut braid, ricotta nutella tart, fruit tarts, dark chocolate PB croissant, tiramisu, cannolis, sfogliatelle... we bought a LOT. It was all 10/10. We came back the same day and got 3 paninis, the Toscano, Milano, and Roma - all WOW. They truly couldn't improve on anything. So well seasoned. Bread like a cloud. I can't wait to try everything on the menu, and am so grateful for a perfect lakeside spot to grab a truly sensational meal.

Counter service lively and charming, ambiance warm and friendly, food simply fabuloso! We had an Amalfi and a calabrese, with Nutella lattes. Working hard to resist the delectable pastries. Definitely worth a visit. Update, just had to stop in one more time before heading home. Pasta of the day and a macchiato—perfect end cap to our vacation, serenaded by a wonderful guitarist and thoroughly enjoyable meal. Thank you Gusto!!!

Absolutely wonderful experience! Elena and Nick are the incredible husband and wife team behind Gusto. They recently helped cater my husband's 40th birthday celebration and I cannot recommend them enough. A++ experience from planning the menu to the day of the event. The food speaks for itself and our guests were all raving about how delicious everything was - the charcuterie, olives, cheeses, eggplant and chicken parmesan, and their famous tiramisu. The lakes region is so very lucky to have this gem - thank you, thank you Nick and Elena!

First time visiting and will definitely be visiting again! So many options for sandwiches and baked goods. I got a fruit sandwich tart and fresh oj that was so perfectly fresh. There is a bit of a wait for two sandwiches but they're so good it's worth it to sit and smell the fresh coffee beans and look at the lake.

Always amazing! Go here!
Great atmosphere
Delicious food
Dinner isnt my favorite but the breakfast and lunch sandwiches are awesome

Phenomenal! And we’re picky 😂 Has it all: so very yummy, great value, atmosphere, and service. Thank you! And happy birthday Nick, the chocolate croissant was divine!

You feel at home when you're here. Between the food made with love and hospitality. It's a great combination that will keep you coming back!

Great selection of pastries and desserts (gluten-free, too!). The sandwiches are huge and delicious! They do a buffet dinner sometimes and it's amazing! One of the best additions food wise to the Lakes Region in the past couple years!!!

Amazing gluten free breakfast and dessert options. Family loves their non-GF foods too. Got one of the many breakfast sandwiches on GF focaccia and the tiramisu as take out. Wow!

Best Cafe I’ve been to for gluten free options - and they’re hardly advertised! You can order the breakfast sandwiches and get it on gluten free focaccia - a first for me after a decade. Plus, live guitar music! What a brunch.

They also have a wide range of gluten free desserts which were all great. Their menu says they have cooking courses and After eating there I’d be interested in learning how they make their gf bread!

Hidden gem.

Amazing Italian specialities paired with outstanding service! Enjoyed the chicken cutlet sandwich on fresh focaccia bread with pesto and arugula. Had to exercise incredible restraint to not order one of each of the offerings in the bakery case!
