A neighborhood charm! Chef Daniel was so kind and he let us eat in although … More they only do take out during lunch. We had calamari, Cesar salad and creamy pasta - so fresh and yummy. He prepared the dressing from scratch and it tasted so good. The pasta dish was filled with mushrooms, ham and onions. The price is very reasonable. Will definitely come back again! -

Run! Dont walk to Pasta Al Gusto.
The food was great. We had the fried calamari … More for an app, and it was perfectly cooked...not rubbery at all. The entrees were perfect, but the desserts stole the show. Get the cannolis and cheesecake. You wont regret it.
Lastly, they are BYOB...who doesnt love that? 🙂 -

I mean the food wasn’t terrible but it wasn’t great. It did not justify how … More much we paid for it. The Gorgonzola cream sauce tasted nothing of Gorgonzola. No funk. And the gnocchi was too chewy. Like it was store bought.The ravioli with vodka cream sauce had too little sauce . And the pana cotta? That’s not a vodka strawberry sauce in it. They literally just poured vodka on top. Don’t order this for delivery. Not worth the money we paid. -

Staff was also always nice and quick to get your order ready. Everyone was wearing their mask correctly and they seemed to be following all COVID regulations to keep customers safe. -

The owner and workers here were so kind and helpful to me. I am an Uber Eats … More driver that ran into an unexpected car issue after picking up an order here.

When it comes down to it, over my 5 years in Lakeview, my GrubHub account doesn't … More lie. This is by far my most ordered from restaurant bc it is fast and delicious. Lasagna de la casa, rigatoni alla grassa, portabello rapini, insalta al gusto (don't be fooled by the salad title this is so delicious) are the staples. -

Was looking for a great Italian restaurant in Lakeview and happened to try pasta … More Al gusto. Wanted to celebrate a special occasion at home during the stay at home pandemic phase and the food from this restaurant just made it so special. The gnocchi in Al gusto sauce, the shell pasta in Alfredo sauce, spinach salad all was so delicious. Can't wait to eat at the restaurant when things open up again. -

I love it here! They have the best fettuccini Alfredo! I love ordering it with … More chicken! The food is always pleasing and is comforting. The prices were just like the ones at Olive Garden but the food was much better. Much appetizing! I will gladly come back! And recommend you do so! I’m picky with food so me actually enjoying it was surprising to me, but I love me some pasta! There’s also a tiny like museum I enjoy watching while going here, when you go to the bathroom you can see old pictures they used to put on the wall and a door they used to use and some old lettering sign. That says (states) “Pasta Al Gusto”. I might admit I don’t like the new photos but I love everything else otherwise 🙂 -

I ordered thru grubhub for delivery.

This was our first time here; we were looking for an affordable BYOB pasta spot. … More This place was amazing! We ordered a lentil soup special, garlic cheesy bread, raviolo de carne and spagetti with meat balls. Everything was delicious and well seasoned with lots of flavor. The meats were cooked well and not too dry. And to top it all off, the service was attentive and super friendly. Our waitress was very knowledgeable about the menu offerings and shared really great suggestions. 10/10 would recommend to a friend and will return soon! -

Surprisingly good, homemade Italian eats, tucked away in a small space on Southport. … More There are a lot of options to try, although the staff tend to lean towards many of the same dishes whenever we ask for recommendations. This is not a bad thing, they make generous portions of solid comfort dishes at very reasonable prices. The restaurant itself is a bit sparse, so we tend to eat on the patio, or get take-out. -

I liked these guys for a long time. We would always order them for lunch at … More work. They decided to change their lunch special menu and remove several of our favorites but refused to change their menu on their website. They also frequently would mess up basic parts of delivery orders (like not including salad dressing with a salad or forks with pasta). I put up with it for a long time but today was just too much. I'm done with this place. -

We were going out for a group dinner and were planning on trying The Butcher's … More Tap, but it was so loud in there I could barely hear myself think. We walked up and down the Southport corridor but everything was packed to the gills on a Wednesday evening at 6:30. So then we passed Pasta al Gusto, which was almost completely empty and had suspiciously reasonable prices. I was skeptical but we were at the end of our ropes looking for a place to just sit down and eat.It's a small space inside and there's nothing special in the decor, but it's clean and there's a nice, cozy theme. We ordered a caesar salad and cheese bread for appetizers, which were both good.For the main meal, I got the linguine pesto. I'm a complete layman when it comes to stuff like this so I didn't really know what to expect, but it was totally delicious. The noodles were cooked to just the right texture (apparently in white wine?) and the pesto sauce had the consistency of a really good alfredo, but was...well, pesto. It was delicious, and I sampled some gnocchi, lasagna, and some other stuff I can't name that was all really, shockingly good.We didn't get dessert, but our waitress (who was great also, by the way--we kept asking obnoxious questions about the dishes that she was happy and able to answer) claimed they were all made from scratch and made a compelling case for the tiramisu that I'm excited to go back and try.I tend to only write these reviews for restaurants that I really enjoyed but that I'm worried don't get enough attention. Pasta al Gusto definitely fits that bill. It's very inconspicuous among the boom and dazzle of the other restaurants along Southport, but it's also very worth the visit. -
