A gem of a place... Great food, great wine list and an amazing atmosphere.. Owner George is passionate about food and wine. Ask for something off the menu and they will try their best to make it.. Chicken liver pasta is amazing..
We had a farewell for our colleague at this cozy restaurant. Beautiful venu, the menu has a wide variety for all taste buds, the food was delicious, service was great & the owners friendly. Would recommend this restaurant to anyone. Thank you for a great evening�

Finally we made it to this restaurant. For some unknown reason we have always bypassed it. What a mistake on our part. Our meal & experience tonight turned out to be a gem here in Boksburg!!
The restaurant is cozy, warm & very Italian inside. A real village, family, inviting, feeling. Reminded me of the restaurants I frequented in Alba, Italy.
We met the owner, George while pondering over some of the fantastic wines on display. He gave us a brilliant wine recommendation and welcomed us into his “world”. A world I embarrassing, regret not having ventured into long ago.
We sat at a table on the patio side and could feel the cool evening breeze and see the moon and the stars. Fantastic ambiance.
We decided on this our first visit to stick to a selection of anti pastas. We had the grilled calamari, the prawn & chorizo, the three cheeses and the parmadello. These dishes arrived on on platter and looked so attractive and appetising. We couldn’t wait to tuck in.
Each dish we had was mouth wateringly delicious. I don’t know which one we liked more. I could not fault anything and I could not get enough of everything. So much so we even ordered a second prawn & chorizo and parsmadello. Six antipastos between two us. Way too much food but so delicious we couldn’t stop ourselves.
Between the excellent food, the smooth amazing wine, the great service and the comforting ambience, we ended up having a memorable evening that was desperately needed and appreciated. Fantastic!!
We seriously can’t wait to go back, even if it is in Boksburg.
Good Morning,
I was hoping to get an email address so that I can communicate with the restaurant.
Many Thanks
Very tasty food and presented perfect.
This is a bit pricey and when the restaurant is busy, the food takes a while.
If you love pasta, you will be in heaven as there is an extremely wide selection of sauces available.
Absolutely fantastic meal at Il Gusto recently. Food has always been good but it’s gotten even better. Their seafood pasta was phenomenal, definitely recommend for someone looking for something different. Steaks were cooked to perfection, Dom Pedro’s were lovely and the service was great. Truly a great experience!
My favorite spot for fine Italian cuisine with a proper Greek twist. The wine selection is ample and the sushi is great. Bring your family, friends or work colleagues for the ambiance is perfect.
Had a great experience. The food was amazing we had pasta. The service was top class and we were treated like kings I will definitely be back
The vibe is fantastic! And so is the service and above all the food. One of my favorites! A home away from home. The menu and wine selection cater for each taste. Don’t miss the wine tasting evenings from time-to-time... A true gem in the East.
The most delicious pasta 🍝
Me and my boyfriend tried this place place out, service was okay, food I thought took a bit long BUT absolutely delicious!
I had the pasta part 1 and my boyfriend the deconstructed yiro.
Tasty! Fresh! Superb!
I recommend you try it!!!
Wed night with live entertainment (single guy on guitar playing some good old music), sets a nice atmosphere. Pleasant staff, food is very good. Value for money.
Good food! Great vibe Sunday's with live entertainment.
Tried sushi also, very good.
We love to go Sunday's for the live music. Lovely deserts.
Nice family restaurant!

Stunning meal. It's one of the best pasta dishes I can remember having.
The outside seating is not great, but at least the food was excellent.
If you are looking for a good pasta.... this is the place to go to. Make sure you call and reserve a table as they are always busy. The waiter, David, was pleasant and cheerful. The food was divine.
Awesome date night experience. Feels very homey and romantic. Food was amazing, felt very authentic, Italian. My only comment would be that the take away containers are really small, they are definitely necessary as the meals are huge portions. Definitely worth the price. Worth the visit.
Special mention to our waiter, David. Thank you for an amazing experience. He wasn't over baring and yet kept an eye on us, checked up on us, didn't have to wait for assistance at all.
Will definitely make it a regular place to visit.
From the moment we walked in, everything from beginning to end was phenomenal.
You don't get this type of service and food anymore.
Everything we ate was so flavourful and top quality, you taste the love and the passion they have.
They constantly checked in on us and the service was fast.
We found this by chance and it was just a fantastic experience.

We had a wonderful experience yesterday for our 50th wedding anniversary. We were 24 guests and everything went really smoothly. Thanks to Mark and the staff for making the day a happy memory.
You won’t go wrong going this award winning restaurant. Fit family meals to buddies night and even couples night out their menu caters for all.
Generous portions and authentic Italian food that one doesn’t find easily on the East Rand.
Very good wine selection and reasonably priced.
Excellent service and welcoming atmosphere it’s easy to see how it has become incredibly popular.
Me and my wife had our 1 year wedding anniversary and it was lovely best service and they even did something special for us. The manager of al gusto i did not get your name but thank you so much for a wonderful evening. We will be coming back as it is really 5 star service
As for the owner. Please keep this service up. Wow 💯
Vry nice foor with good portions. First time being there and definitely not the last
Ilgusto is always a super dining experience.... ambiance, food and service. When you have all three together, it is truly an excellent recipe for people to return time and again. The hosts, George and Caroline always make you feel most welcome and are on hand to attend to your every need.
What a find. The restaurant is a must if you are in to good Italian food. The food is great service is friendly and helpful staff is well trained.
Had supper there and what a great place. The pasta is fabulous. The Gnocchi is the best I have had ever. The only reason for getting 5⭐️ there is no 6 option. Pricing is fair and for the quality it is great.
If you’re looking to have a great meal don’t delay go try them.
