First time eating at Gusto's. My son and I ate the Margherita pizza, and my son said it best "the crust wasn't too soft and not too hard, the cheese doesn't rip off the pizza when pulling a slice, and the pizza really filled me up, perfect." It's his new favorite pizza in Fayetteville. Thank you very much.
This was the most disgusting flavorless pizza ive ever had. I get what they are trying to do with the european style pizza. Which i have ate pizza in europe its delicious. This misses the mark by a mile.
They can improve some more.
The best authentic pizza I have ever had in a loooong time!
Awesome experience, food was great!!!! Staff was amazing. Would highly recommend!!
My wife and I used to own an operate a pizza restaurant for 22 years. We are both Italian. This pizza was dry and flavorless. This is the third and last time we have been here we will not come back.

Food was good, but they have no ice, so canned soda or lukewarm bottled water are the only options. Very authentic dishes.

I wanted it to be better. My second time I've been. Will spend my money elsewhere. Sorry if that's harsh but that is how it goes. I wish the food tasted better. eggplant panino barely tasted like eggplant, very small amount of eggplant in the sandwich. The bread for the sandwich was very nice. I had the Arancini, sadly they were very very bland and had little flavor. their texture however I felt was perfect. Just tasted like nothing though. after all that, it’s also a little too pricey. I typically will not mind paying that price to support a small business if it is off the charts good and keeps me coming back, but it is definitely missing something. All the best. ///Update: I recently changed my star rating from 3 to 1 because the owner replied originally to my review and said thanks for the constructive feedback, but then I see that they edited their reply and argued with me and made everything my fault so that made me ranked them three stars to one star. My order was to-go so no I didn’t dump salt on the arancini. And I don’t think salt would solve the problem. They had no taste. You might be in the wrong line of work if you cannot handle criticism. Maybe what you’re doing is working for you, and if it is, that’s great. Keep it up all I’m sharing is this place is not for me. Food is average and too expensive is the bottom line. but I just wanna clarify something you said all I had to do was ask for an extra portion. Are you saying an extra portion of eggplant is free if I ask or are you asking me to buy two meals? I’m confused by that feedback. Less
The food is excellent. Nothing fussy, just good food. The staff is awesome. I love this pizza. Chain pizzeria's have nothing on Gusto. Five stars, plus ya'll.
This might have been the best pizza I’ve had.
I heard about an authentic Italian restaurant in Fayetteville and I had to try it after checking their menu online. I made the drive from Myrtle Beach and I am glad I did! The food, the atmosphere, and Italian spoken brought me back to Italy. Simply amazing.
This place reminds me of my days in Naples, Italy. From the food to the wine, to the quaint atmosphere. Hearing Italian spoken in the background really gave me the flashback of sitting in a restaurant in Naples! Definitely will be back.
The food is amazing the people are very nice and welcoming this place feel home warming clean food comes out on time the pizza and there pasta are the best in town 🫶🏼🫶🏼😊😊🙏🏻🙏🏻
The pizza is absolutely amazing, and the staff were so friendly we felt like family. I highly recommend Gusto Napoletano.
The lovely ladies at Gusto Napolitano provide the friendliest service and their pizza is excellent. It had flavors from my second homecountry and the brick oven taste is delicious. I really don't know what was on this pineapple (mango?) cheesecake but it was one of the best desserts I've ever had...👌🇮🇹
The most italian thing is their margherita. She says she’s from Naples and “ the pizzas are all different everywhere “. I’ve sent this to my Napolitan family to make sure I’m not mistaken. NO WHERE IN NAPLES serves “pizza” like this. Other than that. The wine is fine and the “pizza” has enough salt to call it seasoned.

The most italian thing is their margherita. She says she’s from Naples and “ the pizzas are all different everywhere “. I’ve sent this to my Napolitan family to make sure I’m not mistaken. NO WHERE IN NAPLES serves “pizza” like this. Other than that. The wine is fine and the “pizza” has enough salt to call it seasoned. If you get anything other than the margherita or marinara, make sure you ask for it to be made with sauce. *Reply* Had the customer service been better when i asked for sauce, maybe i would. Had you had enough customer service to ask what was wrong when I took a bite out of a single slice and didn’t want a box, maybe i would have. None of this added up to the traditional napolitan I’ve experienced in Napoli. The attitude wasn’t even the same. You had your nose turned up from the moment we requested something different from the menu. I’ve lived in Naples, been all up and down Italy and never have i asked per una diavola and received una pizza bianca con salamino. Your 1 star could have been a 5 had there been customer service Less
It's insane to not have pepperoni in America!!! That is the most popular topping for pizza. It doesn't matter where you are from. You are losing huge profits not giving people what they want in THEIR country lol. Pepperoni may not be from Italy but it was created by Italian immigrants in Manhattan over 100 years ago. Get over yourself....
The food was tasty‐ unfortunately, the pricing was really high. One twelve inch pizza was $17. It was super, super thin, with minimal toppings. Also, management was arguing with a customer about the food. They take it personally instead of professionally. It's a super small shop, and to hear every word of the argument was unsettling.

When we got there the owner was getting wood out of their car to bring inside and my husband offered to help her. She declined. We come in and have a seat and start looking at the menu. The woman inside was very nice. Owner comes in and asks if we have any questions. I said no and that I was thinking of getting the porky fig. She said oh that's a good seller. I said "yeah I like sweet and salty. I make a pizza at home that has the prosciutto, arugula and balsamic glaze on it." She went off saying they don't use that.That's it's a topping for rancid meat. We don't use that in Italian cooking. I tried to say that's okay I was just trying to say l like salty sweet. Both in my eyes would be salty sweet. (Prosciutto+fig jam, prosciutto+glaze). She wouldn't let me say anything. I just sat there looking down while she grilled me on why it's awful and rancid and tried not to cry. "We don't do sauces cuz it's not the Italian way. We don't have ranch or balsamic and that people leave all the time when I tell them that." It was intense for no reason. I say again "I'm not asking for you to change your pizza." I really just wanted to get up and leave at that point but just felt so awkward and trying not to cry. My husband and I sit in silence while waiting for the food and I try to collect myself. A little while after the food comes out she comes by and asks if we like it and says it's different huh? I'm like yep it's salty sweet. All in all the food was okay but won't be returning. Pizza was fine. Panini was very crunchy so if you have dentures or something I wouldn't recommend ordering. If She came off so strong and for what. To defend Italian cuisine against balsamic glaze. Like because I like something doesn't mean you have to serve it or like it. I really think it was a case of waiting to respond and not actively listening to what I was saying. Either way we won't be back. Got home and cried. Less
The Tuesday pasta special is an easy and delicious answer to what's for dinner. Everything is fresh and made with love.
Amazing food!!!
Amazing pizza and appetizers, you feel in the middle of Italy, for the environment and the food taste.
The portion size are very small, the pizza is really thin. Flavor wise it was good just wish it was filled a bit more. I had a Bianca pizza, and really felt like I was just eating dough with garlic, we also had the pizza fritta which was a deep fried calzone again mostly breading and then inside very empty.
Excellent place to eat and have a good time with family and friends. Love it!!
For an authentic Neapolitan Pizza, you need to come here. Whenever I’m in Fayetteville this is my number one Pizza go to place.
Amazing people. Crust is incredible so flavorful! It's probably one of the best crusts I've had. Neapolitan was perfect.

This place is just the best. Great food and wonderful staff. Pre ordered the Italian wedding soup and white bean dip and they were both amazing!!!! I will be back ASAP!!!
By far the best pizza in town! Authentic Italian pizza
Best pizza you can get in Fayetteville.
Never had authentic Italian anything before coming here. Now my wife and I are in love the this place. Each time we try something new. Tonight was the Margherita pizza with the prosciutto & arugula wood fired pizza. Starter was a panini pastrami & Swiss. So good, fresh homemade ingredients. Love it.

Delicious!! I love the taste of a brick oven baked pizza! I had the Margherita. The cheese was so good. Cute and cozy little pizza place. Thanks for having us!
Both my girlfriend and I thought the food and staff were awesome!! We will definitely go back!!
This place is amazing! I live a two-hour drive away, but I eat here every chance I get.
I'm from Argentina, best pizza in the world outside of Italy. The Margherita Pizza was good but too small for its prize. Portnoy would say "5.1 undercarriage a bit limp but not soggy, just a good plain pizza" Also...... Pizza Frita? Don't bother. Deep fried calzone like. Little filling and lots and lots of doughy, fried dough. After one bite I threw mine away.
The service was very friendly and personable.
Made fresh, so a little wait. Enjoyed my Panini, salad with fried mozzarella and tiramisu.
Had dinner with a friend. Pizza was hot, tasty, and arrived quickly. I had the Diavola and my friend had the Margherita. We both enjoyed them immensely.

Great pizza and good wine!
First of all, I WILL recommend this place. The only reason I gave it a four, is because I would have like a bit more spicy salame on my pizza or maybe spicy red sauce. Don’t expect a fancy place, but the owner was there and the staff was friendly. Most important after the food, is that the place was clean. Plus I would have liked a bit more pasta selection.
Gustos was an absolute delight for my girlfriend and me. From the moment we walked in, we were captivated by the outstanding food, impeccable service, and the charming atmosphere. I must say, I've never experienced such freshness in Fayetteville's dining scene. Gustos is truly a hidden gem that deserves a visit. We can't wait to go back!
Great service and food
The basic pizza (like just crust oil sauce herbs etc.) is simply the best you will eat. Just go there and make me a liar. Michael - US Army (Retired)
May be the best pizza and cannoli I've ever had. Highly recommend Gusto!
Excellent, true Italian pizza! Fresh ingredients and clean eating. 💯 recommend!
Great authentic Italian dishes.
Love this place, pizza is so tasty and the staff is friendly
I really don't like leaving bad reviews but I was excited to go to this place. It is very cramped and the seating is very uncomfortable. Myself and my husband both got different pizzas (Margherita, and proschuto) My pizza was very soggy and my husband's pizza was just dough with 2 peices of proschuto and a ton of arugula. Very disappointing considering all of the great reviews.
Worth a day trip if you don't live nearby. So so so so delicious. And real. And the wine was wonderful and they have a small cabinet of wonderful treasures to buy! Order it all. And then get Moscato and Almond cake and an espresso and a tiramisu and you will be CONVINCED you went to Italy.
Lovely little space with wonderful employees and delicious Italian food. Hidden gem!

It was my first time here and the worker walked me to my car holding the pizzas because I was with my 7m old. It was great seeing customer service like that. The food was amazing as well.
Burned crust far beyond charred pizza Napolitana. Customer service was also bad.
If you love thin crust pizza, this is the best pizza place in town. Pretty similar to the pizza I’ve had in Italy. I would recommend eating inside the restaurant for your first trip. The pizza crust is what makes it so delicious for me! One pizza will fill up one person!
The food was amazing, best pizzas and cheesecake I have had inawhile! Probably the most authentic Italian pizza I have had in this area.
This place is making fantastic oven fire pizzas and are absolutely worth a visit. The best place to get a pizza in Fayetteville, hands down. I enjoyed the margarita pizza and the arancini - both delicious. The tomato sauce on the pizza is killer! I'll definitely be coming back here for pizza nights!
Neapolitan is not my favorite style pizza, but it was good and very authentic. Owner is friendly and from Napoli. A hidden gem in Fayetteville.
We are surrounded by franchise food. I cook at home the majority of the time. Finding this restaurant is a blessing. I was very excited to taste her sauces. I was not disappointed. It will definitely be my go to in the future.
Fabulous pizza and a wonderful host who knows more about food than most, and who can talk soccer with you, and studied at Oxford. Mag-nifcent.
We walked in and were greeted like family. The food was made with love. If I weren’t from Virginia I’d would be back.
I’m from New Jersey and Virginia I’ve tried all different pizzas that was the best one I’ve ever had

My husband went in to order supper for us. He ordered two pizzas, dessert, and a caprese salad. Before he went in, I asked him to order the Lemoncello Cheesecake. The woman said that it's only available in the summer. Well it's summer and written on their front window. But whatever. According to him inside the building was like an episode of Kitchen Nightmares. To quote him, "This poor beleaguered woman is out of everything, is missing workers, keeps making loud, random statements. It's crazy." But still, I had seen pictures of the pizza online and really wanted to try this restaurant out. My husband eventually came out with the food, and we drove home. Clearly that was a mistake. We got home and opened the pizza boxes and the pizzas were identical. We ordered a Fancy Goat pizza and a Porky Fig pizza. Both pizzas were miserable looking- none of the generous amounts of cheese like the advertised photos or descriptions. The Porky Fig pizza had 0 fig preserves it seemed. I get that it's Italian and thin, which is fine, but you can't tell me there's a layer of fig preserves under the barely existent cheese and the thin crust when it's not there. The pizza was supposed to have mozzarella, parm, and feta cheese. It barely had sprinkles of feta cheese in the middle of the pizza. The Fancy Goat pizza, or what was supposed to be it, was identical and somehow had even less cheese. We called the shop and described the pizzas and our issues with it, and the woman asked us what we wanted her to do. She seemed frazzled about the Porky Fig pizza and told me "Americans aren't used to Italian pizza and that's how it's supposed to be". I told her that the pizzas didn't even look like their descriptions, one was completely wrong and the other missing almost all cheese ingredients listed on the menu. I told her we wanted the pizza we ordered and spent $60 on. She told my husband to bring the pizzas back to the shop and to show her the picture of the Fancy Goat pizza that I mentioned. So he did. When he got there, he showed her the picture that I took a screenshot of directly from her website when you Google search it. She told my husband that it was an old picture and that she didn't want to make us pizza and gave us cash back for the pizzas. Which, great, cash back. But we wasted gas and time just for that? Why even ask how she can fix the problem when she had no intention of doing so. We just wanted the correct pizzas. So I guess I'll never know how good Gustos pizza is. I hope nobody else has to deal with that woman on a bad day. What an awful experience. I wish we had taken pictures of the pizzas before she took them back, but we were just so upset over how all of this was handled that we forgot to do so. Less
10/10. Been there multiple, have tried most of the menu and had never disappointed. Great staff, great chef and chill atmosphere.
Excellent food. Quaint atmosphere. Fayetteville needs more places like these. We had the prosciutto/fig pizza and caprese salad and both were amazing. At the suggestion of the chef, we had an excellent napolese wine as well.
Where do I even begin. The entire experience was fantastic. A slice of Italy in Fayetteville! Will be returning
The staff was super accommodating and pleasant in preparing seven pies for a party. Each of the pizza types were uniquely delicious, and the arancini a delightful bite, especially the tomato variety. The cannoli is just incredible with a pleasant surprise of cinnamon popping up. Fayetteville is lucky to have Nadia share her vision and expertise.
Pay your workers more.
Out here charging over $20 for a pizza but paying $12/hr and doesn't know why people aren't applying lol what a joke.
terrible Pizza. they also don't pay their employees a living wage. this is an easy pass just find somewhere else.
Pay workers a living wage, $17.5 for a single childless individual in NC. What do you pay yourself? I bet it's more than $12/h.
Went to get a pizza in a napoletano pizzeria and they did not serve any ! Then we had to wait 20min for two panini sandwiches while we were the only customers ordering food !
I've been scouting this place for a while and I'm so glad we finally went in. Everything is so fresh and delicious. Ingredients matter and you can tell it's all chosen with intention. The wine was best I've had and dessert (canoli) can't be missed.
My family and I have been going to Gusto for over a year. The atmosphere is very friendly. Nadia treats you like you are family. The food!!

The pizza was absolutely wonderful! Love the live basil they grow in the restaurant. Parking can be a little challenging.

Best pizza around. Fresh ingredients. Outstanding food and quality.
Truly a hidden gem of Fayetteville; I wish Gusto got more hype! Every time we dine here we are blown away by the service & the food. You can really taste the freshness & quality of ingredients used.

Yesterday was my first time visiting. I had already pre-ordered the minestra maritata also known as Italian wedding soup. While waiting I observed on the window fried pizza with collards. I was intrigued! So, while inside I inquired and ordered! The soup didn’t disappoint! Very delicious and the meatballs was so fresh! The collard pizza frittata although the dough was very good. I do wish it was stuffed with more collards and I think I would omit the ricotta cheese. It was a kick to see the fire wood stove and see a pizza come out and be boxed! I would definitely visit again. The owner was very nice and answered all questions I had. Less
Margherita pizza and great service like no other!
Love this place. Great pizza! And VEGAN options. Very professional friendly staff.
Hands down the best Italian in Fayetteville. Brought me right back to my days in Italy! THE SAUCE.. THE PIZZA… THE DESERT AND THE WINE . Wow chefs kiss !!
Authentic Italian pizza and pasta. The owner and chief are friendly and nice to talk to. They have the best pizza in the area with great wine pairings. You can tell the pasta is homemade and it really is amazing. Their dessert are pretty awesome and I cant stop thinking about the fried cheesecake. Its also a great place to buy wine bottles!!!!!
How pizza is supposed to be,so yum
This is from now on my go to pizzeria 🥹 best authentic pizza i have had in the states it is like the one in Napoli
Awesome customer service and delicious food!
A couple of weeks ago I ate here for the first time and I will say that every one in my party agreed: BEST PIZZA EVER! For dessert we shared a fried or baked (not sure how it was cooked) pastry filled with bananas … oh my goodness, it was awesome! Will absolutely be a repeat customer!
Delicious! We had calamari, pasta, and cannoli and it was all so good!

I was expecting something else. I didn't like the pizza
My first time in and I ordered the Margherita pizza, caprese salad and the tiramisu. Was not disappointed. Everything tasted SO fresh! You can tell the owner uses genuine quality ingredients. Also got to meet the owner and she was very kind. A beautiful restaurant with delicious food.

I Agreed 1000% this is one of the few places that state authentic and actually is. To much pandering in America and im very thank full for this place to bring a little bit of Italy back here so that my mom could relive her childhood. Food = 10 Authenticity = 10. i love how i could taste the wine in the sauce. Bravo Less
Get the marinara pizza if you don’t eat cheese! It’s flavorful. I added the spicy salame calabrase too. It’s wood fired and thin crust, absolutely delicious. The ladies that work with the owner are very sweet. The bean dip and hummus *chef’s kiss*
Phenomenal!!! Please close later during the weekday. 8 pm on a Thursday is too early. I need more of your pizza!
E’ tutti buono !!! Authentic and delicious.
A special place for people that want to feel like Naples. A wonderful small restaurant with a taste of Naples. Today it was a pastrami and arugula panini. Crostini with fresh figs for an appetizer!
Really good pizza and fast service. We had a group of 10 and they just kept bringing them out as they were ready.
This is the closest you can get to the true & traditional Italian pizza in probably 100 mile radius of Fayetteville. Even the setup is traditional. Loved the food, service, and atmosphere.
Return trip soon!!! When you walk in you get hit with the most amazing smells!!!! The food was even more amazing!!!! FRESH INGREDIENTS gave my pizzas and bread the great taste I expected when I walked in. The owner is great, funny and knows pizza ( and other food). Looking forward to trying her jams. So worth the stop and extra hour on my way up north.

I cannot believe I waited so long to go here. Went with my family and we all got different pizzas, and tiramisu. Everything about it was delicious!! This is my new favorite pizza restaurant. The owner and all of the staff were so welcoming and nice. The vibe inside was great. Cant wait to go back, often.
Had a great date night! Pizza was fabulous and the wine was really great! Great brick fired pizza! Good came out very quickly! They also sell wine! Great local restaurant, please support local owners! Will definitely be repeat customers!!! Prices were great!
fantastic pizza. large dessert portions. friendly staff. you really can't go wrong here.
I’m from NYC and this is the closest pizza I’ve found comparable. Thin crust, wood fired and everything is made from scratch. Price a bit high but if you’re not feeding a family of 6 it’s SO worth it! Desserts are prime to. I’ve NEVER had a bad experience, always prime.

Não gostei da pizza! Borda muito grossa e dura. Sem sabor. Aqui em Fayetteville não existe uma pizza boa.
Food and service was excellent (Översatt av Google) Mat och service var utmärkt
I was expecting your run of the mill pizzeria, but this place has a different caliber of pizza. Definitely not what I expected, but very good. The food is a little pricey, but in my opinion, it's well worth it. The freshest ingredients, amazing flavor, wood fired pizza. Definitely worth a shot if you're in the area.
Talked with the owner Nadia read the reviews you definitely have to try this restaurant across from Harris Teeters on Raeford Rd. Fayetteville NC
First time visiting today - will definitely be a return customer. The staff was friendly and engaging, the food had bright flavors, and the atmosphere felt like you were sitting in a family members kitchen. Not a lot of indoor seating so call ahead to see how busy they are. Definitely worth visiting or placing an order for takeout.
Best pizza in town. I’m from NYC and this is by far the very best pizza! It is not American pizza. So don’t be surprised if it’s different. Fresh dough. Fresh ingredients and authentic taste.

The food is excellent and the service is great!
Enjoyed a quick & simple lunch with may daughter. Friendly staff, clean restaurant, and conscious owner. Had the panini Parmigiano < a repeat for me> & Spinich Pizza Fritta. Fresh & delicious.
I have been a customer from when they first open. Still a customer. You cannot find more authentic Neapolitan pizza anywhere in this town. And the pasta specials! Just like in Italy, cooked right.
It's embarrassing to say this is napoleon style pizza! me and my friends ordered the most simple pizza (margharita) and we both even agreed the pizza is all dough and was not cooked evenly throughout, which is a big rookie mistake especially when Naples is known for their pizza.

Why would you disgrace our country like this! When using a brick oven you have to know what your doing and how quickly to rotate the pizza for a evenly cooked pie shouldn't take more then 60-90 seconds, Though you can clearly tell this lady is americanized or trained by a community college. I would rather go to Elizabeth's where the owners are really from Naples and actually have the experience to know how to turn a pizza correctly. It's no surprise to see why this restaurant shutdown so many times now. Me and my friends will not be back, absolutely awful. Less

One size for all, but it is very light and filling and doesnt leave you feeling engorged or disgusted. All ingredients are made from scratch and the pizzas are reasonably priced. Looking forward to going back again. Less

Amazing food and wine selection. If you haven't tried the weekly pasta specials, you are missing out on one of the greatest pleasures of life. The desserts are what dreams are made of.
Awesome fresh made pizza as always. Great wine selection. Desserts are on point, too…”take the cannoli”. Haha. And don’t forget to check on the counter for miscellaneous fresh made items like jelly or other desserts.
Wonderful food, great service, they even made gluten free pasta (with advance notice) for my husband.
This is real deal Italian/Neapolitan pizza. Fayetteville ppl looking for the genuine article get there as soon as you can!
Four stars for the pizza I have had it a few times and it is good. I ate the pasta excited, penne vodka is my favorite, but I ate one piece.

My boyfriend and I went here the first time the other weekend. The food is amazing! The pizza is authentic unlike domino's etc. Great prices too. The atmosphere of cozy, the restaurant is nice and I love the area of fresh basil that's growing!! The lady who runs the restaurant is kind as well and we enjoyed chatting with her. Definitely my new favorite restaurant and we will be back.
Delicious food beautiful presentation. I have no complaints.
5 stars. Food is delicous!
Only one word comes to mind: WOW!!! We have been in NC for about six years and often lamented that pizza in and around Fayetteville was decent at best. Gusto’s is definitely the best pizza in Fayetteville without question. We definitely look forward to making this our go to place for pizza.

The restaurant may not be for everybody (those without taste, those without a sense of humor or can't take a joke) but it's darn sure for me. Every time I go in there it's kind of like a raucous episode of Cheers. While business is going full-bore and trust me- it gets CRAZY BUSY in there, the staff are still attentive enough and good enough to make it feel like home. I LOVE THIS PLACE! Less
Overpriced and very mean atmosphere didn't feel welcomed at all
Coming from a full Italian mother it's hard to find good Italian food without making it at home but here it's always the best
Very authentic Italian restaurant with adorable atmosphere! Must try Fancy Goat pizza.
Delicious pizza, friendly staff. Must try
Great food…..great customer service! Will be back!!!!
La pizza estava muy buena aunque havia muy poca cantidad de alimentos.
I cannot with this pizza. It reminds me of saturday’s back home, when we would go to Napoli Pizza. Nadia is the sweetest, most enabling host. Came for one Pizza, left after eating two, tons of Lambrusco and Dessert ❤️ Our favorite!!!
Tried their Pizza... Amazing! Highly recommend.
Moving here I was so frustrated with the options of restaurants…. But then we found this place.. HEAVEN! Chef Nadia is amazing, you can tell she loves what she does. Her Pizzas are comfort food. Simple, straight forward flavors that will warm your soul! Have some red wine with it and you can imagine you’re in Italy. Already looking forward to my next pizza.
This place is amazing! Authentic Italian pizza that I haven’t had since Naples, Italy! Great atmosphere. The owner comes around and makes a friendly encounter. You don’t get that now and days. Thank you for the amazing experience and great company!
Come on out and eat the best za in town! Super authentic and made fresh!
This carbonara was 🤌 SO GOOD! Tonight was our first date night in months and I’m so glad we chose to come here! Really friendly staff and incredible food! Will absolutely be coming back! Thank you! ❤️
Food was amazing! Best pizza ever! Service was great. They even offer cooking classes. Stop by if you are in the area!
I haven’t had real Italian pizza this good since I was a child. I will be coming here again and bringing friends. This food is worth every bite and the atmosphere of the restaurant reminds me of the Italians in my family. I am so excited to have found a genuine pizzeria in North Carolina. 😊😋

This is TRUE italian food. The chef is a master at knowing her art and her passion for this shows. If I could, I would work here just to learn her beautiful ways of true italian cooking. The atmosphere is small, friendly, and welcoming. I will absolutely be returning. Thank you for a beautiful food experience.
Had the newest pizza, the Porky Fig and it was absolutely scrumptious!!! Very cute dining area and a real wood fire stove that is lovely to watch. Tiramisu also top notch!! Creamy and not overly sweet.
Loved it, so thankful friends told me about Gusto Napolitano.
Ate here for lunch on Saturday. The restaurant and restrooms were clean. The staff was friendly and helpful. The restaurant is small with not alot of seating. They have a limited supply of drink choices, the do have a number of wines available. The food we got: Margherita Pizza, Spinach and Ricotta Pizza Fritta and Cannoli were good. The pizza fritta was very good.
This is the best pizza place I’ve found outside of Italy!! I can’t wait to come back!!
Expected to be adopted into her extended Italian family and maybe a culinary history lesson. Don't expect food like most anywhere else in the United States
LOVE! After living in Italy I miss the food so much. Tonight my husband and I got eight pizzas for our family. The food took me right back to the family-owned restaurants that we would walk to and have dinner when we lived in Italy. The restaurant was very clean and everyone was extremely friendly.
This place is garbage. It will take u 2 hrs to get ur pizza the owner and staff are rude. The Decor does not make any sense the place is dirty. Go to Pizza Hut it’s much better.

Hidden gem in Fayetteville! You are missing out if you haven't tried Gusto!
They have wood fired pizza guys!! Was so good, super fresh and just over all wonderful. Can’t wait to come back!
Eccellent restaurant. The chef is real Neapolitan lady, very friendly and prepares magnificant dishes.
Very cozy environment with a brick oven in view so you can watch your pizza being made using fresh ingredients. Pizza are delicious as well as comforting. Staff are friendly to the point it felt I was in a family home. Gusto ruined other pizza places for me! Cannot wait to go back again!! <3
Only place I buy pizza now. Clean Ingredients and I don’t feel awful after eating like I do everywhere else. Always great quality, fast made and the sweetest and most helpful customer service ever 10/10.

This is an incredible restaurant, making pizza the hard and right way. I love getting a pie from this place. CW
Amazing food, amazing people! I first met Chef Minneti when taking my first course in food prep at FTCC. She was an amazing, fun loving, knowledgeable teacher who really knows her Italian cooking! Be sure to stop in and give it a try.
Fabulous food! Fayetteville is blessed to have such a place! I get a pizza from here every week (sometimes more than once). This place and the Indian restaurant keep me alive in Fayetteville.
The best Italian restaurant ever! I'm from Italy and really know how italian food have to be; I strongly suggest it!
I didn't think I could eat such a good pizza far from Italy ... Non credevo di poter mangiare una pizza così buona lontano dall'Italia... (Translated by Google) I didn't think I could eat such a good pizza far from Italy ... I didn't think I could eat such a good pizza far from Italy ...

Real Italian pizza. Delicious desserts
Authentic Italian pizza. The food was amazing and the staff were super friendly. Definitely going to visit again!
This was our first time going here for lunch and OMG I came back hours later to get a pizza and I’m floored to how delicious every single bite was. I love how authentic it is and how pepperoni is not Italian. We will definitely come back for lunch and dinner. Best place in Fayetteville by far.
Hands down the best pizza in town in my opinion. We ordered a ham arancini, two diavolas, two margheritas, and five cannolis for takeout. Delicious and authentic! They also have wine imported from Italy. Bottom line: This will be our new pizza spot.
This restaurant is absolutely amazing!
Easily some of the best pizza I’ve ever had!

My family and I enjoyed everything about this place. Can't wait to go back and try different pizzas. I had the Fancy Goat pizza and omg! Wonderful! Fried cheesecake was everything! The coffee is perfection! You can not go wrong here! The staff was so engaging and great! This is now my go to pizza spot! Less
This was our first time , and it will definitely not be our last. Everything from the food , to employees, to the scenery was amazing. !!
I highly recommend buying food from here. The best pizza ever.
If you want best traditional Italian and absolutely incredible wood fired pizza anywhere in the state?! Swing by Gusto! Absolutely the best pizza ANYWHERE IN NC!
AMAZING!!!!! OH MY GOODNESS, A must have authentic food from the boot! 3 words " Deep fried cheesecake "
Blind trust report: 1.They gave 4 star quality service. 2. Fist time vibes. 3. Pizza was great served hot. 4. In my opinion all restaurants receive 3 stars out of my standard rating scale in the blind trust report. How well can you blindly trust your restaurant? I review random locations.
We had Gusto Napoletano Pizzeria and Italian Restaurant tonight for the first time! We’ve been meaning to try it. Super yummy pizza & arancini. Toddler approved too 😉 Will definitely be back to try more pizzas!
Some people eat to live, well, I live to eat!!! Tonight, I tried a delicious bowl of bucatini and caprese salad. The pasta was hollow on the inside and fun to eat. Great service! #foodie

Excellent authentic pizza. The place is very small, only two large tables. Looked like most people did take out. We dined in. What a great experience. The owner makes the pizza's. Don't expect a American pizza when you go here. You get a delicious real Italian pizza. Great conversation with the owner and staff. Pizza is the only thing on the menu as a main course. She does have specials on certain days. Check there web site for specials. You must order a head. Can't wait to try one. Had the cheese cake for dessert it was delicious, Can't wait to try the others. I would go after 6pm. They are hopping till then. Then it slows down. Will be back to support this small business. Less
Ordered a tiramisu cake, was great!
Excellent brick oven pizza. Coming from a New Yorker as well
Incredible pizza!! Can’t wait to go back for more.
Not a fan of the pizza made here but to each it's own. Very friendly staff and very cool concept. The crust to me had a very weird flavor and the sauce was to watered down for our taste. Please check them out for yourself, as my father always said "at least try it once so that you know".
Seriously everything was amazing
I ordered 2 pizza's, 2 cannoli's and 2 tiramisu for over $60. I have had a lot of wood fire pizza in other places; but here the bottom of the pizza was burnt, not charred. The tiramisu was one layer and watery and not by expresso. Meh
Nadia is from Naples and taught culinary arts for over a decade before opening this lovely little place. She does everything to perfection…and demands that it be authentic. Excellent…at every level. And this is coming from a world traveler who has eaten (the best) pizzas in New York…and Chicago…and Italy. Well done. Very well done.
Service was fast and very friendly. Pizza was delicious, and you can taste the high quality ingredients! Definitely one of our favorites!
Absolutely delicious! An amazing “hole in the wall” authentic Italian restaurant. Every thing is made to order and fresh. My 3 year old son loved the “pepperoni” pizza. We tried the ham rice balls - amazing!! And there are no words for the fried cheesecake. We will be returning!

My Bae (Chris) loves oven brick pizza and we stumbled across this little hidden gem. He and I have both been to Italy so we know how Italian pizza tastes. This place is definitely somewhere to go if you are looking for authentic Italian pizzas. The owner, Nadia, welcomed us and gave us great customer service. She explained that all the ingredients used are imported from Italy. She is also one of the few female certified Neopolitan pizza maker. She explained the process of becoming a certified pizza maker. She also said she’s been at this location for 2 years. I have lived in the Fayetteville area for 11 years and haven’t heard of this place. If it weren’t for Chris to want oven bricked pizza, I still wouldn’t haven’t tried this place. We ordered the margherita pizza, salami pizza fritta, rice balls, and a caprese salad. Everything was delicious. I then ordered a spinach fritta as everything tasted great. The deep fried fritta was flavorful and they even have a Nutella one that I am going to try the next time I go there. The margherita pizza was very simply made but it was packed with flavor. You can taste the love that is put into their food. I would highly recommend this place to anyone wanting authentic Italian pizza. Nadia also does pasta Tuesday’s which is different every week. She said to check out her Facebook and Instagram pages to see what is available that day. Please check them out if you are in the Harris Teeter area as they are right across from there. The name of the restaurant is Gusto (which in means “Like” in Filipino). Less

Five stars isn’t enough! Best pizza around. A taste of home for any Italian. You can taste the love and fresh ingredients in every bite. Got two pizzas tonight to-go and they traveled great for the ride home. So aromatic and flavorful! Can’t wait to try more of the menu.
Incredibly wonderful spot in Fayetteville. The food and staff here are amazingly talented. A definite must for the authentic Italian food lover.
Great pizza and a friendly staff. I will be back again soon. For those folks that have not had this type of pizza before, its best to eat it in the restaurant.

Gusto is a young small business that is owned and operated by women. They have incredible and authentic wood fired Neapolitan style pizza, which is much different than the standard American style chain pizza many grew up eating. Gusto is far superior to most wood fire pizza places because of their dedication to ingredients, traditional processes, and the craft of pizza making in accordance with Neapolitan Pizza Association (Associazione Verace Pizza napoletana,AVPN). The dough is freshly made from imported Italian 00 flour that has high protein content and is fermented for 24 hours to create a pillowy, chewy crust that is also crisp because it is cooked at around 100°F. This high-heat application causes heavy browning on the bottom and outside crust. This is highly desirable in this type of pizza and is called "leoparding." They have great wines and quality desserts. Admittedly, they are still growing and refining their processes. But it is impossible to beat the pizza quality and the love that Chef Nadia puts into all the dishes, which represents the type of passion that people from Napoli have for their food. She is AVPN certified and creating wonderful food to share with the community. Less
Fantastic Pizza and a truly Italian Restaurant. The owner is amazing and a great cook. The have a great wine selection. You have to try it. From a former New Yorker who loves Pizza.
Best calzone I ever had and I’ve been to jersey and NYC
For my pizza fix, I definitely head to Gusto. From the fire pizza oven to their one size, personal unique pizza creations, ..My favorites have been The Fancy Goat, Marinara, and the Tuscan. Where else can you find slice potatoes on your pizza? Such unique spot in Fayetteville. You will not find a pepperoni pizza in sight, and you will not miss it.

Amazing !!!! No where in Fayetteville compares to this authentic experience.
Where do I start? Oh. My. Gosh! Everything we ordered was hot AND delicious 😋! Especially the Nutella Fritters! Can't wait to come back and I haven't even left yet!
I was a first timer tonight! Also my first time having “real” pizza I suppose. Boy oh boy I don’t think I’ll ever have anything else after this! Even with nothing on it, the crust was GREAT and this is coming from someone who is not a crust-eater. I loved the feeling of not feeling nasty and sick to my stomach after eating a pizza as I usually do. The desserts were also good. We will be back!
Highly recommend. Yummy pizza!

I am especially fond of the authentic pizzas baked in the wood burning oven.
Best pizza and desserts in town. Super friendly staff. Favorites are Margarita pizza, fried cheesecake and Nutella pizza fritta.
The ABSOLUTE BEST pizza in ALL of the Carolinas. Truly made with care in front of you by the OWNER. All wood fired. You will eat no other pizza after your visit.
Vary good and authentic Italian pizza
The absolute best pizza in Fayetteville!!!👍
Delicious and great service!!!
Love the pizza. Love the restaurant. Nadia is a great person and a great chef!

What a nice spot! I had a panini and a glass of wine for lunch, both were phenomenal! The chef is very friendly and informative. The ingredients were fresh and you can taste that they care about what they do! Thanks to all, will return soon!
Pizza Rate: 9.1. Even though im not a big Neapolitan pizza fan. This pizza is absolutely great! The ingredients are so fresh and the owners really put the time and effort to prep the dough. The restaurants have a boutique vibe and they have wines available to pair with the pizza. I'll be back!!!
We loved EVERYTHING about this place! ❤ My husband and I are the typical pepperoni pizza lovers... tonight we didn't have one pepperoni and I have to admit... I didn't miss 'em! We WILL be coming back to enjoy the pizza, paninis, arancini, and alllll the cheesecakes! Thank you for the amazing food and service!
Our absolute favorite pizza in the state! Amazing woman who owns and runs the place, great atmosphere, the SMELL of Heaven punches you in the face the second the door opens.. and everything is so flavorful. We always get the Margarita, the Fancy Goat, and the Horne Goat. All favorites. 😎
Amazing. Thats really all I can say about Gusto Napoletano. Absolutely amazing.
The best pizza in town! I highly recommend!
Fayetteville’s hidden gem!
We ordered lunch recently, I got the pizza fritta and my husband got the saltinbocca. The pizza fritta was amazing! Best I've ever had.

Great pies. Love the Margarita and Bianca. Perfect crust every time. Recommend this place above all others in the area. This was my second time there, my new favorite spot. #onebite #everbodyknowsthrrules
Hands down the BEST Italian food in the region. We will always be customers. The quality is outstanding and consistent.
Wow - what a great hidden gem! Authentic, homemade Italian delicacies like pizza, calzones, arancini, etc. Put down that corporate pizza and come here.
Amazing! Don’t skimp on the dessert either. Get it all!
This is some of the most incredible food I’ve ever tasted. If I could give ten stars I would. Friendly staff, authentic pizza, and DELICIOUS fried cheesecake. You won’t regret stopping here.
Excellent Italian Pizza!!!!
Amazing pizza! Being dairy free, it’s nearly impossible to find a pizza that is amazing without the cheese. The marinara with mushrooms and arugula with the olive oil drizzle, 🤤. I will definitely be back.
Amazing food, no covid protections, won't go back anytime soon.
Best pizza I have ever had! We also had a wonderful time at Italian bingo night! Fantastic staff and owner. Thank you!
Great pizza! First time customer! Will go again! Delicious flavor! However, I counted 14 ppl (customers and employees) without mask. The place was not hot enough to be without mask and employees were not practicing save distance.
Always a pleasant experience with awsome food. Watching them cook my pizza in the woodfired oven was definitely cool to watch. Chef took the time to help explain which wine went best with my meal.

They have an authentic neapolitan pizza. The service is great!
Soooo good!
The cheesecake sampler I got from Gusto was soooo good! The price was fair and everyone was super nice when going to pick it up. Definitely going to be visiting more!!
Visited for lunch today for the first time. Thoroughly enjoyed my pizza. I will definitely be returning. I love Neapolitan pizza, and this hit the spot. Highly recommend.
I thourghly enjoyed it. This was my first time and I most definitely will go again.
If you haven't tried Gusto yet you are missing out! We attended a wine tasting and it was fabulous! The food and the wine was delicious!

If you want a light, refreshing, crispy pizza that isn't greasy, spicy or heavy, this is the way to go. There's something to be said for letting quality ingredients speak for themselves. In my opinion, the pizzas are of a "very generous personal" size or perhaps the perfect size for two light eaters, as shown in the pictures on the website. We tried dessert too. The Torta Caprese was delicous! We will be back. Less
I always have an amazing time... Nadia, always makes you feel like you are at home! Best wood-burned pizza in town!
Authentic and delicious! I can’t wait to come back 😀 🇮🇹
Authentic and delicious! I can’t wait to come back 😀 🇮🇹

Nobody was wearing a mask inside, I almost wanted to just leave the food we ordered and say never mind but my bf was hangry and it wouldn’t have ended well. Two stars only because the crust was a very good Neapolitan-style crust. The margherita pizza had 80% too much sauce. The “horny goat” pizza was bland and boring with pretty gross pepperoni (was supposed to be salame calabrese). Really, incredibly disappointed with this experience. Less

However when you walk up to the door there’s all these random messages printed out from a computer on regular paper stuck on the windows.

Haven't even tasted it yet but as a native of Pittsburgh PA...i grew up with Italians, raised Italian. The service, the place, the authenticity is spot on. Definitely come here if you want real deal neopolitan pizza
Absolutely delicious
This place is simply amazing! I’ve been here 3 times in the last week and each experience has been stellar. Chef Nadia has amazing charm and truly cares about the craftsmanship of her food. Everything I’ve had has been delicious and memorable, but my favorite is the Nutella Pizza Fritta. I’ll be a customer as long as she’s open!
Great pizza and wonderful people! Support local business!
Absolutely delicious food! I feel like I’m walking into a little cafe on the streets of Italy. Having lived in Italy for 2 years, it doesn’t get anymore authentic than this.

If you're looking for from scratch italian good then look no further!
It was ok pizza. But they had a young guy in the back coughing Wiping his nose and going about his business. Hope he isn't handling food. There was no hand washing after that display.
Such a wonderful restaurant! I enjoyed a fantastically made, wood-fired pizza, and got to see it prepared and cooked in the beautiful oven there in the dining room. Each ingredient was well-accentuated, and the crust was probably the best part of the meal...till I had the fresh blueberry cheescake for dessert! Will definitely be going back.
Wanted to love this place but the pizza was over cooked/burnt on the bottom and the cannolis tasted off. I’ve been to Italy multiple times so yes, I know what real Italian food tastes like. I was also overcharged. Unfortunately, I won’t go back due to the above mentioned reasons. I always want to support small business but be honest with customers, it’s not worth the extra $1 or $2.
If you're looking for authentic Italian THIS IS IT!!! I was there before they even officially opened and tried the pizza and have been hooked ever since. EVERYTHING is made from scratch y'all!!!

The sauce is delicious, and the cheese is quite good. The dough is lite and chewy with a pleasant, woodsy flavor baked in. The pizza would pair well with a small salad. Though I did miss some pepperoni or chicken on the pizza, I believe that these little marvels are perfectly tasty on their own. I would strongly recommend getting at least two if you are hungry, though, because you might start craving more after finishing just one. Less
best italian pizza I had here in the US so far! i can’t wait to try it again but this time sitting inside their small restaurant when it comes fresh out of the oven! i highly recommend getting some pizza from Gusto Napoletano and support this family owned restaurant in those hard times we are in right now!
I 've been waiting for an italian true pizza for a long time...and my wishes came true. When we stop at Gusto its like to be back to the place where I came up...its comfortable ....original... warming .....pizza hand made in the fire wood....so good ....so unique❤.
We just moved from Italy and this place takes me back. Our Friday night pizza night may live on. La pizza è molto buona. 😋
Nadia is the bomb. Give her your money.
I been there today for the first time for some “chiacchere” and pizza fritta and I already can’t wait to go back and try the pizza out, DELICIOUS!
Excellent food...authentic for sure! staff is very nice and everything they have is made there...amazing!
Awesome food!!
This place it is amazing , a jump in Italy in everyway food it is incredible thank you
This is true Italian pizza and reminds me of our times in Italy. There is a magic in the simplicity of the sauce, for example. The wood burning oven brings out the flavor of the crust, the melted cheese and fresh basil. Perfecto!!!
The food is great, authentic Italian. The classes she offers are very informative and fun (make your own gnocchi, mozzarella, ricotta, pasta). Highly recommended!
No need to travel to Italy for pizza. We have it in Fayetteville and it's fantastic! It was so good I plan to get a different one each Friday night for the next two months.
Authentic Italian pizza! Best pizza since Naples! Definitely stop by and try the pizza,the arancini or the paninis! Everything we've tried has been delicious! You won't be disappointed!
If you want a true Italian experience this is the place to go. I had been wanting pizza like I had in Florence and this was an identical taste. The staff were also very kind!
Great authentic Italian food. Unique to the area. Love everything I have tried! All made from scratch and attention to detail. 10/10+ I had gnocchi tonight and it was wonderful.

Pizza was awesome! Nothing like it anywhere in Fayetteville. Not your standard American pizza, this is the real deal!
Best Neapolitan street food, like the original pizza Margerita baked in a wood-fired oven....
Amazing food, great people and service. Veteran owned.
The food was great! The menu is confusing if you aren't familiar with authentic Italian food. There are only three tables so you most likely will have to get it to go. I hope they redesign the front so they can add more tables, there's a lot of wasted space. Overall though, I definitely would go back for the food and I recommend this new restaurant in Fayetteville.
DELICIOUSSSSS!!! I’ve had the Margherita pizza & eggplant parm panini and both were so good. The freshness and quality are amazing. She stays true to her roots and there’s no place else like it!!
My wife and I ate there today and the wood-fired pizza is great! Nadia the owner, is from Italy and she doesn’t serve the typical American-style pizza. So no pepperoni for you!

personal and friendly attention to your order and the owner is happy to make accommodations with what goes or does not go on your pizza there is one exception. No pepperoni, you will not find none there because as she will tell you it's not Italian!
Fresh and DELICIOUS Naples pizza prepared by personally Chef Nadia!!!
I was asked today if I had ever had pumpkin cheesecake before and I said no. The chefs response was "well you will today" I simply replied "yes ma'am". It was like she combined Thanksgiving pumpkin pie with a mouthwatering cheesecake that envelopes you in a big hug. The pizza was light yet very filling. She turned a simple lunch into a masterpiece.

I was asked today if I had ever had pumpkin cheesecake before and I said no. The chefs response was "well you will today" I simply replied "yes ma'am". It was like she combined Thanksgiving pumpkin pie with a mouthwatering cheesecake that envelopes you in a big hug. The pizza was light yet very filling. She turned a simple lunch into a masterpiece. From watching her make the pizza right in front of us to watching her bake it in the open wood burning oven. It truly was an experience that I am eager to have again soon. Bravo Chef Bravo. Less
If you haven't had wood fired, true Italian pizza, need to check this place out. I had the mortadella and smoked mozzarella(I added mushrooms), and it was delicious. The crust was probably the best part, in my opinion. They have a few different types of desserts as well. I got the ricotta and nutella fried pizza. What more do I have to say..
Great pizza. Great dessert. Lovely atmosphere. Will come get again. Totally worth it and every part was delicious!
Stopped eating pizza in Fayetteville years ago, I couldn’t find anything close to good. The pizza here is perfect and reminds me of pizza in little Italy in New York. They where packed when I went in and it was well worth the wait. Good things are worth waiting for and I’m happy I did. All the ingredients are fresh and you can taste it. The sauce was near perfect and I wish I ordered two. Its a t... More

My mom is from Naples so I grew up with good Italian food trust me give this place a try. Less
Pizza looked and smelled amazing! Staff, not chef, were very polite. But, waited for 1 hour just to figure out our ticket wasn't in the line and was never going to be made. No organization and chef was egoistic. Will not return.
Stoped by for the first time today planning to get two pizzas and be on my merry way. First off, fried pizza is life changing. Secondly, I lived in NY/NJ long enough to think I knew what real pizza was. I was wrong. The pizza is much smaller than I'm used to, but it is packed with an unbelievable amount of flavor. And, it is really cool getting to watch the wood pizza oven in action. I will not b... More

The absolute best pizza in Fayetteville! It was love at first bite and it took me back to Naples. The ingredients are fresh and the recipes are authentic!
Great pizza! I’ll definitely be back.
This pizza and everything else is unlike ANYTHING I've ever had before. It's absolutely amazing. You WILL NOT be disappointed with Gusto's foods. Skip everything else and go here. I won't ever buy any other pizza bc they just dont compare. Seriously.
Great flavor and a wonderful personality. There us nothing comparable in fayetteville. Desserts are excellent as well. I wish them the best of luck!
