Alex ClausenMarch 19, 2016A lite diner after a long day of sightseeing in NYC. Price matched fine with the quality. We got seated right away. Great service. Missed fresh Parmesan instead of the pre-grated cheese.Upvoted 4 weeks ago
This restaurant is an amazing hidden gem. Located on 77th street, just in the center, which gives it a neighborhood feeling. The food is delicious, especially the homemade pastas. Will return for sure- Alyson SpinaDecember 14, 2018Homemade pastas, bread baskets & sauces are all delicious. An authentic, ambient Italian restaurant. Enjoy a great meal for reasonable $. Much more elegant than a pizzeria, but w same hearty feeling.
Valerie SSeptember 16, 2019Off the main avenue, check out this cozy local establishment. Service can be a bit slow but the incredible homemade food (especially the pastas!) are worth it. Nab a spot in the lovely backyard patio.
Chiara CaremoliApril 28, 2019Everything!! I had the penne alla vodka which were amazing, my friend had the bolognese (they even have gluten free pasta) and that was amazing too, the minestrone and pomodoro were so great too!- Karen RDecember 5, 2017Pasta - penne served with ricotta and pomodoro and topped with cubed mozzarella. The complimentary bread is also delicious with olive oil. The scenery is romantic and low light.
James UnderbergFebruary 28, 2015Wonderful casual and relaxed place - always good - don't sit by the door when but is cold outside !!! One ignore family favorites !!
Lee HoffmanAugust 18, 2013Excellent chicken parm, very reasonably priced. You have to order pasta as a side.
MeCritic.comNovember 26, 2011A very intimate romantic restaurant. It's the perfect place to eat on a nice spring evening, make sure to sit out in the backyard. http://www.mecritic.com/places/place/5077/Caffe-Buon-Gusto
Gnocchi just melts in your mouth and get the pear and Gorgonzola salad is prob one of the best salads I've ever had
Alberto Rodríguez ÁlvarezDecember 24, 2015The handmade tortellini with veil is a little gressy but great!
Lana VitsupOctober 7, 2013Disappointed. Forgot our appetizer, although they compted us drinks. Veal tortellini was mediocre at best. The vibe of the place is great though. Ask for garden seating if the weather is nice
The food is great but the kitchen is unbearably slow... the staff is great but the management needs to get it together
Delicious Italian good, solid service, and reasonably priced! Love it!
Nikki 🌺November 8, 2010The grilled calamari appetizer, broccoli rabe, and homemade linguini puttanesca are amazing!
Elena KunsevichJune 4, 2010One of the really tasty simple pastas is farfalle with peas and mushrooms.

"Closest thing to authentic Italian pizza you’ll find. Get the classic margarita with prosciutto if you’re craving tomatoes—they’re super sweet and refreshing. Top it off with Hazelnut gelato."
