Giusto Restaurant
About Giusto Restaurant
Giusto Restaurant in London's well-heeled Marylebone has got the three R's of informal Italian dining down pat: rustic, robust and reasonably priced. Giuseppe and Tommy, the restaurant's jovial owners and inspiration for the venue's name (Gius + To = Giusto, get it?) have developed a hearty menu of Italian favourites, including homemade pastas and some of the best pizzas on offer in the area. Start with fantasia di calamari, or grilled squid, artichokes, rocket and cherry tomatoes and move on to our favourite, the formidable allegro pizza, complete with mozzarella, friarielli, Italian sausage and scamorza (smoked mozzarella). It Italian, Giusto means 'just right', however given this restaurant, we think perhaps the new meaning should be 'just fabulous.'
