We love Gusto 101, so we thought we would go to Gusto 501 to give it a try. The restaurant is unique with its multi levels which my wife and I loved. The food was excellent and our server, Alex made excellent recommendations. We are definitely going back.

First time trying it. Went for Valentine's Day and for the live music. Very happy with everything. Music was great and dining was fantastic. Service was friendly and accommodating. The portions were good enough where there were no leftovers but we weren't overly stuffed. I had the Beef Carpaccio and the Osso Buco. Both were delicious. I would definitely go again. Its hard to find a fine dining restaurant with live jazz or any other music. Most are Trendy hipster bars. The singer was really good, I don't know his name but we enjoyed it. Wish I could find a female Jazz singer in a fine dining atmosphere.
