Cacolatini - Il Vero Gusto Italiano

Product Information

Our restaurant is situated along the High Street in Deritend, which makes it a convenient spot for you to enjoy a meal with family and friends. Then, a food reviewer from the local rag came in and within a week of his review the footfall had trebled and it’s never stopped. She talked of those early days back in 2007 when they’d just opened and things were quiet and they were thinking “another month of this and that’s it”.

Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. We had decided to get to Verogusto a little earlier than our table was booked so that we could enjoy a cocktail in the little side bar before our meal. They combine the finest ingredients with an unwavering commitment to quality to produce meals that are simply outstanding. And the more deeply we fell in love with the people, the more motivated we became to bring authentic Italian food to the heart of Sheffield. I was scared about moving countries (especially because I spoke very little English), but Saverio was so enthusiastic about the whole idea.We had to try a dessert which were pear and chocolate torte and lemon sponge which also were light and delicious. Quietly nestled between the cobbled streets of Sheffield City Centre, VeroGusto has stolen the hearts of all South Yorkshire’s fine-dining fanatics. If you’re Googling the reviews bear in mind that this place started out as Gusto-Italiano in Church Street in 2007 then moved to Norfolk Row and dropped the ‘Italiano,’ becoming VeroGusto last year after a legal letter from a restaurant chain. Overall, Il vero gusto Italiano ltd is an outstanding restaurant that offers an authentic taste of Italy in the heart of Birmingham. For me it all came together to make an experience I want to repeat and am happy to recommend to others.

We add selected ingredients to 100% Italian tomatoes, such as Datterini tomatoes and DOP Genoese Basil. Our team of experienced chefs has a deep appreciation and understanding of the art of cooking Italian dishes. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published. If you know and love food and produce, even a little bit, then you just know when it is made with love and care and passion.The service and food was outstanding, arrived a bit early so we were asked if we wanted to sit at the table or in the wine bar while we waited, we sat. Whether you are in the mood for a hearty bowl of spaghetti bolognese or a mouthwatering margherita pizza, you can expect nothing but the best from our kitchen.

We couldn’t get enough of the place and from then on until we moved to the Isle of Wight in 2009, we were regulars. This was our first visit to Verogusto and it most definitely won’t be our last, it was truly an amazing experience.

We attended Saverios’ wine evenings He sent me both his coffee supplier and his wine merchant to sort wine and coffee for our pub) and we even had their staff visit us in Castleton for Sunday lunch.

To prepare the Vero Gusto sauces, we start with the sauté, a mixture of vegetables slowly cooked with extra virgin olive oil.Some years earlier, I’d had a little correspondence with Martin Dawes, then the much loved and respected food critic for the Sheffield Star newspaper.
