The Zuccarini family's pioneering spirit and passion for hospitality began in 1954 with Giacomo Zuccarini, the first importer of espresso machines to Canada. Forty years later, Janet Zuccarini, entrepreneur and visionary, continued in her father's legacy with the creation of Gusto 54. Trattoria Nervosa in Yorkville and Gusto 101 on King West set the benchmark in Toronto for soulful hospitality and innovative culinary experiences. Zuccarini has since built upon her successes, adding Gusto 54 Catering, Pai Northern Thai Kitchen, Kiin, Felix Trattoria, Chubby's Jamaican Kitchen, and Gusto 501 to the growing roster. Through quiet leadership and family ethos, Gusto 54 expands its community of restaurants with future projects Azhar, Alta, and Stella.

Gusto 54 Restaurant Group is proud to be a Deloitte Best Managed Company.
