Personal Chef And Caterer of the Northern Nevada, Reno, & Tahoe area

Meet Chef Gusto

I’ve been cooking since I was seven—or at least since I could reach the fridge and stove without a stool. In 2016, I officially launched Gusto, blending my love for traditional Mexican cuisine with the artistry of sushi, Asian-inspired flavors, Italian classics, and French elegance.

Whether it’s an intimate cocktail party or a four-course dinner at home, I bring the restaurant to you, so all you have to do is relax, eat, and enjoy.

Catering With Gusto

The Gusto experience transforms your home into the ultimate dining destination. From sushi bites and cocktail-hour appetizers to indulgent four-course meals, every detail is crafted for joy. You enjoy your guests, I handle the cooking and the cleanup so the only thing left are the unforgettable memories.

Unique Approach

What sets me apart from other personal chefs is my interactive, open-kitchen approach. I don’t just cook behind the scenes, I connect with you and your guests, making the experience personal, engaging, and fun.

I offer carefully curated menus that highlight my specialties, but I also customize every menu to fit your tastes and event needs. With Gusto, it’s not just dining, it’s a memorable culinary journey created just for you, right at home.

Reviews

We absolutely loved working with Gustavo. He and his team did a series of 20-person dinners. It was an absolute delight. He was incredibly helpful in creating a different, delicious menu for each night. Every dish was thoughtfully and creatively assembled. He took the time to understand the dietary preferences of everybody in the group and created a customized menu that catered to the needs of the group. His enthusiasm is palpable. He arrived on time and well-prepared every week. We cannot recommend Gustavo highly enough. He is a gem and we feel incredibly fortunate to have had the opportunity to meet and work with him.
