I have been ordering steady from this place for almost 5 years now. I've never been disappointed once. The service is top notch & the pizza is actually so bloody delicious I barely ever consider anyone else for this area of the west island (I'm in lachine) the fried chicken & other items are also really good. Definitely consider these guys for a delicious pizza. I am waiting right now on my small pep bacon & 4 piece fried chicken meal for my family & we are just pumped every time! Let's go Gusta Let's go!!!!!!
I'm not into sports bars, but the restaurant we were aiming for seems permanently closed. So we went across the street & checked it out. Great decision. Service was top notch & fast. The Tavern burger was the best chicken burger I've ever had. Don't pass this place by!
This spot nails the classic Canadian resto-pub vibe-casual, inviting, & great service. Their fried chicken is a must-try: crispy, juicy, & packed with flavor. The pizza selection is impressive, & I highly recommend the Philly Steak pizza-tender beef, melty cheese, & bold flavors. If you're craving comfort food done right, this place won't disappoint!
Best fried chicken I have ever had. It was my first time ever ordering from this place & the service on the phone & the delivery person was very courteous. I was impressed with how much food came with the order of a 9 piece chicken meal. We will definitely order from this place again.

Called in & asked about their fried chicken & the gentleman on the phone guaranteed they have the best in town. OMG he was so right, crispy, fresh & the gravy is delicious. Stayed at the Hampton Inn & they delivered right to our room. Highly recommended for sure ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This place is the best restaurant on the West Island. The food is amazing. The staff is really great. It's very clean. It's very fresh. It's a good diamond in the dirt of a restaurant. It's the best restaurant on the West Island for pizza for chicken for anything at all. The staff is amazing. Everybody's very nice. My wife & my daughter often go there & they treat them like Queens & they're super friendly. They have specials on pizzas. If you bite two at the beginning of the week call them & find out they have all kinds of deals. They have great prices. The fried chicken is amazing. The pizza is the best you've ever had. Everything is good. You can't go wrong here & like I said wait till you meet the staff. They're amazing. That's like the kind of restaurant that you hope for while it really exists. & it's this one-on so don't hesitate please go try it out. These people are amazing, their food is amazing. Even the prices are amazing. One of those restaurants that you feel very happy doing business with you know food is always great so can't go wrong. Get up, get out, go try it out. It's one of the best places you'll thank me. You'll be very happy you try it & once you do & you agree with how good it is the way I'm describing it, then you write up your review & let them know how happy you were as well about their service, food & price. All right so don't wait. You know you want a great pizza tonight or a nice fried chicken or club sign which or anything at all check out their menu. It's really good. Everything is good. One of those places where I know's hard to believe with everything is a good you'll see
It’s only recently that I removed the two stars.
Since they raised their prices, I’ve noticed that they are putting less toppings on their pizza. I love the vegetarian but today I’m going to have to buy some olives before I reheat my pizza because there are practically none.
My husband wants me to find another restaurant because of it & he hates paying so much & NOW he has reason, he says “they can’t raise the price & get cheap with the toppings “
I don’t mind paying for quality food but come on………
Im so disappointed because they are my favourite. We order from Gusta at work too & yes their chicken is amazing but I WANT PIZZA!
Thank you
Struggling fan
The new design is absolutely great. Love what they did with the old tavern. The food is delicious. Tried their Crispy chicken burger & it tasted amazing.
Ordered take out
-
The poutine fries were cheap & were not cooked in a fryer. Disappointed.
-
Ordered the 10inch sub, the meats inside lacked flavour & the chicken was very dry.
-
It costed me 45$ on uber. 15 for poutine & 20 for sub.
-
The only good thing was the free cake after 30$ spent. It was mccain deep & delicious.
It’s my second five star review for this resto order today 11 pieces of fried chicken with fries coleslaw & sauce ($42) large pieces of crispy & great tasting chicken highly recommend this restaurant not just for fry chicken but also for their pizzas
We looooooove their fried chicken. So good. We take the 15 piece family feast. We are a family of 8 & we usually have a few pieces left for the next day. I recommend. Comes with coleslaw, gravy & a family frie
