Real Gusto Medford

Real Italian Gusto in Medford is only open for lunch now on Saturdays. They don't have any lunch menu but are serving from the dinner menu.

There are still a few free parking spots around, so you don't have to use Medford's infernal parking meters.

Big bar in the entrance. This is a very elegant looking restaurant.

I got bread that was cold and very dense. The table was never cleared. Nice napkins and silverware.

From the dinner menu, I picked the PAPPARDELLE ALLA BOLOGNESE ($19.50). "Classic Bolognese sauce". The pasta is made in house and was nicely cooked but unsalted. The sauce was very good and thick enough to stick to the pasta. It was a very pleasant dish, but it needed salt and pepper.

The dining room in the back is also very pleasant.
