Gusto Group USA
Everything we do here at Gusto Group, we do with true “gusto,” which is why we chose it to represent who we are. Gusto is about passion, enthusiasm, and a zest for life. When you do something with gusto, you are always rewarded, because you are giving it your all, just like we do.
True "Gusto"
How It Started
Gusto Group is the parent company of our brands, largely within the hospitality industry. All of our brands focus on offering a unique and immersive experience that transports you to other cultures around the globe with just one bite, one sip, one unforgettable moment. This family-owned business was founded in 2020. Our first concept was Toro Kitchen + Bar, which was inspired by our Spanish heritage and love of authentic Spanish cuisine found at popular tapas bars all over Spain.

The inception of Toro and Gusto Group came after Gerardo De Anda, Co-Founder, almost lost his life to a bull named Caramelo during the traditional Running of the Bulls in Pamplona, Spain. Toro put us on the map, now with two locations, but we have since expanded our concepts, including Cuishe and Cellar Mixology, which are equally thematic, immersive and unique, with an international vibe.
