Gusto in Little Stonegate will open on Thursday (July 13) – and this is what will greet diners.
The refurbishment inside part of the old Mulberry Hall shop has cost the best part of £1 million.
Covering 4,000 sq ft, it has separate bar and dining enough room, with space for up to 120 diners.
Sparkly look
The look is sparkly, with high end finishes, atmospheric lighting, olive trees, art deco glass screens and mirrors.
