“Love Piccolo, Love!” Gussie's is a project of passion inspired by co-owner David Thate's love of Italian cooking and serving friends and family. The inspiration of the restaurant comes from his grandmother Augusta “Gussie". For Thate, recounting the time being in the kitchen with grandma, helping her throw dinner parties for friends and family was always the best time. As Thate grew, he took what he learned not only from his own experiences with Grandma Gussie, but also his great aunts and his own travels to Italy. Gussie's Handmade Italian brings all those experiences together. The goal is to bring the joy of dining together to you by using the freshest ingredients and freshly made traditional Italian pastas. Looking for an old-school classic Chicago dining experience (bourbon cocktails, live jazz, and more)? Check out our sister restaurant, Tortoise Supper Club.

In the 1860s, Goose Island was inhabited mainly by its namesake birds and a few enterprising squatters. Things have changed quite a bit since then, but at heart the island is still a mixture: old and new, high and low, nature and urbanity.

We take this holistic approach in everything we do here, striving to produce events that will echo down the caverns of memory for years to come. We host all sorts of events at Gallery 1028, but never lose sight of the fact that each event is unique, that each event is hugely important. Whether it is your wedding day, a corporate retreat, or anything else, we will ensure that you and your guests experience nothing but the best.
