With her creative vision and commitment to providing exceptional hospitality, Janet Zuccarini, the founder and CEO of Gusto 54 Restaurant Group, has revolutionized the culinary industry. Janet’s remarkable ascent from a single Toronto restaurant to a global restaurant empire, for which she was named the Business Woman of the Month for 2025, demonstrates her tenacity, entrepreneurial spirit, and steadfast dedication to excellence.

A Legacy of Innovation

Janet inherited her entrepreneurial spirit from her father, Giacomo Zuccarini, who introduced Toronto’s first wood-burning pizza oven and espresso machine in 1954. This innovative legacy served as the cornerstone of Janet’s professional life. She entered the restaurant industry with Trattoria Nervosa, a Yorkville mainstay that has prospered for more than 27 years. The success of this endeavour served as the impetus for Gusto 54, a pioneering restaurant chain known for its inventive culinary creations.
