Montagu's Gusto

Montagu's Gusto is a low-key Murray Hill deli celebrated for its massive, generously stacked sandwiches prepared with personal care by its friendly Uruguayan owner. The shop is most famous for its asado-style grilled steak sandwiches topped with fresh homemade chimichurri, such as the Charrua Bravo, alongside creative offerings like the Corona with brie and fig tahini, and chicken cutlet options like Jack's Gusto.

Commenters are generally enthusiastic about the food's visual appeal and the quality of the steak, though some note prices can feel high for everyday dining. A few critical diners point out that actual portions are standard rather than oversized, while others critique bread choices like untoasted Kaiser rolls or note occasional over-salting.
