Commercial Details and Asking Price
The establishment is being handled by commercial property brokers who have listed the business for sale as a going concern. While specific financial disclosures regarding the restaurant’s annual turnover remain confidential within the private sale memorandum, the listing encompasses the fully equipped dining room, commercial kitchen installations, and the existing leasehold interest for the Wicklow premises.
Shifts in the Wicklow Restaurant Sector
The departure of Gusto Italiano’s owner reflects ongoing transitions within County Wicklow’s independent food and beverage sector.

Future Outlook for the Premises
Prospective buyers are currently viewing the site to evaluate its potential for continued Italian cuisine or alternative culinary concepts. Selling agents anticipate considerable interest from experienced restaurateurs seeking an established footfall in Wicklow, though no formal acquisition timeline has been finalized as negotiations proceed.
