" Visiting from out of state, a friend recommended this restaurant, and I was blown away! The pasta was exquisite, with generous portions and unique flavors. Service was attentive, and the atmosphere felt authentic and cozy. I will definitely make it a point to return next time I am in town. " (*Curated Review*)

" Hands down the best Italian restaurant around! Their pasta is always cooked al dente, and I appreciate that everything is made to order. I was skeptical about the lack of wine on-site, but BYOB is a fantastic idea! Make sure to try the Nutella pizza for dessert—it’s life-changing! " (*Curated Review*)

" An absolute delight! If you crave authentic Italian, then you have to come here. The owners handcraft each dish with so much care. The restaurant feels like home, with warm decor and friendly service. I came in hungry and left completely satisfied after that incredible seafood pasta! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited for a quick lunch and was pleasantly surprised! The portion sizes for the sandwiches are quite generous, almost enough for two meals. The flavors are fresh and vibrant, and I loved that it felt like a family-owned establishment. Can't wait to try the dinner menu next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" A quaint restaurant with great flavors. Although the service was a bit slow on a busy night, the amazing flavor of the food more than made up for it. The lasagna was rich and satisfying, making it a perfect comfort meal. Would definitely suggest to anyone looking for authentic Italian fare. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a decent experience but felt it fell short of my expectations. While the food was good, it wasn’t exceptional, and the service was a bit slow. There was a lack of attention from the staff, but hopefully they'll improve on this in the future. Worth a visit nonetheless. " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing all the rave reviews, I had to try Basil & Garlic. They did not let me down! Every dish was fresh and flavorful, and the desserts were divine. The only downside was that it was a bit cramped, but that just shows how popular it is. I would recommend getting there early if you want to avoid the wait. " (*Curated Review*)
