" I recently tried Basil Brick Oven Pizza and I must say it was a mixed experience. While the food was good, I was hoping for a more authentic taste. I ordered the pesto pasta, which was flavorful, but I've had more authentic versions elsewhere. The atmosphere was lively, but our server seemed a bit overwhelmed, and it took longer than expected for our drinks to arrive. I appreciate the quality of food, but there is room for improvement in service. Overall, decent, but I'm not rushing back. " (*Curated Review*)

" Basil Brick Oven Pizza is a delightful restaurant that delivers on flavor and atmosphere. I enjoyed their pasta dishes which were authentic and packed with flavor. On my last visit, I ordered the pesto pasta with chicken, which was creamy and satisfying. The service was consistently friendly, and the setting is cozy, making it the perfect spot for casual dining. I also indulged in their ricotta cheesecake which was to die for. A really enjoyable dining experience overall! " (*Curated Review*)

" Impressed by our dinner at Basil! We went for a special occasion and were met with beautiful décor and a welcoming atmosphere. We shared a variety of dishes including appetizers and pizza. The flavors were amazing and you could tell the ingredients were fresh. I was pleasantly surprised that the prices were very reasonable. Our server was friendly and helpful, always making sure we had everything we needed. I would highly recommend Basil to anyone looking for authentic Italian cuisine! " (*Curated Review*)

" Unfortunately, my experience did not live up to my expectations. I visited Basil on a busy Friday evening. While the atmosphere was lively, I found the wait for our order quite long. When our food finally arrived, my pizza was cold and lacked flavor, which was disappointing. It felt as though it had been sitting out before getting served. However, the service was polite and attentive despite the rush. I hope my visit was just a one-off and would give it another try sometime. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had the most incredible evening at Basil Brick Oven Pizza! The moment I walked in, I was greeted with warm, friendly smiles. The ambiance is so inviting with its cozy decor and soft lighting. I ordered the Margherita pizza, and it was simply divine. The crust was perfectly charred and the toppings were fresh and flavorful. I could really taste the quality of the ingredients. For dessert, we tried the Tiramisu and it was the cherry on top of a perfect meal! I will definitely be back soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I went to Basil Brick Oven Pizza yesterday and was excited to try their signature pies. The staff was welcoming and seated me promptly. I ordered the eggplant and ricotta pizza, which was tasty but had a little too much cheese for my preference. The ambiance is casual yet nice for dinner dates, but I found the prices to be on the higher side compared to other pizzerias in Astoria. I'd probably give it another shot but maybe try a different pie next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at Basil was a bit disappointing. The server forgot a couple of dishes, and it took a long time for us to get them, which was frustrating. The atmosphere was nice, but unfortunately, my pizza was undercooked and lacked seasoning. I had high hopes based on the reviews, but it didn't live up to my expectations. That being said, the service staff was polite and accommodating when I brought it up. I might consider giving it another shot in the future. " (*Curated Review*)
