" Basilico is an absolute gem. The baked ziti was cheesy and comforting, just like my Italian grandmother used to make! Prices are fair considering the quality of the ingredients. I also appreciated that they have a BYOB policy, which allows us to enjoy our favorite wine. I can't recommend this place enough! " (*Curated Review*)

" A hidden gem in a busy area. The food is authentic and absolutely delicious. The staff is friendly and accommodating. The seafood dishes are particularly noteworthy; I loved the shrimp fra diavolo! Highly recommend to anyone looking for quality Italian food! " (*Curated Review*)

" Basilico never fails to impress! I've had the gnocchi, and it was just heavenly—so soft and flavorful. The environment is perfect for a romantic dinner. I also appreciate the BYOB option, which makes it even better! Highly recommend to anyone who appreciates authentic Italian. " (*Curated Review*)

" After a long wait, I wasn’t disappointed by the mushroom ravioli; it was fantastic. The flavor combinations were superb. The ambiance is great for a date night, very romantic and intimate. My only note is the wait times could be smoother. Will return again soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" The atmosphere at Basilico is lovely, and the food is good, but I was slightly disappointed. My carbonara lacked the creaminess that I expected. The service was average; the staff was friendly but seemed overwhelmed. I might give it another try, hoping for better luck next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Every meal at Basilico has been a delight! I've never had a less than amazing experience here. From fresh ingredients to comforting entrees, the authenticity truly shines through. The desserts are always a great way to wrap up the meal. Can't wait to return for another round! " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been to Basilico a few times, and every visit feels like a culinary journey. The Beef Rib I ordered was tender and beautifully seasoned. Plus, the waitstaff made sure we had everything we needed without being intrusive. The only critique I have is that the dessert portion was a bit small for the price. " (*Curated Review*)
