" On my first visit, I was impressed by the decor and service at Basilico, but the food did not meet my expectations. The chicken was dry, and the pasta was bland. There is potential here, but I think they need to refine their recipes for better authenticity. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited Basilico on a Saturday night, very busy but they managed to provide decent service. The seafood risotto was a bit off, lacking depth of flavor. I enjoyed the ambiance and it was nice to see so many diners enjoying their meals. I might return on a weekday for a quieter experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" Unfortunately, my experience at Basilico did not live up to my expectations. The wait for our food was excessively long—over an hour, which felt quite disappointing given how busy it was. When it finally arrived, my lasagna was lukewarm at best. The service, while apologetic, didn't seem to alleviate the frustrations of waiting. I would recommend they work on timely service. " (*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*)
