" Basil has fantastic food, and I have returned multiple times! The pasta dishes are very flavorful and crafted with high-quality ingredients. The ambiance is also nice, perfect for casual gatherings. I'd recommend making a reservation, especially during peak hours. Great spot for Italian food lovers! " (*Curated Review*)

" We tried Basil on a whim and were pleasantly surprised by the variety on the menu! I selected the seasonal risotto, but the flavor didn’t quite hit the mark for me; it was a tad underwhelming for the price. The service was friendly and the atmosphere was laid-back, which I appreciate, but I think I’d explore other options next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had lunch at Basil and was really looking forward to it! However, the food didn't quite hit the mark for me. The ravioli was okay but not mind-blowing. The portion size was smaller than expected for the price. On a positive note, the ambiance is lovely and the staff was quite friendly. " (*Curated Review*)
