" As someone who loves Italian cuisine, I approached Quanto Basta with excitement and left feeling quite satisfied! The decor and ambiance were outstanding, creating an upscale dining experience. We tried a mix of appetizers, and the arancini was definitely a highlight. For entrees, I had the pasta primavera. It could’ve used a little more seasoning, but overall, I enjoyed the meal. The service was friendly, and it’s definitely worth returning to sample more of their offerings. " (*Curated Review*)

" Our dinner at Quanto Basta was lovely, but I had mixed feelings about the flavors. While the ambiance was classy and the service attentive, the spaghetti puttanesca was rather bland and lacked the punch I was hoping for. It felt like it was missing something essential. The starters were delightful; however, and the wine list was extensive. Still, I'd be willing to give it another shot to see if I could find a dish that wowed me more! " (*Curated Review*)

" We found this place on a whim and it turned out to be one of the best decisions we made during our trip. Everything from the atmosphere to the food was exceptional! The calamari appetizer was easily the best I’ve had, tender and seasoned just right. My partner had the shrimp scampi and kept raving about how delicious and well-balanced the flavors were. The ambiance felt upscale yet comfortable—ideal for a romantic evening. Service was prompt, and the staff genuinely seemed interested in making sure we had a great experience. We're already planning our next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" We're regulars at Quanto Basta and always find something new to love! The staff is familiar with us, which adds a nice personal touch. Recently we ordered the seafood risotto which was out of this world! Each grain of rice was perfectly cooked, and the dish was filled with succulent shrimp and scallops. The atmosphere adds to the overall experience with its warm lighting that sets a romantic mood. Look no further for a great Italian meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" I'm generally picky with Italian food, but Quanto Basta impressed me with its meal. The atmosphere was vibrant yet cozy, making it a great spot for a Saturday night out. I savored the risotto, which was creamy and rich, accompanied by beautifully cooked shrimp. The service was quite admirable; our server made us feel right at home. Overall, I'd recommend trying this place out for an authentic Italian dining experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" Quanto Basta is the quintessential spot for an elegant dining experience. We enjoyed a fantastic medley of dishes that included the grilled octopus—cooked to perfection, slightly charred, complementing the flavors beautifully. The atmosphere is relaxed but upscale, making it an ideal spot for both romantic dinners and family gatherings. We appreciated the attentive service level; our server guided us through the wine options and food recommendations. I left feeling entirely satisfied and looking forward to my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" Sadly, my experience at Quanto Basta did not live up to the hype. While the restaurant itself is charming, the menu does not accurately represent authentic Italian cuisine. I had the baked ziti, and to be honest, it tasted more like a mediocre casserole than anything resembling the traditional dish. The staff was friendly, but service was slow. I wanted to love this place, but I was left feeling disappointed. " (*Curated Review*)
