Nearly an hour wait for two servings of pasta - they are not properly staffed. It’s a shame given the food was great (at least I think it was although we were very hungry by the time the food arrived).

Basil is a truly excellent restaurant. First and foremost, the food is very high quality, expertly prepared. Service is prompt and friendly without an attitude, very pleasant ambiance. Relaxing and thoroughly enjoyable.

A wonderful place to eat. Great food, and a friendly staff. Tucked away from the street, so it's very private.
