We had a great time at Bastone for our 2 year anniversary! Not only was the service great and the food delicious, but the staff went above and beyond to make our night special with some extra surprises! Would recommend to anyone looking for an authentic Italian dining experience. Their aperitivo menu is especially a great deal!!

Our group of 6 (women ages 42-78 years old) really enjoyed our first experience here. We were seated quickly, which included accommodations for a wheel chair. The food was fresh and delicious. Everything was seasoned perfectly. We were happy the music wasn’t loud… we could hear it, but could hear each other clearly with a normal speaking tone. We will return!!

Overall a great experience. The server was amazing. The bread is to die for. The oysters were delicious. The peel /eat shrimp appetizer was great. The octopus appetizer was great. We also had the she crab soup, the mushroom side, the hushpuppy side. The entrees were the scallops dish and the flounder dish. Overall great. The wait time between dishes seemed very long. Not a place to go if you are on a tight schedule for event after dinner. Suggestion may be to order everything early on and let them glow it. Definitely will be back for oysters and appetizers.

The food was awesome but the servers were a bit over zealous on removing plates and drinks without asking if we were done.
