We love this restaurant! From the moment you arrive you are greeted by friendly and helpful staff. The food is delicious and we are so grateful that staff are willing to cater for allergies by adapting their menu and providing so many choices. This also applies to their drinks menu which includes vegan wines. Thank you Holy Basil! We will be back!

Great food, amazing wine list, beautiful breeze through big open windows on a lovely summer evening with friends. This place is a big draw card in The Basin! Staff were super friendly and helpful. They adapted a couple of dishes for us which was fab. Would definitely recommend to others as a good place for a meal to celebrate , or just because!
