    Food was good. It's not the place for a special occasion. It was clean. The ambiance was plain at best. I was extremely disappointed.

    Basilico is always great. We enjoyed the calamari, pasta dishes and a delightful cheesecake for dessert.

    Had the prime rib roast special for the night. It came with mash potatoes broccoli and Yorkshire pudding. First I had to ask if there was a special, it sounded great who doesn't love a traditional English meal. when the food came, it was served without the Yorkshire pudding. I had to ask for it prime rib roast was cold quickly fried on one side to warm it up. Broccoli was undercooked, and the Yorkshire pudding was hard as a rock and still frozen in the middle, the whole meal was served without gravy . Honestly, one of the worst meals I've had in years.

    Not what I was expecting. Not authentic Italian. The interior reminded me of an old English pub where the carpets smell of mold and spilt beer. Unfortunately, I’d not recommend this place.
