    We had chosen the day and time to get a quiet place for our celebration. Did not disappoint (except for a couple whose toddler threw a fit for a number of minutes -- we are beyond that point but have all been there!). Food was excellent, service was mostly unobtrusive, and we had time to talk. I have not been disappointed on any of my visits to Basil's.

    We went to basils on our way to Paramount Theater. We arrived at 6 and the restaurant was mostly quiet - not many diners yet. The service was slow and our waitress returned infrequently- made our show but no time to spare. Portions were generous. Most of our group liked their food. Mousaka was good - not great. Same with the Chicken Fettuccini.

    Excellent Greek menu. The lamb shanks are unmatched in our experience. Huge, tender, flavorful, almost perfect. We have never had less than a wonderful meal and we have to drive 3 hours to get there from Iowa. Very good staff and excellent at handling special occasions.
