This place had excellent service. The staff were friendly and warm. Our group came in on Thanksgiving, so there was a fixed menu and I’m not sure if what we had is on their regular menu.
The wine list was extensive and they even had an aglianico variety which is hard to find, but one of my favorites.
Our table ordered main dishes of lamb, steak, and a shrimp. All were cooked perfectly (even our rare lamb and steak). The ravioli and calamari were also great, not too greasy. The lemoncello cake was fantastic. I’m not sure if it was a regular menu option, but I would love to have it again.
This place was lovely, we didnt feel rushed, and the food ans staff made it a great dining experience.

This gorgeous locale is such a charmer, serving as the perfect place to have tapas and/or dinner on a breezy summer evening. Sitting outside on the spacious patio, the authentically rustic decor and atmosphere were simply captivating.

For the tapas and entrees alike, the fantastic portion sizes alone justify the prices. Moreover, every single item was truly rich and delicious, and I savored every single bite. Furthermore, the service is prompt and staff very friendly, making you feel as if you’re conversing with family!

Not only do I recommend this restaurant emphatically, but I hope to return as soon as I can to re-experience it.

I wish I could give it more stars! The food is absolutely delicious. We’ve tried several items on the menu before and we’ve loved them all! Mr. Joseph and his team are all wonderful. From the valet parking to the kitchen, everything was perfect. For Valentine’s, they treated us to 2 glasses of champagne and a chocolate rose, and there was a young man playing piano, which was a nice touch for the night. We had a wonderful evening and can’t wait to go back!

I want to extend my sincere appreciation to Basil. I’m literally eating my meal from there right now, and it is truly exceptional—fresh, well-balanced, thoughtfully prepared, and packed with flavor.

My experience started a little sketchy, but what truly stood out was how the manager handled the situation and completely turned it around. Here’s the tea.

On New Year’s Eve, I placed a DoorDash order, and shortly after, I received a call from Basil letting me know they were closed for the evening. No problem at all—I thanked them and hung up. Unfortunately, the order wasn’t properly canceled through DoorDash, which led to an issue with my refund.

The following day, I called the restaurant, not realizing they had just closed for the afternoon. I missed them by about ten minutes and figured I’d try again later. To my surprise, my phone rang—it was Basil calling me back.

I explained the situation to who I believe was the manager, and without hesitation, he said, “Come on up—I’ll replace your meal, give you a complimentary dessert, and include a salad.”

What stood out most was his warmth and kindness. There was no suspicion, no defensiveness—just genuine hospitality and a clear desire to make things right, which is unfortunately rare these days.

Mistakes happen. What matters is how they’re handled, and Basil handled this exceptionally well. Between the outstanding food and the top-tier customer service, I’ll absolutely be back and will continue to recommend them.

Thank you, Basil.

Joseph was an absolute blessing. I had the perfect date. We returned to this restaurant for a second time, and though a year has passed, it hasn’t lost its charm. This time, I had the pleasure of being served by the owner. He graciously allowed us to sit outside, despite it being January, and even turned on the heaters to make sure we were warm. He treated us to champagne and dessert to celebrate with us, which was such a thoughtful touch.

The food was absolutely delicious! I highly recommend the lamb ribs—so good, we even ordered two extra portions to go! My date loved the toasted ravioli, and I was all about those lamb ribs. We both enjoyed the bread, too. We also tried the two specials: Seafood Risotto and Seared Scallops, both of which were fantastic.

I can’t wait for another opportunity to return to Basil’s. Just thinking about this place brings a smile to my face. You won’t regret giving it a try. I really hope Joseph remembers us when we return because we’re definitely coming back for the same table! xoxo Thank you for making our night so memorable. <3

Excellent warm service above all. What a great late lunch experience, so pleasant, and inviting. So glad i stopped by, and will return & share. Atmosphere was wonderful as well. Food was super fresh and tasty. Had the assorted empanadas & Mediterranean seabass (minus rice). Delicious!

We found this amazing little spot on Google and the find me GF app. I have a real bad gluten allergy and am frequently afraid to try new places.

The menu looked safe, the reviews looked good, so hubby gave the restaurant a quick call. Anna was beyond comforting, told him not to worry, that I would be safe and to come on in (without a reservation)!

I can say enough about our dinner. It is our 12th wedding anniversary. After a long day at the botanical gardens I didn’t want to go anywhere too fancy or pretentious, but we definitely wanted a great meal. They did not disappoint. The service was perfect. Attentive, pleseant, kind.

The food was perfection. The grouper was light, with a buttery texture and paired with grilled veggies. Hubby had the scallops with grits, hands down amazing!

For dessert, we had the gluten free flourless chocolate cake and it did not disappoint! The raspberry sauce added the perfect tartness to complement the creamy chocolate goodness of the cake!

Even the valet was a doll!

We will definitely be back!

So delicious. I love that you can find healthy and delicious food in one meal. We chose to order multiple tapas plates to share with the table. Every dish was beautiful and flavorful.

We had very pleasant encounters with all of the employees. They were attentive to our needs and were very courteous. Instead of serving bread initially like many restaurants do, they brought out a very delicious mini pizza. That was quickly devoured. Our entrees consisted of Mediterranean chicken, North Georgia Trout, and Grilled Alaskan Salmon, all good, it was a fun visit.

Basil has been a part of our family life from way back when. And that’s important, because we have been coming for about two decades or so and it’s just always an amazing wonderful vibe. Great food. Perfect atmosphere. Authentic. Even if it’s for a now 30 -year-been married date. … you feel festive. Really delish vegetarian and vegan options too. Everything is yummy. Enjoy!
