Reviews The Basil Leaf Restaurant

I’ve been coming here for three years and it never disappoints. The food is always delicious. The ambience is relaxed and very pleasant. Highly recommend.

You won't be disappointed at Basil Leaf. It has the feel of Italy in its outdoor seating, the food is fantastic as well as the professional waiters. Get dressed and go out on a date for a romantic evening and a glass of wine of course!

Absolutely my favorite restaurant you won't find service better in any restaurant.

The menu choices were good. Food was also very good. Prices were a bit high for a place that needed a serious facelift on the outside, with old asbestos shingles and some obvious cheap exterior repair work. We were happily surprised at the hidden courtyard and backyard dining areas. There are also two completely separate interior dining rooms. So why not five stars? I can overlook a somewhat shabby exterior. After all, the service was good too. The problem was the actual host (who might be an owner, not sure). There was no smile or anything welcoming about the way we were greeted. I was sternly asked if I had a reservation, even though the place was at around 30% of capacity, so the question struck me as pretentious and unnecessary. If I were there to join a larger party, I clearly would have shared that information upon entry. We were not given a choice for our table, even though we were the only ones eating in the forward courtyard area. The guy didn't engage with us one bit and didn't even supply menus, so as a former restaurateur, I think he may need to reassess his role there.

The scenery is nice and the food is delicious.
