The entire staff from beginning to end from being greeted and treated very special by the lovely manager, our sweet waitress Mel, and all staff members who cared for us during our entire dining experience were attentive and delightful! The atmosphere here is fun and has very attractive surroundings! The quality and presentation of all the food and drink were not only eye catching but extremely flavorful! We have been before and continue to have wonderful experiences each time! We shall return again and again! Great dining experience for couples, groups of friends, and families celebrating any type of special occasions!

We had a lovely evening. The service was top notch. Our server was extremely knowledgeable about both the food and wine. The other service staff was friendly, polite, and attentive. It was a great experience.

Last night was the best Valentine’s Day I have ever had! The ambiance at Basta was incredible. The amount of care and attention that went into the decor was second to none! The roses hanging from the ceiling was stunning! Now, let’s talk about the meal, four course prefixed menu for two people and only 150.00!! Are you kidding? The choices were fantastic and the plates came out of the kitchen looking like masterpieces . I had the pistachio encrusted cod with beet gnocchi, fantastic! My guy had flank steak over mashed with vegetables, the meat was cooked beautifully. Our wait staff Alex took great care of us! Can’t wait to go back!

The restaurant is beautifully designed. The service is exceptional and the Food is really top notch. The price is also very reasonable. Our second time there and we will return again very soon!

Christmas Eve dinner. Festive, lively atmosphere without being too loud for easy conversation. Service was excellent, beginning with the accommodation of a late addition guest. Staff was there for every need and question yet never made us feel rushed—even though our meal went past closing. I expected great food and was not disappointed. Oysters were particularly good and French-pressed coffee always adds a great finishing touch. My teenagers had a great time and have a new appreciation for real food. Highly recommend.
