    Let me just start by saying that I feel bad for anyone who hasn't eaten at Basils. My partner and I had not only a delectable meal, but we also had a great time. You walk in and are immediately greeted by a lovely hostess, and when we were guided to the dining room it was beautiful! We had the roast lamb and bone in ribeye and my ribeye was so good that I was tempted to just take the bone and gnaw on it once I had eaten all of the tender, juicy meat. I had to stop my partner from doing the same to the roast lamb. The portions you get are huge which makes the prices totally worth it, not that the prices would've been an issue anyway though. We had the pleasure of being served by Aurora who is so attentive and friendly. All of the servers there were friendly and on top of things from what I could see and worked as a team very well. When we spoke to Maggie the manager, we realized that Basils is being managed by someone who really cares about the restaurant, which is part of why it's so enjoyable to go to. Very few restaurants meet my high expectations, and even fewer surpass them. Hats off to the Basils team for managing to not only satisfy but actually impress Jit Blevins, an almost impossible task. We will be coming again soon.
