Food was okay but definitely won’t be returning due to the terrible service we had. Our waiters name was Cruz. He wasn’t friendly and short when asked questions. He seemed more interested in waiting on other tables and didn’t provide good service.

I almost want to give it 1 star in the hope it doesn’t continue becoming more and more popular. Delicious pasta, amazing pizza, and outrageous steaks. It’s so so good. My kids are picky eaters and they would crush Basta 10 nights out of 10. My favorite thing is the non Italian waiters who still say things super Italian and it’s like, “you don’t have to speak Italian to impress me. I’m already sold. And what did you just say again?” You know what I mean? Amazing place.

Hate to give 1 star because the food was really good but our personal experience was disappointing. We were so excited to try this place drove 30 minutes, waited 60 minutes to be seated (which still no problem) but then got sat next to the broom closet and a drunk screaming table. Just sucks to wait so long for such a bad table and to be sat as a couple on date night next to party table and the crying babies. So we ate as fast as we could and rushed out.

The service was great and friendly! I had high expectations for the food and although it was good- I didn’t feel that the steak was superb compared to other steak houses. It’s okay to try out though if you’re in the area.

Absolutely amazing food. Eating the burrata pizza, pasta is amazing and service is excellent. Definitely the real deal.
The food was okay. We felt that the braised short ribs should at least have come with a little bit of a salad or something.

❤️🇮🇹 ITALY 🇮🇹❤️ BASTA is a must-visit for anyone craving authentic Italian food. Dining here is an experience you won’t forget—especially if you eat family style!
From the moment we arrived, we were treated to a delightful array of fresh bread dipped in flavorful olive oil. The salads were vibrant and bursting with flavor, and the beef carpaccio melted in my mouth. The homemade pasta was perfectly cooked and paired with sauces that tasted like they were crafted straight from Mama’s kitchen.
And don’t even get me started on the dry-aged steaks ! The presentation was stunning, and the taste was out of this world—juicy, tender, and seasoned to perfection.
But the real showstopper? The pistachio lava cake. It is truly to die for! With a rich, gooey center that oozes with pistachio goodness, every bite felt like a slice of heaven. Paired with a scoop of gelato, it was the perfect ending to an already fantastic meal.
I've been to Basta several times and I am always excited to. This restaurant is a true destination for anyone who loves amazing food and Italian atmosphere.

I recently visited BASTA Restaurant in Agoura Hills and it truly lived up to its great reputation. The menu offers a wonderful selection of authentic Italian dishes at very reasonable prices. I started with the mussels, which were fresh and perfectly seasoned, and followed with a classic pasta that was full of flavor.
The relaxed, casual vibe makes it easy to settle in and enjoy, while the staff are friendly and attentive without ever rushing you. For dessert, the tiramisu was light and decadent, and the butterscotch dessert is a must-try—rich, smooth, and absolutely delicious.
If you’re looking for a spot that combines genuine Italian flavors with warm service and a welcoming atmosphere, BASTA is a fantastic choice.

Amazing! 2.5lb princess is perfect for me with my son. Every bite is enjoyable. The cauliflower is probably the best I've ever had! Very large portion too. The mussels has a little spicy kick, perfect soup. Alls the best
