Basta is a popular restaurant among diners, offering excellent service and outstanding food. The menu may be simple, but each dish is perfection, from the burrata to the winter pizza. The flavors are top-notch, even in the vegetable dishes like Brussels sprouts and carrots. While the food is exceptional, dining in comes with a 20% gratuity, which can lead to less-than-stellar service. For those with dietary restrictions, ordering to go might be a safer bet to avoid unexpected charges. The wood-fired atmosphere and authentic Italian vibes make this Boulder gem special. The service is often described as spectacular, with a team effort in food delivery, beverage refills, and table clearing. The server is knowledgeable about the wine curation, and the pricing for the food is fair, with well-balanced flavor profiles. Despite some service issues, Basta's reputation for delicious, creative cuisine is well-deserved.
