“📅 08.25.25 WRITTEN REVIEW Big Al’s Reel Reviews – Episode 154 Pink Basil 💎 Village of Mystic Connecticut (Olde Mistick Village) Mystic you didn’t disappoint me tonight. Pink Basil came through in a major way. From the moment I walked in the atmosphere was buzzing with energy, families locals and tourists all enjoying the Village vibe. The food the service and the whole experience had me locked in from start to finish. By the end of this meal there was no question… this one goes down as a Big Al’s 💎 Gem Spot. Service & Atmosphere: The service here was absolutely top notch. My host Payton got me started right. My server Mark handled everything perfectly... attentive professional and just an all around wonderful guy. Flora also stepped in with great support and I even got a photo with Travis the bartender. Behind the sushi counter two chefs were working hard and delivered rolls that blew me away. The whole team made this meal stand out. The atmosphere inside Pink Basil is vibrant and welcoming.... it’s clear why this place stays busy. Here’s what I lined up for this visit: 1️⃣ Shrimp Tempura Sushi Roll 6 pcs- $13.95 Crispy flavorful and the perfect start. 💣 Bomb 2️⃣ Salmon Sushi Roll 6 pcs- $8.95 Even better than the tempura absolutely delicious. 💣 Bomb 3️⃣ Cashew Nut with Chicken- $17.95 Crispy chicken with onions carrots sauce and rice. Perfect balance of flavor and texture- exciting the palate. 💣 Bomb 4️⃣ Khao Soi with Duck- $26.95 Flavors exploding textures amazing. Absolutely delicious in every form. 💣 Bomb 5️⃣ Spicy Chili Garlic Noodles with Beef- $16.95 Bold flavors great spice cooked perfectly. 💣 Bomb ✅ Final Take: Pink Basil delivered a flawless performance. Every single dish earned a bomb the service was incredible and the atmosphere was on point. This is what I call the full package- food that excites staff that cares and a vibe that makes you want to come back. For me that makes Pink Basil a certified Big Al’s 💎 Gem Spot. ☝🏾❤️- Big Al Mayo “See you on the Rebound Peace✌🏾out”“
“Some of the best picture perfect Chinese food I’ve ever had! The pork and shrimp wonton soup had actual homemade wontons and was very delicious. The general tso chicken was crispy and very flavorful the best I’ve ever had. Can’t wait to return. Side note the portions are massive and in turn the prices are a bit up there but you definitely get what you pay for so go with a group of people.“

“Ahhh…Niantic. Restaurants here do not need to work hard because Niantic itself is a joyful place. My Chicken Teriyaki dinner ($18) was excellent. Moist chicken, lovely presentation with broccoli florets ringing the chicken, carrot rounds (perfect) under the chicken, just the right amount of sauce and jasmine rice. A small salad with delicious dressing although it had that baffling watery quality and miso soup that was lukewarm preceded the dinner. My companion had the excellent Thai rice with chicken. The high top was wobbly. That’s the worst thing you can say about the experience. So easy to fix. I had the generous ginger martini, my partner enjoyed the Sam seasonal. It being Saturday of the Niantic Light Parade, we had an excellent view of the festivities-hence a 5 star atmosphere. In daylight, from our table, one can see the Niantic Bay. The young host attempted to shim the bottom of the table. Our server was pleasant. The loud blond server was not. It’s been a minute since we’ve visited The Spice Club. It’s worth another trip next time we’re thinking of Asian Fusion or Sushi.“

“This review is long overdue. This is my family’s go-to Chinese take out spot. The staff is so friendly and the food is top tier. We’ve ordered pretty regularly this last year and have never been disappointed.
Suggestions: crab rangoons, house lo mein, house fried rice & orange chicken.“

“I took my wife and kids there for my wife's birthday. Worst experience we've ever had at a hibachi. Extremely over priced to start with. The cooking part was awful. There was no vegetable toss even though they were prepared and ready on the cart. The cook also did not do the sake part or offer water for the kids. The food had a very bland taste to it . The server never even checked on us we had to get their attention to get a glass of water. My wife was extremely disappointed and so we're our kids. I asked to speak with the manager, and was told our chef was the manager. Overall it was a very disappointing experience and would not recommend.“
