The large caesar salad was enough for two of us and really good. The shrimp, scallops, linguini and marinara was terrific and we were able to share one between the both of us also. Service was spot on and we will be back very soon.
Had a great date night at Basil Leaf, when we arrived we were the only ones in the restaurant and it was perfect, our server was very kind and nice! We had a glass of moscato (one of the best I’ve had) and a vanilla porter which also was great and I dislike beer, started off with mussels, had a great taste and the sauce was phenomenal, and we ended it with a rigatoni! We loved every bite and can’t wait to come back again!
Amazing food. Amazing. And Onur was an incredible server. We found thia gem by accident, but we will be back. And back again!
