Really good service and great food. Hope they can obtain a liquor license at some point

If could give 10 stars I would! From the moment we entered the restaurant to the moment we left we had a perfect experience. Daphne’s hospitality, right on time assistance, and above and beyond customer service. Everyone who assisted us was on point with their customer service and the food was absolutely perfect. Fresh, from the bread and pesto to the raviolis, there wasn’t anything to fault! Thanks, Sweet Basil! Can’t wait to come back!

Good service, the people were nice. The atmosphere was modern and wasn’t cramped. I just didn’t like he lasagna.

This place is an absolute joke- i had such high hopes after reading many of the reviews, but this us just an incredibly overpriced olive garden.
* After asking the server what she recommended, we ordered the Caesar salad: received a salad with wilted lettuce, 8 croutons, a tiny bit of grated, bland cheese and no dressing. We asked them to take the salad and add the dressing. When we got it back, they had just added olive oil. Do they just not know what a Caesar salad dressing is?
* Grilled salmon with vegetables. Asked to receive the salmon medium - rare, and received the driest piece of salmon we have ever had.
* Cheese ravioli. 5 raviolis for $30 that were overcooked, and just filled with bland ricotta, served under a huge pile of marinara sauce.
* Chicken Parmesan. Very thick piece of chicken, that had somehow been dried to death, and again served with so much tomato sauch, that all the breading had fallen off and become soggy. Even my kids who usually love this dish couldn't get the chicken down. It came with some pasta in a bowl on the side, served with a huge amount of that same tomato sauce. The pasta was of course overdone as well- what kind of Italian restaurant doesn't serve its pasta al dente???
At the end of the meal, our server came and asked if everything was tasty (after seeing we had left more than half of each dish). I couldn't being myself to lie, so I said no, everything was dry and overcooked. She said she was sorry and then left. Just so weird that no one would care to even learn about what was wrong with our meal.

Poor customer service. Will not be returning

Terribly rude front of the house. And they do not offer high chairs or booster seats.

I had a great experience at Sweet Basil in Needham, Massachusetts. The pasta I tried was excellent, and I also enjoyed the clam chowder and calamari. It’s a perfect spot for a more intimate dining experience, and the fact that it’s BYOB adds a unique touch. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a cozy place with delicious food!

Always fantastic. Long time listener but first time review. It’s in a small strip mall, town center. Parking is mostly parallel street parking. Very near to a frozen custard shop. Only slight problem is that they don’t take reservations. It’s first come first serve. The food is Italian and large enough to share around the table. If you order a dish, you are going to ask for a take home box. Comfortable and the staff is there to make sure you have a good time. The restaurant is on the ground floor with an accessible large restroom. They finally have sodas and it’s always been a “Bring your own booze” establishment. Hearty meals that make it difficult to stick to your diet…you will switch your cheat day in order to not miss out. Go again and again.
