I really got lucky having such a great place open up so close to my home. The pasta, pizza and sandwiches we have tried are hands down some of the best I have ever had. The porketta sandwich is my favorite. The pork is very flavorful and tender. I highly recommend this restaurant.

We have ordered take out a few times from Basilico, and we are always extremely impressed by how fresh, and delicious their food is. The fried calamari is a favorite appetizer, and the pizza is very good. We have tried a couple of sandwiches, and entrees, and are never disappointed!

Found this place on a whim and decided to order through Yelp. While the food was amazing and I'll get into that in a second I'll pick up rather than get delivery next time. $17 delivery fee (after all the fees and tip) is absolutely unacceptable but that is not on the restaurant. Anyway, the food... amazing. We got the Burrata caprese salad, grilled octopus tentacle, and the Puntanesca pizza. The burrata was perfect and the tomatoes and arugula just complemented it in the best way. This is absolutely going to be a staple for me moving forward. The octopus was butter. I don't know if they soaked it in milk or what but man oh man that thing was heaven. The Puntanesca pizza was great but it was definitely too salty. Olives, capers and anchovies is just a bit too overpowering. The anchovies were also overly fishy when they should have been more subtle. No big deal at the end of the day as the thin crust and lovely tomato purée sauce on the pizza was perfect and the way a proper pizza should be. I won't order this particular pizza again but they know what they are doing so I'll try a different style next order. All in all this food is serious and the prices are too good to pass up. Give them a try if you want some proper Italian food, you won't be disappointed. My only request... tripe! I think some buttery Italian style honeycomb tripe in a red sauce would be perfect on this menu.

We tried this place tonight for the first time. We had 2 pizzas and they were absolutely fantastic: good light dough , tasty sauce and amazing mozzarella! If you are looking for an authentic Neapolitan style pizza in the area, this is definitely the place!!

Great local gem of a spot. We take out since it's local to us. Definitely a level way above standard pizza. The salmon puttanesca entree was amazing. Also all the appetizers were on point. I highly recommend

Went here for dinner with my fiancé. The salad, pizza, and bread were fantastic. The texture of our octopus appetizer was off (chewy) but the flavor was there. Good addition to the area and looking forward to going back.
