Basil Leaf Cafe is a charming Italian restaurant located in Locust Valley on the north shore of Long Island. The food is authentic and well-prepared, with customers raving about the exquisite Italian dishes beautifully served in a lovely atmosphere. The menu offers a variety of options, including a popular penne alla vodka, fresh salads, and a delicious tomato burrata salad that is light for summer. The location feels like a European village, making it a great spot to eat outside in the summer. The outdoor patio is very cozy and inviting, taking diners away and making them feel like they're in another country. It's a charming place with lots of different eating areas, creating an intimate atmosphere. While the service is generally attentive, some customers have noted that the air conditioning could be improved on hot and humid evenings, and the service can be slow at times. Overall, Basil Leaf Cafe is a recommended destination for those seeking a taste of authentic Italian cuisine in a comfortable setting, particularly for special occasions or meals with loved ones, as well as for hosting parties.
