For all everyone if you are trying to eat from a place that Adam is the manager is hiring every week ,you have to understand something is wrong!
I hadn't dined at the Basil Leaf in locust valley for a very long time and I'm so happy I returned there for a birthday celebration. The outdoor patio is very cozy and inviting. It takes you away and makes you feel like you're in another country. It's a charming place with lots of different eating areas so it feels very intimate no matter where you are. The food was very good and they have so much on the menu. (It's almost overwhelming.) The service was very good and the desserts were excellent as well. Nice place to catch up with friends over a good meal.

Top restaurant in the North Shore, has been here since the early 90’s and I’ve been going my entire life. Having just moved back to the area I’m happy to be a constant customer of this amazing establishment again. The staff is the same, the recipes are the same. All the dishes are extremely consistent. Local celebrities without saying names are customers. It’s one of those red sauce joints that just hits the spot every time without breaking the bank in an unreasonable way. Whenever you’re looking for a solid Italian experience basil leaf and it’s service never disappoint. These employees live for this as if it’s a cottage industry they all sleep in. The passion shows through the food.

It’s incredible how one toxic manager can ruin what could have been a lovely experience. The place is charming, the food is good and our waitress was absolutely wonderful. But the manager? Shockingly rude, aggressive, and completely unprofessional. We are never coming back!

If you are looking for a manager who will answer your questions in a respectful and professional way don’t expect this from Adam . Extremely rude , arrogant and unapologetic in his behavior .
Great place, Great food!

I have been here a few times, and this is the first time I felt that my wife and I, along with two of our friends, were rushed.

The manager refused to seat me and my girlfriend outside with my two service dogs. He was being extremely disrespectful and wouldn’t even let us speak and starting yelling “No dogs” before we even stepped foot into the restaurant. Super disappointed and will never give my business to this rude institution.

First-time customer. Service slow with bringing in the bread. Food was 4/5. It was very empty for lunch. For the steep prices, it was annoying to hear two females doing their business transactions there. Such a shame for such a nice place. Oh and as you read what you like off the menu in English, the waiter says it in really bad Italian as he writes down your order. Again, classy place, but where is the classy service and classy environment?
