Basil Leaf - Syracuse

We had our Christening here on Sunday. The food was delicious, but I felt very rushed Service: Dine in Meal type: Lunch Price per person: $20–30 Food: 5 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 4

Upon arriving we were greeted by a welcoming hostess, our friendly and attentive server Candace was available quickly and checked our table frequently. The food is absolutely some of the best Italian quisine we've had anywhere. Everything was prepared and presented perfectly, portions were ideal, and the value is quite reasonable. Corn chowder with bacon, the day's soup, was ideal in flavor and consistancy. Lasagna will please the most picky connoisseur. We look forward to returning to sample other tempting menu offerings no doubt everything here will be wonderful. A delightful find, with management who clearly value customer service and quality, which makes this an outstanding choice for dining.

The food was amazing! The staff was on top of things. Our glasses were never empty. It was the perfect place to have our 20th anniversary dinner! Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $30–50 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Ambiance was good. Service was slow, and staff didn’t know the menu very well. Ordered angel hair and baked eggplant. Wine order was wrong, and when it came the wine was inferior. Food took a long time to come out, and portions were generous. Pasta was soft, and sauce was chunky with no flavor. Eggplant was advertised as homemade and baked- but tasted fried and was heavily breaded, lightly sauced and had very little flavor. Staff was friendly, but not recommending anyone to this restaurant.
