    Food was delicious and the portions were generous. The ossobuco was tender and served with a delicious bean and tomato ragu while the fusilli with pesto was full of fresh flavors.

    My wife’s lamb was perfectively cooked….pink. My Veal was outstanding, it was actually a veal chop & cooked to perfection….a nice bottle of vine at a competitive & realistic price….staff were professional & friendly. From where I was seated I could see the chef working very hard….no tantrums, no shouting, knew his job and got on with it. BOOK THIS RESTAURANT, you will not be disappointed .

    Food was good. Ambiance was a bit lower scale than expected, very touristy (giant pixelated image of duomo on wall). Brucceta was ok. Pizza (buffalo mozzarella and cotto ham was good. Ragu was tasty, similar to others we have had, pasta cooked well, meat sauce rich and flavorful.

    8.5/10

    I decided to try this restaurant based on reviews. The staff were very helpful, the setting was comfortable enough. For those who have not experienced Nonna's authentic cooking, I can understand why reviewers would say that the food was excellent. For me, it was good, not outstanding. I started with porcini mushrooms and polenta. It was ok. The salmon was also ok. The cantucci and Vin Santo was typical. The prices are similar to other restaurants. I can appreciate that food reviews are very subjective and based on an individual's particular preferences. That being said, my il Basilico was ok.

    This was our best dining experience during our Florence vacation. Our server, Stil, was exceptional. They were able to accommodate a gluten allergy. The food was absolutely incredible. Just an overall fantastic night at Il Basilico.
