Basil Pizza & Wine Bar

We love Basil! We love their pizza and their wine!!!! It's our favorite Friday night date we often sit at the bar. I love their meatballs and pasta too! Also if you haven't tried it their brunch is AMAZING! Biscuit and Gravy Pizza!!! Also for my vegan friends they have a great menu that caters to all! The servers are always really good and well trained. It's a great spot!

My bad. I consider Mike P our Toledo pizza expert. I usually read his review before checking out pizza spots. Last minute type deal after the comedy show. I did make a reservation.We arrived early due to the show letting out earlier than expected. The hostess checked us in and invited us to check out the bar. Bar has like 6 seats so not much to check out but in direct sight of the hostess when our table is ready. Decent wine list $9-15 per glass and a few craft beers.So now the wait begins. Its about 10 minutes past our reservations. I go back to the hostess n she look like she never saw me before. Said something about maybe they gave the table to a similar name. I told her if there's another Summer in here I want to meet her lol. No apology or anything. She just looked confused?Server was nice n knowledgeable. Unfortunately the best thing I had was the charcuterie. Nice selection of cheeses but a little pricy at almost $20 for a small plate. We got the primo pizza. Pepperoni sausage n mushrooms. Floppy falling apart pizza. Need a fork n knife to eat it. Toppings n sauce completely forgettable. Warmed some up when I got home to cook a little more n still forgettable.Servers box up your food. I personally prefer to do it myself for sanitary reasons but he had already grabbed the pizza n started. Is that what makes this upscale pizza? Now the disappointment with the credit card fee to use a card. If this was mentioned on their website or on the door I would have brought cash. Good server but I tip based on cost of my items, not additional fees added. My man refuses to eat the leftovers so off to the trash. Toledo has so many good pizza places here. Nothing special to see here.

I've been coming here for years and have always loved it. Visit after visit was consistently good. My husband and I had a reservation for Saturday at 6:30. I requested a half booth seat in the back. The hostess sat us at the worst table in the restaurant. I reminded her I requested a seat in the back and she replied "so did a lot of people". There were two empty seats where I requested. I shook it off thinking they were going to use it for a large party. So we sat at the worst table. Five minutes later they sat two women there. Then we ordered the whipped feta appetizer. They brought 4 minuscule pieces of bread. I asked for more bread. They never mentioned an upcharge. We also ordered Margherita pizza. It arrived undercooked.When the bill arrived there was a $4.50 upcharge for a few pieces of tiny bread. One insult after another. We will not be back.

Loved the crust! The pizza is quite good.Also had the Calamari & a 4-cheese ravioli that was excellent.The place is very loud, but as it was very busy I suppose that is to be expected.

When you want a pizza with a little upscale. Delicious drinks are on the menu. Great appetizers for sharing. Great pizza combos, although I wish they were baked longer for a crispy crust. Nice table service and a good vibe. Worth a try.

Great food - various menu options - great service! (I ordered the "primo" pizza). The server was nice and offered wine suggestions. Also, my server was great at allowing me to "take my time" ordering. If I am in this area, I will definitely come to this place again!

I choose this place with high score by yelp for dinner. House was pretty full but they had high table for me alone. In addition of my beer I ordered a Fried calamari for appetizer and Margarita. Just different foods from what I usually eat. The Calamari came but on marinara sauce and mayo on the Calamari. I want sauce on the side and no mayo on the top. I want control how much sauce depends on taste of sauce. Mayo killed all flavors of food. The Margarita looked good but this dow taste so plain without wheat and yeast flavor. Tomato sauce probably house made but too sour. Thus, looking great pizza but taste not. Such a great place and services but sorry just half the star because of the foods.

I LOVE this restaurant. It has an amazing wine selection, great appetizers (the whipped feta dip is to die for and the charcuterie board is fantastic), fantastic salads (the strawberry salad. . OMG) and wonderful pizzas! (KEVIN BACON!) They also happen to have the best patio in the area. It is well shaded and covered from the sun but has a fantastic breeze that hits just right. The patio is well decorated and looks lovely. That being said, I am not really a fan of their brunch. I got crab benedict and for as much as I paid for it, I got practically hard boiled eggs instead of poached. It was awful. I had to send back the eggs and the rest of the food was cold by the time I got the eggs back.

Traveling from Michigan, we chose to have dinner last night (our first time here) where we ordered salads: the Strawberry Fields and another salad that was not on the menu, but offered: it had mixed greens, diced apples, goat cheese, maybe raisins with a balsamic dressing; anyways both were really good. We ordered the Kevin Bacon Pizza (well done) that was extra delicious along with cocktails that topped it off! My husband as very picky with the salad selections and our server, Ashley, suggested it. She was both very pleasant and attentive. The manager, Hallie, stopped to ask about our dining experience and there was no word that would appropriately fit other than "Exceptional"! We ended our dinner with the Flourless Chocolate Cake [warm, gooey goodness topped with whipped cream]. Short wait time, nice ambiance, quiet, timely service, fair price, and worth the experience . Definitely will return. Thank you for helping to make our rare evening out very lovely!

Food was excellent and very fast service. I highly recommend any of the pasta dishes!!
