   We had an amazing experience! It was our first time going to this restaurant after seeing many reviews. We tried several things to share and every thing was delicious! The French onion lasagna with truffles and citrus salad were a great start! The beef and broccoli + Colorado striped bass were excellent! The service was great, as well! Highly recommended.

   We’ve been going to Sweet Basil for 20 years and watched it through the ups and downs. Definitely on the down again. Inattentive staff where we had to ask if we had a waiter. When our waiter finally bothered to show up, seemed disinterested and unfriendly. Poor communication between staff. Apps and food came out lukewarm and obviously had been sitting there for awhile. Flavors were great but this place is obviously trading on its past reputation. Not worth what they charge until they get the front of the house together and many of our friends have had the same experience.

   Megan was our waitress and she was a 12/10. We took every single recommendation she gave us and she did not miss a beat. Her level of hospitality and knowledge of the menu was exceptional and her spirit for good food and good service prevailed the whole meal. The food was absolutely mindblowning and the presentations were delightful. Would definitely come back.

   Fantastic! I have been coming here occasionally since I was a child (with my parents) and now as an adult. Never disappoints.

    I was underwhelmed by our experience. Our appetizers were great but our entrees were not. We both got the beef and broccoli, one with filet and one with short rib. The sauce was entirely too salty. I was done after a few bites. The best part of the meal was def the dessert. That redeemed the meal at least.

    Thank you for sharing your honest feedback. We're sorry to hear that the entrees didn’t meet your expectations, especially with the saltiness of the sauce. We truly value your input and will be sure to address this with the kitchen team. On a positive note, we're thrilled you enjoyed the dessert! We hope you'll give us another chance to provide a better experience in the future.
