    The restaurant deserves its high reputation. The Rack of Lamb was incredibly delicious and the Caesar Salad was way above par and served in a unique presentation…simple but perfect!

    Our waitress was so distracted by some issues at home that it significantly affected the service. She eventually left and transferred our table to her manager. We ordered three appetizers to share which were delivered En Masse. My entree was cool and when I asked for it to be warmed up, it was refused. When asked if I wanted another cocktail, I politely said not at the present time, my drink was then removed from the table before I had a chance to finish it. The food was overall fine. My favorite dessert was very mealy which was disappointing. The overall experience was unfortunate and very OFF. We shall not return.

    Sweet Basil has never disappointed us for lunch or dinner. Consistently excellent cuisine and great staff. The french onion lasagne appetizer was over the top decadent! DELISH!

    Ordered the striped Bass, unfortunately it was under cooked. Really disappointed with the experience. Staff were very attentive and did compensate with free desert and pre dinner drinks.

    Always a great meal at Sweet Basil. We celebrated our anniversary last night at Sweet Basil. The food was delicious. Highly recommend the steak tarter / bone marrow and the Caesar salad, oh and the whipped feta!! For main course we had the Colorado Drum and the roasted duck - Both excellent!! Our server was very good knowledgeable about food and wine. Overall, we had a fantastic night.
