“Came here with a friend - we got a thin crust pepperoni and the Sicilian with red sauce/pesto/ricotta. Both were very good! My only gripe is there's almost no seating, the water is a bit of a hassle (metal self-serve jug with little plastic cups), and it's expensive.“
“We have eaten here many times, and the food is always delicious. However, this time we had a reservation and we still had to wait 15 minutes to be seated. After salad and appetizers it took almost and hour to receive our entrees. We all ordered pasta dishes and they were over priced and very small portions as well. My son ordered the Lobster special pasta and the pasta portion was child size! There was also a 35.00 corkage fee, which is a little high for a restaurant trying not to be pretentious. This experience reminds us of why we don't eat here that often. The food is delicious, which is probably why we will find our way back eventually!“
“One of the best pizza pies in the hood!!We are pretty picky NYC style lovers of pizza. Even though we are thin crust goers - we were blown away by the DETROIT style here - you must give it a try!!Two locations now - both consistent with the same greatness!“
“11 years passed since my last review, and this restaurant just keeps getting better. I'm getting into its salads, especially the Italian with hard-boiled eggs. The Greek with feta is also very good. I gotta recommend trying the mozzarella sticks. They're a must.“
“Discovered this gem of a restaurant when I was searching online for something to have delivered for dinner. I phoned the restaurant and a friendly voice kindly answered all of the questions I had about the menu. I decided to order the Midnight Pizza and the Downhome Pizza, both “Ma Dukes style” (so yummy!), and a Mama Dukes Salad. We also got Ma Dukes Beignets with Caramel & Flake Salt for dessert. Everything was so fresh and unique and delicious! The pizza crust was perfect with just the right balance of crunch and chewiness. We definitely couldn’t decide which pizza we liked the best and now we can’t wait to try more. Prices were very fair for the quality and quantity. I don’t know how I never knew this place existed before, but it’s absolutely a new favorite!“
“Absolutely amazing place!! The vegan menu is delicious and full of lots of different items like vegan pizza, vegan eggplant parm and vegan bruschettas and many more. The restaurant is beautiful and the service was amazing. We will absolutely be coming back!“
“Food is delicious food, and the service is great, but it's just a little pricey for what it is...Dietary restrictions: Easy for dairy & and gluten-freeParking: It's a strip mall, next to a Ralph's so there's plenty of parking“
“This is by far my favorite place to grab a slice or a sandwich, hands down. The food, especially the Bomber and cheese pizza, is amazing. The ingredients melt in my mouth and provided a symphony of flavor that is unmatched. The owners, Jessica and Tony, are kind, polite, and professional. They really care about making an impact in the community. What a blessing this business is!“
“Some restaurant menus make me feel good, prompted by good ingredients, spotless floors and a staff that understand that it’s as hard to keep a customer as to create a new one.Other places, and you probably know of a few, offer a lot of pastas and entrees, or maybe a few signature dishes that make a place unique, but disappoint when overpaying for a lower experience. I wish them well.But some restaurants surpriseme. I just had lunch at Basta, in Agora’s Whizzin Market and gotta say I’m surprised, and a little miffed.Sure the staff are great with each one genuinely happy I came in. They even smiled. The atmosphere is open, inviting, warm and has a great combination of Mexican blues, warm tones, and wrought iron.I’ve never been here before as Whizzin Market is a little out of the way for me.But in spite of all the reasons it should have all been in the feel good category, my lunch went another direction.I had originally thought to order one of the bowls which cater to veggie, meat, or fish prefs. The Jidori Chicken Bowl seemed my speed which I asked about. My server, Cruz asked if I wanted the roast chicken or the bowl?Roast Chicken is my comfort food and I lost my mind for a beat. Then committed a classic amateur restaurant goer move:The panic order.“Roasted, please,” I heard myself say. Cruz refilled my coffee and disappeared. The dice now rolled, I waited.The chicken was good. No, not just good, but magnificent. So good I felt a mix of relief, surprise and annoyance. None of this was directed at the staff, Basta’s management, or the even the poor chicken.First, being from a small town in Indiana originally, I’ve eaten chicken at least 23x a week since 1970 and I’ve never tasted chicken like this. From the light golden sauce to crispy skin, it was ideally cooked and served immediately. I had no idea. No exaggerating.Second, that this lunch in terms of price point is a super value. Check the menu when you stop in, but you’ll find Basta a wonderful value for the level of care and attention to it all.All that to say, I’m so mad I haven’t been here earlier. Regardless of the distance, it should have been on my list.Consider yourself warned you may feel the same.Parking: Get here early if Canyon Club has a show.“
