Basso is a sharp-looking space with some food and service annoyances to remedy. The bistro-pub options are, at their best, interesting and creative and lip-smackingly satisfying. (Evan S. Benn) Read more

food is actually delicious. However, they shouldn't take 8:30 reservations only to tell customers they have to order all food & drinks by 8:45 & be out by 9 & keep asking "are you done yet?"

Jana Inman

Very cool atmosphere; a winding staircase to underground, great smelling, warm industrial cellar. Menu will not disappoint !! I will be back!

Great asparagus for appetizer and Pizza for entrée. You can customize your own.

Park on street to avoid having to pay for Valet . That said, seems like a swell joint.
