YUMMY YUMMY PIZZA!!! My boyfriend is a PIZZA fanatic and orders from here ALL the time... He always asks for the pizza to be a bit over cooked so that the crust is crunchy... And boy is it ever.... Crispy crunchy crust... DELISH... Very good pizza... And their Chicken Parmesan meal is pretty good as well... I usually get it with pink sauce... YUM!!! read more

Ordered my pizza an hour and a half ago... still not here ... called them and seems they forgot about it. Very organized.

So I never ate at Basanis before and I order it go. I ordered the chicken francese; I must say it was very delicious. I was pretty disappointed in the portion size though, I don't think they give you enough chicken. You also get two garlic rolls and a side of pasta with either the red sauce or the white alfredo sauce. I went with the Alfredo. The Alfredo was good, but a little to thick for me. Overall i was really pleased with the meal. I would have given it for stars but the portion size really bothered me. I have attached some photos of the yummy meal. Please note the size of the fork in retrospect to the chickem to give you a feel of the portion size. read more

Best Chicken Parm sandwich since I was a kid in NYC. Grew up eating chicken parm sandwiches in NYC and these are even better. Could not recommend any higher. Looked all over Miami and finally found a decent chicken parm sandwich. Open for pickup or delivery during the crisis. Highly recommend.. read more

Food was good but service was TERRIBLE. I had literally to ask for my water, bread and plastic bag. Lady (Alexia) was all over the place with just 2 tables to serve. Oh I actually had to ask for the parmesan chess on my pasta. No a good experience over all. I hope the owner takes notes of this and makes the appropriate changes , im sure her terrible service is a factor of revenue loss. read more

I used to like this place because of their pasta specially the alfredo and meat sauce pasta. But they lost my business, they have mess up the order in the passed and did nothing and this time they didn't put any chicken in my alfredo and charged me for it when I called they say they couldn't do anything about it because they where closed (dont understand why they pick up if they where closed) not to mention thier pizza sucks. If you want pizza this is not the place. read more

Absolutely everything is delicious, but I have to say, my all time favorite is the baked penne/ziti. It has to be the best I've ever had - hands down! My daughter just had the four cheese pizza and she says it was bomb! That's like really, really good! If you want the best Italian food in Midtown, Edgewater, Design District and Wynwood area, you gotta order from this place! Love it!!! read more

It's right next door to my favorite fitness studio, so I walked in to see the menu. I ordered the vegetable pizza and it was delicious! It was made fresh, the flavor was wonderful. The owner is a really sweet woman. We had a great conversation and she made me feel welcome. I'll definitely return when I feel like comfort food after my workout. read more

If I can give 0 stars I would!!! Based on Yelp reviews, I figured I would give this place a try. Ordered a pizza and a salad. Confirmation came immediately. ETA was an hour. Over an hour and a half later I called to check on the order and they told me they were just busy and that I'd get my order in 15-20 minutes. No apologies. They blamed the online service that they received the order 10 minutes late. I told them that still makes them over an hour and half late. They have my number, they can't call? I told them my lunch hour has already been over so even if I get it now I won't be able to eat it so they may as well cancel. They told me my card was already charged so I may as well accept the order. I still didn't receive an apology and they hang up. I won't support any business who doesn't want mine! read more

I came here after a long day at school and I was DYING for some pizza. I was looking online endless for a good pizza spot and came upon this place. Like the crazy person I am for pizza, I decided to give this a try. I can officially concur that this place was the right place to choose. The restaurant is located 2 minutes from midtown and is small and cozy. I decided to to order a small pepperoni and sausage. BEST DECISION OF MY LIFE. The sausage on the pizza was authentic and not some cheap frozen sausage. You could feel the love in every slice. The chef even came out to great me personally. All in all, it was a great experience. P.S. There's free WiFi. read more

Some of the most basic things in life make it worth living, and Basani's spaghetti Bolognese is one of them... it's amazing. I literally leave the beach to come all the way to midtown for this spaghetti and head home so happy!!! If only you delivered to hibiscus island!! read more

Well, as I write this I am waiting for my food to be delivered. Mind you we ordered over an hour and a half ago. If and when we receive our food I will change my review. Super lame. I'm hungry. read more

I come from NY so the pizza isn't comparably great but it's decent compared to what I've had. The lasagna is good. The wings are just the right amount of crispy. But their hot sauce has a horrible after taste. If you must, be sure to pick up your food. I've never eaten in but I know for sure the delivery service is horrible. I was expected to wait an hour for a one topping pie and it came 1 hour and half later with no consolation what so ever. It's a cute family owned restaurant but their customer service needs a lot of work along with the quality of their food. read more

Great little Italian place near midtown. Very unassuming but excellent home cooked Italian for a very fair price. Lunch specials include salad and homemade garlic rolls. Ample parking in the rear of the building. Pizza, pasta and subs. I'll be coming back next time I'm in the area. read more

when it comes to fill-our-bellies, comfort food types, there are three choices that stand out for me. one is chinese [god knows you cannot go wrong with a good stir fry with all the fixins], one is cuban [because it sticks to your bones and you won'tbe hungry until next week], and the last is "italian", and i put this in quotes because we all know there is no authentic italian anywhere close by to me. i am used to americanized italian at this point of my life, you know, carbs carbs carbs, haha. anyway, with that in mind, i now move on to relevance ina review. basani's was my lunch date today, and moriani's is gone, but basani's is here, as mentioned aforehand. i had a pizza with my friend because i just wanted to stuff my face [and i can eat like a champ]. their pizza dough is AMAZING. it's one of the best doughs i've tried since i got here [i am a native neoyorquina]. if it would have been possible to just eat the crust...i would[i later noticed they had rolls...fricken' rolls! ZOMG] their sauce is also something to take to mind, because it is not repulsive or bland, it is just right and has all the right condiments and tastes fresh [i say this safely because i saw someone revving up the mixer with the sanguine-coloured shmear]. as far as toppings, we had pepperoni, but i wanna try their casino because i LOVE clams casino something awful. mmmm, yum. i am satisfied, that's all that matters, right? plus it was affordable [i would say cheap, but that has negative connotations here in miami. stuck ups :oP] read more

I wish I could have reviewed their food but I didn't get the opportunity. Called for deliver at 7:45 pm, told food would take an hour. 9:10 pm no food. Called to find out how much long it would take and was told my food was in the car and should be at my place shortly. 9:45 pm no food. Called to ask where my food was and they told me it was in the car and on the way. I'm usually pretty lax when it comes to bad service but this was horrible, especially because their food sounded good. They shouldn't be advertising delivery to areas that they aren't able to actually deliver to. read more

Great spot! Check in and receive 10% off! Delicious cordial staff and you gotta try the cheese bread!!

I don't know why this place has some bad reviews. Like they say you cannot please everyone. I ordered pizza from here on Uber Eats as it is a bad habit I picked up or good depends how you look at it. I have tried many pizza places in Miami and this at the current moment is definitely on my recommend list. Give this place a try! read more

Basani's a small neighborhood Italian-American restaurant ran by a Venezuelan-American family from New York. It's nothing exciting, honestly. The pasta isn't authentic, nor is the pizza. However, prices are cheap and affordable, so if you're just in a quick mood for generic pizzas and/or pastas, then this place should be fine. read more

I've been using Yelp for years and my awful experience with Basani's has made me write my first review. I had a pizza and garlic rolls and was completely disappointed. The crust. The restaurant didn't have options for crust and it turns out thin crust is all they have. For a thin crust, it was about 80% of the pizza! There was almost no sauce, cheese, or anything else. Which brings me to my next point: The toppings. When I order a pizza, I don't expect every topping in every bite, but it isn't too much to ask for at least a bit of each topping ordered in every slice. My entire large pizza had 12 slices of jalapeno and 8 small bits of chicken across 10 slices of pizza. Pathetic. The garlic rolls were a good bread but I was choking on the amount of garlic in them. For some I'm sure that's a positive but even for me, who eats garlic raw and absolutely loves the stuff, it was extremely overwhelming. I forced myself through one slice of pizza and two garlic rolls before throwing this all into the trash where it belongs. Delivery was on point but not enough to bring this joke of a "restaurant" up to 2 stars. AVOID AT ALL COSTS! read more

It ain't NY-style pizza but it's good. No slices. Either large pies or personal pies (10"). Lots of topping to choose from. Friendly service, with a smile. Lots of specials and the dining area is clean. It's near the office so we mostly do take out. read more

I have to start with one big caveat to this review - I have NOT tried the pizza here! The thing is that this is supposed to be an Italian restaurant, and I'm going to grade it as such, but there are often times when a place like this is really just a pizza joint that MIGHT have great pizza, but mediocre Italian dishes. So I'll start the actual review with a heavy heart. I live in the Midtown area and I want more food options, especially ones that offer delivery service. But when I eat a dish at a restaurant that doesn't taste as good as it would if it had been prepared by me, an untrained guy who's not Italian, I have to say something. For me, a good measuring stick for an Italian restaurant is almost always its red sauce. Just fyi, I prefer Southern Italian cuisine, which tends to be a little heavier and richer, incorporating some sugar in their red sauce. I had the lasagna from here and while it has potential as far as the noodles, cheese and meat, the red sauce was too sweet and had a bit too much oregano/Italian seasoning to it. When I first saw the Chicken Cacciatore I thought it was a mix-up with Pasta Primavera but upon further inspection I found that if you scavenged through the plain spaghetti and bell pepper slices that you would find the odd piece of chicken breast that could be considered slightly above the quality of the ready made strips of perdue in your local grocery stores frozen food section. In total, I would say there was no more than one-quarter of a chicken breast in the whole dish, but there was a lot of spaghetti, and slivers of the odd bell pepper or other veggie. The minestrone is nothing special, they use regular penne for the noodles, which at first seemed kind of rustic but on second thought smacked of cheapness. The garlic knots were the highlight of the meal, but at that point I'm grasping at straws and they still weren't that good. The price is good, but I'm not even sure you get what you pay for and I certainly wouldn't mind paying a few dollars more for an upgrade in quality. On their webpage it has a link their Miami Herald review, but it's really just a link to a Herald blog puff post that doesn't make any critical judgment of the place. It might as well have been a wedding announcement if I remember it correctly. So for the record, I won't be ordering from here again, BUT I would love to see this place succeed as I think we need as much good eats in the Wynwood/Midtown/DD area as possible. Unfortunately, I don't see that happening here without a total revamp, which is rare. Also, keep in mind that I haven't tried the pizza, which MIGHT be stellar. read more

I often have food from Basani's. This restaurant has a feel that you are eating at home clean and ready. Servings are big enough and they have incredible affordable prices for the area. Flavors are consistent. Love to order Delivery Pizza from them a way better option than popular pizza places in town. Check out their lunch specials you will thank me later. I could eat their lasagna with garlic rolls every day . Will definitely continue ordering from here. Did I mention Delivery is always on time and accurate. If you rather to eat in or pick up they have free parking in the rear area a plus many restaurants in the zone do not have this convenience. Very recommended. read more

Basani's is a nice mom & pop Italian restaurant. I've ordered from them a couple of times and they have not failed. The stuffed shells are my favorite their. The pizza is not to shabby either. Basani's is great option for Italian take out. read more

Ordered food for delivery and was very happy when it arrived. Began eating my pasta and found a hair deep inside the fettuccine. I have no idea how you can be that careless in preparing food that it's inside the dish like that. I had to throw it all away, I felt sick after seeing that. Very disappointing. read more

Basani's definitely gets it done. I've had a few things off the menu and all of them were tasty. They also offer white pizza, which I usually traveled to the Big Cheese for, but they do this well enough. More often than not, I get the french onion soup--it's not the best I've ever had, but it might possibly be the best in Downtown Miami and South Beach combined. The owners also work their cute little butts off and they deliver everywhere. read more

I did not enjoy my pizza or wings. The pizza crust was tough & sauce had no flavor. The wings came with the sauce in the side not ordered that way! I was told delivery would be 45 minutes it took over an hour. I will never order from there again. read more

Two words,Delicioso and TASTY!!! The portions are perfect!!! My boyfriend works for the Coast Guard (12 hr shifts) and I order his meals at least 2-3 times a wk to be delivered, they arrive warm and in less than 40 min. The lunch specials are a great deal!!! You will not be dissapointed!!! You have to try them! Ohhhhh soooo gooood! Mari Jacksonville, FL read more

From Nashville, TN. This place is great. The food is delicious. I highly recommend trying the chicken Alfredo! Great service as well.

This is my second time in miami, and they really don't have great food here, but BASANI'S PIZZERIA TRATTORIA is the BEST FOOD I have had so far! The service was really friendly! The chicken alferdo is so BUSSIN!!! Definitely coming back!!! :-) read more

Portion size is very small for the price. $8 for manicotti w/ ricotta that only brought 2... $4 for one-four inch cannoli? Food is good but I wish it brought more. I'm still hungry. I got delivery, took over an hour to arrive. When it did, the containers were all crushed, room temperature & leaking sauce all over the bag. Hope their service improves or this restaurant won't last long read more

We went as a family foran early dinner the day before NYE. It was really good and reminded me of NY/Philly Italian cuisine. I can't believe the value of the lunch special! If I worked in the area I woud be there every day. read more

This is my go to... I've ordered here for years and they always kill it!!! Pizza is great and they accommodate substitutions and the wings are awesome!! Ask for them shaken in hot sauce you won't be disappointed read more

I love Basani's! Food is awesome every time. Highly recommend take out or delivery if you're in the midtown area!

The level of excitement I get from ordering basanis is always the same! I absolutely love this place! i suggest the spaghetti && meatballs && the pizza! pure yummyness read more

Great prices and awesome Italian food! I took my grandma here tonight and I was happy we stopped by. The service was very friendly and we were served quickly. The garlic rolls were awesome. I had Chicken Parmesan with spaghetti in pink sauce. The chicken was moist and the pink sauce was spot on. I will be coming back! read more

After my favorite Primo Pizza left midtown, I thought I would be doomed for a life of generically, is that a word, made/delivered pizza. How wrong I was. After stumbling upon this little gem of a spot, I was pleasingly surprised. My friend ordered a small pie with pepperoni. I opted for the chicken parmesan dinner. Both arrived piping hot. The meals were really good. The pasta was al dente and my chicken was cooked well with just the right amount of parmesan cheese. I just may have found my new home for delivered pizza & pasta :) read more

I love this pizza place I been comeing hear for years this pizza is just like back home pizza newyork and that's hard to fine in Miami.....come hear for pizza trust me read more

We are new to the area and this was the 1st time ordering from Basani's. Wanted to mention their customer service. They really do care! Super quick with delivery especially since it's a Friday night. Had the monster calzone, delicious meat lasagna, and 1 of the best cannoli's we have ever had. Definitely check this place out!!!! read more

Dear Basani's- Had your pizza for the first time last night. I don't think I've had a worse pizza ever, really. Have you really 30 years experience? The quality, taste and price will collectively result in closed doors sooner than later. The product you provided cannot compete with the fine pizza options already in the area. We wanted to support our new local business but sadly to say, it was an awful pizza. Your best chance at success would be to make immediate drastic change and secure a chef who knows something about pizza. Very disappointed, read more
