During the Memorial Day weekend, while staying at Levis Commons, I decided to walk to a nearby restaurant for dinner and ended up discovering Basil Pizza and Wine on May 25. It was a charming Italian spot with a cozy dining room and a welcoming patio. The menu looked great, so even though it was already late and only about a half hour before closing, I chose to dine there. I was a little worried I might feel rushed because of the time, but that did not happen. I was greeted warmly by the hostess and the manager as soon as I walked in, which immediately made me feel welcome. Since it was a bit cool outside, I chose to sit in the dining room. I was seated in Sydney's section, which turned out to be perfect because she was an excellent server. Even though she had already started the closing tasks in the dining room, she still provided outstanding service. She was attentive, polite, professional and efficient. She took my order right away and kept the soda refills coming without me ever having to ask. Sydney's service really made the difference and it complemented my delicious meal. In an era where many restaurants feel inattentive or simply not invested in the guest experience, Basil Pizza and Wine delivered a memorable evening. It ended up being an unexpectedly great dinner and it will be my go to restaurant the next time I am staying in Perrysburg. Sydney and the restaurant were fantastic. read more

I came here with 2 of my friends on a Saturday night at 6pm. We were sat right away. Our waiter was at our table within a minute of sitting down and had our drinks within minutes. My friends got alcohol and they seemed to love their cocktails. We ordered bruschetta and our waiter warned us that it's not your typical bruschetta. We tried it anyways. My friends absolutely loved it. I hated it lol. It's EXTREMELY sweet. It's got a lemon marscapone cheese. The bread is very soft and fluffy and tastes great, but they pile that sweet cheese thick on top of it and it's just not my cup of tea. My friends ordered pizza and they loved what they ordered. I ordered the Caesar salad and added chicken. The Caesar dressing is chefs kiss. I absolutely loved it and wish I could've taken a bottle of it home with me. The chicken was cooked well, but definitely needs more seasoning. It took a bit to get our checks, but overall it was a great experience. read more

Basil Pizza & Wine Bar - Bruschetta - Pizza Near Me - Perrysburg, Ohio

I have been here twice now. The first time was such a good time for my friend's birthday I couldn't wait to come again! I love restaurants that serve brunch, and this place goes above and beyond. This time it was not disappointing. The food was delicious and the server was fantastic. Super friendly and super knowledgeable. The food came out to order and was easy to make accommodations for. It's really nice that this place is also family friendly and has vegan/vegetarian options. The restaurant itself is clean and it's nice to be able to look out the windows and the people making the pizzas. It's a good lay out and a good amount of seating without being too big or too small. Theres also an entrance/exit from the front and an entrance/exit to the patio and back parking lot. read more

Arrived early for our reservation and they were able to seat us right away. Service was prompt and super friendly. A little forgetful, but Sydney's personality made up for it. Appetizers came out quickly and were delicious. Meals were also fast. Pizzas were good. Pasta was good. Chicken piccata was good. The filet mignon was very overcooked. Ordered medium rare and it came out well done. Still had good flavor. Did not complain or send it back - I hate doing that. Overall, it was a nice dinner. read more

Basil Pizza & Wine Bar - The Burg Pizza - Regular - Pizza Near Me - Perrysburg, Ohio

This place was a joke. Hostess was not friendly upon arrival. Waitress brought water promptly but took forever for bruschetta to arrive. We left without ordering any other food. VERY disappointed and will mark this off our list. read more

Had a nice night with my wife at this restaurant, service was good, we loved the drinks and the appetizers and the soup and salad. But our final entrée left a lot to be desired. The mushroom pizza just seemed to be lacking too much, it was not good. The crust was perfect but the rest was gross. Not sure if they forgot to add something but no seasonings, no cheese, mushrooms were close to raw and plain. We'd try it again but would definitely order a different pizza. read more

They have some amazing themed nights and great events at this spot. I've been here a few times, but this time I heard they have a new GM which totally makes sense with the vibe and all the fun happenings. I will say every time before this time, I was always impressed with the service and food. This time they had a Harry Potter themed cocktail list. We all know I love a good cocktail menu, and Harry Potter themed? How could we go wrong? I ordered the Harry Potter flight and was wowed by all the different flavors. One had frangelico in it and I was really wowed by the flavor. All of them were delicious! We ordered the feta dip, baked Brie and the meatballs to all share. They were all absolutely delicious! It's a wine bar and known for their cheese, but I have to say the meatballs were dynamite. Isaiah was our water and he was quick and very nice. I'm excited for the new GM as he gets more people coming back and excited about their new themes and events. read more

The Shrimp Al Limone was very tasteless. The pasta was gummy & stuck together. The shrimp needed seasoning. Very noisy & tables so close together. Was hard to navigate. The server, James R, was friendly, attentive & courteous. read more

The pizza is SO small I was very disappointed and I wasn't expecting it after paying $20. I suggest not going here because of the small portions for so much money. I'd like a refund read more

My bad. I consider Mike P our Toledo pizza expert. I usually read his review before checking out pizza spots. Last minute type deal after the comedy show. I did make a reservation. We arrived early due to the show letting out earlier than expected. The hostess checked us in and invited us to check out the bar. Bar has like 6 seats so not much to check out but in direct sight of the hostess when our table is ready. Decent wine list $9-15 per glass and a few craft beers. So now the wait begins. Its about 10 minutes past our reservations. I go back to the hostess n she look like she never saw me before. Said something about maybe they gave the table to a similar name. I told her if there's another Summer in here I want to meet her lol. No apology or anything. She just looked confused? Server was nice n knowledgeable. Unfortunately the best thing I had was the charcuterie. Nice selection of cheeses but a little pricy at almost $20 for a small plate. We got the primo pizza. Pepperoni sausage n mushrooms. Floppy falling apart pizza. Need a fork n knife to eat it. Toppings n sauce completely forgettable. Warmed some up when I got home to cook a little more n still forgettable. Servers box up your food. I personally prefer to do it myself for sanitary reasons but he had already grabbed the pizza n started. Is that what makes this upscale pizza? Now the disappointment with the credit card fee to use a card. If this was mentioned on their website or on the door I would have brought cash. Good server but I tip based on cost of my items, not additional fees added. My man refuses to eat the leftovers so off to the trash. Toledo has so many good pizza places here. Nothing special to see here. read more

Basil has become our go to date spot. The food is very good and interesting. The environment feels slightly upscale hipster. The service is always good. And it's a nice location. The pizza is very good. It's a more traditional Neopolitan crust than almost anywhere in Toledo. The toppings are a fun mix between traditional Italian and experimental. The Salsiccia pizza has housemade sausage, pomodoro, roasted red peppers, fennel, and mozzarella and is great if you love the traditional flavors. I also like the less traditional Tropic Thunder with maple sriracha bbq sauce, pineapple, chicken, cilantro, white cheddar, and mozzarella-provolone. Don't sleep on the pasta. The Tagliatelle Bolognese is one I have ordered many times. They have a constant rotation of new specials and have a good selection of wine and cocktails. I like their fall special cocktails in particular, heavy on good whiskey and maple and apple flavors. If you care about vegan food, there are many good options. It is not cheap at $35-ish per person (before alcohol) , but it feels worth it. The environment is very nice. It has a clean, modern look, helping it feel upscale. However, I've brought my kids here as young as four and they felt comfortable. The outdoor patio is very nice in good weather. The servers are always friendly and patient with my children. It is convenient to the movies (universal traditional date activity) and two bookstores (our traditional date activity). As a New Yorker, I'm snobby and insufferable about pizza. Basil is not New York pizza. It is closer to Italian pizza and it's also doing its own thing very well. The whole package is great read more

Love coming here for the beef carpaccio! It so delicious, a perfect portion and price for two people. There's a lot of great options on the menu - pizzas, pastas, appetizers, salads, etc. Nice wine selection. The ambiance at the bar area is great but the dining lacks. Lights are too bright and the sound echos and can get really loud, making it a bit difficult to talk with table guests. I recommend making a reservation to ensure you don't have a wait. And there's outside seating for the warmer months. read more

Food was mediocre. Four cheese torta pasta. Service friendly but not on point checking on our table.

The servers at Basil are wonderful, however the quality of non-pizza food items leaves something to be desired. Yesterday I ordered a Caesar salad and the ravioli. The salad was prepared with old lettuce that had already browned around the edges. I should have sent it back. The ravioli came out cold and I did send that back. This is not the first time in the last several visits that I have been disappointed in the quality of food coming out of the kitchen. I genuinely like the atmosphere of the place and I have never been disappointed in my servers. However, the kitchen staff needs work. read more

When you want a pizza with a little upscale. Delicious drinks are on the menu. Great appetizers for sharing. Great pizza combos, although I wish they were baked longer for a crispy crust. Nice table service and a good vibe. Worth a try. read more

Restaurant was only 1\4 full when we arrived but we were seated next to a huge loud party. Lots of staff walking around but no one even brought us a water. After 15 minutes or so of being ignored we abandoned. We went to ROSARIA'S ON 3RD instead. Impeccable service and fantastic food. read more

We've been coming here since 2017 and the pizza quality has not dropped since. If not as much of a secret spot like it used to be, but this is our go to date night spot. read more

Loved the crust! The pizza is quite good. Also had the Calamari & a 4-cheese ravioli that was excellent. The place is very loud, but as it was very busy I suppose that is to be expected. read more

We come here every year when we visit friends. I have to say this time was good and bad. Our food was good , but my husband ordered the Santa Fe soup and the waitress brought potato leak saying " she didn't know they where out of Santa Fe" we go the honey whipped feta for an appetizer which came with lots of whipped feta ( yummy) but only four small pieces of bread. We asked for more break and where told it would be a. Additional $4.50 ( okay that's fine because we had all that whipped feta). However, my husband ordered the meatballs and when they arrived, guess what? They had five pieces of the same bread!! Why the waitress didn't tell us " you can have more bread for $4.50 or wait for your meatballs which come with the same bread" ?! I got the strawberry field salad and that was very good. For dessert we ordered the flourless chocolate cake.... It took almost 20 min to bring it out. We ordered it to go because there was a storm rolling and we wanted to get back to the hotel before it dumped rain. We almost left without the cake bet it shouldn't have taken that long! Overall the food is good , pricey but good. read more

I choose this place with high score by yelp for dinner. House was pretty full but they had high table for me alone. In addition of my beer I ordered a Fried calamari for appetizer and Margarita. Just different foods from what I usually eat. The Calamari came but on marinara sauce and mayo on the Calamari. I want sauce on the side and no mayo on the top. I want control how much sauce depends on taste of sauce. Mayo killed all flavors of food. The Margarita looked good but this dow taste so plain without wheat and yeast flavor. Tomato sauce probably house made but too sour. Thus, looking great pizza but taste not. Such a great place and services but sorry just half the star because of the foods. read more

We love Basil! We love their pizza and their wine!!!! It's our favorite Friday night date we often sit at the bar. I love their meatballs and pasta too! Also if you haven't tried it their brunch is AMAZING! Biscuit and Gravy Pizza!!! Also for my vegan friends they have a great menu that caters to all! The servers are always really good and well trained. It's a great spot! read more

I was surprised!!!! Very surprised !! This restaurant is excellent. We made reservations, got there a little early and was seated right away. Great wine list , they also have beer and a few liquor speciality drinks. I ordered a Pepperoni Pizza and my wife ordered a 4 Cheese Tortellini. We split the order....wow the Tortellini was great. I over ate and usually I do not do that. The Tortellini was so good. I also ordered a glass of Cataclysm . The attendant was great in making sure we were happy with the food and comfortable. She was quick and attentive in this busy time. I would recommend this restaurant. read more

I've been coming here for years and have always loved it. Visit after visit was consistently good. My husband and I had a reservation for Saturday at 6:30. I requested a half booth seat in the back. The hostess sat us at the worst table in the restaurant. I reminded her I requested a seat in the back and she replied "so did a lot of people". There were two empty seats where I requested. I shook it off thinking they were going to use it for a large party. So we sat at the worst table. Five minutes later they sat two women there. Then we ordered the whipped feta appetizer. They brought 4 minuscule pieces of bread. I asked for more bread. They never mentioned an upcharge. We also ordered Margherita pizza. It arrived undercooked. When the bill arrived there was a $4.50 upcharge for a few pieces of tiny bread. One insult after another. We will not be back. read more

Yum! We stopped in on the way from Michigan back to central Ohio. It was a long stop for a trip but so worth it. The mimosa flight was so good. I really loved the Cherry mimosa. They don't have a kids' menu specifically, but they were more than happy to adjust an adult portion for us! And the chicken and waffles was delicious! read more

Nice quick walk from the hotel for a late quick dinner. They had some good rotating craft beer choices and some different takes on their pizza. The staff was amazing. Give it a shot for a low key dinner. I will be back if I stay at the nearby hotels again. read more

I LOVE this restaurant. It has an amazing wine selection, great appetizers (the whipped feta dip is to die for and the charcuterie board is fantastic), fantastic salads (the strawberry salad. . OMG) and wonderful pizzas! (KEVIN BACON!) They also happen to have the best patio in the area. It is well shaded and covered from the sun but has a fantastic breeze that hits just right. The patio is well decorated and looks lovely. That being said, I am not really a fan of their brunch. I got crab benedict and for as much as I paid for it, I got practically hard boiled eggs instead of poached. It was awful. I had to send back the eggs and the rest of the food was cold by the time I got the eggs back. read more

Local favorite. Delicious pizza and ravioli are suggested. Excellent service. Great for families. Warm atmosphere.

After a long day we didn't really want to go out for dinner so I placed an online pick up order. Super easy placing it, took about 20 minutes. Located right in Levis Commons, just outside our hotel. I ordered the bruschetta, perfectly toasted garlic bread with a side dish of pickled heirloom tomatoes, balsamic vinegar ( nothing was soggy) side Caesar salad, with pumpernickel croutons, shaved Asiago. Everything was delicious. My mom got the spaghetti and meatballs, she said it was very good. read more

My friend and I ate here twice during our stay for the Solheim Cup! Both times the meals were superb! First night we both had the scallops and sweet corn risotto! Words cannot describe this dish. The scallops were seared to perfection and the risotto was cooked great! Our server Steven was very friendly and answered our questions with professionalism. Mike the manager/sommelier was gracious and spent a few minutes talking with us. Second time we each had a salad and a pizza. My wedge salad was awesome! Friend had the Field of Greens, very good also. Pizza was Ace of Spades. Nice thin crust and cooked perfectly. I doubt I'll ever be back since I live in California but I highly recommend Basil Pizza and Wine! read more

Great atmosphere and service! All is top notch. You can't beet Thierry wine bottle specials. Now I've only ever eaten the pizza and have never had a bad pie from here. I l honestly couldn't tell you how any of the other offerings are. They are always busy and packed wall to wall. I've never had bad service here and what you get is worth the price. read more

Love the atmosphere but the food and service are unfortunately not as good as it used to be. Started both bruschetta which had whipped goat cheese and strawberries.... NO TOMATOES.....$25 Chicken Picatta was the size of a chicken filet and was burned and dried out. Minimal veggies on the plate as well. Friend had $22 shrimp and Pasta dish and it lacked flavor and pasta was clumpy and lacked sauce. Our waiter finally showed up after 35 min, which was 10 minutes after asking the hostess if we could be waited on. Bye-bye Basil... way too many other choices. Hope read more

Basic girl brunch? Yes, that is me. I am her. Basil is wonderful for bougie brunch, but you need a reservation. It's always packed and waiting for a table isn't fun, so yeah, give them a call. As far as cocktails go, I'm always a yes for cocktails. Their mimosa is lovely, but they always have seasonally special drinks on menu, so I highly recommend ordering from there. I had a strawberry mule that made my whole week. My friend ordered the huevos rancheros pizza, and it was huge, for sure a two person meal, with perfectly runny egg and crispy prosciutto. If I had to make any change to this dish, it'd be nixing the red sauce and instead doing something refried bean or enchilada sauce based. The tomato sauce was good but not quite fitting. The crab Benedict was delicious. Two crab cakes with perfectly poached eggs and the most amazing salt bacon and potatoes. It was artistry, and I love me a good presentation. I could eat this all day. read more

My husband and I sat down for dinner at Basil before heading to a comedy show and had a great experience. First, this is nowhere near fine dining. I saw some reviews saying it was, so I felt the need to clarify. This is an upscale brick oven pizza joint. We orders the Waygu meatballs for a appetizer and they came out fast, hot, and tasty. They were served in a red sauce with slices of a baguette brushed with oil and seasonings on the side. The pizzas here are thin and have crispy crust. We ordered two pizzas to share, one Tropic Thunder and one Truffle Shuffle. The server grated fresh Parmesan over them at the table and we enjoyed them both. Our only gripes were that we felt the toppings could have been distributed better across the whole pizza so every slice had a little bit of everything, and the pineapple chucks could have been diced a little smaller since the crust was so thin. It didn't stop us from enjoying it, though, and we had more than enough to share with a few slices leftovers. I also ordered a glass of wine and thought they had a decent variety of wine options at various price points. The service felt quick for how busy it was, and the waitstaff worked together well to assure our needs were met (e.g. running food, clearing appetizer plates and unused one glasses, refilling water, proactively bringing a carry out box, etc.) Our bill was about $55 before tip. Of the dining options in the area, we felt this one provided good value for the price and quality of the food. read more

Kaleb was our server and he was excellent. We had some pizza with a gluten free crust. It was amazing!!! Typically you find gluten free or cauliflower crust brought in and frozen. This was HOMEMADE. We ordered the pepperoni but added sausage. I don't think anything here is "processed". My son goes to BGSU and this will definitely be on our go to list. Also love their humor!
