    My cousin commented that this casual restaurant was well known around town and attested to their great Yelp reviews. The space is large. Plenty of tables and chairs; a big front counter/ordering area (I'm assuming during peak hours they can get pretty busy). When I visited, the brick strip plaza this is part of was obviously new(ish), so the inside looked clean; nice outdoor patio, too. I got a Garden Of Eating panini, added turkey, asked for it on a croissant instead of the default ciabatta. It was spectacular. The turkey and Brie cheese paired perfectly with the avocado, alfalfa sprouts and tomato. Their homemade basil pesto mayo was to die for. My trip to this place was back in the summer of 2021, so I'd like to think they still make their own bread fresh in-house, because the croissant was so soft and gently crisped from the panini press; incredible. The dessert selection here is stocked and ready to rumble. Big pieces of cheesecakes, creme brûlée, fruit tarts, and massive, I mean ginormous, eclairs (something like 7-8 inches long and 2 inches wide); also have gelato. I got a piece of their Tiramisu and it was fabulous! Perfect espresso to Italian cream ratio. The soaked ladyfingers were soft, but not complete mush. Dare I say... Dreamy!

    Grilled cheese and fries
    Ralph H.

    My wife wanted a grilled cheese and fries so I called and ordered 2 grilled cheese and fries to go pick up. They say 27 dollars and some change for that. I get there and look on their menu and if you get the same thing on the kids menu it is only five dollars for a grilled cheese and side. When I get home and open them, they give you a kids portion for the grilled cheese and fries charging you 15 dollars more for the same amount. I will not be getting ripped off like this again. Totally dissatisfied with how they rip you off.

    Order Togo: -Chicken Pesto panini + potato salad $12.00 Sandwich was yummy. Potato salad wasn't our favorite. Tasted like deli potato salad but my wife and I have had better. -Turkey cranberry sandwich + Mac & Cheese $12.00 Sand which was decent good not great like the Chicken Pesto Panini sandwich. The Mac & cheese was better than the potato salad. -Small Amerena gelato ice cream. $4.50 Wife really enjoyed the Gelato ice cream. -With tax + 20% Tip (5.70) -Total = $37.71 Service was fantastic, Bella M. Was fantastic at the register. We ordered Togo, and she was super welcoming, and super friendly and awesome. Looked through the glass cases and saw all the desserts and pasta sides. Restaurant was very clean from the looks of it. They have Italian scooters and an Italian small vehicle truck inside for decorations and etc. very cool place. Booths, tables, stools with high top. They have out door seating on the patio on the side. Very cool set up, very nice music playing, kinda like diner soft rock music. I'd definitely come back here.

    Limoncello Cake
    Reagan T.

    While we have been here for the full Italian meal experience, this time we just went for dessert and coffee. They have a huge selection of cakes, cheesecakes, profiterole, and gelato! We have tried several of their extensive offering and haven't been disappointed. The limoncello cake is a light option, if you aren't looking for too much sweet. The chocolate mouse tuxedo cheesecake is ultimate decadence. The profiterole were excellent. However, the coffee left a bit to be desired. Our expresso cappuccinos were lack luster...very expensive, not much beverage, lukewarm, and took 30 minutes to be served. We'd definitely come here for dessert again, but skip the coffee until they can make improvements there!

    Turkey Cranberry Panini
    Sue W.

    You are greeted with a clean, bright open space so it is inviting. We had reservations for a small party. The staff worked fairly well delivering food and clearing plates. The food was nothing to get excited about. The Greek salad with chicken had fresh greens, tomatoes, feta and kalamata olives with sliced chicken on top. It tasted ok but it just wasn't anything special. The Turkey Cranberry panini was very bland. There was a smear of some type of cranberry but it was barely detectable. Out bill was $28 which is pretty pricey for a salad and sandwich. Oh, and they charge a credit card fee which they don't mention.

    The food is great! Love their pizza and cavatelli pasta. Clean and nice atmosphere, good service.

    Birthday Party Fun.

    Alexandria Menzies had her birthday party at Basilico and it was great. The place had nice sit down tables, and the hot meals were great. After the meal we had amazing ice cream and cake. The service was fast and friendly, and so it is my new favorite Fredericksburg place.

    Chicken salad with mac
    Kathleen D.

    My car needed an oil change, so I took it to the Mr. Tire next door to Basilico. It made logical sense to walk over to check out the newish Italian fast-casual eatery/market during my wait. I walked in and the place was huge/bustling. Other folks were standing around looking at menus, so I walked up and grabbed one myself. I landed on the chicken salad sandwich on a croissant with a side of mac and cheese fairly easily, so I placed my order, took a number, and grabbed a seat at a two-top. It didn't take long at all for my food to arrive (on par with somewhere like Panera, to give you an idea). I was surprised when an associate stopped by to check on me a bit later also -- typically when I dine solo no one bothers to speak to me, so that was a super nice surprise. Prices were reasonable. Menu was expansive. You could definitely "create your own adventure" here. It's not crazy original food by any means, but it's good quality and nicely filling. I'd return if I'm in the area again.

    Pizza needs work. No flavor, chewy crust. The house ceasar dressing is pretty good though. Probably won't order again.

Their menu was quite large, with hot dogs, cold subs, hot sandwiches, and paninis listed. They also feature a couple soups daily. When we went, they had a loaded baked potato soup and a lobster bisque. The young girl working the front was very happy and helpful and gave some good suggestions too. The place is quaint, with several tables and lots of historic signs on the walls. We started with their baked potato soup - The overall flavor was nice. But the potatoes in it were rubbery, like they used the wrong type of potato or maybe over-cooked it. Also, the soup was just warm, far from being served hot. Next up were the sandwiches - I chose the BBQ chicken sandwich, which had thinly sliced chicken breast on it, along with BBQ sauce, mayo, and onions. The sandwich was pressed, like a panini and was pretty good. I liked the smokiness of the BBQ sauce. I also got a bottle of their homemade root beer and it was pretty good. They serve Route 11 potato chips, which are my favs! So, I had to pick up a bag of Mama Zuma for later - those things are spicey, hot, and tasty! Overall, it's a nice spot, I can see them being a popular lunch spot downtown.

We got 3 sandwiches, 2 with fries and 1 with onion rings, 2 waters and a sprite. It was $52. I think that is a bit high especially looking at size of sandwich but the were delicious.

The food is always spot-on. I have had several opportunities to go in on weekdays as well. The general vibe is slower, though the food comes out fast. Always several clusters of retirees and several pairs of business folks talking in hushed tones. On these days, even if you haven't been in in months they make you feel like a regular. This is Yelp, so I need to recommend a few things to order. Their chef salad is HUGE. The club sandwich is a great offering. And the one you'll skip over but shouldn't is the Adkins Special, which is 3 eggs and 2 meats (or 2x one meat) -- no bread, no fruit, no potatoes. Sometimes you just need to go all proteins! Anyway, all of these are great options. Also, their "numbered" deli sandwiches are all good choices. We remain regulars. Although I have only checked in about 40 times we are there at least twice a month. If you see me come say hi!
