    Great lunch.
    Joe C.

    This is a nice place to grab a quick lunch. You are have an EV and need to charge at the Hilton, this is the place to go for a drink in the meantime.

    Bunless Burger with Fries

    Dakota and Jeep made the experience at Basil's enjoyable. The Bunless Burger was moist and delicious. The salt was just right, and the cheese was melted properly. Fries were crispy, toasty, and savory. Drinks were well made as Jeep, the bartender, used to work at a fancy Casino. In terms of ambiance, the bar looks great and the spaces are clean, colorful, and vibrant! 100 % would recommend!

    Ask for Chris!

    Great divey place in town! Chris, the bartender, couldn't have been nicer and she poured some mean drinks. One of the best parts was the friendliness of the Giant's fans in the bar. As outsiders and Dodger fans, it's always a little tense going in wearing the opposing gear. Glad to report that everyone here was fantastic and beyond friendly. This is my kind of joint!

    My friend wanted to come here before there was a location in Lodi where we live. I have to admit,…read moreshe is less picky than I am. She ordered the fish tacos. I guess she liked that they came stacked high with all kinds of stuff. I couldn't find anything that really spoke to me. I generally want a simpler kind of dish. Not a big fan of places that dress their dishes up with things like pickled onions and mystery house sauces. So I got a burger, hoping it would be a big juicy not over cooked burger like you used to be able to get. I had to customize it a lot though. You always have to cross your finger that they will get it right when you do that. Well she liked her tacos and my burger was ok. Not worth the money. Expensive place for every day food that's just sort of dressed up with stuff you can do without. Quality was generally good. Kind of a dumpy lot to be located in, but that's Stockton for ya. I don't remember much about the service or the ambiance so they must have been ok. Probably not going back tho. I can get a better burger with less fuss for a better price just about anywhere. That said, you don't go to these types of places for a burger, you get them when you're dragged there. All in all, I wish that there were more family owned operations locally that just had good food and good prices and good service. Too many places that are either complete garbage or trying to be super high end in basically run down towns.

We had 1 server but there were 3 of them working and walking around to check on you or help you if you need anything. They had a special Super Bowl menu. We ordered: Ribs - They were decent. Came with fries, potato salad (or coleslaw). Hotdog - It was okay. I wish it were cooked more. Came with a bowl of chili (not canned), tortilla chips, and a corn muffin. From their regular menu, we ordered: The Cobb Salad - huge serving with loads of great toppings. For dessert, we tried the cherry pie. It came back warmed but it was still cold in the center. They had no problems reheating it for longer. That was nice. Pie should always have ice cream. Had to ask for that because it wasn't offered. Overall, service was decent, food was okay.

Our server was friendly and attentive the whole time. Never had to call him over for anything. We were constantly checked on and he made sure we had everything we needed.

I ordered the Margherita pizza and side salad. The pizza was yummy. Starting with the crust which is just how I like mine. Crisp edges but also bread like. Had the right amount of marinara and enough toppings to not make it soggy with a generous amount of mozzarella. It came out nice and hot and so full of flavor. I really enjoyed it. The portion was a lot for me but no complaints here because I had some leftover to bring home to enjoy the following day too. They let me bring in a cake that I made (didn't charge extra) which they kept in their fridge until we were ready for it. When they brought it out they added a sparkler on it and a group of them came to sing along with us. Overall a wonderful experience. Not only would I recommend this place but would also return.

It was also the weekend of some schools graduations, so we did expect it to be busy. We probably waited for about 20 minutes until our group was able to be seated. We ordered our drinks first and then took a good amount of time figuring out what to eat and waiting for our server to come back to take our orders. After taking our orders, we waited for a while to receive our food, again, we were expecting that because it's busy and we're a big group. I ordered their wagyu burger + fries plate. Everyone started to get their food and then some of us realized my food was the only one that never arrived so we had to let our server and another server (not assigned to our table) about my food, which was then brought out minutes later. It was pretty hectic in the restaurant to be honest, i asked for a side of ranch like twice and never got it. It was kinda hard to flag down our server so when they gave me my food, i ordered my pizookie dessert as well so by the time i finish my meal, the pizookies ready. Food overall was good. I also used to work in a restaurant so honestly I understand how busy it can be and our minds are scrambled. So i definitely appreciate my server and his patience with my crazy (love them) family and all their questions and comments lolol

Moving forward I ordered chicken wings how do you mess those up ??? by BURNING them !!!! let the pictures speck for themselves ... how unprofessional to even serve them! I want to express to be aware when your asking for your concern/complaint in what you've ordering to be corrected I am finding more and more places up-charging you ! For little thing The proper thing to have done was to comp the meal. When I owned my restaurant, it was all about customer service. The goal is to have them come back to enjoy a good meal !! I took pride in what I served. I'm not finding that anymore. Even the smaller restaurants gouging you for extra sauce serving you canned sodas, so they don't have to give you refills from a fountain machine easier to charge you for another can of soda. I try to pick the restaurants I go to wisely but most of all to share my taste buds and adventures with you discovering new restaurants and new taste of cuisines is enjoyable, but I'm finding it more and more uncomfortable and frustrating. We don't get what we pay for now these days that's one thing about Yelp. I love this platform. I went in to have a wonderful lunch with my husband and ended up sitting there watching my husband have lunch while I was frustrated and disappointed Sadly enough, I will not be going back there. I feel that the atmosphere has changed. The food is not seasoned to perfection as their menu state it is and the facility isn't as clean as it used to be also frequent management changes are a concern and a big red flag .

One was carrying drinks and one just walked by neither one of them greeted us or even looked at us! It was almost 10 minutes before we were acknowledged. The waitress brought us menus and we asked for waters. When we ordered we were specific with our drink order (they were their special drink from the advertising on the table. We were so specific that we literally showed her the advertisement and said we will take 2 of these) and when a gentleman brought our drinks out they were wrong! It took about 20 minutes to get our food (it was 3 appetizers) and you could tell they were literally just warmed up. The apps were good but definitely shouldn't have taken that long for them to come out when the restaurant was basically empty. We immediately asked for boxes and the waitress insisted she bring them out when we were ready to go. We insisted we wanted them immediately. She appeared confused and brought them out. We ate a few bites and drank our drinks we paid and left. We will definitely NOT be back! The food was good but when the service is mediocre or horrible the food is the only thing to save it and that was not worth saving! Save your money and go elsewhere!

    Cozy Neighborhood Gem with Killer Bar Bites and Non-Stop Good Vibes!…read more I absolutely love this little spot! Idunno on Yosemite Street is one of those hidden-gem bars and restaurants that feels like your favorite local hangout right from the first visit. It's small, welcoming, and always delivers on great food, cold drinks, and plenty of laughs. The menu is packed with exactly what you want when you're craving classic bar food done right. The jalapeño poppers are crispy and gooey with just the right kick, the mozzarella sticks come out golden and stretchy with marinara for dipping, and the fried zucchini is perfectly seasoned and addictive. Their quesadillas and Mexican-style tacos (including asada options) hit the spot every time, and the chicken wings and chicken strips with French fries are crispy, juicy, and pair perfectly with any beer or cocktail. They also have Mexican-style tacos, soup of the day, and a whole lot more rotating specials that keep things exciting--every day feels like there's something new and delicious to try. What really sets Idunno apart is the atmosphere. This place is perfect for a casual night out with friends. They've got comedy nights and karaoke that always bring the energy, and even on quieter evenings it's easy to grab a seat at the bar or a table and just have a few good laughs. The staff is friendly and the vibe is laid-back and fun--exactly what you want in a neighborhood bar and restaurant. Whether you're stopping in for a quick bite and a drink, catching a comedy show, or belting out your favorite songs on karaoke night, idunno delivers every single time. Affordable prices, generous portions, and that "everyone knows your name" kind of feel make it a regular stop for me now. If you're in the area, do yourself a favor and check it out. You won't be disappointed--great food, great drinks, and even better times with friends. Highly recommend! I'll definitely be back soon.

But this was so bad. 90% of the menu is freezer food. The nachos had a puddle of what tasted like velveeta on the bottom and a pile of cold shredded cheese on top. The sauce on the previously frozen ravioli tasted like canned meat sauce. Not a grain of salt or speck of flour added. I know this isnt the only restaurant using frozen or premade items, but this stuff is straight from the container into old grease (you can smell it) and on to your plate. Nothing about this place says gastropub. It was really really bad.
