It was 2 oclock in the afternoon and I had been up since midnight. I drove 400 miles and just walked around massive antique sale. Family was feeling Italian, I was feeling my patience drain. The food at Basil and Garlic was personally responsible for the fate of all of Scottsdale. If I dont fill my gullet with good food, I was going to lose my s@#t. This establishment laughed in the face of danger and packed our table with wonderful Italian food with amazing flavor. We covered all our bases by order a few different pasta dishes and a sandwich. I wont go into the idle details of who had what, cause I ate them all. I normally bat clean up for our team, but this time they all tapped out early cause of the big portions, I had an (happy) cavalcade of Italian delights. I would like to say the sauces were to die for, but it was more than that. The sauces were to kill for. Yep, you heard it here first. I choke someone for a plate of their sauce. So good, will be back. Thank you.

Hands down the best place Ive been to for pizza in the valley. We started with fried mushrooms, then the Sicilian with pepperoni and meatballs, and finished with the Nutella Pizza. Very flavorful mushrooms, the perfect crust on the pizza with delicious toppings, and the Nutella pizza crust was a flaky pastry dough that paired perfectly with the strawberries and whipped cream. The quality of the food and service are immeasurable! Definitely coming back to try the rest of the menu!!

Wanted something with chicken and cheese . They didnt have exact dish but said they can make something. Once on the table, it didnt have either of them and was all veggie. But was very tasty. Little miscommunicstion on what I wanted and what they understood, but food is good. Could see the potential. Nice place overall close to my office, hidden all these years.

The definition of a local place to eat. We live just minutes away and frequent quite often. The staff all know who we are and its a very laid back atmosphere. The food is awesome and the portions generous. The BYOB works out great, just know there is a corkage fee. The fee I dont like though? Split plates. Feels antiquated.

Best local Italian restaurant and its in my neighborhood! Delicious food, reasonable prices and the majority of it is scratch made including all their bread, sub rolls and pizza crust. Their Sicilian pizza is the best Ive had, hands down!! Highly recommended. You can even bring your own wine for a small corkage fee.

This restaurant is amazing. It has great, fresh Italian food at a pretty low price. Its run by a family who remembers you every time you come, and what you ordered last, even if its been a month. The staff is very friendly and the overall aroma is very nice. Highly recommended.

Great little restaurant tucked away in Scottsdale. The food is delicious and respects Italian tradition with a modern twist to a few classics. It is a BYO so bring your wine and enjoy the feel of a small restaurant that has kept it simple and delicious!

Wonderful authentic Italian food and great variety of dishes. You feel as if youre at a home kitchen at a Tuscan familys house. Not fancy inside and its BYOB. Fills up fast, small place, and gets quite noisy, but the food is more than worth it.

This is a nice small place. Homemade food, the pizza was great. The crust was thin and crunchy with great flavor. The hot wings had great flavor and texture. Not too hot but flavorful and crunchy. Would go back for a quick lunch.

Excellent pizza. The crust is just right. Very creative with toppings, not overdone, just right. The pasta is also perfectly cooked and the sauces are great. I have had the Oil and garlic, marinara, clams and muscles.
