Basils

All right, Basils! Good work. Basils keeps it simple– around five menu items (nachos, burritos, empanadas, tacos, and paninis) and a weekly special, but they never fail to satisfy. There’s a beauty to the simplicity of the business model (two standard prices, five standard items) and when I asked my server what she recommended, she said «I like everything. But the nachos are important.»
So I went for the nachos today. You get to see the entire process from start to finish, and the serving bowls are constantly refilled and kept overflowing. First, a pile of nachos (toasted and crunchy, my favorite) then drizzled over with a molten yellow-​orange queso. My choice of black or pinto beans (I went for black), then my choice of chicken, pulled pork, or beef (I went for pulled pork). Finally, the toppings– a bit of everything– sour cream, two types of salsa, shredded cheese, and guacamole. Should have gotten more guacamole– they’re generous with their portions and anything is fair game.
$ 7.75 for this heaping plate of nachos. Hot, fresh, and generous.
tldr: As good as it gets around here. Bravo!
