Basilica Vietnamese Grill--restaurant Review



The restaurant is clean, comfortable, bright and welcoming.

    
First
and foremost a nod of the head to the server Anselm who was working the
floor alone and did a great job--never had to ask for refills of tea or
water--served, removed plates and timed everything extremely well
including giving us the check.

     
Not
being familiar with Vietnamese food I asked him for suggestions and he
came through with the appetizer, grilled beef rolls ($6), Seafood noodle
soup ($10.50) and, for dessert, fried banana on ice cream ($7) I wasn't
thrilled with the rolls but Allen liked them and I ate all of mine!


Everything
tasted good but soup, no matter how filled with shrimp, pork,
vegetables, noodles isn't substantial enough for me--good, filling but I
need a main course to bite into.
I definitely will go back again and hope Anselm is still working there but I will choose my own selections from the menu.

Total check, including tax and tip, came to $50.28

I guess I shouldn't complain next time "dinner" at a diner costs 30 bucks for 2. I'd like to try Asian food other than Chinese, although it is probably as Americanized as the Chinese cuisine is.

I love trying different country foods.
In Fort Lauderdale lunch usually runs $10-15 per person and dinner $20-25--with a coupon--I HATE fast food places so these are all sit down, be waited on restaurants

The restaurant break only lasted one day! Do you eat out every day? Once or twice a week for me-one lunch and one dinner.

I eat out--usually lunch--2-3 times a week--usually with a 'coupon'--if I could afford it I would eat out 9-10 times a week--I love eating out!!!
