Review summary
AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Basta Italian Restaurant in Cranston, RI, is celebrated for its "phenomenal" food and "impeccable" service. Guests rave about the "exceptional" ambiance, though it can get lively. Signature dishes like the pistachio-crusted cod and butter cake are must-tries. With "warm" and "attentive" staff, it's a "gem" worth visiting repeatedly.
