Basil Gourmet Pizza & Wine Bar

Had issues multiple times with simple orders. We have ordered pineapple and cheese pizza from them and they have put pepperoni on it. Unfortunately, it was on the receipt too. When my wife went to pick it up, looked it at, and told them there was a mistake. They went back talked to the cooks and came back and said there was an issue with the cooks mis reading the receipt. We won’t be going back.

Great food and service can’t wait to return! I had the spinach and artichoke flat bread and it was so good and tangy! I have found my lunch spot!
Back again and just had the Thai pizza and BBQ and this is the best pizza I have ever had. They have that on lock. Love went into this you can tell. They were carefully crafted. Just absolutely delicious.

This is a fantastic option if you like a nice glass of wine and a yummy pizza! We also tried the grilled wings with chipotle lime sauce and they were amazing! This is a restaurant type we don’t have in B’ham and we were thrilled to find this gem!

Went there with three friends and we all agreed that this is on our list of places to go on a regular basis. Being our first time, we got a safe pizza (thin crust pepperoni) and an out there pizza (half BBQ Chicken and half Bloomin Shroomin — hand tossed). Both were great! I loved my BLOOMIN SHROOMIN half. I saw on the menu that they have several sandwiches, plenty of draft beer and bottled/​canned beer, and a few good looking happy hour specials.

These guys bring a fresh change to delivery pizza. Glad they joined the neighborhood and have been able to stick around

Fun place, great pizza and wings. Don’t read too much into the negative reviews or the one star reviews. Those individuals are making too much out of the place, in other words their expectations are way too high for a pizza and wings joint.

Very, very pleased with this place. Great pizza where a large is actually large! Nice variety of their specialities and we got fresh basil on the pizza which was very tasty. Also our salads were very good. They had plenty of drink specials. Will go back.

Sure, living 2 minutes from here doesn’t hurt. Even with that said this place is top notch! Fantastic food and their grilled wings are the best I’ve had, seriously… My favorite part about Basil is the service. Cole and Nesha have done an incredible job staffing their restaurant with great folks! Everyone is so nice and before the door even closes behind you they’re saying hello. I work in the service industry and I’m blown away by their level of service. Bottom line, I love this place!

Another fantastic two pizzas we had.
Buffalo chicken is spicy ranchy good god dang it.
The Greek was milder but just as flavorful. If you like Greek salad, this is mouth watering good.
Tried the gluten free crust. Best gluten free I’ve had yet. Fo’ sho’.

Love! Love! Love!!! Super delicious pizza, awesome atmosphere, and very friendly employees. Great place to meet for dinner and drinks. The Hawaiian overload is the best Hawaiian pizza I’ve ever had.

The pizza is just so good. It’s packed with toppings and they’ll let you split a pizza in half with different flavors. We get half bloomin-​shroomin and half buffalo chicken. Their wings are also really good. They flame broil them. It’s also very easy to find a table during prime dining hours.

This is my favorite pizza place in Birmingham. I get ½ buffalo chicken and ½ bloomin shroomin pizza. I love the buffalo and my fiancé loves the shroomin. We also get wings which are always delicious. This is odd, but I like to gague how we’ll, something is made by how much «love» they put into food. That is, how much time the chef puts into making the food. The first time I went, I Sat at the bar and watched them cook my food. They put a ton of love into it, and really took their time. This place is a little expensive, but, so so good.

Really nice! Good service and good food! We had the Margherita Pizza and caprese salad! It was our first time going and after reading other reviews. Its pretty accurate

This restaurant is a wonderful addition to the Crestline Park neighborhood. Excellent service and great food.

Went last night. It was the same night another poster complained about SEC football and the Oregon game being on instead. First of all the in state games were horrible and against pushovers. The Oregon game was great to watch. I say this because I am an in state SEC fan as well and it is unfair to give 1 star because you can’t get your way on the Tv.
The Pizza was great and the service was great as well. Try the fried motz sticks!
Hope this place sticks around.

Worse Pizza I have ever had! All 3 of us agreed that this was barely edible. We had 3 pieces left and are throwing them in the garbage. First time to eat here. Maybe we ordered the wrong thing? Ordered a 16″ ½ all vegetables with chicken and ½ all meat on hand tossed crust. Should have looked closer at the menu. Main vegetable was canned large rubbery sliced mushrooms. They don’t even offer broccoli as a vegetable option. They do not offer whole wheat crust. The all meat slices were horrible also. Inconsistent in taste and texture was such that it fell apart. Luckily we had a TodaySuperDeal, but even with that will never go back for pizza. On a positive note the restaurant is cute, not too loud, outdoor and indoor seating. The staff were very friendly and pleasant. Guess we could go back to hang out at the bar.

Never been to Basil. Started with Carolina BarB Q wings and sweet potato fries. Great taste for both.
Then ordered a large pizza ½ mushroom and onion and ½ mega veggie.
Both were fantastic and we will be back.

Great pizza. The bloomin shrumin was great. The crust is excellent. The service was very pleasant and very welcoming. Will b coming back and suggest you go there to. Wings with Carolina BBQ was awesome ill b back.

Have been here three different times and have never been disappointed. Thai pizza and Pulled Pork pizza were both outstanding. Honestly some of the best spring roll appetizers I’ve ever had too, very unique. Really great service and great atmosphere. At the top of my list when it comes to pizza in Bham.

Despite anything I write in this review, please understand I really have high hopes that this place will stick around. I think their menu, the way they present their options, and the whole package has so much potential. The service is wonderful and they were accommodating in every way. My experience at this restaurant was pleasant with one exception. This has nothing to do with the restaurant’s part but someone has to really tell the gym next door to turn that music down. It was blasting through the walls so hard, I couldn’t tell if the music implied that after my pizza, I should run next door to work off the calories.
I ordered the Bloomin’ Shroomin’ specialty pizza and it was not good. Each time I ate another slice and finished it, I couldn’t remember tasting anything which made me so mad because I really wanted to like this pizza. The marinara sauce I had at home had more flavor than this pizza, but it was so nice and pretty to look at.
I strongly encourage anyone to give this place a try. I’m all for new businesses. Maybe I’m just an unhealthy mess who needs 18 layers of grease to enjoy pizza.
Refrigerator Test: you’re going to need a lot of marinara sauce for this.
