    Service was excellent. Unfortunately for me food was way too salty(Triple Delight) . Won ton soup was not tasty. The won tons were not identifiable and were mushy pieces floating in the broth. Extra broccoli cost $2.00 for a few small pieces of broccoli florets. Egg roll was not crisp and soup was lukewarm. Disappointing meal.

    Despite making a 5:30 reservation for an early dinner, the place was slammed for events at the Palace Theatre and the Civic Center so we had a short wait for our tableThe food is excellent, reasoably priced and we had a great server (Colt?) who was very busy with his other tables, turned our order around quickly and continued to check on us numerous times during the meal. I would highly recommend this Chinese/Japanese restaurant to anyone dining in downtown Canton. My only suggestion would be the two times we have been here, the hostess is less than friendly. I don't know why she seems to have any angry disposition, but it doesn't make a good first impression for a restaurant that has everything else working right in their operations.

    The room was very dark & hard to read the menu. My husband had ordered a beer halfway through dinner & never received it. Pad Tai was flavorless with no spice. The sushi was delicious though! Just an OK experience.

    Front of the house greeting was poor; acted like they didn’t care we were there and seemed confused about where to seat us even though we had a reservation for 3 and arrived on time; no warmth or friendliness at all. Emily our server was fast, engaging and efficient, very good service! Delicious food and well paced with drinks appetizers entrees and dessert. Very noisy atmosphere. We have been here several times before but it had been a while since our last visit. Overall a good experience and we will return again.

    Ate at Basil for the first time. WOW!! It was fantastic! Egg roll & pot stickers to start were good. My husband had the Korean Sizzling Steak. He said it was better than he had in Korea. I’m not a big fried steak eater and I thought it was very tasty. I had the Crispy Pineapple Chicken. It was delicious. I would recommend going light on the red pepper, there were just too many. A lot of food so I had leftovers. I also tried the Pumpkin Martini. Definitely a good choice. Our server, OSCAR, was very attentive & professional. All in all it was a FABULOUS meal (no room for dessert). Looking forward to going back soon!!

    initially was disappointed, we were 5+ minutes late due local streets blocked & could not get into their parking lot. we were finally seated 20+ minutes later. took our order after more waiting. food was more waiting. waiter was great, food was great. I feel their problem might have been that they were allowing walk-ins to be seated at bar area. Also believe Canton was having "restaurant week" offering freebees, driving up walk-ins. we did have Palace theatre tickets for 7:30, & did get to our seats at 7:15. all ended well but was nerve wracking at first. Would go again, but would allow more extra time.
