   In the mood for some simple pasta, so decided to give this a whirl again. I had the fettuccine with basil pesto. Noodles were a touch wider than others I’ve had, but thin and tasted quite fresh. Nicely done. Served with a garlic bread stick. We went on a Wednesday which featured a ravioli special. My partner loved the ravioli stuffed with sundried tomato and prosciutto. The filling was minced and the encasing noodle, delicate but firm. They declared it some of the nicest around town! Nice wines by the glass. Nice waitstaff. Music over in the populated bar side, and we sat over in the restaurant side. Not very busy, but we were a bit late for the dinner crowd. I just wish the Parmesan was freshly grated and not in a pizza shaker....

   Came in the early evening on a Sunday. Service was very good. My dining partner had one of the specials a Caesar Salad, Lasagna, a small cannoli desert, and a glass of red wine. I had a cup of tomato bisque and linguini with clams in a butter and wine sauce. The linguini meal was very good and lived up to the descriptions. My linguini dish had a very strong lemon overtone that drowned out the taste of the clams and any hint of butter in the sauce. The tomato bisque was heavily over salted. In spite of these shortcomings we'd visit this place again because of the fine service and their efforts at doing a good job.

   Our server Geoff was great, very attentive but not hovering. The food came out quick and was delicious! It was our first time at Red, White and Basil but we will be back. Really enjoyed our evening. Give Geoff 5 stars. Keep up the great work.

   Very crowded but could be expected for Valentine's Day. Service was good, my fra diablo sauce was very bland, pasta was good. Overall, an ok meal.

   Surprisingly good and affordable! There’s no shortage of Italian restaurants in our area. This is very different with their attention to vegetarian and gluten-free options for all courses. I had the gf penne with fra diavolo and italian sausage: it was perfect! Husband thought the chicken parm was bland. But, gluten free tiramisu? Unexpected and wonderful! The service here is warm, personal and friendly.

    The appetizer salad and dessert were excellent. We were disappointed with our entrées. They lacked flavor and were just kind of bland.
