Customer Reviews & Testimonials
Top class culinary experience with best in class ambience and seating arrangements. Variety of options in continental foods, perfect mix of spices and flavours in every item we tried. Amazed with the quality of taste. Very clean and neat place and top notch hygiene. Overall, the dining experience was exceptional and would highly recommended this place to everyone.
Really awesome food. So far the best place in Manipal. Everything from appetizers, coolers, main course and desert was awesome. The staff is extremely polite . The ambience is very cutesey, perfect for both a small date or a family outing
This has become a comfort place to go to, cozy place, comfort food which is really tasty. Be it their meals or their pasta, I can have it everyday. Only thing I felt is over time, the quantity of food has reduced a bit, Im not sure, felt so. Apart from that, could never have any complaints. Buffalo sauce chicken with rice - Quantity 4/5 Taste 5/5 Peri peri sauce mushroom with rice Quantity 4/5 Taste 4/5 Lemon Iced tea 4.5/5 Amazing service 5/5 Looking forward for many more visits
Honestly the food is overhyped here. The rice is very bland, even with the side curry. The quesadilla was so bad and highly overpriced - 250 rupees. Pasta was the only good thing we had.
A unique multi cuisine restaurant in the heart of manipal just behind the edu building near point circle. Clean place to dine with your family and friends. The food is excellent and the portions are good enough. The service is also excellent. The restaurant staff are polite, smiling and helpful. Must try the continental meals either with bread or rice and chocolate biscuit pudding with vanilla ice cream.
A place that never disappoints! One of my all-time favorite spots in town, Basil Cafe is where I confidently take my friends and family, knowing they'll walk out loving it just as much as I do. The ambience? Warm, welcoming, and perfect for everything from casual catch-ups to peaceful solo meals. The service? Always top-notch - friendly staff who make you feel right at home. And the food? Ahh, the food! That's the real star of the show. If you're visiting, don't miss their Nachos Salsa Salad - a crunchy, flavorful starter that sets the mood just right. And for mains, my absolute go-to is the Butter Garlic Rice paired with Paneer Butter Masala - rich, buttery, and packed with comforting flavors. Basil Cafe continues to be one of those rare gems that delivers every single time. Highly recommend!
It is a gem for food lovers, offering an outstanding dining experience with delicious food, attentive service, and a welcoming atmosphere. From the moment you walk in, the ambiance sets the perfect tone--stylish, cozy, and inviting, making it an ideal spot for everything from a casual coffee break to a full meal with friends.

Each dish we tried was prepared to perfection, reflecting the high quality and freshness of the ingredients. The presentation is also top-notch, making the experience feel even more special. The service here is equally impressive. The staff are warm, professional, and attentive, always ready to help with recommendations and ensure that you have everything you need. It's clear that the team is dedicated to providing a memorable dining experience. The only thing to keep in mind is that the prices are a bit on the higher side. While the quality and ambiance justify the cost to some extent, it may not be the first choice for those on a budget. However, for a treat or a special occasion, Bassil Cafe offers an experience that's well worth it. Overall, Bassil Cafe is a fantastic choice in Manipal for anyone looking to enjoy amazing food, great service, and a wonderful atmosphere. Despite the slightly higher prices, it's a place that makes you feel that you're getting a premium experience from start to finish.
Went here for lunch on a drizzly, muggy afternoon and chose one of the outdoor tables. Was a nice comfortable setting, especially with their lovely selection of plants for company. The food was delicious, and the portion of each pasta/rice dish was easily good enough for two people. They have some vegan options too. Overall, a good time was had.
