Basso
Basso is a modern American-Italian gastropub known for its wood-fired pizzas and house-made pastas served in an intimate, stylish space with a fireplace and stone textures. While the menu centers on hearty meat dishes like crispy meatballs and ribs ragù, vegan options exist but are limited—especially since the pizza crust stopped being vegan in early 2025. The venue appeals to diners seeking a cozy date night or lively happy hour, with prices generally mid-range and a friendly yet professional staff.
