Summary Review: 4 stars (out of 5)

 

Detailed Review:

Crust: The crust at Basilico Greenville is a thin, blackened crust similar to what you would find on a wood-fired pizza.  The texture is a little on the hard side, but it is really more crispy than hard.  This is not my favorite style of crust, but I like it for what it is.  Score: 8/10

Sauce: This pizza is somewhat undersauced, but the sauce that does appear has a rich tomatoey taste.  I only got a few really good bites of sauce, and I wish I had tasted the sauce more often.  Score: 6/10

Cheese: The cheese appears in sufficient quantity, and it offers a nice mix of cheesy flavors.  Score: 10/10

Toppings: The sausage is a mild Italian sausage that has surprisingly little flavor.  The ham has a nice fresh ham flavor, not smoked like a lot of ham pizzas.  The bacon has a yummy salted pork flavor, but there was not much bacon on my pizza.  The pepperoni and beef are unremarkable.  Most toppings appear in above average quantity.  Score: 8/10

Overall Taste: The overall taste is a little on the bland side.  Some more sauce and more bacon would fix that.  Score: 8/10

Pizza Appearance: The toppings dominate the pizza's appearance, which is normal for a meat lovers pizza.

Dining Atmosphere: Basilico offers a touch of class with real silverware, real glassware, and cloth napkins.  Some classical music provides a classy and pleasant ambiance.

Customer Service: The service was quick and attentive on my visit.

Monetary Value: Basilico offers fairly high quality but at a high price, so the value is not great.

The Final Judgment:

Basilico Greenville offers a great dining experience and good pizza.  Some more sauce and tastier toppings would make it a real winner.  Score: 81/100
