Customer Reviews

Stopped here with my mom today for a late lunch. Food was delicious! I got the garlic parm penne and my mom got goulash- generous portions that included soup/salad bar and fresh, warm bread. Also had a slice of limoncello cake that was amazing. Great service as well. We will definitely be back!

This was our first visit to Bashar's and we want to return soon. The menu selection and food was absolutely amazing. My Gluten free pasta choice was the best I have ever had and the GF bread was delicious. We both loved the salad bar and soup. The chef was very accommodating with my husband's low sodium needs, too. He loved his fish hoagie. We saw many more items on the menu that we would like to try.

First time trying this place from seeing it on "You gotta eat", food was amazing! I think this might've topped Olive Garden for me! Love the menu options, and the clean atmosphere. We went on a Friday night, so expected they were quite busy. We had to wait a bit for a table to open up. Even with the busyness they kept things restocked, restaurant cleaned, and communication throughout the time dinning. Our server was great! I will say the restaurant was a bit cold, but it also was a pretty cold night! I'd say bring a jacket, I ended up keeping my coat on. I also believe our server forgot to ring in our desserts at the end, so that did take a bit longer than anticipated and we had to change desserts from dine in to take out, but it won't stop us from trying again. I completely understand as being in the service industry. I'd definitely recommend giving this place a try! The bread and butter was delicious and perfectly baked!

This is my 1st visit and I wasn't disappointed. The food was cooked to perfection. I had chicken sausage gumbo with salad bar, their bread is amazing with homemade butter, and the garlic chicken parm was delicious and portioned great. I didn't leave hungry.

Waitress was fantastic! Entire staff was friendly and helpful. We were asked multiple times if we needed anything and if we were satisfied with our food and drinks. 1 trip salad/soup bar comes with meals. It was also very good. Chicken piccata on polenta was delicious!
