Reviews of Basta

Had dinner here on a Wednesday evening, was quickly received by the head waiter and got a seat at the back of the restaurant as I had asked for a seat where it is a little quieter when I booked a table. The restaurant is located at the top of the Åhléns building and they have a roof terrace there that is open in the summer (I have to go there then!!)

The environment in the restaurant is so damn nice, you get
Totally warm from the décor! A real Italian bistro feeling 😍, so nice porcelain and everything.

The kitchen is located next to the restaurant and you got to see when they make their pasta and bake the pizzas ☺️

It was a three-course meal so for starters we had their carpaccio and macaroncini. It was good but the macaroncini wasn't that fun, felt doughy and the macaroni was overcooked so it was almost just a batter of everything 😅

For the main course we had their paradiso pollo and truffle pasta. And damn they were so good, creamy, flavorful, the pasta was not al dente which I like as I can think they get too hard sometimes. It was perfectly cooked!

For dessert we had tiramisu and lemon sundae. The tiramisu was really good, a lot of coffee in it and good zabaionn cream. It's rare that I'm satisfied with tiramisu at restaurants so I was really happy that it was so good! Lemon sundae, such a cool arrangement! A twist of lemon meringue pie with lemon sorbet, creamy lemon filling and biscuits in the bottom. Incredibly tasty! 😍

Dinner yesterday with the best Emma & Tessan, at the Italian restaurant Basta, at the top of Åhléns City Stockholm. 🇮🇹🍝🍕🍨 Big cozy room with Italian vibes. Really good Italian menu. Pasta, pizza, risotto, tiramisu, yes everything you would expect in a good Italian. 😋 100's of seats in the restaurant. Outdoor seating in the summer. Something constructive would be to spice up the truffle pasta. Really good but didn't look so fun. Well worth a visit! Really good but the wow feeling was missing for a 5.

Nice pizza, very meehh. Different service, a bit of a mix of Joe and the juice guy and salesman at Brothers, we 😅 had the food arrived very quickly after ordering, can be very positive or a bit strange! I'll have to test the pasta almost once.

Ate a great pizza here. Good vibe, but tough to stand in line and wait. It's great to take the elevator down with one of the staff if åhlens is closed.

I've been here again and eaten pasta. Was very happy with it.

Been here twice now and been just as happy with both visits! I think the environment is very lovely even though I think they should skip the plastic details in the interior, like the lemons and plastic charcuterie that hangs by the kitchen. It makes it look a little less genuine, I think the rest of the décor is so beautiful! Love the outdoor seating, nice tables and sunbaths and beautiful cushions and parasols. It's fun to have a place that dares to go all in on the décor. Last time I was here I had a truffle pizza with whipped ricotta that was incredibly good! I think their pizzas are very good. Bellinin is incredible too! I also think the service is good. It's not a place I would book a table to go out and eat but it's great as a Friday lunch place on a summer day on the outdoor terrace!

Located between 3-4. I like it, it's better than totally okay, but is it really 4 🤷 ♀️.
I think it's so lovely to get into a place and it feels like you're as far away from a heated ahlens, or rainy Drottniggtan as you can get. So it is here, the room is colorful and playful and does not miss any details. It is a warm and happy room with a nice terrace and comfortable furniture. We were here one summer day and got a seat on the terrace.

All the staff were nice but it was very difficult to know who was our waiter, because there were many who arrived and another who came with food, confusing and nothing I prefer. There were many drinks on the menu and I was recommended one (can't remember what it was called), I asked if it was very sweet as I don't prefer it, but it wouldn't be... Well it was so cute I didn't even drink it up.

The food was great! We shared both pizza, pasta and small picks and thought that everything was good, really good (even charcuterie that did not come in the picture).

Would like to go here again and hope that it will be a more clear 4a.

The children were given crayons and painting blocks, always appreciated.

There's genuine Italian food, thriving cocktails and AW hang out 🍋🍝🍹 I'm really looking forward to coming back this fall and testing their pizza menu! I can warmly recommend the truffle paste. It was magical 😍💭✨

Update - come back to test the truffle pizza. It was nothing sensational. Recommend choosing the pasta!

So beautiful place and good food good portions but then we had to wait to go out of the restaurant and I understand the thing that the guard doesn't want to go to the elevator more times but we had to wait for 5 other parties and we had to stand there for a long time safely more than 10 min. I panicked feeling completely locked in. So I think you shouldn't have to wait for others to take the elevator down the guard to be able to walk more times ... it was the only boring juste and the staff having to stand up more times for them to see us... otherwise cruelly beautiful place nice summer abroad feeling

Newly opened on Åhléns roof terrace! Given a fantastic view, but also wonderful staff. The décor was really lovely. We each ordered a Prosecco Passion which was really good, a Pasta Allora Mare (5/5!) and a Margherita which I wish had tasted even more tomato. Really nice place, recommend this for a nice summer evening. Be there well in advance if you want to have tables outdoors!
