Basil's

$-$$$, Italian, Kailua-Kona

User Rating: **** 4.4

Fodor's Review:

This tiny traditional trattoria is nothing special, really -- the tablecloths are checkered, the candles are in chianti bottles, there's spaghetti on the menu, and it always feels a little hot and greasy inside. That said, the pizza is decent, the beer's cheap, and you can't beat the location. It's on Alii Drive in downtown Kailua-Kona, right across the street from the ocean.

We enjoyed this place. The food was good and staff was top notch. A great place for wine.The owner sat and chatted with us just like we were family.
