Basilico Express, located on Al Bourooj St, offers a taste of Italy to visitors in Dubai. This restaurant focuses on popular Italian dishes, inviting guests for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. It aims to cater to those who enjoy classic Italian flavors with a variety of offerings such as pasta and pizza.

The dining experience at Basilico Express has previously been well-received, particularly by students from the nearby Knowledge Village, who appreciated the satisfying portions and vibrant flavors. However, past reviews mentioned that the pricing leaned towards the expensive side, which might not align with the budget of the student community in the area.

Operating from Monday to Thursday and during the weekends, the restaurant opens its doors at 9:00 AM and closes at 6:00 PM. Despite past acclaim for its food, there have been occasional reports of ingredient shortages and unpredictable closures, leading to some inconsistency in service and food quality over time. It's worth noting that the most recent feedback about Basilico Express is a decade old, and prospective visitors might wish to seek out current reviews or updates to get a contemporary sense of the restaurant's offerings and reliability.

Being a student at the Knowledge Village, the opening of Basilico was much awaited as being a pasta lover, and there was no good pasta place around for lunch.

I found the prices to be on the higher side especially as knowledge village is a student community, I had expected lower prices.

However, for a good few months the food was delicious. I tried a variety of things from there such as Primavera Pasta in Pink Sauce, Margarita Pizza, Veg. lasagna, etc. and the taste and portions were decently satisfying.

Soon however, I used to find this place running out of many ingredients to cook the dish you ordered or many a times the place itself remained closed for long periods. It even took really long to prepare your meals and towards the end even the food quality deteriorated which ended up in a huge disappointment.
