Italian food has a long and storied history, and above all, our mission at Il Basilico is to honour that history. Our chefs and staff know Italian cuisine and remember well the recipes served as they were in Italy. We aim to bring that taste of Tuscany to our authentic Italian restaurant in Taunton; delicious and uncomplicated flavours with our unique twist. If you are looking for places to eat in Taunton, we are waiting to welcome you.
Our chef has studied recipes during all their lives but their best ones are nonna’s recipes which are all over our menu
We have come from Toscany to share our love for good food and good drinks
Most of our typical products are coming directly from Italy. Our vegetables and fruit are sourced locally when possible and all the sauces are freshly made every day
Welcome to where the tradition meets the modern
Lorenzo’s passion goes into everything he makes, and as our head chef, nothing less than perfection gets past him. For his whole life, our chef has studied his craft and perfected his recipes, maintaining the authenticity of his nonna’s cooking while updating the flavours for modern palettes. Lorenzo is more than just our chef–he is your host.
The finest dishes from his nonna to your plate
As one of the best restaurants in Taunton, we understand the importance of the relationship with our guests. As a family-run business, this is also another vital aspect of our traditional model; our food is lovingly made as though it were for our own family. We pride ourselves on the level of friendly service we provide, not lost behind a corporate name badge.
