Such a great meal! My husband and I have been trying to eat healthier and with more intention-- we knew we needed to make a healthy decision after out exploring all day so we stopped by Basal. Let me tell you, the experience was immaculate- from the moment we stepped in, to the cleanliness, the fellow patrons, the staff-- everything was amazing! The food was fresh, tasty and plentiful. Super thankful this place is here in town, will definitely be frequenting more often.

Great food, excellent service, pricey if you build your own salad, but standard menu options are reasonable.

Quick stop for some smoothies for the kids and a matcha and vanilla latte for the adults. Kids weren’t crazy about the smoothies, but we liked them. Healthy and flavorful! The matcha and latte were solid.

Absolutely loved the build your own salad. The warm breakfast bowl was fantastic too. The pesto stirfry was tasty, but mostly rice. We would've liked more veggies. They were happy to put our to go orders in our own Tupperware's. Save the Earth! And we absolutely love the bone broth! The strawberry rhubarb smoothie sounded tasty. The only thing that can make it better is if they had fermented veggies!

Second time visiting. Always fresh, many options including a build your own. The poppyseed salad was awesome with chunks of chicken, jicama, and pistachio. The first visit was a year or so ago and was also great. They have some of the most interesting drinks, I had an infused seltzer with lemongrass but the cardamon black tea sounded amazing as well.

The Brussels Caesar salad with chicken is sooooooooooo incredibly delicious. We happened upon this place memorial day weekend looking for some fresh and delicious lunch. Wow, what a treat. The food was absolutely incredible. The space was super cute and clean. And the staff was so wonderful. We had a huge group and they were so accommodating. Would 1000000% recommend stopping in for a salad and smoothie when you're in town!
