Went to dinner with 10 persons and had an a la carte menu. Great service and the food was excellent. Building is very nice decorated and tastefully furnished. You can also eat outside

This is a standard for us when visiting Hannover on business, it never disappoints and always offers impeccable service, with wonderfully cooked food. This week I went for their suckling pigs cheeks as an appetiser and the veal as an entree, very subtle flavours and cooked to perfection. Their wine list is very good and reasonably priced too. Definitely worth... More

The first thing I noticed was the nice evironment. A lovely restaurant. We took the menu 1 and menu 2. I was nice to see you have the choice to take the menu without dessert. A huge amount of wines. And the sommelier tells you all about it if you want. Friendly staff. Overall a very nice experience.

We had a pleasant dinner. The location is nice and the service is perfect (really friendly, with a lot of attention). There is a huge amount of wines from all over the world. We took two predefined menus. The food is presented very well in the dishes. The quality of ingredients is very good. We were a little disappointed by... More

Now during winter, they are ready to take your winter coat, hang it and then usher you to your table. They do have different combinations on the menus for 4 course means with options to choose all or some of the courses. The waiter was so professional and the food is well done. The ambience is elegant and it is... More

What a great dining experience. It's a MUST-DO in Hannover. Had a 4 course dinner - and great (yet affordable wine) from their very extensive wine list. Pre-dinner cocktail and coffee/cognac to finish the dinner of. Total bill per person was around 80 euro, which was surprisingly low for a dinner of this quality. Would come back again - sooner...

You really need to know how to find this restaurant because it is not in the center of the city. But once you do the experience will make it worth your wile. The food is great, the service is excellent, they have a wine card with 1000 different wines to choose from and the prices are really realistic. Not cheap,... More

My German friends were the ones who selected this place. Having read at Trip Advisor some reviews of this place, I confirmed that everything that has been said before it is true.

We are traveling across Germany to a wedding north of Berlin. Staying at Hannover and Dresden along the way. We found Basil via TripAdvisor and had dinner there last night. We have travelled the world extensively and have eaten at many fine restaurants. But Basil is by far one of the stand out restaurants in the world. The owner, staff... More
