Basil's Chicken was founded in 1986 by the Malliaras family on the belief that people should be able to take their families out to eat a fresh, healthy dinner free of preservatives, msg, and frying.

OMG. The 2 piece white, mashed potatos & gravy, salad, was the best thing I've eaten in a while. The portions were large and well priced. I will definitely order again.

We order from DoorDash more than I like to admit with varying degrees of success. Sarasota has some fine restaurants but it isnt known as a foodie town.
Basils however is EXCELLENT!
Their grilled chicken is some of the best I've had anywhere in the country. It's always cooked perfectly. Crispy skin, juicy meat & packed with flavor.
And their ribs shockd me. I've tried a dozen places here in SRQ ... so far Basils has topped them all easily. It's fall off the bone tender & perfectly seasoned / sauced.
I'll bet we order from here 5-6 times a month.

Half rack ribs is about 1/4 of a full slab but tender. Chicken kind of dry. Mac n cheese super bland. Taste like canned floorless cheese. Corn on the cob is 1/3 of the cob just for reference. Gravy tastes like turkey stuffing and something sour. Maybe ranch powder? or sour cream? Pita bread so so. Probably won't order again.

This is always one of my go-to places when I really do not feel like fast food, especially for their pasta salad and gyros. my 1 year old LOVES the Mashed Potatoes. everything came quick and hot. (I only live like 2 minutes away) however, I feel like the quality of this place is decreasing every time I go. My pitafor my Gyro Sandwich was so soggy from the water down dressing that wasn't able to pick ot up to eat it. the dressing wasnt even sticking to my pasta because it's so watered down.

Never disappointed always great. Chicken is flavorful and not dried out. The Greak salad and dressing is always crispy and fresh.
