Basil's Seafood Restaurant

On the edge of Lane Cove National Park and In the heart of North Ryde, Basil's Seafood Restaurant is serving up fruits of the sea with a touch of class.

Spacious and uncluttered, at Basil's less is more. Low ceilings facilitate a sense of intimacy whilst the breadth of the dining room ensures a luxurious sense of space, where the low hum of activity accompanies any special occasion. Punctuated by pristine white tablecloths and glossy lounge chairs, Basil's is anything you want it to be. Make sure to arrive slightly early for a glass of fizz before this unforgettable culinary adventure begins.

To begin, dip your toes into the ocean with the roasted scallops with the crunchy bitterness of garlic butter radish, delicate tuna tartar with truffle peaches or fresh Pacific oysters with an array of accompanying oils and flavours.

The main courses plunge head-first into oceanic opulence. With whole snapper, John Dory, and rainbow trout lining the menu, these delicate fish are given all the respect they deserve with considered sides that bring out all their best aspects. If, however, you fancy something other than fish, there are a range of steaks available; just perfect with a side of hand cut chips or garlic bread. When it comes to stunning seafood, Basil's has all the answers.
