For over 30 years, the Basil Leaf Café & Ristorante, owned by Vito Patronelli, is unlike any other fine Italian eatery on Long Island. Nestled in a quaint shopping center in Locust Valley, his ristorante offers multiple, and equally unique dining rooms. Mr. Patronelli's tried and true concept hosts a spacious dining room for a romantic evening with a loved one or a large party for family and friends to gather. If you prefer a more relaxed setting, look no further than our intimate dining room where you will find a fantastic all brick bar, wood burning stove, and vintage photographs adorning the walls. If you find yourself wishing to dine al fresca when the weather is accommodating, you may enjoy our beautiful common patio separating the two dining rooms. Keep us in mind when looking for a celebratory venue as we offer a stunning event space located on the second floor to host your special, private parties.
