The food was good and they have a solid selection of beers. Server was attentive, without "hovering" over us, and she quickly resolved a problem with the bill. Although there is a bar, I'd still consider this a family friendly place.

Comfortable atmosphere. Friendly service. Delicious wings. Gluten free pizza was very good. Daily specials. Strongly recommend if you're in the area.

Incredible resteraunt in the cooks forest area. It's one of the best burgers I have had in a long time. I did not see any other items besides burgers since Monday is burger day. The atmosphere is very nice, with nice lighting and seating. It is on the higher end for prices, but it is worth it. The food came out perfect, and the wait time was short. The staff was very pleasant and answered all of the questions.The only part that was minimal was trying to track down the waitress for refills. She didn't come and ask either, but as she said, she was very nice, but also had a large table that she was taking care of. They have daily specials, and we will be back.

Such an amazing experience.The last time I was here it was still under old ownership of the Iron Mountain and it was great back then and it's even better now. From the moment I walked in the door the environment was classy and clean, every staff member was extremely kind and ready to serve, the table was very comfortable, the music choices where... Random to say the least but that's probably the most I'll complain. Every single thing we ordered was amazingly fresh, hot, and delicious. I included pictures of the food, the atmosphere, and even the extremely clean and well stocked restroom. The hostess was quick to seat us and happy to list off what was good, our server knew pretty much everything about the menu and what we asked her, as well as being extremely nice. 10/10 experience and I will most certainly be visiting again to try something different. The prices where average, not cheap but certainly not expensive, honestly its what you would expect to pay. I love seeing businesses like this do great and do nothing but please the guest and try to make a buck and Cousin Basils does an extremely good job.

Wonderful service and delicious food! Their pumpkin soup was absolutely delightful; it was rich, perfectly spiced, and ideal for a cozy meal. The side salad is well balanced and fresh. It was overall a wonderful experience.

This place is a NEW MUST VISIT if you love food with outstanding flavor and perfect presentation. The textures were right, the preperation was right, the flavors were right. The portions were generous and the prices were excellent for a meal of this quality. The new owner and manager have taken it to the next level. I was impressed with the quality of their meats. Theres some things they have yet to get Ironed out, but I expect it will only continue to improve. We were told they just finished installing a Ten Tap upgrade to the bar area today. Theres something on the menu for everyone and the menu selections are impressive. My wifes favorite is a steak sandwich. She has tried them from anywhere we have been that serves them. She said the Steak Sandwich here is the best she has ever eaten. I did not ask if the table bread was baked in house, but I suspect it is. I will ask when I visit again. We didnt take a picture of the wings, but they were great. Perfectly sauced and crispy outside, tender and moist inside. A. IF YOUR A FOODIE, DONT PASS THIS PLACE UP!

Had a beer and picked up some food to go for some winter camping. Everyone's food was excellent, generous serving size, beer was good and cold, and the service was fast and friendly. Prices were about on point for a nice restaurant. 20-25 bucks for a large burger and Cajun fries. Fries were really good, fresh cut.

This place is fantastic. I can see why it's a local favorite. I always stop by when I'm camping in Cooksburg. The quality and amount of food you get for the price is unbeatable. My dinners were served with fresh bread and a huge salad, and the entrées are big enough for two meals.
