The Concept
At Basil, we celebrate the art of Asian dining with a modern twist. Our kitchen is inspired by the bustling streets and hidden courtyards of Asia, where flavors are bold, dishes are shared, and every meal tells a story.
We bring together timeless Asian recipes and fresh local ingredients, reimagining them through a contemporary lens. Each plate is crafted to balance flavor, texture, and color—meant not only to satisfy but also to surprise.
Our bar mirrors this philosophy, blending Asian botanicals, spices, and spirits into inventive cocktails designed to awaken the senses. Whether you’re sipping something refreshing under the stars or pairing it with your meal, every drink is an extension of the journey.

The Team
Annie
General Manager
We’re a crew of dreamers, food lovers, and adventure seekers who traded city streets for island life. At Basil, we channel that energy into creating vibrant flavors and fresh experiences—where modern Asian cuisine meets the laid-back spirit of Zanzibar. Together, we’re not just serving food, we’re curating moments worth remembering.
