We decided to give Blu Basil a try Saturday night for something different.  We entered and weren't quite sure what to do.  Do we wait to be seated?  Do we order at that counter way in the back of the restaurant?  We stood at the front pretending to read the menus, watching what other people were doing.  We discovered that, yes, indeed, you order at the back and then take a seat, any seat.  Kinda like one of the noodle places here in town.  Now that we had the basics down, we could walk past everyone sitting, order at the counter, get our number, and go grab a table.  \n\nI ordered the grilled chicken and prosciutto panini, which was actually very good.  It was toasted just right and the ingredients were very flavorful.  The pesto pasta salad I ordered with it was tasty, too.  \n\nUnfortunately, we decided that Blu Basil isn't quite sure what it wants to be.  Is it breakfast, lunch or dinner?  Is it a fast food or sit-down restaurant?  Is it a restaurant or a coffee bar?  Is it a nice place to relax?  Is it a sports bar?  Is it a place to bring the kids and watch TV?  Yes, there were four unstrategically placed TVs along one wall of the restaurant, which clashed with the modern Cheesecake Factory-style lighting fixtures.  \n\nI think Blu Basil has potential, but it just needs to work out the details.  I think they'd do well by taking out the TVs, making it into a service restaurant (no ordering at the counter) and converting the back area into a real coffee bar with atmosphere.  OR there needs to be more signage so first-timers know what to do when they walk in.
