What people say, in short
Artichoke Basille's recommendations span its New York outlets, including East 14th Street. A diner enjoys hefty, saucy slices, while other diners praise the margherita or vodka slice. The namesake artichoke slice is especially divisive: one visitor finds it satisfying, while critics find it overwhelmingly creamy or simply dislike it. Cost is another reservation, and historical queue reports are not a promise of current conditions.
