Worth it for / Skip if
Worth it for — a table you can lock in — seats are booked through SevenRooms; arriving by train — the record puts it 3 minutes on foot from Orchard Boulevard MRT.
Skip if — you are deciding at the door: the record carries a booking route, not a walk-in policy.
Every clause above is drawn from a named field in this venue's record — a published price, a booking route, the verified hours — and nothing else.
What it costs
No priced item is on record for this venue. Forkin publishes a price only where a dated public source carries it, so nothing is estimated here. The venue's own published price band is $$$.

The longer version
Basilico draws positive but primarily descriptive coverage as a long-standing Italian buffet destination at Conrad Singapore Orchard. Eatbook praises its cheese room and antipasti spread, and Rubbish Eat Rubbish Grow highlights the raw bar and pasta station. Critical depth is limited, with reviews focusing more on the breadth of the buffet than on specific culinary evaluation.

Day-by-day hours are not verified for this venue.

Hours are published here only once a dated source has been read for the whole week, so a partial week is never shown as a full one.

The Forkin Evidence Score is a transparent calibration of the published evidence behind this venue's editorial stamp — not a personal dining rating, and never derived from Google data. It starts from the stamp's base value, applies the five evidence adjustments below, then clamps the result inside the stamp's band.

WORTH A LOOK
Confidence: mediumForkin desk assessment of attributable public coverage — not a personal dining review.
Batch 50 re-verification confirms 2 dated, attributable, exact-outlet countable assessments (Fire Forty Six and The Yum List). Their registered highest publisher calibre is established, not 'independent', so B46-R1 corrects criticCalibre to established and recomputes the score to 7.8. The existing WORTH A LOOK verdict remains supported by the record’s assessed evidence balance.

Both countable reviews are independent blog publications rather than major-critic coverage. The outlet changed hotel branding from Regent Singapore to Conrad Singapore Orchard without moving; pre-rebrand coverage can therefore refer to the same physical outlet only where the 1 Cuscaden Road/Level 2 identity is clear. Legacy-evidence remediation batch 2, 2026-08-11. Every source was re-retrieved, re-dated and re-checked for exact-outlet match and independence. Countable evidence 2 -> 2; stamp WORTH A LOOK -> WORTH A LOOK; score 7.7 -> 7.8.
