What People Are Saying About Thai Basil

In Short
Brightly painted walls are decorated with huge colorful fish. The room is crowded with tables and almost always noisy, putting a damper on intimate conversation. Entree options include tofu, chicken or shrimp smothered in not-too-garlicky brown sauce. Curries are rich, but not too heavy; spicy, but not brutal. The panang has coconut flavor and a lot of fresh, crisp veggies. For dessert, there's sweet and delicious ice cream, in green-tea or red-bean flavors.

This is a great date spot. The atmosphere is very soothing and cultural. The food is served uniquely. The service was nice and fast. The food was delicious. I have ordered from them for delivery at least once a week since my initial visit.

The food is great, but the service is embarassing. We walked in tonight at 9:55pm, and were informed upon seating that closing time is 10:30, so we better eat quick. At 10pm they started cleaning the floors, stacking chairs, while we were rushed our meal, extended no courtesy whatsoever by the staff, and not even asked if we wanted anything to drink. We were out the door by 10:20pm, so was the staff. Take out from here, don't eat in, you'll have a more enjoyable dining experience at your kitchen table.
