Horrible! Never enter Thai Basil! It is down the hill!

by Mikayla123

Thai Basil is a horrible! They say it is a thai restraunt but is it not! It is all American Chinese food! The Drunken Noodles are all covered and sunk with stinky nasty goo! The service was extremly terrible! They don' ask you if you want to drink anything or if you would like to sit where. All they do when you enter is say nothing so you get your own menu and take a seat. The food took about 3 minutes to get here. I asked for sprite and they gave it to me when we were about to pay and go home. Horrilbe I regret paying 66 dolars eating just 2 Drunken Noodles and 2 orders of Srping Rolls.

DON'T RECOMMENDED THIS RESTRAUNT TO ANYONE!

• Pros: Bad Service and Food
• Cons: I will never come back ever again!

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.

• Pros: good atmosphere, great food
• Cons: parking may be an issue

Pathetic Service

by jflynn07

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.

• Pros: Food is really good.
• Cons: Service is really bad, very unfriendly.

Horrible!

by hey1

This place is WAYYYYY too over rated! The price is reasonable but the food is horrible! More than 75% of the dishes are chinese NOT THAI!! The spring rolls were hard and I believe it's been a day or 2 old. If you want chinese food, then you should come here.

Not authentic Thai I was hoping for

by Kim88899

I didn't find the food to be authentic Thai at all. Itwas more like American Chinese. I was disappointed.

My family enjoys take out several nights a week from our area restaurants. Thai Basil is in our top 3 favorites because everything we have eaten from there is amazing. We have not been able to enjoy the restaurant for some time because we are unable to find an on line menue.

• Pros: The best Thai I have ever had anywhere in the world

Great atmosphere, delicious Sesame Beef!

by pastazia

As soon as I walked into Thai Basil, I was impressed. I enjoy a romantic atmosphere and Thai Basil has it! I love the big stuffed chairs, the "canopy bed" style booths, the twinkling candle-lit tables, and the arched ceiling. Eating at Thai Basil truly is a beautiful experience.

I also enjoyed the food. My favorite is the Sesame Beef. Some people have complained about the food being too sweet, but I thought it was wonderful! The vegetables were exceedingly fresh. In fact, when I visited the downtown location, I spied one of their workers preparing fresh snow peas from a big box. I'm not a big vegetable lover, but I have to say, I thoroughly enjoyed the zucchini, broccoli, peppers, onions, cauliflower, mushrooms, and baby corn cobs that came with my Sesame Beef.

My only complaint is that it cost more to have fried rice rather than steamed rice with the entres. At the Park Meadows location, I was told that I would have to pay the full 7.95 price to have fried rice with my entre. At the downtown location, it was only 1.00 extra and well worth it. I'm suspicious that the waiter at the Park Meadows location may have been misinformed. Instead, we opted for the brown rice. It was good, but not nearly as flavorful as the fried rice.

I have to say, Thai Basil is now my favorite Asian restaurant and has made it onto my list of "places I can't resist!"

• Pros: Ambience, taste, price
