Basil Thai Cuisine

I ordered a Pad Thai from this restaurant, and honestly, it was the worst one I’ve ever had. I’ve had this dish at many Thai restaurants, so I know very well how it should taste and look, and this was nothing close to a real Pad Thai. What I got was basically bland noodles with almost no sauce, no real flavor, and barely any chicken. It felt dry, poorly made, and not appetizing at all. I paid $22 for this, and it was a complete waste of money. I do not recommend this place at all. Out of all the Thai restaurants I’ve tried, this has been the worst, without exaggeration.

This place is great! The staff is so friendly and helpful. Love their pad Thai, so fresh and yummy. The panang curry is delicious, but I think the next time I go I’ll ask for a little less spicy. The curries also do not come with rice so you have to ask for an extra side of rice. Was a really big fan of the cream cheese puffs, but the fried chicken dumplings weren’t my favorite. Normally I’m a big fan of Thai iced tea but I felt like it was a little too concentrated.

We get take out from Basil Thai about twice a month and are never disappointed. The Pad Thai and Crying Tiger are amazing dishes, as is the Drunken Noodles & Cream Cheese Wontons. I've ordered well over half their menu and have liked every dish. I haven't dined in, but the atmosphere is good and it's always crowded, so there you go. Whether you're dining in or ordering take out, this is a great South HB restaurant.

First timer to Basil Thai and it was quite good. The location is a small place with a dozen tables and at 5pm on a Thursday, not busy. The anchor store for this shopping center was obviously T.J. Service was fast, english was spoken clearly at my table with I guess Thai (?) spoken behind the counter. I had Chicken Basil Thai Fried Noodle plate and Tom Yum Noodle Bowl. I could not finish it all which is a good thing for takeaway. Both have a light spicy foundation that was not overwhelming and sufficient for lighter Thai palates. As a local customer, I will return.

This hidden gem is fabulous. The food portions are"ginormous" and packed with flavor. The servers are very friendly and attentive. Whether you dine in or take out, you will not be disappointed.
