Editorial Review for Thai Basil – by Bryce Edmonds

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.

Insider Tips

When to Go

No reservation? Go early or late on weekend nights.

Parking

Cruising for a spot is the only option; it's in a residential neighborhood near a small commercial district.

Where to Sit

The patio offers a more mellow experience and is a year-round option--it's covered and heated in winter.

1 Star Rating: Not Recommended

I can't imagine why this place place gets good reviews. My husband and I tried it after reading the recommendations. It was terrible! The sauces in both of our dishes looked and tasted like they came out of a jar, and we both ended up with upset stomachs shortly after we ate! The meals seemed more like American Chinese food than authentic Thai. If you want authentic Thai food, do not go to Thai Basil. Sorry.

Editor's Review

There's always a line and it's loud, but the reasonably priced Thai food is more than good.  See the full editorial review.
