The quality of your dining experience may vary depending on the day and time of your visit, but I recently went on the weekend. I tried their Lychee Pineapple curry and it was absolutely delicious. I practically licked the plate clean - it was well-balanced and not overly sweet. The Papaya salad was also excellent and had me licking the plate clean as well. My only complaint is that I wish the portion size for the Papaya salad was bigger. The prices were very reasonable and not pretentious. Compared to other restaurants in the area charging $40-60 per plate, this place was just as good if not better, with a diverse menu offering. It's a great alternative to local favorites like Red Chili wit...

The quantity. Its sooo much! But they don't sacrifice quality for that. So basically you get a lot of good food. Easily for 2 people worth in 1 dish.Order any of their curry and rice. I had the red vegetarian one. Amazing.The spice level is also spot on. Hot means you're ready to get some heat on your tongue and very hot is a real challenge in this August hot weather.Overall, really good food and service.Vegetarian options: A separate section of many vegetarian options with choice to have with or without egg.

I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve had the fried rice here. The Basil Fried Rice Chicken is soooooo good!It is a little pricey for rice, but they give you so much that it’s two meals for me. The staff can be intimidating, but I order takeout so it doesn’t bother me.Thai Basil is a staple of South Side!

The most affordable Thai food I've ever had! For just $20, you can easily feed two people. Fortunately, Thai Basil also delivers on taste, with fresh and flavorful dishes. The only downside is that there may be a slight wait for your food, as you order at the counter and pick a number. Highly recommended! Book a table now

I recently spent a good amount of money there for a catering tray of food. The food is good, but the service is ridiculous! There is one rude older Asian lady that works the register. I think the whole staff can benefit off some good training on customer service. They are definitely lacking it!

As a vegetarian, I often find my choices limited, but this restaurant offered a great variety. It’s a cozy place, perfect for a small group. I ordered the Vegetarian Pad Thai with noodles, and it was excellent. Unfortunately, I didn't have the opportunity to try the other dishes.

Quick and Delicious! Located next to UC Berkeley, this restaurant offers very affordable options for students. The service was (relatively) fast, and the food was absolutely delicious. I ordered the Pad Kee Mao with chicken, and I loved it!

I ordered the pad thai with tofu and was disappointed to find only four pieces of tofu in the dish. It seemed a bit deceptive. Additionally, the prices were high without any justification for the cost. Book a table now

The Basil Chili Seafood at this restaurant is incredibly delicious, especially if you can handle the heat of the Thai hot level. The flavors are amazing!
