Thai Basil

I don’t normally leave bad reviews but have tried to give this place a chance many times since the location is close, have tried different dishes but unfortunately each time the food is either extremely greasy or no flavor (this time both).I first ate at this location almost a decade ago and recall the food was decent but something has changed in their cooking style. It’s disappointing to spend over $50 in food only to trash it.

I went there after reading the reviews, but all the tables were empty even though it was dinner time, the plates for the food were pretty and nice, I thought it would be okay to just fry the crispy spring rolls, but as the main menu came out, the disappointment grew. The sauce is stuck, so the seasoning doesn't even go inside, and one side is salty or sweet... I don't think I'll look for it again next time.

Ate lunch with manager on Tuesday afternoon. We were seated promptly and greeted by a friendly server just a couple of minutes after sitting. I ordered a soup followed by a beef stir fry both medium heat finishing with their rendition of fried banana, a favorite Thai dessert for me. The soup had a nice spice level and satisfying broth with good body from the protein and vegetables. The stir fry was okay. I would have appreciated more color on the beef from additional few minutes stir frying and more flavor and a touch of brightness in the broth. Thai food excels in many ways, one of which is the combination of acid and spice which I would have liked to see even in a measured way in the stir fry. The dessert as with the soup had a good thermal heat when served and an attractive appearance. The chocolate drizzle provided a nice accent to the crispy banana wrappers that flaked well when cut with my fork. The banana inside was both thermally hot and soft. Could they offer this same dessert with maybe honey drizzle as another option? Prices seemed reasonable and quite competitive for the area, so I thought I experienced a good value for my lunch. I could return again if I was in the area.(My manager enjoyed her dishes as well.)

Came here for lunch and ordered the drunken noodles. It didn’t taste like drunken noodles and I’ve had these in many places. Ordered a side of white rice and what I got was tiny. I would say overpriced for the flavor and did not taste like normal. The chicken also looks pretty low quality but that’s my take. I got a thai tea too and it was pretty bad. They definitely water down the Jasmine tea and it doesn’t taste the same. I’d go elsewhere, not worth it.
