" Not as good as I expected. The noodles were fine, but my curry wasn’t creamy enough and the flavor fell flat. On the bright side, the restaurant is gorgeous and very cozy. Everything looked great, just wished the taste delivered. " (*Curated Review*)

" Basil is definitely a place I would recommend to anyone looking for a great Thai meal. The prices are reasonable for the quality of food. The service could be improved as it took some time for our server to check in with us. The Pad Thai was definitely a highlight, and I'd love to try more dishes on my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a very enjoyable dinner here. The food was tasty but didn't exactly blow me away. The ambiance was nice, and so was the service, but I felt the flavors could be enhanced a bit more. Still, I'd return to give it another shot! " (*Curated Review*)

" The food here is fantastic! Tried their red curry and the flavors were spot on and evident of authentic Thai cuisine. The atmosphere was a bit too dark for my liking, but it didn’t take away from the experience. Overall, great place! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently visited Basil and was absolutely blown away by the flavors. The green curry was exceptional, vibrant and spicy! The server was pleasant but a bit slow, which impacted the overall experience. Nonetheless, the atmosphere was cozy and inviting, perfect for a relaxed dinner. " (*Curated Review*)

" This has become one of my favorite spots in the city! Their Pad Thai is so authentic and delicious, and the service is always friendly. Atmosphere is casual yet chic, perfect for lunch or dinner. Highly recommend trying their unique cocktails as well! " (*Curated Review*)

" A fantastic Thai restaurant that we discovered recently. The food was flavorful and presented beautifully. We tried a variety of dishes, and each had its own unique twist—definitely not your standard Thai fare. Service, however, was lacking; we spent quite some time waiting for our main course to arrive. " (*Curated Review*)
