" I can't praise Basil Thai enough! The hot pot experience here is amazing, and I love how you can choose your ingredients. I tried the Panang curry hot pot, and it was genuinely delicious with just the right amount of heat. The staff were incredibly helpful in guiding me through my first order. A must-visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" The atmosphere at Basil Thai is so inviting. I decided to go there based on recommendations. I enjoyed the hot pot, but some items I picked weren't as fresh as I had hoped. Still, they have a decent selection and nice ambiance. Service was friendly and helpful. " (*Curated Review*)

" Ordered takeout from Basil Thai and had a really nice experience! The curry was flavorful and had nice heat, while the fried rice was perfectly cooked. I recommend their hot pot as well, as I heard great things! I’ll definitely be returning soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been to Basil Thai twice now, and I've enjoyed it both times! If I haven’t had their hot pot yet, I would have said that their Drunken Noodles are my favorite. However, they definitely have a solid hot pot that keeps me coming back! Service is usually decent too! " (*Curated Review*)

" Did a takeout order from Basil Thai recently and I was impressed by how everything came packed neatly. The flavors of the yellow curry were aromatic and divine, yet a bit on the sweeter side for me. The egg rolls were crispy, and overall I was satisfied—but dining in seems like it would be even better. " (*Curated Review*)

The flavors were spot on, and I especially loved the tofu they served. I also appreciated the flexibility in choosing my ingredients. Can't wait to go back! " (*Curated Review*)

" This place is a hidden gem! I loved everything about my experience. Their hot pot is a must-try! I ordered the spicy broth, and it was fantastic! Everything was so fresh and flavorful. I would definitely come back here in a heartbeat! " (*Curated Review*)
