" Our family ate here, and while I was impressed by the speed of service, the flavors didn’t impress. My basil chicken was bland and seemed like it was missing the signature flavors I usually expect from Thai food. The ambiance was nice though, I still hope my next visit results in a more favorable meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" Last Friday, my friends and I visited The Basil and overall we had a fantastic time. Each dish we ordered was delightful and reflected true Thai cuisine. The only downside was the wait for our food, which was longer than expected. The server was very apologetic and offered us free drinks while we waited, which was a nice touch. I’ll be back again soon, just hopefully at a less busy time! " (*Curated Review*)

" We visited The Basil last weekend and ordered a selection of dishes including the Pad Thai and Tom Yum soup. While the dishes were flavorful, I found the Pad Thai a bit sweeter than I'm used to. The soup, however, was delicious with a perfect balance of spice. The atmosphere could use some sprucing up, but overall a pleasantly satisfying meal. I would consider coming back to explore more of their menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" I took my family for dinner here, and we had a wonderful time enjoying a range of dishes. The pad thai was particularly good, although I might have preferred it slightly less sweet. The environment was casual and inviting, which helped make our visit enjoyable. The service staff were polite and checked in with us frequently, which enhanced our experience. I can definitely see us returning in the future! " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience was all over the place. The service was not as quick as I hoped, but the food made up for it. Once it finally arrived, the flavors were on point. The green curry was rich, and the ingredients were fresh. Unfortunately, my initial impression of service kept me from enjoying the meal as much as I would have liked. Not sure if I’d hurry back. " (*Curated Review*)

" The Basil has a very unique atmosphere, resembling a cozy little Thai oasis. Most of the food items I ordered were fairly authentic and packed with flavor. Yet, I felt the service could’ve been a bit more attentive, as my glass emptied often. Overall, a pleasant experience with a few minor hiccups. " (*Curated Review*)

" Wonderful experience at The Basil. The Pad See Ew I had was mouthwatering, and the presentation was lovely too. The prices are reasonable considering the quality of food served. I appreciate that they pay attention to making the food fresh and authentic. Will certainly come back for more! " (*Curated Review*)
