Quick update - STILL Amazing!! Had to add a picture of the combination plate. It was all great and the sauces were over the top! The best way to give a quick overview of this restaurant would be to say that it is simply stunning on all levels! Let's start with the very clean and well decorated restaurant that makes you feel comfortable just walking in. If you call your order in or if you order when you get there, they have a very nice area to wait for your food. The food was well presented, exploding with multiple fresh flavors and spices! I really enjoy Thai food BUT, Sweet Basil took my love for Thai food to another level! Thank you SO much for what you do to make what comes out of the kitchen simply amazing! The last thing that needs to be mentioned is the way the staff relates to the customers. This was our first time at this restaurant and my wife had some questions. They answered all of her questions with patience and concern. We felt welcome here right from the start but the way they talked to many of the other customers was like they were chatting with family. I am guessing that these were regular visitors but the fact that they talked to people by name was impressive. Even more impressive that they helped people with their orders that could use some assistance. Start to finish, this was a fantastic visit. The food and staff will bring me back anytime I am in the area. I wish they were open more - AND I lived closer - but when you work with that much passion, you deserve some time off! Keep up the great work!
Thai and Laotion specialties done with fresh ingredients and expertly prepared. I loved their version of pad Thai and their Jeow Bong fried rice. I saw the next tables char grilled beef skewers and I'm getting that next time for sure. Very busy place.
This place is amazing! I visited from Central Florida and am used to larger operations with a certain food quality (Disney, Universal,…) and when I got there it was small, but very high on customer service. It has the feel of a “hole in the wall” place run with a family restaurant atmosphere. Every person we talked to was beyond delighted we were there and offered specialized service for our dining experience. The wait is a bit long, but after tasting the food I can see why. The food taste and quality was high above anything I’ve gotten even at Disney and places I’m used to. They obviously make all items fresh and as you order. It was modestly priced, less expensive than I’d pay at McDonald’s honestly. The post dinner was on point as well and all staff were not just sitting around, they were all very hard working and friendly. Overall, I’d make it a stop every time I’m in town! I can’t say enough about the food though, extremely satisfying and we intended to leave with leftovers, but we finished everything. Clean plate club!!!
Excellent Thai Food and exceptional service. I loved everything especially the pad thai, marinated beef skewers & egg rolls. I can't wait to return.
Delicious! So glad we found this place. I’m from out of state but since we found this place a couple years ago it’s made our list of places to get food from almost every time we come to visit family in the area! Love that they have a separate vegan menu with tons of choices, and are very knowledgeable about their vegan offerings. The jeow bong noodles are a must-have and what we get pretty much every time! Also love the tofu skewers, and other family members have enjoyed a variety of other things on the menu. If you like really spicy food, I recommend going for the top of the spice scale because it’s not as intense as some other Thai places. Also wait times can be long but it’s worth it, just make sure to account for this and call early!
