I recently had the pleasure of dining at Thai basil, amazing food and top-notch service! Their Thai tea is a must try, it's the perfect balance of sweet tea and creamy milk. I opted for the panang curry, and wow... the flavors were so rich and deep, with generous chunks of chicken. Their fried tofu was also a highlight, crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, with a side of perfectly made spicy sauce with crushed peanuts. If you're looking for a spot that delivers on flavor and quality with great service, look no further!

Although I've been going to this restaurant for years, I now live in Norfolk and still go back every time I have a reason to be over there on the other side of the tunnel. The staff is always super nice and the food is excellent. Everything I've ordered and everything my family has ordered has always been on point. I also think the inside of this place is nice to eat in although You can also feel safe getting food to go knowing everything will be correct. Ingredients always taste super fresh and the seasoning is always excellent.

Was in the mood for Thai food and wanted to try Thai Basil knowing it was up the street from me. I ordered thru door dash and 10/10! I got the Yaki Soba noodles with chicken and the fresh veggie spring rolls. The sauce served with the fresh rolls was sooo good too. I was very happy with the price of my food, the food itself and the portion sizes were perfect! I will definitely be back to dine in.
