Thai Basil in Madison has become my ultimate go-to place for exceptional Thai cuisine. I’ve been there five times in just a month, and every visit has been consistently amazing! The Thai Street food offerings are absolutely outstanding. The food is truly unbelievable, no exaggeration. The atmosphere is beautiful, clean, and warmly inviting. Thai Basil is now one of my top choices, like Cyndi Lauper’s song “Time After Time” I’ll be there

Excellent lunch at Thai Basil! The owner came and chatted with us at our table and gave us the history. If you recall that another Thai restaurant used to be here just know that Thai Basil and the old restaurant are not related and Thai Basil is more of a sit down, wait service restaurant, not a carry-out place (though of course you can order to carry out).

After renovation ambiance has become pleasant and soothing. We had Cashew Chicken and KRA PROW MOO KROB (Spicy Pork).. chicken was just boiled so was not tasty (3/5), though the gravy was good. Pork was well fried and crispy (5/5). Quantity was good and remember they serve rice along with every gravy item. Host lady was super helpful.

They just moved to this location. Definitely top tier Thai food in Madison. Ha Long Bay and Thai Basil are the best. Sai Bong Thong down the road should look out they have an inferior product.

Dropped by for some dinner with a few friends. It was our first time, and looks like they had just relocated to University Ave.

I had been meaning to try this place since they opened. I had mid expectation… man they blew me away. It is a gem. Quality of the ingredients was above average (super fresh) and prepared with some love. Just the right combo of mainstay items and some things off the beaten path. We gravitated to the sweeter and hotter items. Atmosphere was better than expected, we have been back a few times and prefer sitting in the bag to watch the kitchen. The real home run is the staff, just really nice people you can tell care about this place.
