If you’re looking for food that tastes good, look elsewhere. We ordered pork fried rice, drunken noodles (medium), sweet and sour chicken, and yellow curry chicken (Thai hot). We were disappointed the minute we got it home and took the packages out of the box. I will post pictures, but the 4 dishes were almost $60 and 100% not with it. The portions were very small for that price. The rice had zero flavor. My nine-year-old said Panda Express has better rice. I was so disappointed because it looked good but tasted like nothing. The sweet and sour chicken also had zero flavor. The chicken pieces were incredibly small and very dry. The drunken noodles were supposed to be medium heat, but not spicy at all. At least it had some flavor and was edible compared to the previously mentioned dishes. The curry was supposed to be hot, but was barely medium. Again at least it had flavor, but not what was expected when ordering something that is supposed to be spicy. To summarize, if you’re looking for good food, look somewhere else.

Enjoyed having lunch here. The service was very friendly and attentive. Started with the lettuce wrap appetizer, which was delicious. The lettuce could have been bigger to hold everything, though. The Chicken Pad Thai was very tasty, and the spice was perfect for me. They offered medium and Thai spicy. I went with the Thai spicy since I prefer my food on the spicier side. The atmosphere was cozy and relaxing. I will be back to try something new on their huge menu.

Awesome Vegan Options, check this place out!!! Stopped by for lunch, and they easily made a hybrid vegan option for us. Spring rolls with plum sauce were on point. Drunken noodles with veggies and tofu. The flavor and spice were perfect. The noodles didn’t stick together, and they were not oily and greasy. They were just right. The veggies were fresh, and it was just a great experience. Service was awesome, friendly, and fast. This is our new Thai place in the valley.

Service was good. Food came out fairly quick. The food can be order as medium or spicy. Medium is pretty mild while spicy is very very spicy. The Thai tea was a bit too sweet for me. I would want 50% less sweet. No tapioca in it. The food was good. The general taos chicken had the perfect amount of light crunch to it. Prices were reasonable. Portion size was normal. Not large or too small. Overall I would eat here again.

One of the best Thai restaurants around in my opinion. Great food, very nice restaurant atmosphere, phenomenal service (shout-out to Lisa for always being an amazing server). Can be pricey, especially because portion sizes have gone down recently. Sometimes the food is a little bit salty, but it still has good flavor. The only item which I *know* isn’t worth the money is Fire-grilled salmon, but mostly everything is good. Thank you for serving the community for such a long time!

Came here because we live close by, love Thai food, and were excited about all of the great reviews. I don’t know that it lived up to the hype… maybe we just caught them at a bad time?

Thai Basil has been the most consistently good restaurant in the Treasure Valley, in our experience. The food is always fresh and delicious. Dishes don’t change based on who is cooking, it’s always the same and always very good. Service is quick, friendly, and personable. Expect a small wait for dinner on Friday and Saturday. It’s worth it!
