I was very disappointed in our dinner here. The calamari was overcooked and the shrimp rolls were just shrimp wrapped in wonton skins and fried.

I want to start off with sayin g what a kid friendly restaurant this is. They had paper and crayons for my daughter, her own plastic plate and silverware, a potty seat in the bathroom, hand soap for kids, and a sink she could actually reach! Not to mention the best kids menu I’ve ever seen. I got the steak salad and it was sweet and vinegary and just so fresh tasting. My husband got grilled pork with pineapple and it was fantastic. It’s a beautiful space with an ample outdoor dining area so my toddler could walk around. I highly recommend coming here.

Put your Wonder bread down, old white folks! Sweet Basil brings you a taste of the Far East (as in Albany). Don’t worry, there’s no spice here whatsoever! No chillies allowed! Bring your pale whitest of British pallets here – they’ll love it too!

Just gonna keep it straight up and share that there is very little flavor in the dish I am eating. There’s absolutely no spice and again very little favor in my noodle dish. If you want thai food don’t go here. Portion size is mediocre and prices are as high as it gets.

Delicious soup, salad, rice, egg roll, and main entree for their lunch special with plenty of vegetarian options. Everything was flavorful and the lychee iced tea was sweet enough to be dessert. Luckily they had an outdoor dining option as well!

Recommended by friends who live a few blocks away. My first visit in many years. Thai iced tea and thom yum goong soup were excellent and ample Ordered chef’s special kow soi nuer, braised beef in yellow coconut curry over rice? noodles. Beef and curry were excellent. Noodles were pasty goo even though curry sauce was served separately in a pitcher. I didn’t eat the noodles. Server asked why I didn’t finish the dish and I explained about the goopy noodles. I could have complained when I was first served but I am unfamiliar with this dish and assumed noodles were supposed to be gooey. I will go back but won’t order that dish again.

The food was passably alright, but the pricing and value is really, really, REALLY bad. Rice wasn’t included with the curry, the summer rolls were double the price of nearby similar restaurants with half the portion, no utensils or napkins. This is the kind of food that would be an excellent value if it was a quarter of the price, but we paid nearly ~$40 (including delivery, but still) for panang curry and less spring rolls than is available at convenience stores.
