This place is beautiful. Food here is great and service is very good. Thai wings are my favorite here. Pad Thai was delicious portion sizes were more than enough. The owner is very friendly and social. I highly recommend this place. 10/10

The food was very authentic. One of the best Thai food we’ve had in so many places. Food was very fresh and tasty. Would have loved to try more on our short trip to Ithaca.

The people and food here were so good! They were super flexible, bathrooms were super clean, the restaurant was spacious as well. Ordered 4 dishes and the pricing was mediocre — the best part was the thai tea. it was delicious and everything was so fresh and flavorful! Would definitely come back again if I wasn’t on vacation.

Cute little Thail restaurant in Ithaca, nice decorated clean place. Food is little sweeter than what I used to, but others may like it that way.

Probably the least authentic Thai food I’ve ever had. Normally I wouldn’t hold that against an ethnic restaurant except that “authentic” is in their name… The laarb was plain and maybe a level 0.5 spicy. Where was the cilantro? Where are the crushed chili peppers and crushed rice? The pad see ew was caramelly? with super thick grilled flavor. Few greens on it. And the chicken noodle soup was something a 10 year old would have made for his sick mom with no flavors or spice. This seems like a great place for my picky aunt who hates spice and flavors. Otherwise I can’t recommend it. Plus one star for the nice decoration.

Ordered Chicken green curry and asked for it to be spicy . It came out looking pale yellow with zero flavours . Completely bland .probably the worst Thai we ever tried ..

So I’ll keep it real! I love the fish sauce here! They are verrrry stingy about giving it out though! Even lied and said she didn’t have any cups to put it in and can she just put it on my food…on a to go order ‍♂️But It’s my absolute favorite.!! The wonton soup is off the chain! What you see in the picture is the $15 shrimp pad tai that was supposed to have no nuts(FULL OF NUTS thank god I’m not allergic!) and 3 SHRIMP!!! Not four, cause I dug around…just 3! In all these noodles. I won’t be back mainly because the lady in the shiny dress(I assume the owner) always makes me feel like I’m not wanted there. Also because I paid $15 for 3 shrimp This wasn’t the first time but it will be the last!

We’ve been to some amazing Thai restaurants in NYC and Thai Basil is up there with the best of them. The food was very flavorful and spicy (but not overwhelmingly so), and they had a few surprising additions on the menu that I haven’t seen before – like their house special Khao Soy (in the picture). Definitely will be coming back here when we visit next time.
