Basil Thai Restaurant & Bar

A very disappointing experience. The pad Thai was excessively sweet and it smelled not of fish but pork. There was no sour or spice to it. I sent it back asking for a vegetable curry coconut. Again only sweetness, no other flavor. The Thai cafe was also incredibly sweet and the coffee was very light. They had me pay for the returned Pad Thai. Both the cook and the owner shall know better. To avoid!

The food here is hit or miss. Overall it's better than most places. That being said they need to remove the fried rice from the menu as it isn't fried at all. It's basically just white rice warmed and tossed. Uncle Roger would roast this place over the unfried rice. Maybe that's a better name for theirs, unfried rice. Food : 3/5 | Service : 4/5 | Atmosphere : 5/5 … More

An exceptional Thai dining experience in San Francisco! This restaurant offers the convenience of reservations, ensuring prompt seating upon arrival. While metered street parking might be challenging during peak hours, visiting during the evening proved hassle-free, with complimentary parking available. Upon entering, the restaurant had a few vacant tables, yet the ambiance remained vibrant and inviting. Our meal consisted of the following dishes: Pad Se-Ew - A personal favorite, the Pad Se-Ew here was truly outstanding! Bursting with flavor, it struck the perfect balance without being overly salty. I opted for pork, but any protein would pair well with this classic dish. Gaeng Gari - A must-have for me at any Thai eatery, their yellow curry was utterly delectable! Served with half a chicken, some bones may be present, so exercise caution while savoring the dish. I wholeheartedly recommend this establishment and eagerly anticipate my return!
