Basil Thai Bistro, San Diego CA

Waiting for my takeout they told me would take 25 minutes. Ready in 15. Food was hot and good. Thanks.

Not thai food. Nothing fresh. No basil. Soggy noodle. Watery broth soup. Even the Thai coffee tasted like instant coffee (how can you do that to such a good drink?) Feeling sick from the food. Don't go here. Very expensive for what food they give.

Terrible beef pad Thai, meat looks pale, tastes dry and exactly like chicken, I can’t believe I paid extra ($10.95) for this, and it’s dry. When I complained about it they just offered to remake it, poor customer service. Ordered yellow curry ($12.95), very small serving of rice, potatoes tasted raw, carton of curry 3/4 full. I worked in the restaurant business as a server for years and this is not how I’d handle a complaint, I would offer a different dish, different protein, or complimentary item. Go to Tamarind Thai or Bamboo Thai in La Mesa instead of this place.

Pleasant atmosphere, reasonably priced, tasty food, and pleasant staff. We always have the fried spring rolls no matter what else we order. Tonight we had the sweet and sour chicken.

I ordered the what would be drunken noodles. Wide flat noodles with basil ect. They charge no matter what for any neat or vegetarian. I ordered vegetarian& called to say no carrots no celery and had to pay for 3 pieces of broccoli.yep. I called them.then it didn't have basil or peppers.which are just part of the recipe period. Will never order from them again because I called ahead of time gave them verbal order, di doordash, which doesn't refund you the whole amount at all that's illegal. Go to Bahn Thai. For great Thao food best drunken noodle ever hands down.

Welcome to Thailand! Loved the food! Kau pad moo (Thai fried rice with pork) was absolutely perfect. Chai yen (Thai tea) on point. My waitress Faith was very attentive and helpful. She checked on me at the right times and made sure everything was going well. This place rocks! I almost forgot I wasn't in Bangkok. Definitely worth a visit.

Authentic recipes, great pricing, excellent service, what more could you ask for? They have an awesome lunch menu. I highly recommend you get the soup or salad and for your entree you can choose vegetarian, chicken, beef, pork, seafood Etc and the prices are excellent such a great value.

Best spring rolls we've ever had. We went with shrimp fried rice, pong yang curry, and pad thai. All were excellent!

This is a good restaurant. I live close to it and order there every once in a while. They are quick with getting the order out and the food is good. It's a decent place to eat at, as well.

I ordered cream cheese wontons, satay chicken and house salad. The service is great, the food is better. Wontons were crispy. Vegetables were fresh. Chicken was tender, the sauces delightful.

Basil Thai is my go-to for delivery. (Usually doordash) They are super fast, the food is always delicious and hot, and packaged well. I order every few weeks and it is consistently good. I'm a big fan of the red curry with extra chicken and also the satays or dumplings. The cost is fair even with delivery service charges. A+

Ordered take out.for dinner. The Thai chicken was dry, the calimari in the Pad Thai had an awful smell and the the PadThai was bland. The Tom Yum was a clear broth with some vegetables and a freshly quartered tomato, all of which needed at least another 30 minutes on the stove. I'm thinking maybe their regular cook was out sick and they got the eyebrow lady from the shop next door to cook in his absence. I just can't imagine that they could stay in business if this is what they serve every day.

I ordered Pad see ew, cheese wontons and vegetable spring rolls. The food was delicious and the waitresses were super friendly. For dessert, I got the mango with sweet rice and that was perfection as well. I highly recommend this place and will def be going back next week!

I ordered the shrimp and calamari pad thai and the chicken Panang curry. I was really excited for this but honestly the pad Thai was really bland, the calamari tasted nasty and the shrimp tasted like it had been wayyy over cooked. I had a few bites and threw the pad Thai out. The panang curry was ok.

We have been going here for years. Always friendly and clean. The food is made fresh to order. With delicious flavoring. I'm glad they have been able to stay open during this difficult time. But, when you are kind and great to the community. You can definitely count on the support. The curry is definitely a top item. They make every flavor pop out.

Favorite place to eat at. I love the sweet and sour chicken it is a must have for me. And the Thai fried rice is so good.

The people at this Restaurant ARE VERY VERY KIND AND VERY VERY LOVING PEOPLE! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE! I was working nearby on a hot day. They came to me and gave me a free lemonaide to drink. THEY ARE VERY NICE PEOPLE!

I ordered pad see ew with shrimp & it was amazing! Just needs more veggies & shrimp.

The food here is delicious, especially the curry! It's packed full of authentic flavor. I am so glad this place is still in business and made it through the pandemic. They do everything with care and great service.

They screwed up our order and the food was very bland other than the calamari. Disappointing for the money.
