I have been going to this restaurant for the the last 30years plus and never had a bad meal so hearing that it was closing down was a great shock. We wish yourself husband and son all the very best for the future. Give your son our regards with university. Lynda & John xxx
Lovely Chef! I tasted 4 drunken noodles from different Thai Restaurants. In my own opinion, they have the best drunken noodle so far. Thank you so much for the lovely food! My friend and I enjoyed it a lot. Kapunkap!
Great food, great service. Everything we ordered was super delicious. I would recommend it to my other friends and definitely come back for more. The only downside is they don't have a dedicated parking space and quite hard to enjoy your meal and not knowing if you would receive parking tickets in the mail later. Dominion Rd parking enforcers should give consideration to people supporting businesses around the area. Thanks for the wonderful Thai food experience anyways, Basil Thai. Keep it up!
I just finished going up mount Eden and was hungry. Found this place nearby. It's a fairly small place. Seats about 25. Nice, subtle decor. Got the steamed duck #38, with coconut rice. I was hoping for thai tea but they had run out. It took about a half hour to be served. I'm going to assume it was made to order, it was that good. Nicely presented in a shaped dish. I recommend Basil Thai, make reservations!
Wonderful food and the staff were great. They made some adjustments for food sensitivities which I greatly appreciated. I was bummed that my travel schedule didn't allow for a return visit because I would've happily gone back for another dinner!
Delicious thai food served by a lovely family. Very busy football night - dinner was excellent and all done in time for the game!
Basil Thai Restaurant's Green Curry is very good. Before we get into why, let's talk about Thai Green Curry in Auckland: why do so many Thai Green Curries taste EXACTLY the same? And not good the same, boring the same. And why are they always stacked with bamboo shoot after bamboo shoot then a measly chunk of broccoli stalk? Very annoying. But Basil Thai? No no no. Basil Thai doesn’t do boring bamboo only plain green curry. They stand proudly above the plebeians. Clearly they graduated with first class curry honours. Precisely how? We couldn’t tell you - we may be high level Google Reviewers but we’re not professional curry critics. But what we can tell you… is that Basil Thai’s Thai Green Curry is better than most Thai Green Curries. It’s more… dynamic. Is it the type of green chili they use, or perhaps the way they crush their white peppercorns… maybe it’s the coriander seeds, cilantro roots? We don’t know but whatever they’re doing it’s very good. Is it cumin?? Chili oil?? Is it coconut tears instead of coconut milk? Who knows. Who cares. Yum. So yes. We loved the flavour. PLUS - an actual good range of vegetables. And a silky cream texture with a good touch of an oily finish. - Special mention to the amount of satay sauce added to the chicken satay. Take note everyone else - it’s not called chicken SATAY for nothing. Well done Thai Basil. Now we know where to get our Green Curry.
Although this community restaurant is relatively small, it certainly made up for that in quality. The food selection was very good as were the flavours and presentation. The prices were mid range at an average of $34 pp for our table of six. Thai is my personal favourite cuisine and Basil Thai did not disappoint. The only slight difficulty was finding a park in what is a busy restaurant precinct but once that was sorted it was a most enjoyable evening.
Delicious food & reasonably priced,very friendly customer service.small restaurant but very busy.
