Thai Basil Restaurant

We ordered take away last night and it was absolutely fantastic! Very quick and really tasty. Obviously we didn't eat in at the restaurant but I'd have no hesitation to go back. We're vegetarian so occasionally that can go against us, but absolutely not in the case of Thai Basil... Thanks very much, we'll do that again.

We visited Thai Basil this Monday for dinner, I can confidently say Thai Basil serves the most authentic Thai dishes I've ever had in the UK! If you're familiar with Thai food, by simply looking at the menu, you'll know right away how authentically and seriously Thai Basil takes about their food. For most Thai restaurants (even those in Asia), the only soup they could possibly serve is Tom Yam Goong, but at Thai Basil, there're as many as five soups you can choose from. We picked Tom Kha Gai, just one sip, the soup brought me back to Ching Mai - the scent of coconut milk and the sourness lime leaves simply complemented one another and brought the Thai-ness of the soup. We don't usually have rice for dinner as we're very mindful about how much carbs we take in and how much time we allow to burn it out. But we decided to let it all out with the Gang Phed (red curry with chicken) as it would be a disrespect to the delicious curry if we didn't have it with rice, and we ended up having two big bowls of Jasmine rice. It's all worth you additional hours at the gym! The green papaya salad was amazing! With all the imported ingredients, you know they don't compromise their authenticity for convenience. We were totally satisfied and didn't have room for dessert, but we couldn't resist to get the mango sticky rice as a takeaway - without a doubt, it was just 100% Thai. The decoration of the restaurant made you feel as if you were really in Thailand. I can feel how much heart they have put to this. I highly recommend this to anyone who craves for authentic delicious Thai food. I didn't try all the Thai restaurants in Bath, but I can confidently say Bath will be a paradise if there's any Thai restaurant that make Thai food even better than Thai Basil.

Came here for a quick lunch and definitely coming back again for dinner. They have a set menu which really was fantastic. There is a wide selection of starters and mains and it was all really authentic. Portions are very generous and it was cooked to perfection by chef Jon Boy and served with a smile by server Mi. Furniture and decor is original Thai and they have created a real family atmosphere here.
