Oh come on. This was one of my goto places for Singapore vermicelli cuz it's my favorite. I went on Sunday and got platter of weirdly flavored spaghetti? Seriously? Had no curry flavor and the reheated wheat noodles were a weird texture. I won't be back and unfortunately I recommend you look elsewhere. If a place will sub out rice vermicelli with spaghetti? They've lost the plot. I'm so disappointed. There's enough other places around. Don't bother here.
Absolutely YES and come taste the amazing cuisine of Basil Thai! Came across an Instagram post and wanted to give it a try! We were greeted immediately when we entered, seated in a booth, and advised to access the menu thru the posted QR code. My friend ordered the custom dry pot that had noodles, definitely has some spicy kick, but very flavorful! I ordered the custom hot pot w/ all the meat and seafood options, onion, bean sprouts, broccoli, mushrooms, with mild spice. The broth is very flavorful. We made our own entree by taking some of the dry pot and spoon the chicken broth and veggies atop, squeeze a lil lime juice and OMG it's a flavorful masterpiece! The only reason I didn't give Basil Thai 5 stars was because I thought the digital menu via the QR code was a little difficult to use and there are limited substitutions so definitely make sure you understand the spice levels.
I was recommended this place from a friend, so I had to try when I'm in Austin. When we got there it was empty, which was a surprise because we came in during lunch time on a weekend. This made me question whether it was actually good or not. Me and my boyfriend did the create your own hot pot. I got the thai yellow curry with beef & he got the combo tom yum. The both of the broths were really good. The thai yellow curry was rich & creamy. The tom yum was sweet. Both of the hot pot had plenty of meats & veggies. It was a good portion for the both of us & wouldn't recommend sharing. To place an order, you just scan the QR. We were able to get our food fairly quickly. Overall, it was good & I would most likely come back when I am in Austin.
AUSTIN RESTAURANT WEEK #2 A pleasant find in the HEB shopping at Parmer and Mopac...this little gem was a hidden surprise. We might not have heard about Basil Thai had it not been for restaurant week. For $25 you received soup and fried chicken for 2-3 people. After eating my soup, I did not have much room for fried chicken. The soup was nicely prepared with perfectly cooked vegetables...just a little more than al dente but not super soft. We had enough leftovers for another meal. The soup was so flavorful and steaming hot, which came out on a square wood stand with a hibachi type top. You could literally see the fire underneath the metal bowl. My hubby, who is a meat and potatoes guy, loved the soup and the fried chicken. The white meat fried chicken was in nugget size servings with a superbly flavored crust. The manager served us with ourfood coming pretty quickly. Basil Thai had a large number to go orders with two Uber drivers picking up large orders. The environment in the restaurant was pretty laid back. Thumbs up on this restaurant...
I was really drawn to the concept and was super excited to try this place. However, I was a bit disappointed :( I ordered the spicy dry pot that had all the toppings chosen for you. You order by scanning a QR code on your phone and the interface was confusing for me. I thought noodles were included, so I ended up having to order some on the side later. The price was lowkey ridiculous, $1.50 for 1/4 of an instant noodle block. The dry pot itself was okay. It was around $20 with just meat and veg and the portion was pretty big, enough to feed two people. The only thing was that it was insanely salty. I brought the leftovers home and diluted it with some chicken broth and it tasted a lot better. The flavor was good and I liked the mala spice. The service was very nice. I would give it another try but maybe order differently. The thai tea however, was really good! It tasted like it was actually brewed and not powder.
Service was not bad. It was really busy when I went but we were able to get a table pretty quickly. We got the family combo meal to split and it was a lot of food. However some of the flavors/spices were kind of off. the dry noodles just felt like when you have random stuff in the fridge and you tossed it together. It had french fries, fish balls and all sorts of random things that didn't taste cohesive at all. However I really really enjoyed the fried rice, it's probably one of the best I've had. Perfectly spicy and fluffy.
We were looking for a Thai place that was somewhat northwest and picked this place. When I walked in, the fabulosa cleaning chemicals were over powering the restaurant to the point it made my nasals hurt, but touched it out since we were a party of 3. No paper menus, had to scan and order but had issues since our order was not submitted, waitstaff ended up placing our order. Prices are steep considering the amount of food you get. The dishes are different than we are accustomed too although the broths were not as heavy and rich which was a plus. I found the food ok, however the drunken noodle was dry, I'm use to it having it slightly saucy. The red curry hot pot was tasty but again, slightly different than what we're used to. The tom yum seafood hotpot was tasty but not what I was expecting and a very small hotpot but luckily we had enough to share. We all drove a minimum of 20 miles to this place and am not sure it's worth the distance driven. We have our favorites that we frequent in our areas. But it was worth a try.
I had seen that Basil Thai was like a personal hotpot place, but I had never gone before because I thought it was like a whole deal and probably expensive, and that I had to save the occasion for something special. But! It's actually so accessible and can pass for any meal. Not that the food isn't special, because it really is good, but that I had overhyped what the experience would be into something overwhelming, when that wasn't the case at all. You can do a build your own, but with all the options on the menu, I just decided to get one of their already curated bowls - the coconut milk (tom kah) with beef. I am guilty of just ordering anything that says it has coconut milk in it. And im often disappointed by not really being able to taste the coconut milk in it. But that wasn't the case here at all. Whenever I'm craving spicy coconut milk type broth, this is exactly what I want! The food comes out pretty quickly, and the servers are pretty friendly! I got the medium level spice for this dish, but I definitely feel like I could have gone for the hotter version. I was kind of scared because I was coming off of recovering from a slight cough, but definitely could have gone spicier. The noodles themselves were okay, it felt like your typical ramen noodles. But all the toppings were good, I loved the broccoli in it too. But I wish there was more beef inside, it didn't feel like it had much meat at all. But yeah the broth really sold it for me. I feel like I could have just drank it all, but I didn't want to be too puffy :(( I wish I packed it and took it home. That being said, the price was pretty reasonable imo.
THE BIG: Basil Thai is nestled in the Market at Parmer Lane strip mall. The windows have ads on it but also acts as a sun protector. Plenty of parking in the outdoor parking lot. THE BLACK AND WHITE: We ordered for pickup on a Friday afternoon and was able to get our order filled fast. The parking lot gets full quick so be aware of that. We ordered the dry pot with beef, curry hotpot with udon, tom yum soup, and lemongrass beef. The flavors were all sorts of funked up but maybe it's because I'm a traditionalist with food. The curry hotpot with udon was such a weird texture and I couldn't tell if i liked it. The best dish was the dry pot with beef in my opinion. Meat was nice and spiced and had a bevy of veggies. THE FINAL BAMBOO: We spent around $60 for 4 dishes, which is an incredible price, however the food fell flat for me and I think the only time I would try this again would be if I go in person and sit down.
First hotpot experience and this place really set the bar high. Was greeted by the sweetest lady as soon as we walked in. She let us know to scan to order and offered to answer any questions we had before submitting our order. Food was out so fast and presentation was mouthwatering. We decided to do the create your own hotpot with the Thai red curry and salt and pepper wings. The Hot pot was amazing. Not too rich and had depths of flavor. Loved being able to create my own unique flavor by being able to select the ingredients. The salt and pepper wings were not as great. The chicken was very salty and lacked flavor. Overall great experience definitely will be back anytime I'm in the ATX area. Loved the staff 10/10!
I love Basil Thai. I hadn't been in a while and I can honestly say I was a tad disappointed. I always used to order the red curry with shrimp. It comes in an oblong bowl and it's soupy. Soooo delicious! Well now they make you order online. I selected red curry. It came out like fried chicken pieces with red curry sauce mixed in! Clearly NOT what I was expecting. They told me the curry I wanted was on the old style booklet menus and not online. Needless to say I got what I wanted however still had to pay for an untouched and unwanted meal. Make sure you understand clearly what you're wanting before ordering.
Basil Thai has little competition in Austin for a la carte hotpot (besides Soupleaf!). Basil Thai offers a variety of Thai and other Asian flavors in their broth, and their curry broth is delicious! I got the yellow curry and it was creamy, a little tart, and went very well with beef that I got. Although they messed up a bit with our orders, we had a big table and I could tell that they were trying to accommodate. Overall, the taste/flavor was there and the owners were really nice! Would recommend. I'd expect to spend at least around $25 a meal here.
Came here again for lunch and this time I tried ordered the customizable dry pot with shrimp, chicken, lamb, and beef. It didn't cost extra to have all of the different proteins which was a nice surprise. This had such an interesting spice! On the menu it said "with numbing" in the name and I wasn't sure what that meant but now I understand that it means that the spice literally has a numbing sensation. It was very tasty! The wings here are actually insane though. So crispy and tender! I would definitely recommend!!

Me and my friend was visiting Austin for 1 night and decided to try Basil Thai. Well no more that i can say, probably one of the worst Thai restaurants i have visited. Food was average (leaning towards bad). We ordered penang curry with noodle hotpot(beef), beef pad thai, lemongrass beef, and pineapple fried rice. I really have no words, food is bad, pad thai were so bad even the instant pad thai is better lol, could barely see the beef. Same with the lemongrass beef, even though it was recommended on the menu list, it was bad, cant taste nothing only spicy and 80% of the dish was vegetables, i could even count with 2 hands how many pieces of beef they gave. Penang curry was ok, still edible. Pineapple fried rice i can make better at home. Price was not it, definitely not worth it. Place and service was ok. Would not recommend anyone to come here, better save your money and spend it elsewhere! Food 4/10 Price 3/10 Place 7/10 Service 7/10 read more
Went during a busy Sunday night ): only one person was running the floor for a while before someone else from the kitchen came to help, definitely understaffed but they're too sweet for me to complain so I recommend going on a weekday The food was great and portions are huge, I'd recommend sharing one with combination meats between two people or get your own if you're starving (we waited for awhile so yes we were starving) I got the Szechuan broth (spicy) and we also got lemongrass Tom yum (tangy seafood). Both were delicious, the Szechuan did sit a little heavy on my stomach afterwards because it gradually got more oily but we still enjoyed both pots I wish the Tom yum came with noodles but it didn't so do note to ask for some or order ur custom one with the Tom yum soup Overall, pretty good, authentic Asian setting, sweet staff, worth a try if you're in town or from the area @tien.eats on insta for more content (: read more
This place seems exciting to me since they offer individual hot pots! I ordered chicken wings as an appetizer and it exceeded my expectations. Chicken wings came out hot, fresh and juicy. A bit tad too salty. But soft on the inside and crunchy on the outside. The dipping sauce is tangy and good but honestly didn't really need it because the wings itself are salty and tasty enough. After the appetizer came the main event, which is the hotpot! I ordered the lemongrass soup base, with Alaska Wild Salmon with various additions: This salmon was so bad that I'm a bit offended after the first bite. I took it out of the pot and it's very hard, as if it's still frozen. The poor filet is obviously cooked but it's very very dry, hard and tough to chew or swallow. It's so hard that you can't break a piece off with your fork or chopstick unless you actually chew it off! Some of the sides I ordered to accompany the soup is not fresh at all. The fish balls are chewy and bland and wood ear mushrooms too soft and whittled. The ramen is very mushy and overcooked as well. I also got a bowl of rice and immediately recognize it to be the low quality kind you find at a cheap chinese restaurant. The only good parts of this dish is the lemongrass flavor of the soup and the qual eggs. Very few times in my life have I wanted to just pay and not even eat any of it, but I continued poking around the soup and ate the vegetables because I didn't want to waste food. After paying my bill, I looked up Yelp for something else to eat and erase my poor experience here. This establishment is Chinese owned, so if you are an experienced Thai foodie looking for authentic thai, you'll need to lower your expectations when you come here. I have not tried any of the other of the common Thai dishes like pad thai or pad see ew nor will I come back to try. read more
We went for lunch right when the restaurants open at noon and it got full fast. There's a QR code at the table that you can scan with your phone to see the menu and order. We decided to create our own hotpot and were surprise that we got to choose as many as 8 ingredients all included in the price of the hot pot! There is an additional fee for any ingredients beyond the first 8. Everything was so delicious, they gave a great quantity of each ingredient, it was definitely worth the price! This is the spot on a cold winters day, take your friends and family! read more

My stepsons are in town from Louisiana this weekend to avoid Hurricane Delta, so we decided that hot pot would be just the ticket, and Basil Thai did not disappoint! It's not the type of hardcore legit shared hot pot restaurants that you might find in Houston, where many of the living creatures come to the table to be promptly boiled alive (which sounds absolutely horrifying when written here, but is actually pretty delicious!), but it was definitely awesome in its own right! I won't go into super-detail about the individual hot pot ordering system, since plenty of fine writers have already explained it here, but I will say that, if you're into either Thai or traditional hot pot flavors, you'll find plenty to like! We started with the pork egg rolls , and they were crunchy yummy goodness! We each had one from the 4 piece order, and I would have happily Bogarted the other three, but I played nice. For our dinner, my more squeamish stepson went with the Pad Thai, and he declared it "solid"! The portion was HUGE! The hubby, the other stepson, and I went individual hot pot all day long! We had red curry broth with combo meat/seafood, yellow curry broth with beef, and miso broth with shrimp, all with assorted accoutrement, and it was ALL good! The miso was my choice, and it's a good one, if you're going for more of the traditional hot pot experience, but I was most a fan of my husband's yellow curry, while he was most a fan of my stepson's red curry, and my stepson was most a fan of my miso, so it was a circular Gift of the Magi, but you really can't go wrong with any of it! Pro Tip: Be sure to add the "instant ramen noodles" to your hot pot order, if you survived on those bricks of ramen in college! The look and texture will take you straight back there, in a deliciously refined way! Pro Tip 2: Don't try to eat your meal right out of the pot like we did, unless you're prepared to scald your taste buds off! It's en fuego, literally! Ladle it into the accompanying bowl! All in all, there's not a dang thing that we didn't like about Basil Thai, and we'll be return customers for sure! read more
The food here ... indescribably amazing! I love how you can customize your own hotpot and the options are endless, sad that you can only choose 8 toppings :(. My favorite curry base is the green curry one because it has just enough spice! I would recommend the massaman curry base too. For toppings I highly recommend the wood ear mushrooms, enoki mushrooms, fish balls and potatoes! Personally I like the udon noodles more, but getting the ramen noodles is more worth your money. This restaurant's soup feels like a warm hug on a cold day. My only complaint is how pricey one pot is, it is enough for 2 meals but still a bit on the high end, so definitely not an everyday meal. read more

This place and service was really nice. If you are stopping by, the chicken wings are a must try. The yellow curry noodles were good but I wish that I got one level up on spice, I ordered 3/5 spicy. I wasn't very impressed with the hot pot but I could have probably ordered better. read more
Came here over a Saturday lunch while running errands. Easy to get to from Half Price or HEB or Mopac. Quiet, dim, and unassuming place - prolly driven by 20 times and didn't notice. Very clean and spacious inside. Host/server was super friendly, and took the order rapidly: tofu pad thai, tofu yellow curry, spring rolls. It came out just as rapidly and in huge portions. I didn't think I could eat that much. It wasn't spicy without added sriracha but very flavorful. Lovely presentation. Ate every bite and loved it. Adding to my goto list. read more

Every time we want to eat out we come to this place but today it was very disappointing. I got veggie spring rolls and literally we paid almost $15 for rice paper and lettuce. It was supposed to have noodles and tofu.., and it was very empty. We are not coming back. I get it people are trying to save as much money as possible but this is how you lose business. read more

Thanks for your kind words! We’re so happy to hear we’ve never let…
For me, Thai food is considered Comfort food for me, so I was happy to try another Thai restaurant to see how they fare. With this Thai restaurant being so close to work, it was easy to go there when I got called back in for work. My signature disc is the woon sen, and I was pleasantly surprised with their rendition. Need to go container refilled with glass noodles toss with egg onion sprouts chicken. Unlike other wound sins, it wasn't over filled with vegetables but still quite tasty. My current favorite has the perfect flavor profile with vegetables; however, this version reminds me of the first time I had one soon which was loaded with egg rice noodles and chicken. Finally, I should have eaten here much sooner because the food and customer service are great. If you are close to North Parmer and in need of Thai food, you should give them a try read more
Came for lunch on a Saturday afternoon and found the place to be pretty quiet. Definitely not a high traffic area so I wouldn't worry much about having a wait. This is another spot I'd add to the shockingly long list of "dingy looking restaraunts in dingy looking strip malls that have surprisingly good Asian food in North Austin". This was my first experience going for hot pot in this area and was overall pretty happy with it. Their menu is super customizable, the individual hot pot is a la carte for a reasonable flat price given the portion size. While their menu does have more of an emphasis on Thai options, they have a wide array of flavors from other Asian cuisines. If you have a friend who's a little hesitant to venture out and try Asian cuisine I think this is a great introduction. Both my dish (Szechuan hot pot) and my friend's (Thai Yellow Curry) were pretty mild flavors compared to what we've had elsewhere, but still quite tasty. Also being able to pick every item in the hotpot allows them to steer clear of any ingredients they're less familiar/comfortable with. read more
Basil Thai is definitely one of my favorite go to places when the weather is chilly and cold. I can't really comment on their other menu items, the wife and I simply order the custom hot pot. One of my favorites has to be the Seafood Tom Kha. I usually add in udon or ramen noodles, spam, fish balls and plenty of veggies. There are so many different things that you can add, the options are endless. The Tom Kha definitely has a lot of flavor. The seafood might not be the freshest, but you are paying about $16 for a huge portion. The wife and I always have plenty to take back with us. Subtracting a star because the service is very hit or miss. They were attentive to us this most recent time but they also had a lot of tables that had not been cleared off. They are pretty understaffed so just be patient. Basil Thai always hits the spot no matter what mood I am in. I am excited to try the other options and broths that they have. read more

I’m really sorry you had that experience — that’s definitely not what…
I was a little skeptical when I saw mixed reviews about the place, but ended up trying it out with my friends anyways. We came in on a Monday evening at 6:30 pm , and had a group of 7 people. We got a table right away, and the place was already filling up fast. The owner gave each one of us the menu, and a piece of paper to mark down what we wanted to select for our customized hot pot. I chose my base: beef with kimchi broth and added in lots of veggies, quail eggs, and ramen with it. The food came out fairly quick, and the hot pot size was perfect for me. I am not sure what the pot was on, because it wasn't an electric stove, but it did a good job with heating the soup up after a bit and would burn out after awhile on its own without us having to adjust it. The soup itself was good, it wasn't too flavorful as I would have liked it but it wasn't bland either! The only thing I wished they had was dipping sauce to dip the meat and veggies in, but other than that it was really decent. The experience was also fun for all of us too! Customer service was a bit slow because it was just the couple running it, but nonetheless we were happy to support a local restaurant- mom pop shop. The place is casual, and we saw it as a place for when you are craving for decent hot pot, no frills and affordable place to be. I would love to come back and try out the Szechuan flavor hot pot! read more
I came here once last year when all of my friends were posting the individual hot pot on their Instagram stories, and it looked delicious. I don't really remember much from the trip, but I just remember ordering a broth that I wasn't in love with. I ended up not eating over half the hot pot. Recently, I came again with a group of friends. They frequent Basil Thai pretty often, so they all recommended the lemongrass broth to me. I definitely enjoyed my second time here a lot more. I ordered corn, basil, fish tofu, beef meatballs, quail eggs, ramen noodles, and a couple of other ingredients that I can't remember. The lemongrass broth is really good. I'm not typically a fan of sour broths, but it's probably their best (I tried the other broths from my friends' hot pots). I also like their Mala spicy broth, but it's a bit too spicy for me to order on my own. The price is pretty expensive for hot pot. Each individual hot post probably costs them about $2 to make, but they uncharge up to $14. I think you are better off making your own hot pot at home because all of the ingredients are incredibly cheap. However, if you're lazy and don't have the means to make your own at home, Basil Thai is a great option. I'm not in love with the price and it's not somewhere I can go often, but it's great for a cold day. read more

Delicious hot pot. It's not a typical style in that it comes already in the pot and cooked but they are very customizable and delicious. I went with the yellow curry. My fiancé tried the red curry. We tried a cup of the thom ka. Probably wouldn't order that again but our hotspots were wonderful. Perfect for a cold, rainy night. I rarely go North of Airport BLVD so the fact that I went to Parmer shows my dedication to hot pot read more

I had the privilege of trying every hotpot soup base flavor because we went as a group and everyone got something different. Honestly everything slapped, you can't go wrong but the collective rankings turned out to be: 1. Red Curry 2. Green Curry 3. Yellow Curry (which is what I got and was my personal favorite because I can't handle spice, although the other two were not too spicy) 4,5: Lemon grass and miso soup I will be backkkk read more
I got the build-your-own noodle soup, so I chose the ingredients that I thought I would like, but maybe I just don't like this kind of food. The colours look so sickly in the picture. It tasted okay. The restaurant definitely has that family-owned, has never been updated since it opened kind of look. read more

After two visits, I can comfortably say this is the most unimpressive individual hot pot I've ever had. You can make better, more flavorful hot pot at home. FOOD: Ive tried the Sichuan hot pot, green curry hot pot with chicken, and panang curry with lamb. Green curry hot pot with chicken- probably the best of the three, but still not great. Chicken was cut and cooked well, but there was minimal curry flavor. Panang curry hot pot with lamb- base tasted watered down, and the flavor barely seeped into the add ons. The lamb was dry and seemed over cooked. Sichuan hot pot- tasted like they used some average Sichuan hot pot paste from a random Asian grocery Add ons- I normally love fish tofu, but the fish tofu was really rough and chewy. All other add ons were average, you could easily replicate at home with a better hot pot base. Service was efficient and friendly enough, plenty of parking outside. read more
One of my favorite restaurants in Austin- a hidden gem for create-your-own hot pot! You have the choice of selecting the 'main ingredient' and I chose seafood which includes shrimp, mussel, squid, clam. The combo (lamb, beef, seafood) is also so yummy! The hot pot includes your choice of up to 8 veggies. The list of 'veggies' includes noodles like udon or ramen. Next you choose the broth- I really enjoyed both the Szechuan and the lemongrass (Tom yum). The Szechuan can be pretty spicy, it's described as 'numbing' on the menu and it does live up to that. The portion sizes are fairly large, they do not skimp out on the food, I usually have extra to take home. It's so flavorful and loved the presentation as well. Unfortunately, I can't speak to any other menu items since I can't NOT order the hot pot when I come here- SO GOOD! read more

I am literally such a simp for hot pot and when I saw photos of the ones from Basil Thai, it's been on my radar every since. It was a really chilly night so I decided to pop by the other day and I was honestly very satisfied. My cousin and I ordered a individual hot pot where we built our own. The process was pretty much like a Chipotle/WhichWich order where we just marked what we wanted. Our hotpot for $15. - Protein: Beef - Base: Szechuan Regular (which I highly recommend if you spicy food, Szechuan spice has this really mild numbing effect. The spice builds up as you eat and it definitely warms your body up) - Veggies: Cabbage, Enoki Mushrooms, Fish Balls, Bean Sprouts, Imitation Crab, Ramen, Spam, and Cloud Ear Mushrooms. For the price, the pot was a bit smaller than I had expected. It's definitely enough food for one person though. I thought that portions were pretty good, it's like one or two bunches of each of the select items that you picked. The flavor was really really good! I was super happy with the Szechuan flavor. The food was also warm throughout as they utilize one of those mini portable stoves. The interior kinda of reminds of a buffet and it doesn't really fit the food that they're selling. But customer service was really great, the staff is super friendly. Overall, I was very happy with what I got. I honestly would only come to split with a friend as the hot pot vibes are very nice. I'll probably come back to try their dry hot pots in the future. read more

This place used to be a crawfish/seafood restaurant but turned over to thai and I think it turned out for the better. It's a mom and pop restaurant so low music, tv in the background, not much thai decoration, seemed a bit too plain. Ordered chicken satay, love the crispy texture and it comes with a semi orange looking sauce with peanut sauce to dip and a side of vinegar sauce. Very good, awesome flavors, 5/5. I ordered thai pat combo with shrimp, chicken, beef, and I asked for low oil. Very tasty pat thai, Noodles soft, flavors on point, a bit too much salt but it was masked with a bit too much sugar so it was overly seasoned a bit too much. The crushed peanuts and you squeeze lime on top, it's good. 4/5 One of the best parts of the lunch is the individual hotpot. It comes with a bunch of items you can choose from, ramen noodles (I assume are from instant noodle bags), szechuan flavored broth so it's tangy and spicy, seafood bits, and a bowl of rice. I don't think the rice needs to be there, I would replace it a side of dipping sauce like shabu shabu style like a darker soy/hoisin sauce to cut thru the spicy broth. 3.5/5 read more
