The food is fresh and tasteful. The atmosphere is more than just an average Thai restaurant , very nice. The only recommendation. I would have is to have the friendly male servers wear all black and have nicely combed hair. It really takes away from the elegance of the restaurant to have them in jeans and baggy shirts and uncomed hair. They were very nice and friendly but keep the restaurant a step above ! read more

The service was fine. The egg rolls and chicken wings were good . The main dinner dishes were too salty and a couple other orders were inedible to eat. Some of the dishes lacked flavor and didn't taste how it should be made. read more

I don't have a picture to add because I finished the delicious food before I realized I wanted to leave a review. I got the lunch special, which included a really good cream cheese puff. Then the entree was pad thai chicken and it was really good. I ordered it medium spicy, and I know spices subjective, but I personally could've taken it a little spicier. But still, it was delicious and I will be back. We had a really nice young man (I'm sorry I didn't get his name) serving us and he was attentive, very nice, and the food came out quickly. So glad I found this place and I'm looking forward to returning. read more

Thai Basil is hands down one of the best Thai restaurants in town. From the food to the service, you will not be disappointed. I have been coming here for years with my Grandma. My Grandma is a very specific eater and Thai Basil always accommodates her needs. Lisa always takes great care of my Grandma and will never forget how my Grandma likes her food prepared. I stopped in for to go lunch today. I got the pad Thai with tofu and Grandma's special. My lunch was fabulous as always! So flavorful and tasty. Grandma's ate a lot of her meal and will have some for later. We finished off our lunch with purple sticky rice with mango. It's such a simple dessert but so good! Everything is so good here! Yellow curry, pad see ew, rad na...... I can go on and on. If you're looking for a good Thai joint in the Meridian area, Thai Basil is your spot to hit up. read more

We started with the shrimp summer rolls as an appetizer. Delicious. We ordered the duck curry, Mongolian beef and the house seafood special. Again all delicious. The ambience is quiet and the service was very good. Definitely coming back read more

The ambiance is great. The fresh salad rolls are on par, but instead of the chili sauce needs to be served with peanut sauce. Ask and they will sub it out. The shrimp dish only had 8 small shrimp. The service was slow and seemed overwhelmed and unorganized. Will comeback and try again. read more

Excellent food! My favorite go to for Thai food. Had lettuce wraps and Tom Kha Gai soup take out tonight. YUM!!

Worst Thai food of my life, and Thai is my favorite. Do not be fooled, they are making food for the wonder bread, Crowd. Absolutely no flavor and no spice. I ordered pad kee mow, drunken noodles, which by definition are very spicy and that is why people eat them as a hangover cure. What I received is boiled chicken with boiled noodles and a few pieces of green onion. Absolutely no flavor and no spice. If they intention is to feed the white Wonderbread Crowd with no flavor then they should say that upfront. They should say we do not serve traditional Thai food. If you have the option to give it flavor or spice, then they should ask you when you are ordering. This food is absolutely bland. Probably would've had more flavor from some prepackaged frozen Thai meal from Walmart. If you are new to eating Thai food, do not believe that if you go here that this is what real Thai food is like. Total waste of money There really isn't anything good I can say about this place, which is unusual. read more

Well the shrimp "summer rolls" are SO GOOD that we forgot to get a pic but trust me, you want them. So fresh and delicious. We bring our kiddo here every couple months and it never disappoints! Red curry is delicious, I get either chicken or tofu. The kids menu chicken pad Thai is a decent portion also. If you like spicy, the chili oil that they make is super good! Service is great also, they pretty much know our order by now and have good suggestions if we ever want to switch it up. read more

Came here with a party of 3 for dinner on a Sunday evening and this place was pretty packed! Luckily, we didn't have a hard time finding parking and we only waited about 5-10 minutes to be seated. The service was quick and friendly! I ordered the chicken pad Thai with medium spice. For a frame of reference, my upper limit is hot Cheetos and the medium spice here definitely was skirting on that edge, but I could've handle more spice. The pad Thai itself was great! It was a perfect portion in my opinion. Definitely recommend if you're in the area! read more

This is my go-to Thai spot, and it never disappoints! Everything I've tried has been absolutely delicious. I have to give a special shoutout to the mango sticky rice--it's hands-down the best I've ever had. My personal favorite is the green curry with chicken, and the Tom Kha Gai is absolutely amazing. The restaurant itself is a cozy, dimly lit space that's perfect for a relaxed meal, but we also love getting takeout. It's always steaming hot when we pick it up, and I really appreciate that it's still perfectly warm by the time I get home. read more

Found this little gem of a place on a moments notice. Fortunately I missed the mad rush for lunch so the service was great and food came out fast. Started with the Tom Yum soup with shrimp. It was perfect. Then I had the green curry with shrimp. The serving of Jasmine rice was about the size of a softball! Very generous! The curry was nice and creamy and not too spicy. They did it right and the mix of veggies in it was great. Not overloaded with bamboo (thank God). Anyhow, the food was amazing and service was great. Would totally go back again. Ignore the warning in possible slow service they have when you walk in. They pulled it off today! read more

We were seated quickly at 5:30 on a Friday night. Nice Thai style decor and lighting. That is the best part about this place. Only half full at this hour we waited at our table for a server for quite some time. About 5:45 a server came over and took our order. We ordered an appetizer of lettuce wraps, 2 water, saki, and 3 entrees with a 2* spice. When she left the table my husband said" well she is not in a good mood is she"? To which I replied no she definitely is not, I hope the rest of the night is not like this. Well, it was. After walking away we did not see her again. About 15 minutes passed without getting our drinks. Another table next to us sat down about and had their drinks almost immediately with another server. I asked that server if he would have our server bring our drinks. He went and got our drinks for us and apologized. Another guy brought our sorry looking lettuce wraps a few minutes later. As seen in the picture there is no way to wrap anything. This was served with a 4"x4" triangle chunk of iceberg lettuce, mostly which was yellow. Not a good start with the food. At 6:25 our entrees finally came by way of another person who set them on the table and started to walk away. We called back after him as we had no plates, napkins or serving utensils. He apologized and went to get them for us. The veggie stir fry was pretty good and spiced as we like, about a 2*. The Drunken noodles were not fully cooked and had 0 flavor and 0 spice. Had a bit or 2 and left it. Lastly we ordered a Chicken Fried Rice. While it was a good fried rice, there was 0 spice. Our server never came back to check on us, fill our water or take our empty plates. We sat there, never seeing our server again waiting for someone to help. Finally the hostess walked by and I had to ask her to send our server as we had not seen her since she took our order. She went to the kitchen and I saw her talking to the server but she still did not come over. Some else brought our bill. We paid and were leaving when miraculously our server came over and apologized for not being around. That was an understatement. She gave her reason that she was an expeditor not a server and she was busy with to go orders. Well, if you are not a server don't take our order and leave us stranded. Not a good experience and we will go elsewhere in the future. read more

You might wanna skip this place. It's messy inside and my phone order was more than the menu price and looked more like a tiny lunch portion instead of dinner. When I asked the staff person (who said she was a manager) why the order was more than the online menu price, she simply said "oh"... and walked away to get my order. Came back and rang me up for a dollar more, never offering an explanation. It's this simple - if you're going to raise prices, you need to update your online menus. It's not that difficult. Anything else is basically... dishonest. Perhaps the worst part if I could look past the very messy inside of the restaurant, carpet unswept and cardboard boxes and plastic wrap trash sitting in well view of the entry, is the small portion sizes. I was STUNNED at how small my order was for $15 bucks. I've eaten at Thai and Chinese restaurants all over the West & West Coast and rarely have problems, but this is my most disappointing experience yet. The carry-out box was not even half full; a ridiculously small entree for this price. The taste? Nothing special. I can cook beef and soy sauce at home, I'm looking for that special "Thai" taste but didn't find it here. I usually like to give a place more than one chance before leaving a bad review but with this many issues in one visit, there is no reason for me to return. Totally not worth it. read more

The food is not the same since Lisa the server left. Please bring her back! Food tastes bland without her fabulous service.

The food is delicious. You can ask for no spice, you can ask for the spiciest food you've ever eaten. The service is good. The ambiance is chill. Very nice casual dining. read more

Hands down a great place for Thai food. Good prices and friendly staff. If you are wanting some good Thai food this is a place you should check out. Our party of five was definitely impressed with this little spot. Our second visit here and we will be going back. Amazing and delicious waterfall style larb, tender beef and the flavor spot on, then poof this tasty dish disappears fast. The Tom kha soup omg, just try it! Thank you Thai basil. read more

Cute little place with amazing cha gio! It's a must every time we're in Boise. We've tried several of their noodle dishes and they've all been great. Our favorites are pad see ew and drunken noodles. read more

Wouldn't sit the two of us in booth which is what we wanted. Manager man explained booth is saved for larger crowd i.e. 4 or 6 people. Said that makes sense. But then saw a couple get seated in booth twice then 1 person got a booth. Even when I saw tables available. Told him he was inconsistent passed me off. I wanted an apology and it was like dragging it out of a teen. Good food good waitresses but poor and mean management. Probably be a while if I go again if ever. read more

Delicious food, excellent service, pleasant ambiance. My friend and I thoroughly enjoyed our early dinner here.

I loved Thai Basil. The atmosphere is very welcoming and the decorations give it a good vibe. They have a variety of options on their menu. We got the chicken pad Thai as well as the cashew chicken. I asked to add a little spice to the pad Thai. She said she would do a two star. I agreed but assumed it was out of a five star scale. It turns out the spice level is out of 3 stars. It was very spicy. I like spice and it was almost too much for me, I drank at least 3 waters. I would order it again with a lesser spice level! read more

My wife was craving green curry. We saw that this place was near. We did see that they closed lunch service at 2:30. We arrived at 2:02. They had a sign inside that the dining room was closed, they said they stopped serving lunch 20 minutes before they closed. It still was 2:02. She then said "we are closed " Didn't even offer a menu if we wanted to order food to go. We will never try to eat there again! read more

I really liked this place. The food was pretty good. The portions were perfect. I do wish there was a little more attentiveness to us especially since we went there was only a few other people there but other than that it was somewhere I would recommend. read more

Excellent Thai food! I ordered a Pad See Ew, my default Thai dish when I'm too lazy to read a long menu, and it was very good. I also had Tamarind shrimp for appetizer, the sweet savory contrast was just delicious. Service was super friendly, all the ladies there were welcoming and smiling. I definitely want to go back and read the menu this time. read more

Food was great! Nothing wrong with any of it. This place is VERY moderately priced for the way everything seems to be going up in price these days. I can't believe we never went here before! Passed right by all these years. Service was also very good. We were waited on by a gentleman who was very nice, prompt and accommodating. Food came out fairly quickly. There were several family's with kiddos there which is always appreciated when you have kids. It's nice that it's more family friendly! We will DEFINITELY be going back! read more

I ordered takeout. The mushroom vegetable dish was so bad I threw it out. Overcooked and super salty.

Oh heck yeah! We almost didn't come in because the windows were covered in paper. I'm glad we didn't get dissuaded. The service was great, we were seated fast and our order was quickly in the kitchen. The spicy beef was amazing! The heat came on slow and grew as we ate. It was flavorful and fresh! The only disappointment was that the egg roll was a little small (it was so good, I should have ordered two). I can't wait to get back and try more of the menu out! read more

The food was excellent, especially the pad thai, pad see ew, and the mongolian beef. The Thai ice tea however, was so strong that I had it with dinner at 6pm and it kept me awake all night and I could barely get to sleep the next night! This tea is 10x as strong as other restaurants. Do not get this tea unless you want to be awake for 24-48 hours straight! read more

Delicious food as always here. Green curry, seafood, yellow curry were all good. Service was on point and our waitress Lisa was awesome.

DELICIOUS! Sorry no pics- we ate it all so fast! Tofu Pad Thai- unlike any other I've had and was absolutely yum! Plenty of fried tofu with, beautiful tamarind color and flavor. Mongolian Beef- tons of meat, great flavor, enough for lunch the next day. Cha Goi - Fried meat eggrolls. Great Nuac Cham sauce! included lettuce leaves to warp them in but no pickled vegetables ( Best with hoisin and sriracha in the leaf, then put the roll and dip in the nuac cham- EXCELLENT! read more
