The check-in system is fantastic! Yelp for the win.Great food with fast and friendly service! We highly recommend the pad see ew, pad Thai, and their version of beef broccoli (garlic pepper steak).We also got the Thai chicken wings to start with Thai tea and Vietnamese coffee.About $100 for three people :)

A gem of a place!!! Thai food here is delicious!! The atmosphere is clean, cozy, and airy. Service is detail oriented, polite, and organized.It can get busy around dinner time. Expect a wait of 30++ minutes. To me, food was well worth it.Papaya salad was perfectly seasoned and tasted fresh. Tom yum soup hot hit the spot 😋. Pan fried clear noodles were loaded w veggies.This will be in my repeat restaurant list for sure!

Fantastic experience at Basil and Co. Some of the best service Ive received in quite a while, with some tasty Thai food in a chic environment made for a great lunch.ITEMS ORDERED:Crispy Soft Shell Crab Papaya SaladCrispy TofuCrab Fried RiceMango Sticky RiceChicken SatayPad ThaiTom Yum SoupLime MojitoTASTE:Overall everything came out hot and fresh which is always a win. I really dont get when I receive my dishes at other places and its barely warm, not even near hot.If you like papaya salad & crab be sure to get the Crispy Soft Shell Crab Papaya Salad. Your usual well done papaya salad with some spice, sweetness, sour notes but with some quite sizeable crispy soft shell crabs. Looks great on the plate and taste great all the same.Im somewhat allergic to mangos but Ive always enjoyed the rice portion of the dish. This was one of the better ones that Ive had. Great sweetness and the coconut milk worked well with the rice that had a nice chew. I ate one piece of mango & that was a great ripeness. Oh, and its heart shaped for your viewing pleasure.I think I dipped too many things in the peanut sauce that came with the Chicken Satay because I liked the flavor so much. I find these sauces usually taste about the same at most places, but this one just found a great balance, especially with the general peanut flavor, it was really present in a great way.Im not one for mocktails but they serve their place and I was surprised on how good the Lime Mojito was. I appreciated how the it just tasted freshly made, and not too syrupy nor artificial. Its basically a well made mojito minus the alcohol. I kept thinking how good it would be with some alcohol :)As is common with other Thai restaurants, there is a spice level for many dish, 1 - 5. I went with a 3 and it was a good spice level given my usual high tolerance. Plus, I did use the spicy table condiments for more flavor and spice.SERVICE, LOCATION & PARKING:The service was definitely a highlight of the meal. I think like so many of us weve sadly been accustomed to now receive minimal (to no) service and than being met with the expectation of an extravagant tip. So glad this was not the case here. Service as friendly and attentive. I appreciated how they genuinely checked how we liked the food and answered any questions we had about the menu.I saw some photos of the place before coming here for the first time, but even so, walking in gives such a nice vibe. Clean, stylish, warm interior with larger booths in the middle and standard tables around the perimeter. Its really the small things that get glossed over in other places that make you appreciate when other places take care of them. Such as a very clean and still stylish restroom, to the condiments on the table not being filthy from previous use. I wish other places stayed on top of things as much as they seem to at Basil & Co. Its your neighborhood Thai restaurant, in a more elevated space. You can bring your own wine if thats your type of thing.They are located in a little strip mall next to a Montessori school. They have their own (shared) parking lot so parking is a breeze. If looks like you could easily find residential street parking if the lot was full though.Cheers!

First time having Basil&Co. I ordered Panang Curry (w/ beef), Drunken Noodles (w/Shrimp), Pineapple Fried Rice (w/ Shrimp and Chicken) and Green Curry (w/ beef) - I ordered it all mild heat because my mom doesn’t eat spicy.. and lemme just say, this food was DELICIOUS!!!! I get nervous trying new places, especially when I know I’ll be spending a hefty penny, but this place is so worth it. Even without heat, all the food was so full of flavor. 10/10.

Service is excellent. Staff is very friendly and check on your table often. The food is fresh and their plates can be shared with someone. Maybe order two plates to share with one another with one rice bowl. Delicious! Gracias Basil & Co Owners/Staff. Sending you positive vibes 😇

Taste :4.7/5Environment: 4.4/5Service：4.5/5Stepping into this lively yet cozy strip mall gem, I was instantly transported to the vibrant streets of Bangkok.One of the must-try items on the menu is the green curry, which is rich, creamy, and spicy. It comes with your choice of chicken, beef, pork, tofu, or vegetables, and is served with steamed jasmine rice. The curry has a perfect balance of flavors, with coconut milk, basil, bamboo shoots, bell peppers, and eggplant. The spice level can be adjusted to your preference, from mild to very hot.Another dish that you cant miss is the mango sticky rice, which is a traditional Thai dessert. It consists of sweet sticky rice topped with fresh ripe mango slices and coconut cream sauce. The dessert is refreshing and satisfying, with a contrast of textures and temperatures. The mango is juicy and fragrant, while the rice is chewy and warm.Between the warm hospitality, vibrant décor featuring teasers of Thai culture and street food-inspired menu, Basil and Co brings the flavors of Thailand to your front door.
