I found a live, crawling bug in my salad at Thai Basil on Commercial drive. No refund or discount offered. Just a “new” plate of food. Will not recommend to anyone.

Yo this restaurant is my fave the taste was just my liking and I was ordering for the first time. I’d like to eat here again.

Mood. This place is a mood I gotta share this.

Worst Thai food I have ever had! Spring rolls don’t have anything inside them expect only dough and greasy!

Ordered Pad Thai was cold and no flavour!

I was so disappointed I had to share!

I never have given Facebook reviews but this was so bad I had to warn others
