Hit up Basil Canteen a couple weeks okay for Happy Hour and tried new-to-me Thai eats! Started off with the Thaiphoon with mekhong Thai rum, coconut milk, and Thai tea—fun, but not that memorable of a cocktail, honestly. But the sakhoo sal mu was delicious! They are steamed tapioca dumplings filled with pork and peanuts. Would eat again! For a main, I had the yum woon sen, a glass noddle salad with minced chicken and shrimp in a sweet–spicy lime dressing with peanuts and fresh herbs. Fresh and tasty!

It’s okay be busy, but let your clients know. We wait 30 minutes after we order, then we ask about the food and in a rude way they said it will take like 30 minutes more. NO THANKS!

I stopped by on my way home. This place has been here for years, and I didn't even know. I love finding great places close to where I live. The owner was very helpful in what was spicy to order. I will definitely be going back, and I highly recommend trying this place if you haven't yet. I had to come back, and the food was still great. The owner and I had a great conversation. He is a great man living his dream.

I'm usually not a bad reviews person, but my squid was so tough and full of internal shell bits, felt like I was chewing on rubber and plastic.

We have had good meals here in the past, but this visit was a miss on several levels (most of the food, service). Hoping for better if we decide to try them again.
Nice atmosphere/ambiance but food was just middle of the road and prices were high. It was about $15-$20 for a basic Thai dish such as pad Thai, pad kee Mao, tom yum soup, pad Krapow etc.

I ordered their Gra Prao Mu Grob for dinner and was informed by the staff that they were out of this dish approximately after 40-45 minutes. At this point, my party started receiving their meals and I had to wait for an additional 30 minutes for my dish to arrive. An apology was made but no other customer service measures such as a meal discount or free dessert was offered to address this matter.

The Basil Canteen is convenient and close. I had my food delivered to the hotel and it came within the right time frame, so I don't know what the atmosphere is like in the restaurant. I ordered Pad Thai & Pad Kee Mao. The Pad Thai was tasteless and the Pad Kee Mao was delicious. Oh, and the Thai iced teas were tasteless too. Bummer!

Friendly staff, but service was a bit slow. Had to wail quite a while to place our order and had to ask for the check because staff did not come buy. Food was tasty but a little on the salty side.
