Staff was polite and pleasant. Food was delicious and into "home cooking" level, not so commercialized. We'll def come back.

I have lived in West Hartford for close to 20 years, and I have been wanting to visit here for such a long time. Today was the day and IT - WAS - FANTASTIC. First, we were greeted by the owner and her employees who were so charming and friendly. Second, the food was fresh and so delicious. My son and I both had drunken noodle with chicken. The rice noodles were wide and tender. The vegetables were crunchy and fresh. And the flavor was so good I could have eaten another bowl. When I post reviews, I only take the time to write about an experience that was positive. Nice people and great food mean we will be back. Keep up the great work guys!

deceiving description on Uber eats. This restaurant created a “ghost kitchen” On the Uber eats app to make it seem like it was a 100% vegan restaurant. They even went as far to give it a different name than hot basil. If a business practice is trying to receive customers in this way, I wonder and what other way is there to see customers?

We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner! Started with crab Rangoon, fresh rolls and dumplings. All delicious! Dinners were pork pad Thai, beef pad Thai, fried rice and a most interesting chicken salad. Everything was delicious with most delicate flavors. We were pretty full but needed to try the mango sticky rice and it did not disappoint! Mango was do fresh and the contrasting warm rice was devine. Best Thai food out in a long time.
Drunken noodles with veggies and tofu every Tuesday for years! ?The family that owns hot basil is so sweet and amazing.I will continue my Tuesday tradition until I am 99.9% composed of noodles.

This was a great find-- I did takeout so can't comment much on ambiance but I will say I appreciate the staff's attention to detail. I ordered this dish because it sounded like a safe bet for a non-spicy option and put in the notes "not spicy please" to be safe. Upon receiving my order, I was pleased to see "Not spicy" written on the bag. Also, the meal was absolutely delicious, so a big win all around!

HBTC creates distinct excellent flavors for all its classic Thai dishes. The Coconut Chicken soup was citrusy delicious and intense as was the hot and sour shrimp soup which had a complex and rather spicy savory broth. The spicy wings were both crispy and delicate and even the spicy pork dumplings were a savory mouthful. The stir fry and coconut curry were excellent and again distinctive. Worth both a detour and a repeat visit!
