The place was clean, the service was courteous. I usually go with Pad Thai when it comes with Thai restaurant, because it's so common. This time I decided to try Panang beef curry with medium spicy level, which claimed to be most popular curry, my son ordered Gapow. I think my choice was correct, the curry was creamy with delicious coconut milk and peanut panang sauce, it's perfect companion for the rice. Gapow had nice flavor of basil, but I like Panang curry better.There are plenty of parking spaces nearby.

We had the pad thai mild, which tasted good and had a little bit of kick. The kick was way less than a jalapeño, for reference.The pad thai is gluten free.Service was good and quick. We'll be going back.

I knew after the first bite that I was going to leave a 5 star review. After a long day tasting this food is such a treat. I got Thai fried rice with veggies and no spicy, it is delicious. Mouth watering vegetables! The spring rolls are fresh and delicious too. Thank

Delicious food and wonderful service! We loved the Pad Thai - it was the perfect degree of spice for us. Appetizers were also stellar. I look forward to eating here again!

Great quality authentic Thai food. Legitimately some of the best Thai I have had. Noodles were outstanding, great texture and not at all greasy. Service was attentive. Price was reasonable. Will be back next time I'm in

This was a takeout dinner for host's birthday party. I can tell where food comes from by tasting it. Hot Basil is exceptional. No matter where we live Hot Basil is the best restaurant in Overland Park, Lenexa and Leawood, KS. You will not be disappointed. Hot Basil Thanks again. Drs.

This was my first time trying Hot Basil Thai Cuisine, I ordered around 8:30 (close is 9), and was still able to place a to-go order. My favorite Thai dish is Tom Yum soup with shrimp, and I was pleasantly surprised I did not have to pay extra for any protein except the "seafood" option.Once I got to the restaurant and entered the front door I noticed the layout was mindful of dine-in guests AND takeout guests, the main dining room is in an adjacent room. The front desk area is straight across from the front door, but far enough back that it could accommodate multiple people waiting. The staff greeted me and I was given the soup I had ordered.After I got back to my car I could tell the container was not filled all the way, which concerned me as I had paid about $12 for to-go soup. Upon opening my to-go bag I found that I was right, it was not filled all the way, and the color seemed off for "Thai hot", so I became concerned it would not be spicy. It did not have the classic red peppers saturating the soup.I was wrong! I don't know how they are able to achieve such great heat with almost no red peppers in the broth. It was a wonderful building heat that burns hotter over time, perfect.There were plenty of shrimp about 7-8, they were cleaned, deveined, and perfectly cooked. The soup had a beautiful balance of ingredients and flavor. It did not have mushrooms in it, and that did not bother me, and I hardly noticed.I highly recommend Hot Basil Thai Cuisine, and I will be a returning customer. They are open later than my normal place and the food is less expensive, and if consistent they could easily become my go-to!
