Basil Indian Cuisine is considered a favorite and hidden gem on Staten Island. The food is consistently described as magnificent, amazing, delicious, creamy, and spectacular. Popular dishes include the butter paneer, chicken tikka masala, lamb butter masala, chicken saagwala, and Shahi chicken korma. The garlic naan is fluffy, warm, and perfect, while the vegetable samosas and tandoori chicken wings are yummy appetizers. The basmati rice is noted as being excellent, though some wish for a larger portion. The restaurant also offers a great selection of Thai options, like Pad Thai and papaya salad, which are fresh and flavorful, though this menu is expected to be removed by fall 2025. The staff is amazing and accommodating. It is a great spot for both lunch and dinner, with reliable takeout. Spicy requests are honored. Customers report being never disappointed and recommend trying this place.
