I ride past this place everyday & finally stopped in. So glad I did. It's a hidden gem! I've been there 3 times this wk & will make return again sometime soon. The food is good, tastes super fresh. I purchased their chicken teriyaki w/ white rice & their version of orange chicken (pictured below). My son wasn't too fond of it as he's never gotten dry crispy chicken for orange chicken. I did call to complain about the issue, left a detailed msg and received no response. I went back the next day with that plate and was told that's just how they make it. For that I knocked off a star as I was expecting a different outcome. They did not offer an even exchange nor an apology for the orange chicken. I just asked for the plate to be discarded & paid for my chicken teriyaki to-go (pictured below). While waiting I saw a few dishes come out to other's that were dining in. I asked what they were and was told shrimp pineapple fried rice, and the other was garlic chicken with fried rice. Sidenote... when you request double meat. It is DOUBLE MEAT! My first trip I had double meat. The entire white container was filled with meat. The rice was in a small take out box separately. That's what had me sold! Their website is user friendly as well.

Basil Rice is so consistent and reliable - always delicious and delivery is always on time if not early! You can get quite a hearty meal at an affordable price. Whatever you get, definitely give the mango sticky rice a try for dessert! Their Thai iced tea is also delicious.

The food isn't bad, but it's just not very flavorful. The Sriracha beef did not taste like sriracha at all, and both dishes really lacked spice and flavor. The portion size was also somewhat small. All in all, it's fine but the other thai restaurants around it are just much better.

Inconsistent. Last bowl I got from them had zero meat, barely any veggies and consisted of 90% rice. Trash. Don’t waste your money.

Food was very good. I'm a Pad Thai snob and really liked theirs. Large portions, not overly oily like many others in the genre. We ate in, but got the sense they mostly do take out.
