The interior of the restaurant definitely stands out from other Thai restaurants in Toronto. The artwork on the walls, combined with artisanal sculptures makes for an atmosphere that will leave you feeling like royalty! You can tell that every detail was meticulously thought out to create a dining experience unlike any other.

Their menu includes a full variety of classic Thai dishes along with their own creative twists on them. You can enjoy your favourite pad thai or tom yum soup, but with an elevated twist. Street food favourites like Street-style Crispy Shrimp Pancake are also available, so there’s always something delicious to try!

A classic is their Thai Noodle Soup with Chicken. This dish comes with rice noodles in a rich chicken broth served with chicken, bean sprouts, green onion, and fried garlic. Because of the different ingredients and spices, the soup is always jam-packed with flavours.

Another go-to is the Thai Green Curry. The curry is cooked with green beans, Thai eggplant, basil leaves, and fresh chilli in a coconut milk base. This is an authentic curry with no thickening added to it and it is served with a side of rice. The curry has a nice spice to it which is perfect for people who love some heat!

The Mango with Sticky Rice dessert is a favourite among patrons at Thai Basil. They cook mango, coconut cream, and sugar together to create this rich and luscious dessert. The dish is also nicely presented and comes with chunks of mango with coconut and red bean rice served along with a condensed milk sauce to go with it. You can never go wrong with this dessert!

This place is great for groups! With its modern and chic interior, everyone will feel comfortable and relaxed enough to try new dishes while enjoying their drinks. It’s a wonderful food experience that you don’t want to miss out on!
