Thai Chili Basil - Melrose

Excellent dining experience! The food is absolutely fantastic, and the staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming. I really appreciate the atmosphere and the people who work there.

The tempura, which is plentiful, reminds me more of the breading you find in a sweet and sour dish from a typical Chinese-American restaurant. I do appreciate that you can select the level of spiciness. The price-to-quality ratio is decent enough to rate it a four; however, if you’re introducing someone to Thai food for the first time, there are better options in the area. On a positive note, the woman who worked there was incredibly friendly. I arrived a bit early, and she apologized for the food not being ready, almost as if she were a magician or something!

Absolutely delicious! The main dishes, including the noodles and sauces, are fantastic (I highly recommend the spicy basil Fancy Tofu). Plus, they offer a mix-and-match menu that allows you to create your own signature dish. The location is very convenient for pickup, too. It can get busier during the day, but by dinnertime, you can typically pull right up or find parking directly across the street at the train station. Service: Takeout Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $20–30

"I’m not entirely sure what to say, but I give the food a perfect rating of 5, the service a 5, and the atmosphere a 5 as well!"

My favorite restaurant! I've ordered delivery from here countless times, and the food is always delicious. It never lets me down.
