Fantastic curry, with real curry leaves and the fresh fragrance of coconut cream. Can’t wait to come back and try their green curry.
The pad see ew noodles were bouncy, and the beef was a tad bit dry but very flavourful. The house chili sauce was delicious with it, very garlicky and spicy.
Their unique app stuffed chicken wings is a must try, and very reminiscent of others I’ve had in south east Asia. The dipping sauce has a kick but the sweetness is plenty to temper it down.
Thai milk tea has such a beautiful layer of foam, and the yuzu mojito is quite refreshing alongside the heavy curry.
Can’t wait to come back and try their other menu items!! Perfect for date night, and can confirm their office catering is delicious.

I haven’t had much Brazilian food, but this is clearly a hidden gem. One bite is enough to make the flavors stick in your memory. There’s a tremendous difference between ‘good’ and ‘truly excellent’ food — the latter usually requires several times more effort, and you can feel that effort here. The quality of the ingredients and the care put into seasoning and marination really stand out. The chefs here are clearly talented people who strive for perfection. Respect to the kitchen team.

Last night I had crispy duck curry soup because another customer left a very good review about this dish. The meat of duck tasted very tender but I didn’t find any crispy skin of duck. Maybe should just call it curry duck soup without crispy taste. In general, the dish i ordered tasted good. I recommended.

I have been coming to Sweet Basil with my partner and friends for the last 3 years. Every time I go, I am never disappointed! The owner, Alain, and the team are so sweet, and do an exceptional job: the service is fast, the food is delicious and the vibe of the place is really great. It feels very personable and the food is out of this world. The sweet basil fish is amazing , and the chicken spring rolls are a #1 choice!! I always recommend it to friends. The restaurant can be a busy and active, and also intimate and quiet, so it’s really the best place for a variety of occasions, i’ve had birthdays dinners, solo lunches and dates here,, 5 star place without a doubt 🙂

If you’re looking to elevate your curry experience, the crispy duck Panang curry is an absolute must-try. This dish is a beautiful fusion of rich flavors and textures, delivering a delightful balance between the crispy, savory duck and the creamy, aromatic curry sauce.
The star of this dish is, of course, the crispy duck. It’s perfectly fried to achieve that ideal balance between crunchy skin and tender, juicy meat. The duck’s richness is a perfect match for the bold and fragrant Panang curry sauce, which is thick, creamy, and a little spicy—though not overwhelming. The smooth coconut milk in the sauce complements the savory heat from the red curry paste and the subtle zing of kaffir lime leaves, creating a mouthwatering symphony of flavors.
What makes this dish stand out is how the crispy duck holds up against the curry. As you bite into each crispy piece into the velvety sauce, the contrast of textures—crispy skin and smooth curry—becomes even more satisfying. It’s a textural delight. The duck’s fatty richness is balanced by the curry’s fresh notes of lemongrass and basil, adding a zesty, herby touch that cuts through the indulgence.
Served with a side of jasmine rice, this dish is not only a feast for the eyes, with its vibrant red curry sauce and the golden brown duck, but it also provides a complete, indulgent meal. The curry’s heat lingers gently on the tongue, without overpowering the senses, so each bite is both comforting and exciting.
If you’re a fan of Thai food, this crispy duck Panang curry is a luxurious spin on a traditional favorite—offering both complexity and simplicity in every bite. It’s the perfect harmony of crispy, tender, spicy, sweet, and creamy. Highly recommended for those who enjoy a rich, flavorful curry with a touch of elegance. This is the type of signature dish you go out of your way to order and I highly recommend it for those who enjoy a rich, flavorful curry with a touch of elegance.

The place is beautifully decorated, and the service is very nice. The flavors met my expectations, though the mango sticky rice was a bit too sour for my taste. Overall, it’s a good spot for those who want to experience authentic Thai cuisine
