Thai Basil in Berkeley offers a convenient option for a quick Thai food fix. I tried their Basil Chili Chicken with fried egg, which was a decent portion size. The chicken itself was cooked well, but the overall flavor lacked the punch I was hoping for.
The ambiance of the restaurant is pretty basic, with simple décor and generic Asian-style furniture. It’s clean and comfortable enough for a casual meal, but the inside space may feel very crowded when you have a few occupied tables. There is open seating outside the restaurant, which is shared by all the other restaurants in that section, so it’s available on a first come, first served basis.
The service was fast but the staff could have been friendlier. When my friends and I asked for to-go boxes and utensils/napkins, we got an angry look from the staff. Please also note that the restaurant doesn’t have a bathroom for its customers, so you’ll have to find some place else if you really need to go.
Overall, Thai Basil is an average option. The food is decent, but a little pricey for what you get. If you’re in the area and looking for a quick bite, it’s not a bad choice, but there are probably better Thai restaurants in Berkeley worth exploring.

My go-to is the basil fried rice chicken as it is always consistent. The wok-flavor is present in every bite I take. The basil flavor is perfect and something many other authentic Thai restaurants can’t quite get right. Pro-tip is to ask for chili powder and mix the fried rice with it before eating.

A decent place to eat tucked into the back of iAsian ghetto with good portion sizes at a reasonable rate. One self-orders on a kiosk or pay with cash at the counter.
They’ll call your number when your food is ready and you can come pick it up.
The staff are friendly and there’s plenty of seating!

Quaint little place loved the atmosphere. Also, the client cow that was there was very engaging and fun to be with the food was utterly. Amazing, could not ask for more authentic than real Chinese food.

Very affordable Thai place in Berkeley. Great food, very good and fat service.
Thai Hot is spicy without a doubt but don’t fall for the looks, definitely taste the food and feel the heat.
Padthai is very tasty but different from other Thai places, in a better way.
Thai Fried Spring Rolls are 3 pretty plate but just ok, can be skipped easily.
Cashews with Tofu curry is very good in taste, plateful for sharing and perfect .

I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve had the fried rice here. The Basil Fried Rice Chicken is soooooo good!
It is a little pricey for rice, but they give you so much that it’s two meals for me. The staff can be intimidating, but I order takeout so it doesn’t bother me.
Thai Basil is a staple of South Side!

I tried to eat here on a recent visit but was unable to. Their menu on the wall shows options that are unavailable on the electronic ordering system. I explained the situation to the person behind the counter and asked if I could order with her…she said no I had to order from the machine.
Needless to say, my burrito from next door was very good.

Reasonable price resulting from targeting students 🙂
Red curry: one of the best I have ever had, would make you eat more rice
Pad Thai: super sweet just not something I would order again
Aunt even brought more bowls since we were sharing food, super considerate

SO heard some rave reviews about this place when he was at Berkeley so had to try at least a dish. Food/Taste/Flavor: 3/5 (maybe a 4 for college food) – Basil Chili Chicken (4) was a generous portion with rice. You can really taste the basil on the chili oil but the chicken itself was dry. There were some pieces of basil, bell pepper, and onion that helped cut through the dryness but you definitely need some sides to help with this dish
Ambience: N/A – to go only but there are some benches and tables in the center of the plaza to eat at
Service: 3/5 – cashier lady did not seem like she wanted to be there so we ordered from the kiosk instead
Value for price: 3/5 – do note that the menu is outdated and the price is about $1.50 more per dish and they charge $0.10 for plastic bag for take out even though it’s the only option
