Soups

Tom Yum Gai (Lemongrass Soup)

$6.50+

Chicken, mushrooms, and galangal simmer in lemongrass broth.

“Delicious food and friendly staff. The Tom Yum soup with chicken was perfectly seasoned and just the right amount of spice. Added rice noodles and it was the perfect meal. I have a gluten allergy and the staff was happy to look at ingredients to make sure certain dishes were safe. My husband had sesame chicken which was crispy on the outside and juicy inside. I’ll be thinking about that soup until the next time. Can’t wait to go back.”

Noodles

Thai Basil Pad-Spaghetti

$15.99

Spaghetti stir-fried with chicken or pork, vegetables, and chef's sauce.

“If you are in the area, then it is worth your while to try out Thai Basil. Our waitress had the whole table smiling and laughing and recommended I try the the Thai spaghetti (admittedly the rec was biased as it was her own home recipe, but that made me want to try it all the more!) and no complaints here! Prices were very reasonable, staff was great, and portions were aplenty. Need I say more?”
