Authentic by Tam20005 via Citysearch on 7/11/2011
Very authentic. Very. It was a taste explosion! Small on the inside, not much of a bar but the food was so great. I liked that you could see inside the kitchen as well- made for some entertainment. I recommend this place to anyone that is…
Dirty Kitchen Habits in Basil by Godd E via Insider Pages on 12/3/2010
I use to like Basils a lot, then the service get poorer and yes, you waited and their attitude became more arrogant. I don't pay for arrogant. Then even though i was tired of this place, (because i can't enjoy a meal with people who don't…
BEST THAI DOWNTOWN by sweet6simplicity via Citysearch on 4/26/2009
If you want to try some good Thai food, I highly recommend Basil. Weekends are super busy, though, so be prepared. My advice is go on an off-day (ie. Monday :) and try it out. Then, you can go back on weekends if you think it's worth…
RESERVATION FOR 4 WILL COST YOU $100 BUCKS UP FRONT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! by Wecottfoodcritic via Citysearch on 3/7/2009
This place has good food great service but they need help on getting the whole wait time and taking reservation thing down. It's not very hard to be nice on the phone when someone calls to try and support your place of business by trying…
Best Pad Thai! by Karen M via Insider Pages on 1/6/2009
Basil's is the best Thai place in town. The food is always great every time we go. The service is awesome. Sometimes it gets busy so be prepared! The coconut ice cream and chicken basil is also very good!
Best Thi food in Charleston by jpalmer843 via Citysearch on 9/10/2008
I've been several times and have always had a good meal. I like the atmosphere and the setting. It does get very busy and can have a long wait, but it is worth it. There is a bar next door if the wait is long they will come and get you…
Benefits from no direct competition by poopaskoopa via Citysearch on 9/7/2008
The service was prompt and pleasant. The decor of the restaurant was trendy. My table had a light placed in a funny way that it cast shadow on my food in a weird way. I don't think I had ever noticed my own shadow at a restaurant. …
FISRT TIME - WILL NOT BE MY LAST! by INLUVWCHARLESTON via Citysearch on 5/6/2008
This was my very first experience with Thai food. I was a little unsure (even had a second place to go if I was hungry after). No need for that! This was some of the best service I have had in months of dining out! My water glass never…
Best pad thai ever! by ghasan via Citysearch on 11/13/2006
If you're looking for great Thai food, Basil is the place to go. Get there early because it is packed after 11:45 am. Make reservations for dinner. It's such a happening place that even eating alone at the bar is cool and gives you an…

I have never had a bad meal here. The staff is kind and I bring all my out of town company here. yum
Pad Thai is to die for! by Ally A via Insider Pages on 6/19/2006
Basil easily has the best Thai food in Charleston...definitely the best Thai restaurant that I have ever been to. The pad thai is out of this world delicious! It is definitely very busy on the weekends, and I would classify the style as…
Excellent Thai Restaurant by Jillsy M. via Judy's Book on 4/13/2006
We went to Basil on the advice of some friends (even though we had never tried authentic Thai food and are really glad we did! Basil serves top notch Thai food, and it is now one of our favorite restaurants in Charleston. The prices are…
Best Thai food in Town by Catherine C via Insider Pages on 11/22/2005
Basil was my first exposure to Thai food which was somewhat unfortunate for me because none that I have had since has ever measured up to it. I have never had anything there that I didn't enjoy--from the appetizers and soup (the coconut…

Set in what used to be a waffle house, Basil Restaurant in Charleston provides some of the most affordable, authentic, and YUMMY food in Charleston. They do not take reservations so make sure to get there early on Friday's and Saturday's…
My favorite restaurant in Charleston by Caroline H. via Judy's Book on 7/20/2005
Basil in downtown Charleston is undeniably the best Asian/Thai restaurant in Charleston, South Carolina. The atmosphere is eclectic and casual, but fun. The prices are totally reasonable and the portions are large and enough to share…
