  • I have eaten at Basil Thai uptown a couple of times and had great experiences there, so I was excited when I learned they were opening a location in StoneCrest. I recently was at Polished getting a mani after work, and decided that instead of cooking dinner when I got home, I would just pick up some take-out instead. I went over to Basil and placed an order to go and had a glass of wine at the bar while I waited. I forgot the name of the wine, but it was an Australian Sauvignon Blanc that was very quaffable. It was either $8 or $9 for a glass, which is a typical price-point for that quality of wine in this area. The pour was somewhat generous, so that is a plus. When it came time to order, I did not see Penang Curry, which is one of my favorite dishes at the Thai House. I mentioned it to the bartender since I was placing my takeout order at the bar. She commented that Penang Curry is "not really Thai, it is more Indian". Huh...really? Not sure about that but I just let it drop, and ordered Red Curry with chicken instead. My order was ready pretty quickly, so as soon as I finished my glass of wine, I went home to dig into dinner. Truthfully, I was a bit disappointed in it. They were not overly generous with the chicken and the red curry was ok, but a bit on the bland side. (I had ordered it as medium spicy, not mild.) It contained bell peppers, bamboo shoots, and basil... but overall was not really that flavorful and did not satisfy my Thai craving. I do think they are priced a little higher than some of the local competition - I think my total for 1 glass of wine and 1 entrĂ©e was between $26-28. I don't mind paying a little more if their food blew the others out of the water... but based on this visit, that is just not the case. Unless they give me a really compelling reason to go back, next time I have a craving for Thai, I will more likely go back to Bahn Thai instead.
