My experience is based solely on the lunch special. I'm beginning to see that just because it's 'special', doesn't mean that $7.95 necessarily buys you a satisfying meal.
Your lunch special of choice comes with:
- vegetarian spring rolls (quite possibly the best part, and fried to a magnificent deep brown)
- hot & sour soup (meager little bowl, but nice and sour)
- green salad (ice berg lettuce drizzled with a big of dressing)
- rice (but not if you have noodles...no rice for you)
I had the pad thai with chicken. I didn't finish the whole plate (it was a generous portion), but I ended up chucking the styrofoam package right into the bin. My stomach felt twisted up after eating it... don't know if it was just a bad day, or a case of so-so noodles.
For dinner, I would try Thai Basil again, because I don't think restaurants should only be judged for their pull-customers-in lunch specials.
One thing that did bug me was that a worker was cleaning all the glass near us while we were eating... mmm, chemicals.
