super love their food and ambiance! 💚 so far the best thai restaurant i’ve ever been to. i think it’s suitable for any occasion. my fiancé and i went there for a late lunch date. place is totally relaxing and romantic because of the lush greenery view which makes it perfect for al fresco dining and dates! went back just after 5 days and brought our whole family for father’s day and they loved everything as well.

2. chicken pandan
3. pad thai with chicken
comes with complimentary appetizer

just one dish is enough to rate this a 5 star! khao soi - excellent rendition here with amazingly tasty soup with egg noodles & chicken. som tam was refreshing. chicken pandan was ok. good service!

i've known this place for the longest time but its my first time to dine here. i've been to different thai restaurants but this is the best.

if its your first time, try their best sellers like the spring rolls, pineapple rice, salted egg fried chicken and pad thai. 5/5

even the drinks are really good and refreshing, especially the iced lemongrass tea and tamarind juice.

ambiance: 5/5 the place is al fresco and gets packed during the weekends, so its better to have a reservation.

service: 5/5

the food here is ok. i was not overwhelmed by it. the service was good, but the wait staff does not know the dishes. for instance we ordered 3 types of fried rice. they brought them out separately and we asked which one they brought to the table. 3 of the waiters had to examine the rice to figure out which one it was.

also the 3 types we ordered were chicken, beef and pork. i'm fairly certain that the 2nd one they brought out was crab fried rice.

not a horrible experience but the food and service could use some work

i’m a big fan of thai foods!! this is perfect for those who love thailand cuisine. they have perfect outdoor place surrounded by beautiful greens, plans, trees and everything. they have indoor dines too with matched with thai ambiance feels. i really love their foods. we ordered pad thai, mango salad, and fresh spring rolls. they have complimentary sides too. everything is perfect. but there’s a little bit of flies flying around when you choose to dine outside. overall, thumbs up!

good place, good food. location was not hard to find. huge parking at the back. alfresco dining is available. pet friendly. prices were mostly between 300-400 per serving but the serving size was good enough for 2-3 people. too bad they don’t serve the famous thai omelet/omelette. we loved the fresh spring rolls and chicken wrapped in pandan.

the lime and basil salad is a must try. huge serving. the staffs were attentive and give us a nice table to spend our wedding anniversary celebration. safe to dine because it's al fresco.

been here for quite a few times already and it's always a great experience! just be sure to make a reservation because sometimes, they're really fully-booked! i love the food and the service and will surely be back here soon!

great food! family and i enjoyed it. pad thai was the highlight, as well as the tom yum soup. great service, food delivered right away! even the free kropek with tamarind honey sauce was awesome.

surprisingly what stands out the most for us was their kao pad sarapod(rice on a pineapple)! i love everything we ordered but this rice had our eyes locked as well as our tastebuds! we would definitely go back to this place to check out other menus.

first time trying this place with the fam & so glad we did! we celebrated new year's here because we've been hearing reviews about this place. a bit disappointed that some of the dishes we wanted to order such as the salted egg fried chicken was not available. however, we were super satisfied with the food and service. everything we ordered tasted divine! definitely one of my fave thai food places - even tops those in the metro.

a run down of what we ordered - we deliberately decided to order everything that is marked as their specialty!

(rating out of 5 stars)
pomelo salad - ⭐⭐⭐
generous with pomelo! really love the dressing! but would like it more if there were more chicken or greens. a change in texture perhaps aside from the pomelo.

fresh springrolls - ⭐⭐⭐⭐
we weren't a fan of fresh springrolls in general, but we ordered this because the fried ones were unavailable. however, it did not disappoint. once again, this restaurant's flavor is on point! the sauce is sweet, sour, spicy, very umami.

tom yum goong - ⭐⭐⭐⭐
i love this soup! and this place gets the right amount of sourness and spiciness. it makes you want to eat more!

pad thai - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
this is a winner for me! definitely one of the best pad thai's i've tried. i love the idea of the crunchy egg on top because once mixed in with the noodles, it gives a great texture. once again, the sauce and noodles combination is just right!

chicken with cashews - ⭐⭐⭐
this is what we ordered in place of the salted egg fried chicken. it's good, but it was okay. nothing special for me. can skip!

crispy tilapia with tamarind sauce - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
ugh! divine! you can't leave this place without trying this. i am more of a meat person, but all of us agreed that this fish dish is one of the main highlights of our dinner. the tamarind sauce really complements the fried fish with its right amount of sweetness and sourness.

crispy pork with red curry sauce - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
another stellar dish! the pork is tender and melts in your mouth, but the red curry sauce is simply delicious! one minor comment on the dish would be, to be more generous on the red curry sauce! we wanted to have more of it and place it in our rice. it was not too spicy, mild, but very delicious! i can taste the coconut milk in the sauce and i just wanted more of it.

pineapple fried rice - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
another winner! this place, i can confidently say, perfected the recipe of their pineapple fried rice. we ordered this because it was a house specialty, even when we were already a bit familiar with pineapple fried rice in chinese cuisines. however, i love that this place added curry flavoring in their pineapple rice. just that tiny modification changed everything! because now, the pineapple's sweetness was not too hard or too overwhelming, but balances the aromatic curry in the rice.

mango sticky rice - ⭐⭐⭐
for dessert, we ordered mango sticky rice to end the meal. this dish was one of our favorites, but after tasting all the phenomenal entrées, i guess this one tasted okay - not so unique & can get some place else.

overall experience was amazing! we requested indoor seating because it was too cold outside. we're lucky to be able to do advance reservations on the day itself because towards the evening, guests were already lining up. so better secure your reservations first before dining here!

honestly, the food was great! their dishes have lots of flavors, just like authentic thai food should taste. the food was big in portion. staffs were attentive and very helpful. the ambiance is relaxing as well. lime and basil thai restaurant is truly a hidden gem. you guys should try it!

i’m torn between rating them a 4 or a 5 because we requested for a reservation to an outdoor table since we are quite uncomfortable dining out in these times and they confirmed via fb messenger. when we arrived we were being led to an indoor table instead.. i reminded them of my request and they were quick to want to accommodate us but we decided to just get the table near the door which was still semi-outdoors because they would have to shuffle some reservations around to accommodate us. just a tiny bit disappointed that they forgot our request but still giving them a perfect rating because the food was superb and service was great.
