Thai Basil

Visited Vermont for the day and stopped by here for some tasty Thai food. Oh my gosh, this is definitely one of the best Thai restaurants I’ve been to. Was so pleasantly surprised by the explosion of authentic flavors in the: PAPAYA SALAD The fresh, green papaya had such a crunchy bite to, holding true to the authenticity of Thai food. The best papaya salad I’ve ever had was in Chiang Mai, Thailand and I would say this is a close second. Which is saying a lot! The simplicity of ingredients is what makes a papaya salad so tasty, from the shredded carrots to crunchy green beans to the spicy Thai chilies and chopped peanuts. Every bite was tangy, crunchy, spicy and a party of flavors and textures in your mouth. KEE MAO/DRUNKEN NOODLES This dish HANDS DOWN best drunken noodles I’ve had in the states and that’s saying so much. I am always on the hunt for some good drunken noodles and the search ends here. Oh my goodness, the noodles were perfectly cooked with just the right amount of bite to it. The veggies that were sautéed in went along great with the sauces that were tossed in, so freaking tasty. The spice level was PERFECT love a good medium-hot spice level. So flavorful and so incredibly satisfying. PANANG CHICKEN CURRY A deliciously rich and creamy curry with so many flavor elements from the coconut base to red curry to layer of spices. Every bite was so tasty and the chicken was perfectly tender and well salted. Such a tasty Thai curry dish! Service was so friendly and fast. Our food came out hot and fresh, the way every place should be! The food is truly next level here. What a cute restaurant and busy location with so many fun shops around it! Will definitely come back here on my next trip to Vermont 😊

In the charming town I adore, I stumbled upon a Thai restaurant that left a positive impression. The location is good, easy to find the parking lot . The food was delicious, and the ambiance was delightful, making for a great overall experience. However, the only drawback was that they didn’t have any Thai pancakes, and the prices here were a bit on the higher side. The Pad Wood Sen, i have ordered it with tofu and the servicer told me that I can have one side for free, but actually they charged me $9+ more for the 3 pieces shrimps..

07 Oct 2023: dinner, walked in solo but talked to Christina, a random kind stranger with Range Rover experience business. Ordered green curry, nice and spicy, some sweetness due to coconut milk. Also, got myself a ginger martini which was delicious. Great dine in place, a little pricey. $45-50 including tip.

This past weekend was the second time we had lunch here. We arrived at around 2 pm for a late lunch on a cool fall day. Their outdoor seating was open but empty and since we had our dogs with us we sat outdoors. I was quite impressed with the prompt service for a single occupied table doors. The food was amazing. My wife and I shared a Papaya salad and a red curry with vegetables. They brought me some crushed Thai red chili peppers when I asked for some spice. All in all a great place for lunch. Will visit again on our next trip.

We had a lovely Sunday lunch at Thai Basil to end our camping trip and Manchester stroll with a golden key and oooh they delivered! We had the Siam stir fry and it was perfection in form of food! Our friends had the teriyaki chicken which also looked very yummy and the basil spring rolls were so refreshing! We’re decided on making this a necessary stop whenever we’re around again!

Everything was so good!! Panang curry and pad see ew ( very garlicky) were amazing . Basil spring rolls with shrimp inside and peanut sauce were good. Got mango sticky rice to go and that was also good, semi-sweet and delicious. Staff was very friendly. Just the right size portion, but could’ve eaten more since it was so good. Everyone at our table loved their meal and we all ordered different things
