Basil - Charlotte

Decent garlic chicken though visually not very appealing and had lettuce in it. Also super strange menu things like no drink list on lunch menu and they won't do fried rice with a dish for an up charge, you have to get a full entree of it.

I really wanted to love it. I found Thai food recently, a restaurant in Lexington SC (to die for). However The service was very good, on time, friendly and helpful. The wontons were ok, couldn't taste what was inside. The Asian sea bass tasted very good. The rice was mildly warm when it came out. The crispy duck was not crispy.

Excellent Service by Brian!! He was very friendly and assisting us all the time. Loved the food so much!! Should definitely try the Sake (le che) rice wine. Loved their soups, The way they presented us the soup with all flashy fire was so aesthetically awesome!! I also liked their Mango Martini. We had a reservation for 8 today. But they made us wait 15 mins to get the table. However, we were satisfied with the taste of the food!!

Not great in terms of vegan options, very expensive for what it is, and there are certain things that they do not change. However, if you want to go with a group and everyone wants to eat here, it is possible. Most curries and noodles have fish sauce and they are not ready to change it. I could get the basil roll without shrimp and my husband (vegetarian) was roasted rice. It was good and my husband was happy with his dish and the portions were great.
