Green Basil - Tasty Thai

Charles Rez

You wouldn't think much of this quaint little spot but the food here really packs a punch. I got the yellow chicken curry with white rice and it was incredible. The chicken was cooked well, and the curry came out steaming hot with such a great aroma of flavors. The creaminess of the curry complimented the rice well, and added a new depth of flavor with the vegetables. Not to mention that they gave me a lot of chicken and a lot of potatoes and carrots. The service was quick and exceptional. I ordered probably within 5 minutes of getting seated and my food came out quickly as well. Highly recommend this place for anyone in the area.

Better than Before! Since we speak Thai, So we have a little chat whit the chef and management. They just move out from busy Thai town and create their own kitchen here. They are just great. This is one of the few times that we had better Thai food outside Thailand. Many things to recommend indeed. We had Fried Pork Basil, 2 Som Tam (papaya salad); Tam Thai(vegetarian salad) and Tam Laos (adding Thai Pickled Fish/chef's recommended) and of course Pad Thai (Stir-fried Rice Noodle. We will be back again for sure!

A hidden restaurant within the Calabasas hills, Green Basil offers a variety of authentic Thai dishes ranging from noodles to curries. The Pad Thai, Panang Curry, and Red Curry are definite classics and are always a delicious choice here.

Small family run restaurant. Lovely atmosphere for lunch 👍🏻

We loved this small restaurant. The delicious food is freshly prepared according to the guests' wishes. The selection of dishes is varied, but not so much with the drinks. The service was nice and helpful. The ambience is a little simple with the plastic tablecloths, but somehow authentic. The portions were large and the value for money was great.

Finally a good Thai spot for this area. Food was authentic and great quality. Will definitely be visiting again. The Rad Na and curry were delicious, and the Tom Kha Kai fantastic.

Great options for vegetarians, including soy chicken products! Their curry dishes are very large, too, and not too spicy.

My wife and I went here for dinner we had Pad Thai we also had some vegetarian egg roll. The food was very good the chicken in our Pad Thai was a little bit dry otherwise it was excellent. The people were very nice it's a small place but comfortable. We will definitely go back.

Pretty good food, panang curry was very flavorful and the server was nice. Food came out at vastly different times for our large group though which is always a bit awkward and a bummer as I like when everyone has their meals. Also, they gave me a very small side of rice for my huge bowl of delicious curry, so I had to eat half like a soup and steal some noodles from my son's dish to dip in. (Rice is cheap so not sure why they're stingy with it).

Authentic and friendly place. Small but tasty. Come before rush hour like meal times and you will be fine. The good part is there is a parking lot next to the building. Nice little place with really Thai food that has not been Americanized and I hope not anytime soon. I can hear the wok sound from where I sit. Taste it while it is smoking hot and it is how the Thai food is supposed to be. Music is Thai, food is Thai, waitress is Thai and the feeling is Thai as well.

Pretty small interior, but it looked like it was the go-to spot for take out. It was a revolving door. Our servers/cooks looked like they could be family and were super attentive and very nice. The spice levels were exactly as ordered. Inside is a little dated, but the food was solid. Tom Kha was a little different than what we are used to, but very good. My wife had the curry shrimp and it was excellent. I had the Beef Pad Kee Mao and beef had an amazing flavor. I would definitely go back!

I never write Google reviews, but I’ve really had it up to my limit with this restaurant. I’ve given it 4 tries now. Every single time I eat here my stomach is in shambles after. I’m not sure what they use when they cook, but there must be some sort of low quality ingredients. I just got a fried rice today and my stomach has been hurting all night. They also barely even gave any meat in it.

I never leave negative reviews for restaurants, but the last two times have been an awful dining experience. The food is not the issue, it is the service. A wrong dish brought out which happens and was replaced, but the staff turned the AC on full blast 5 minutes after “closing” and it was extremely uncomfortable to even finish the food. I understand that restaurants close, but we had to wait for the correct dish and were pressed subtly to leave. We were asked to pay before we even started eating. What’s even worse is that we weren’t the last ones at the restaurant. It feels disrespectful to the customer and dining experience.

placed a to go order and they forgot to make it. when i got theres to pick up they said it would be ready in a minute. they left me sitting there for 20 minutes before i asked and then they as told they forgot and were making it now

2 years ago this was our favorite thai restaurant. But things has changed since. Portions got smaller. Listening skills decreased. I always order no onions and they put onions in my dish. And usually I don’t complain, I just pick the onions out. I always eat not spicy. Last few orders I got extra spicy, even I ordered not spicy, I repeated my self twice - not spicy. Please listen to your customer better. I drove back to exchange it, and got nothing but attitude back. I asked them to do the right thing. But they literally don’t care. Customer service is horrible. We’re not coming back and I’m sad to write that. Beware.

Food was gross. I ordered steak curry and when I brought the food back because of poor taste. They gave me a hard time to return it and I waited for over 15 minutes. Poor service and rude. I will never support there business again
