Thai Basil Pacific Beach Reviews
Nice bowls, not the best but very good for a chain! A really enjoyed the Mexican bowl and in my opening reasonable priced. Also a good interior with space to eat, but no restrooms, keep that in mind.
Great addition to the neighborhood! I love having a healthy option to get in a convenient location to where I work. The salmon and rice are amazing, the Grandma's Bowl. And the broth is really delicious and surprisingly satisfying as a meal replacement some days. Highly recommend!
Their bowls are amazing! I have tried several of them, and my favorites are the Mexican, Mediterranean, and Caesar salads. Each of these bowls hits the spot whether it's for a weekday lunch or a weekend dinner. The "secret" ingredient in all of them is their signature bone broth rice.
Friendly staff, clean interior, delicious and healthy food. It's hard to find a healthy option that's also tasty in the area and they became my favorite lunch spot after the first visit!
Stopped by for lunch on a Saturday. Staff was so kind and friendly. chicken broth & Mexican bowl is delicious! 10/10 recommend!
Food is amazing and so tasty!! Melissa the manager is the best, very friendly and hospitable. If you want to find a place with tasty food and friendly staff with reasonable prices, this is the place!
Honestly really good and the portion was perfect. it is pricey in my opinion but then again it is in Dumbo where those prices are normal. Good spot for a wholesome meal
Lots of healthy options. New to the neighborhood so was exciting to try. Mexican bowl and the bad hombre are my favorites so far. Keep up the good work!!

Phenomenal food. I get their immunity broth and a bowl almost daily. The quality of their broths and food is top notch. Highly recommended.
We were having troubles with an app for our delivery, however the customer service were really amazing to us. They kept keeping us in loop and were very helpful, food is amazing, I highly recommend 😁
Delicious broth! There are many healthy options, including vegan and vegetarian. The employees at the register are nice and helpful. I'm definitely going back.
Love Springbone - the food is always healthy and delicious. The service at this location was so friendly. It’s nice and quiet and clean. Great to grab a healthy bite

Love this place. Prices are a little steep, but you get what you pay for. My go-to is the immunity broth and Mexican bowl. Mixed together, they create a ridiculously yummy soup that takes me 2 days to finish off (making the price feel more reasonable). As soon as the weather turns cooler, I start to crave it.
Solid spot to grab a quick lunch. Can get a nice mix of relatively healthy ingredients - all mashed into a bowl, which I don’t mind to be honest. (I didn’t not try any of the bone broths but hear they’re good as well) It will run you around a little under Chipotle pricing so not outrageously expensive like most Dumbo spots
This spot compared to the other healthy food places is def less salty (because it won’t be healthy food if there’s too much sodium 🧂). The bowls are delish, I would have given it 5 stars ⭐️ if only the veggies were less salty, could use salt reduction to ensure the health factor of the meal. New York restaurants have a salt problem this is why we turn to healthy spots like this one!

I would say this is a solid 3.5 stars. Service is fast, food is edible, but not something I would crave or after eating felt satiated. I’m vegetarian so I got the veggie bowl which was kale, broccoli, picked veggies and sweet potatoes with quinoa. There was too much quinoa in relation to veggies. I did eat everything and left most of the quinoa. Veggies tasted ok and everything was seasoned well. If you are in a pinch and need a fast healty-ish lunch, I think this place could work. I have been here twice in the year and a half I have lived in DUMBO.
Super great to have a restaurant with clear gluten free labels, and to have certainty its allergen free. The food was ok, and could use a little more flavors. Portion sizes are large and it hit the spot for feeling full and satisfied, and still had leftovers.
flew in to NY to try Springbone. I tried the bone broth hot chocolate & was disappointed. The texture was too slimy, not excited on the taste, and the false advertisement on the marshmallows. I love healthy food and came a long way. First and last. I’ll probably try another location in the future.

bowls were pretty good overall, though the rice had some hard bits and honestly wasn’t great. kind of ironic, since the bone broth rice was what i was most excited about - it’s supposed to set the bowl apart, but it ended up being the worst part. staff could’ve been friendlier. that said, i really liked the broccoli - simple and slightly burnt, just the way i like it lol. my bowl came out to around $19. buy again? unlikely.
Honestly I have not tasted the food yet but the service was horrible for it being my FIRST time ever! I live 500 ft away in the neighborhood. Needed soup because I’m super sick. I DoorDash the order and pick it up. I had NO IDEA that they do not help you at the counter you can go and pick it up. I felt like the person behind the counter was rude. I’m not a DoorDash driver so I don’t know I’m suppose to search through names. I’m super sick and this really irritated me being it was my first experience. I won’t be coming back.

I love the food here, but I’ve now recently had two consecutive terrible delivery experiences. No one answering the phone and food was over two hours delayed. We tried to order a third time and just had to cancel as the delivery ETA continued to be pushed out. We’re usually extremely understanding and sympathetic to restaurants during peak hours having worked in the service industry, but this is such shameful and disappointing customer service.

Worst money I’ve spent in a while - ordered the Tofu Noodle Bowl (vermicelli noodles, broccoli, kimchi, chili tofu) which completely lacked any flavor. It was dry and tasted anything but fresh. The portion was also very small considering I paid over $15 ($14.35 + tax) for this bowl. Wouldn’t eat there again.

I ordered an XL Liquid Gold for delivery today, ORDER #21264576, and it has the taste of a watered down immunity broth. I called the store 3 times to rectify, however, no one answered and a voicemail box isn't said up which says a lot about the quality of the food being served and customer services. Not the greatest location at all.
