Traditional & contemporary Thai dishes like curries in a stylish small-chain outpost.
Basil Thai is a locally owned restaurant known for flavorful Thai dishes (such as Red Curry Duck, Volcano Shrimp, Massaman Curry and of course, the best Pad Thai in Charlotte) and signature drinks (Pineapple Mojito is the most popular). The ambience in the dining room is perfect for lunch or dinner; the bar is peaceful and relaxing; the Chef’s Counter allows a unique vantage point into the kitchen where you see the flames of the woks, smell the aromas of freshly prepared dishes & hear the orchestrated clatter of all of the dishes being made in front of your very eyes! The patio is perfectly comfortable for great Charlotte weather and has a mix of sun and shade! Great food, excellent service, incredible value! Reservations recommended.
