Le Basil is consistently high quality food and excellent service. This is one of my local favorites!

It didn't seem too crowded for a Saturday night but they were short staffed(as is most places these days) but they did their best to make sure we were taken care of with friendly smiles. You can't go wrong with anything you order.

When I was still eating someone else came and asked if they had the lunch special and waiter said no, it was only on weekends, another man came out and told that Person theycould do the lunch special , but when it came time for me to pay, I paid full price and wasn?t given the lunch special like theperson that came 20 mins after did. Lol I was shook . I guess they just pick and choose who can get it? oh well, definitelyexpected a little more for the price. Was kinda left to myself while everyone else was being attended to. Wasn?t offered waterand my food came out before the Thai tea ever came. Thai tea was just thrown together. Paid $26.05 for pad Thai and a Thai tea.Definitely was not worth it. Especially when the person that came after me was given the lunch special price. a little upsettingbut it?s fine.

I arrived around 2 PM, and while I was still eating, another customer came in asking about the lunch special. The waiter initially said it was only available on weekends, but then another staff member informed him that they could have the lunch special. When it was time for me to pay, I was charged full price for my meal, while the person who arrived 20 minutes after me got the lunch special. I was quite surprised! It seemed like they were picking and choosing who could get it. I expected more for the price. I felt somewhat neglected while everyone else was being taken care of, and I wasn't offered water. My food arrived before my Thai tea, which felt slapdash. I paid $26.05 for pad Thai and the Thai tea, and it definitely wasn’t worth it, especially seeing that the person who came after me paid a lower price for the lunch special. It was a bit disappointing, but I’ll move on.
