Overall, for the price, the food should have been better. Haven't dined in, so couldn't tell you about the experience. But I would not recommend this place for takeout. In 2023, the rice paper wraps was $15, which is ridiculously high, but does not taste better than your average rice paper wrap. The peanut sauce needs to have more umami saltiness to flavour the dish. A lot of random vegetables like zucchini & bell peppers were added to dishes where they do not belong, like pad sew ew. It made the dish confusing to eat, Americanized & not authentic. The amount of beef in that pad sew ew was minimal, please add more meat in your dishes.View more

I've been going to this restaurant for a few years except during the pandemic. The food is always delicious. Had the panang curry with jasmine rice. It was delicious. Portion size is great. Atmosphere is lovely & feels authentic.View more

Expensive, small portions, curry was lacking ingredients & the rice portions were really small. 6 small chicken dumplings were $18 & a tall can of beer was $13. Food was fine but for the cost wasn't worth it. 2 entrees, 2 tiny rice bowls, 6 dumplings & a tall can of beer came to $100 including tip. The restaurant is fine but nothing amazing.View more

Been to the restaurant before liked the service & atmosphere well enough, but order fried rice tonight on uber eats & it was disappointing. The rice was way over cooked & lumpy, both in the fried rice & the steamed rice. It made the whole meal unenjoyable. For the prices they charge they should at least cook the rice correctly.View more

The ambiance was cozy & inviting, making it the perfect spot for a great meal. I highly recommend trying their Pad Thai & Green Curry – they were absolutely mouthwatering. Sweet Basil is now my go-to place for authentic Thai cuisine in Ottawa. Can’t wait to come back!View more

Sweet Basil Thai never disappoints! This restaurant consistently serves up some of the best Thai food in Ottawa. The dishes are prepared with fresh ingredients & bursting with flavor. Whether you're a fan of spicy curries or prefer milder options, they have something for everyone. The service is top-notch, & the cozy atmosphere makes it perfect for a date night or dinner with friends. I keep coming back for their Tom Yum soup – it's a must-try! I highly recommend Sweet Basil Thai for an authentic Thai dining experience.View more

I can't say enough good things about Sweet Basil Thai! The food here is consistently outstanding. Every dish I've tried has been packed with authentic Thai flavors & made to perfection. The staff is incredibly welcoming & attentive, making you feel right at home. Whether you're a spice lover or prefer milder options, their menu caters to all tastes. Don't miss out on their Mango Sticky Rice for dessert – it's a sweet treat that's hard to resist. Sweet Basil Thai is my go-to spot for Thai cuisine in Ottawa, & I'm always looking forward to my next visit!View more
