Thai Chili Basil - Melrose

Good. Great food. Love the people there. Very friendly and welcoming.

It's fine, maybe 3 and a half. I think it is not as high quality as some of the places around here and you know it's a take out place, not a fancy sit down restaurant. I think it would be ideal for hanging around with some folks, drinking a couple of beers and watching sports or something. The prices are great, the portions are great, the food, well it's good not great. I still reccomend and it is a great addition to Melrose long term. The tempura (and there is a lot of it) seems to be more like you would get for the breading in a sweet and sour recipe at a standard Chinese American storefront. I do like that you can choose the spiciness. The price to quality ratio is such that it gets the four, but there is higher quality thai food in the area if you are introducing someone for the first time. Let me add that the woman that worked there was friendly as hell and I showed up early and she apologized for it not being ready like she was a magician or something.

Delicious! The staples are great, noodles, sauces (I recommend the spicy basil dish Fancy Tofu), and there’s also a mix and match menu so you can create your own signature dish. It also nice that the location is so easy for pickup. Day is busier, but by dinner you can usually pull right up or park right across the street at the train station. Service: Take out Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $20–30

My go-to restaurant. I've ordered delivery more times than I can count. Delicious food. Never disappoints.

Thai Chili Basil makes the best Thai food in the area. The portions are good, and the prices are fair. I like that you can order delivery directly on their own website. They deliver fast. Most of the time, my orders have arrived 15-20 minutes earlier than predicted. Some favorite dishes: drunken noodle, chicken noodle soup, red curry. They will make a dish as spicy (or not spicy) as you like.
