I've ordered from Holy Basil many times. So I had some vivid dreams after eating their food....kind of fun...chalked it up to the msg. But I thought their food was ok...so there was an occasion going their with friends when the soup was inedible...but mistakes happen. This time it was delivery. Have done it many times. The Pad-sea ew was ok....best thing we ordered, although the chicken was a bit tough and too large and a wee bit dry. The red curry with beef....the curry was ok but the beef was pretty nasty....none of us ate it....just didn't taste good. The spring rolls were a bit soggy from oil but tasted ok. The green papaya salad was ok but tasted like it had been soaking in it's own juices and sitting around for one hour too long. Price for the neighborhood is ok but with this many misses, don't think I'll be ordering from them again anytime soon.

The food was poor and not authentic. Nothing was good. The service took forever and the dishes were small and way too sweet. The lighting was desperate and faux romantic. Not recommended.

This restaurant has excellent food. The presentation at the table is beautiful. Eating in is way better than takeout but takeout in a close second! I especially recommend the Pad Kratiem and the Sea bass. Oh, the steamed spring rolls, too. And the curry... mmm. Definitely order from here!

Just tried this place based on the reviews, and unfortunately I cannot reccomend this place. The food was bland, the chicken was dry and the tom kha didn't taste right (and had no vegetables in it). I ordered the chicken pad sew ew and the chicken tom kha, and was dissapointed with both. Skip this place. (Also delivery took 45 minutes...)

Had another great meal at Holy Basil! The food is delicious and presented very nicely. The seafood curry was nicely seasoned.The wine list is brief but very reasonably priced. Our party of 4 had a great time. If you're on the east side, this is the place to go!

I'm not from NYC but this restaurant was recommended from a local. I find good Thai food hard to fine and I have to say this was the best Pad Thai I've ever tasted. My friend has Kea Moi and loved her meal as well. Service was good. The wait staff was friendly and eager. The waiter did not bother with us much to see if we needed anything while eating, but that is because we had great food and our water was refilled often. I got a HUGE Mango Margarita and shared it with my friend. Spring rolls and plum sauce was also great! I could use a little more lighting, but I think the atmosphere was overall fabulous! I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who loves Thai food or wants to try something new!

Great food, but thank god I'm on a diet b/c they didn't even fill the take out container full and it wasn't cheap. I'd never order take out from here again.
