A welcoming environment for the familiar pleasures of Thai cuisine. The staff is friendly, and the dishes are made with quality ingredients and thoughtful attention to detail. The menu features the expected lineup of curries, stir fries and fried-rice dishes.

Much of the action has since moved from the city proper into the county, but since it opened in early 2008, Basil Spice has given the South Grand business strip a new vibrancy. The preparations are meticulous, the flavors bright, the spice -- if you prefer -- cranked up to a sweat-inducing five stars. The classic Thai curries and pad noodle dishes are... More »
