I order the Pad-Thai with chicken every time and it's absolutely delicious! The chicken is cooked perfectly, with no fatty pieces, and the entire dish is packed with flavor! The servers are also very sweet and they bring out the food pretty quick! read more

This place is horrible. I've been driving by for years and have always wanted to try it since I love Thai food. My mom and I were running errands and decided to try it. The place was dead. There was one other couple in there. The first thing I noticed was the sad, outdated, stereotypical decor. We ordered chicken satay, Pad Thai, and I ordered a Thai iced tea. The chicken satay had no flavor, the Pad Thai was cold, the noodles mushy, and there was zero flavor. The peanuts were stale. The ice tea was terrible. The service was slow, for us anyway. Apparently the couple that was there were regulars and their service was quick. Another gentleman came in after us, also a regular, and has his food before us. Needless to say, I will never come back here. read more

Sweet Basil Thai Cuisine - Shrimp Pad Thai - Thai Near Me - Chattanooga, Tennessee

We came here on a Saturday night and enjoyed our dinner here. Service was faster than I anticipated, and our server was sweet and friendly. The restaurant has a cute date night feel. I ordered the TK roll and Alaska roll. My sushi was delicious. The fish quality was pretty good, and the vegetables tasted fresh. At first looking at the sushi, I thought the portion size was small. But the amount of fish that's in the TK Roll was plentiful. The salmon on top of the roll was a pretty large piece. The sweet chili sauce was just great. And overall, the roll was so well balanced. Each part complemented each other so well. My stomach is growling just from looking back at the pictures and writing it about it haha. And the mango sticky rice! The mango was so fresh and juicy. And the sticky rice had the perfect sweetness level. I wish they gave more sticky rice in proportion to the mango because there was much more mango compared to the rice. That's my only qualm with our dinner. For all the dishes though, food presentation was beautiful. When our server set our plates down, I was so impressed. I'm pretty sure I said "wow" every time she brought something over lol. We had a great experience and a fun girls night. I would definitely come back again, especially for the sushi. It's a solid 4.5/5 for me. read more

Food was very bland. Chicken was tasteless. Noodle dish was bland as well. Service was good., friendly server. Ambiance was ok.

So hard to find really good Thai around here. Finally found it! Service was awesome. Mango Sticky rice was fantastic! Such a friendly, efficient group of people - also had Thai Ice Tea. Dinner portions aren't much more in price and you can take home a lot of food. Definitely becoming a regular here. read more

Food is always great. Service is quick and friendly. We have been fans for years. Best Thai in Chattanooga.

Our family has been dining at Sweet Basil since my daughter was a toddler. She is now 33 years old and we still consider Sweet Basil the best Thai restaurant we have ever visited anywhere. The spring rolls are to die for as is the Jumbo Shrimp Masaman. Many different choices including a sushi menu. read more

Love this place! Great food and a pleasant staff. I often go for lunch and always get the "lunch box." A quiet, comfortable place to be.

I've always wanted to get back to Sweet Basil. The first time I dined there was with a large group on a day when the restaurant was especially busy. Yesterday my wife and I dined there and it was more peaceful so I could concentrate. The servers were courteous and attentive. There was a slight mixup on the order for appetizers, but it was quickly corrected. The vegetable entree we ordered was warm and flavorful. We would have appreciated more chunks of tofu with our vegetables, but enjoyed the rich ginger. The price was right for the order we placed so don't worry about a surprise when the check comes along. Overall, it was time well spent. read more

We are regulars. The food is top notch and they make you feel at home. Our go-to for dinner when we don't want to cook!

We love the soups, the fresh rolls, the Rama and the Pad Thai the most. We always have excellent food and great service here!

I went with a friend to try out. There is a parking lot so that is no issue. Was seated quickly. It was a nice crowd of people so in my mind the food must be pretty good. I got my usually Thai Basil chicken and a Thai tea. I enjoyed the main dish. It was tasty and filling. I was able to take a little home with me. The Thai tea was okay. I like strong tea and this wasn't very strong. Not bad though. I would definitely return and try out other menu items. The staff was good and overall a good experience. read more

Food was amazing. We ate vegetarian and one of the best tasting Thai food so far. My son loved the tofu veg soup.

Food was good. Service was good. The dining area was clean and interesting atmosphere. The bathroom was clean. Overall, a pleasant dining experience. read more

I really loved everything about this place. It's about as nice and professional as you can get while still having the charm and authenticity of a family restaurant. Everything I tried was good, but I especially loved the fresh basil rolls. Next time I'm in Chattanooga I'll be sure to stop by here again. read more

Ordered a few items. Soup, spring rolls, sushi, spicy green curry and Pad-kee-mao plates. The soups(miso and tofu soup) were both good. Hit the spot. Spring rolls were only 2 and a little over done but not bad. The sushi rolls were spicy salmon, Philly and smokey mountain rolls. They were all OK. Thank goodness for the Wasabi and ginger. Finally the main entree. Spicy Green curry chicken was good. Nice spice and tons of green peppers. The Pad Kee Mao was not so good. It sounded better than it was. Kinda bland. We doctored it up and still was mehhh. My overall call on this place was, OK. Not great but just OK. Maybe I'm just use to better Thai food for that price and quality. Ok in a pinch but I will try some other place next time. I have it 4 stars because it's hard after covid and they tried. read more

Good Food, Lots Of Seating, Friendly Staff We found this place on Yelp of course and decided to make a pilgrimage to investigate this house of Thai Food Feeding... Upon our arrival we were greeted and seated and set upon our path of discerning which items we would endeavor to explore in this visit. I believe we had the pad Thai and the pad kee mao both with chicken. I say believe since I waited a bit to compete my review and only see my one picture to remind me of the dishes. I like this place, I only wish the portions were slightly larger since I am a 225 pound man with a 120 pound Asian wife who eats more than me! Lol... All in all I would recommend this place to others. read more

Sweet Basil Thai Cuisine - Pad-Kee-Mao Chicken - Thai Near Me - Chattanooga, Tennessee

Worst. Horrible food n service. I would never come nor suggest anyone to go. I am vegan n told them specifically and no fish no fish sauce no eggs. N we still all of that in our plate. I would not even give 1 star but im forced to it. I said I want more cream than the veggies. N my plate barely had 5 oz of cream or gravy and rest was packed with veggies. They could've have done better with service too read more

I tried chicken fried rice to go. I was given good portion and decent taste. The prices are also decent.

Clean and comfortable, with a Pokestop (gym) that is accessible while you're dining. Duck with Red Curry: Very tender duck, sliced perfectly, with a tasty curry sauce. The pineapple chunks in the sauce were especially delicious. Pad Thai: Noodles were cooked perfectly but I didn't like that it was a mixed protein pad thai, as opposed to being able to just choose my own (tofu preferably). The shrimp were bland. Tom Kha: soup was delicious, so aromatic and flavorful. Creamy coconut and lime flavor, thinly sliced chicken, and the exact right amount of chili oil. read more

I basically got the "drunken noodles" I forgot the actual name. But I ordered an 3 spice level and I liked it! The tofu wasn't flavorful like the ones I've had at other places. But the noodles and veggies were good. The ambiance is very cultural and I loved the textile piece on the back wall. read more

Delicious! We have been coming here for years and they don't disappoint. The Pad Thai, Crispy Duck, Tom Yum Soup are our favorites. The fried banana roll dessert is also great. If you are looking for Thai food in the Chattanooga area, this is the only place to go, bar none. read more

Good tasting food. The 2. Tom-Kha-Kai Soup was excellent, as was the Panang Curry Chicken. The Cashew Chicken was good, as were the Sushi Rolls and the Miso Soup. The staff at Sweet Basil Thai was extremely nice, from order placement to pick-up. read more

The food is incredible and the service is unmatched. A great ambient space for gatherings and special occasion. The sushi is absolutely incredible and my personal favorite is the mango sushi. The owner and staff are super nice and welcoming, just a great time to be had every time you go there. read more

The food was excellent. My husband got Cashew Chicken and spring rolls. I had the Tom Yum hot pot. Both were so satisfying. The Atmosphere was serene. But what really touched my heart was the attention to detail and the service that was not just attentive but truly concerned with whether we had a good experience. read more

Don't ever order the crispy Basil duck! Only over fried skin you will get! I even told the server there was not meat and she smiled and said sorry! read more

This place has great Lunch specials! the Lunchbox special has soft tofu soup. crab sushi roll and sweet basil chicken. really good I love the atmosphere, it is very peaceful. The red curry is really good and if you are vegetarian you can get anything with Tofu or extra veggies. There is a very entertaining waiter super friendly and very helpful. I would definitely recommend. read more

I would say that there are two reasons to go here. The place feels like a private restaurant. There were two others tables seated when we arrived. They left and the place was literally here. The other reason to come is for the friendly service. They are very nice and attentive. The food, however, is not very good. My girlfriend and I were underwhelmed. The best part was the spring rolls. The food had very little flavor. We were both disappointed and wish we'd gone elsewhere. Sometimes Yelp can steer you the wrong way. read more

Worst tasting Thai food I've had. Service was good and staff was friendly. The pad se ew was terrible. I've had this dish MANY times at many restaurants and what I was served wasn't even close. Little flavor, more like chicken noodle soup without a lot of broth. The pad Thai was just ok. I do not recommend. read more

Amazing! I wish this restaurant was closer to my home because it is so good! Best Tom Yum soup I've had in a long time. So flavorful! Great ambiance as well. Very peaceful and relaxing inside. Very friendly staff too read more

I always get it to go and it's very yummy. Unsure of the service sitting inside but I'm sure it's good as well.

I would say I have a love/hate relationship with Thai food, but it's more like a love/heat relationship. As a teenager, my father exposed me to Thai chicken (without any warning). I remember sweat pouring down my forehead, my eyes tearing up, and drinking at least 5 glasses of water before we left. And I loved it! Spicy should be my last name (but alias, Snow will have to do). So while in one of the most amazing cities on the East Coast, I had deep hopes that this restaurant would be one of the most amazing Thai restaurants I had been to. And let me tell you, it was! Now I want to say up front that the location is off the beaten path and the exterior appears lacking. Do not let that cause any level of hesitation. Go there, now. I walked in to see a sushi bar to my left and plenty of seating to the right. You have to start with some appetizers, simply for the sake of trying as much food as possible per visit. I am a spring rolls guy so that was a given and I went for the Sweet Basil cups (they sounded good and obviously it's a house dish). Pad-Kee-Mao (spicy level on the menu=three peppers) were the main dish. And, that was it. I was stuffed after all of that. But I loved every bite. I do wish I had ordered the Thai tea or Thai coffee. I sampled someone else's tea and it was delicious. The team there are top notch and the presentation (like the carrot sliced to resemble a butterfly) is bar none. The classic rock in the form of muzak is entertaining when you recognize a tune, between focusing on the marvelous food in front of you. I cannot wait to go again soon. If you live nearby, go today...or tonight...or both. *Insider's Tip -They have a full Thai menu, plus sushi, soup, and drinks all day. Come by at lunch and treat yourself. read more

Besides being open on Christmas Day it was probably the worst Thai food I've ever ordered and just the fact that it was open and the server was very attentive is why i gave it an extra star. The pad Thai was way overcooked with incredibly soggy noodles. The masaman curry had raw tasting onions and after a few bites, i was no longer interested. We also tried the crispy duck and it was so fried and didn't even taste like duck. There was more fried stuff than the actual meat. Very disappointing meals but at least it was open read more
