Becoming a regular weekly Lunch at this family restaurant. Bringing friends as well, all impressed with the food and lovely atmosphere / service. Green Thai King Prawn Curry & Spring Rolls or Massaman I love. Have eaten our way through the Menu and all the dishes are excellent. Always book ahead as it is getting popular now as people discover this place.

What an amazing place! The food was literally the best Thai food I have ever tasted!! Well worth the hour and a half drive!! Will one million percent be visiting again and again and again. Humble little place on a busy street you wouldn’t expect, but the food was insane, the service was fantastic, clean, fresh, relaxing atmosphere. Can’t wait to come back and try more from the menu!

The food was delicious. But it’s not just about the food. It took 3 attempts to get some water for the table - there was a sense of reluctance - we had purchased drinks, but wanted water as well - we got it eventually, but why was it so difficult! It would really have impressed me to get a jug of iced water with lemon! There was a (really cute) child running around and causing chaos - I’m assuming she belonged to the owner - I love kids, but it’s not what you want when you’re having a grown up meal with your family. Oh! And the ‘chips’ were fries…… like McDonald’s - yuk We probably won’t be back

Came to Thai Basil for a bit of lunch with the family. A warm welcome as soon as we walked in from SU, who sat us down by the window and took our drinks order while we browsed the menu. We order a variety of dishes( sweet and sour chicken. Pad Thai prawn red curry chicken) amongst others. Every dish was amazing. Great flavour and freshly made. Really well priced too. Amazing service and food. Will definitely be back

Food was fine. Small portions especially for the high price even with 10% off for collection. Got food home and was missing the rice we ordered! So was overcharged by twice as much as the discount. Instead were given some ‘free’ soggy prawn crackers. Lost a potential regular local customer at the first attempt.

We drove pass by and thought we might give it a try and noticed they've changed hand. Variety of choices in mains and staters. We went for a mixed starter and panaeng curry and pad thai chicken for mains. The taste of all of them were as nice as the presentation. Overall we will go back for sure.

Lovely food as always! We went here at the weekend with the kids. It was Saturday night and we hadn’t booked. Got a table straight away although lots of other diners already in too, even though we had gone early. We’d got a medley of different dishes for the kids to share as they’re both fussy eaters, they enjoyed it all. We had veg Massaman and Red Thai with king prawns, both were fresh and delicious. We love this place and try to support it as much as we can given it’s local to us and the food, authentic.

We haven’t ordered a takeaway for quite a long time but have always enjoyed all our meals from here. We ordered to take away…great starters.

Went in as our usual restaurant was shut, so glad we tried here! As soon as you go in you are welcomed with the usual dimly lit Thai restaurant vibe, nice scented candle in the entrance porch area. Ok, the decor could do with updating but it's clean, tidy and does the job. Pretty standard menu with a few extra specials thrown in, one of which I tried. C9 with king prawns. Basically a Thai red curry but spicier and had kafir lime leaves in, was absolutely beautiful. The king prawns were so big I think they should be renamed emporer prawns AND they were cooked perfectly. I was so stuffed but couldn't stop eating it haha! I always choose coconut rice if available and this was one of the best I've ever had. It's usually sticky and quite sweet but this fell apart like plain jasmine rice, tasted of coconut without being overpowering and wasn't sweet at all. We had the vegetable mixed platter (shared) to start, all of which were cooked perfectly and the satay sauce had a nice kick to it. The staff were attentive without being 'in your face' and were very helpful. Over the 2.5hrs we were there, good was served quickly and we never felt like we were out staying our welcome. Restaurant was emptying at around 8.30pm and we were having a much needed catch up. Perfect place and brilliant food, very good value for money. Definitely going to eat here again at some point.

I visited with friends in January 2022 after recommendations from some local people. We were a group of 4, the food was absolutely outstanding. I travel for work a lot and have dined at some really special Asian Restaurants in London and I have to say, this was on par. We ordered the beef black bean, dumplings, a weeping tiger dish and a firecracker seafood dish. Absolutely outstanding and the presentation was very satisfying. It was a lady serving us and she was friendly and polite. Reasonably priced. Will be visiting again in the next few weeks. I wasn’t aware of the restaurant, I don’t think they have a huge social media presence so if It wasn’t recommended to me I wouldn’t have known about it. Highly highly recommend! The building could do with a bit of a spruce up but don’t be put off, the food is what it’s about and it definitely exceeds!

We were staying at the nearby hollins hall hotel and struggled to find somewhere to eat on a Friday night in both Guiseley and Ottley. After turning back to go and eat in the hotel we spotted this just off the main rd and pulled in almost out of desperation! To be honest it looked a bit tacky from the outside but we were hungry and like Thai food so thought we’d give it a go! What a lovely surprise - wonderful food, excellent service and very reasonable. Don’t be put off by the outside - the food was delicious and we enjoyed a variety of starters to share which were beautifully presented. We chose the chicken yellow curry and the beef in oyster sauce for mains and we were not disappointed. Would thoroughly recommend! Staff were attentive but discreet and the bill was a nice surprise! Would thoroughly recommend.

We arrived fairly early and the place was deserted but gradually got busier. Extensive menu. My seafood dish was slightly disappointing in that the seafood itself had obviously been re-heated and was therefore a bit dry. The accompanying rice and veg were fine. The veg carved into flowers looked nice on the plate but I didn't see anyone eat them. The waiter and waitress who served us were very efficient. We have been before as it's local to us and we've never had a bad meal.

We ate here early on a Sunday at 5 p.m. There were no other customers for quite a while, but then it started getting busier. The waiters were very attentive. I ordered the Pad Thai, which was nice; not the best nor the worst Pad Thai I have ever had. My companions were happy with their meals. The tea came in very ornate pots and was good. If I had a very small niggle it would be that the food was brought to us with a couple of minutes in-between each person's dish, rather than all together. Most of the main courses are priced at £8.50, £9.50 or £10.50, with just a few at £13.00. Starters are from £5.25. They also do Set Menus for a minimum of 2 people (mixed starters and a main for around £18.)

We both had the superb Tom Kha soup, I had seafood with masses of prawn and muscles and my wife had the mushroom version, the taste is to die for, absolutely exquisite. For the main dishes she had Thai Green curry and I had a red one (can't recall the name), with sticky rice and egg fried noodles as side dishes, again, cooked to perfection.

Feel terrible writing an awful review because the staff were lovely. The food was awful. It was a very expensive way of disguising a mediocre Chinese take-away as Thai. Akin to taking a mallet to a Yorkshire Pudding and calling it a 'crepe'. Thai food should have a lively fresh taste. This was like the bottom of a pond had been dredged, corn flour added and chillies thrown in to disguise the taste. I'm not even going to give this place a second try. It did have a nice car park though....

We haven't eaten here for a while and went back on Saturday night, I have to say the food is possibly the best Thai food we have had in all our visits to numerous Thai restaurants.We had fishcakes, spare ribs and Ton Kha soup (seafood), to start, the flavours, specially the soup were fantastic, main courses were Thai Green curry (chicken) and Massaman Chicken, again both dishes were so tasty.The staff are really attentive and nothing is too much trouble, we went at 9.00 Sat evening and couldn't believe how empty the place was, with such superb food, great staff and reasonable price's it should be full every night....try it, you'll love it

Arrived with 8 friends looking forward to an excellent evening of dining . Main meal did not arrive for 1.5 hours it was as if they forgot who came in first, definatley a lack of staff . The curry was watery like soup. I would rate this restaurant 2 out of 10 . It was like no one was bothered . I had good company with friends but will not be returning there are far too many abetter restaurants

We went to this restaurant today as we fancied some Thai food. Was very disappointed, ordered a Thai salad and beef dishes, both was too salty, asked them to do it again they only put some more lemon juice to reduce the salt but was still salty. Very disappointed!!!!!

So sorry, we have been a few times before and the food has been great. We were walking to the white cross and saw your early bird menu offer so came to you instead. Just after 5pm on Sunday, ordered pork toast and chicken spicy salad. You accidentally brought out fish cakes but offered them free. However the chicken salad had a long black hair in it, then the pork toast came out.. burnt outside and raw pork inside. Cancelled order and offered to pay for starters and drinks, charged £5.10, gave £10 and got £4.10 change. Had a bad experience this time, i hope you can take this as constructive criticism.

We came here on Saturday evening and as this was our first visit we did not know what to expect. We where greeted by staff as we came in the door. Seated, menu given and came shortly after for drink order. We had a lovely bottle of Zinfandel Rose and husband had his beer. We chose the set menu for three. When our food arrived it was lovely piping hot and very tasty. We had a rest between courses then our mains arrived again piping hot and delicious flavours. One sweet was ordered and we will definitely be back. Staff are a credit attentive but not intrusive.

This place is ok but nothing amazing. Fish cake starter was nice but spring rolls pretty tasteless. Green curry and massaman were both fine but not as nice as Lana Thai (if that's even open anymore?!) or sukothai in Leeds or Harrogate.

We went to the Thai Basil for an early dinner; although it is meant to have an 'early bird' menu, we never saw it, but were happy to order from the main menu. This is the second time we have visited this restaurant in recent months and the food remains very good. We had spring rolls and Toong Tong as starters and duck as main course, which were very good, the main course being quite substantial. Our friends had seafood and were equally satisfied. The list of desserts was very limited and we decided to give it a miss, and the espresso one of us ordered was a disappointing watery coffee. On the whole, a good place for dinner.

I ordered a take out meal from Thai Basil consisting of two staters, mains with rice and noodles on the side. It was OK, but forgettable. The cost was over 30 quid and the portions were small. A bit bland for the money. I will stick to Saffron Desi in future or try one of the cheaper Thai's in Otley. The food was prepared quickly though and the staff were lovely. I hope it thrives, but I think they need to ratchet down their takeaway prices to attract local customers.

Good service and atmosphere. Food was OK, but quite forgettable. Not the most authentic Thai ingredients used, can't remember button mushrooms and cherry tomatoes on my Thailand travels.It's not a bad place and if you are not Thai or a Thai food connoisseur then you can still enjoy your evening.

We went for a nice meal, not really any occasion but just fancied Thai food. All the food was delicious however the prices compared with Chaopraya in Leeds, a high end Thai restaurant, Other than that a great setting with nice food.

We decided to visit on a whim and we weren't sure what to expect - we'd not heard much about it. I can't understand why?! I will definitely be raving about this place, we had really delicious, beautifully cooked Thai food. It all seemed so authentic - such a good find! Looking forward to the next visit to try more of their dishes!

Very good Thai food in a convenient location. Friendly, attentive staff. Good value for money. The building itself could really do with a refurb, but that does not detract from the quality of the food.

Some of the nicest Thai food we have had. The staff were nice although slightly rushed off their feet because of how busy they were! We'll definitely be back.

Tried this Thai restaurant for the first time midweek and found it was quite popular. Chose one of the many fixed price menus on offer as it included wine and tea/coffee. There was plenty of both the mixed starters and main courses which included a portion of rice each. Will certainly visit again and perhaps pick dishes from the menu to share so trying different dishes.

Service was pretty poor. Had to ask to order drinks and even then they arrived after the starters had been served. No pleasantries or real customer service offered by either of the staff. Very Disappointing. Food however was delicious and the presentation was lovely.

Love the atmosphere and the staff but there are just so many better thai food places in Leeds. Wanted to be more adventurous and tried the baby crab salad and gosh, really regretted it. It was slightly fishy and just didn't taste fresh at all. Mamamee was quite good but I felt like there was too much seafood (I know, usually I wouldn't complain but it just wasn't very pleasant). Braised duck was the nicest but the braising liquid was so thin and sweet, didn't really taste like braising liquid. I think you will be better off ordering their noodle dishes like pad thai or their steamed sea bass.

Food was ok but the service was terrible honestly. We had a reservation but waited in the doorway for 20-30 minutes just to get a table abd although we were there during the happy hour, because we didn't place the order before the happy hour ended, they didn't want to give us the Happy Hour offer. It's disappointing because the reason why we couldn't place the order quicker is exactly their poor table management. I won't rush back for sure!
