Our favorite Thai place in Arlington when we lived there. The pad Thai and drunken noodles are BOMB.

Thai Basil Leaf, your food is good. I really do like it. Unfortunately, your service is not.
+ 1 for the food. Chicken Pad Thai and Panang Curry were pretty on point. Nice portions, not too salty. Level 3 spiciness was exactly what I envisioned - slight burn, but nothing to make you sweat.
+ 1 for the price. On average, $10-$13 per plate is expected. Portions are fairly big so you won't get hungry.
+ 1 for relative cleanliness. Restaurant is not big but it's pretty well kept. Since I only had water to sip on for about 2 hours before I got food, bathroom trips were a must. Nice to know they keep their bathrooms in decent shape.
- 2 for service. Oof. It took us 10 minutes to get anyone to notice us when we walked in, 1.5 hours to get our food after we ordered and another 15 minutes to get our checks. And it wasn't like other tables were getting food and we weren't. NOBODY got their food. So everyone coming in at 6 PM didn't leave until 8:30 PM or later. Nobody likes a hangry customer and nobody likes being a hangry customer. C'mon Thai Basil Leaf, get it together please. I really want to like you more! -

This is one of my favorite Thai spots. They have a nice ambiance & amazing lunch specials ($7) comes with a soup as an appetizer. I ordered the Pad Kee Mao with tofu and loved that it was cooked perfectly and full of flavor!

The food is great, but the service is very slow. The portion size could a little bigger for the curry. I would come back here but order it in advance so I don't have to wait forever.

I was highly satisfied with my lunch today! I have traveled to Thailand, so I am always on the hunt for the authentic flavors of Thai food. Chicken pad Thai has always been one of my favorites, but I think I have a new love for, pad kee mao or commonly called, "drunken noodles"!
Pad Kee mao is full of noodles, fresh veggies, basil, and meat. The ingredients are covered in a savory sauce that is slightly sweet. They make it with wide, flat noodles (drunken noodles) and lots of fresh/crunchy veggies. Veggies included: carrots, bell pepper, broccoli, tomato, and onion. They are generous with their basil hence the name of the restaurant. My dish had plenty of big pieces of fresh basil! I love the pop of flavor basil added to any dish! I also tried their pad Thai, which was just as enjoyable.
Everything was Super good. This place exceeded my expectations. I will be back for sure! Their desserts also sounded good, but I was too full for anything else, perhaps next time!
