Sweet Basil Thai Cuisine

"A special place for me. Have been eating here since I discovered it in 2007 when I lived in norman. I come to norman from ardmore usually once a month and stop back in frequently. Has always been a fantastic place. From the outside its very quaint but there is a culinary experience taking place inside every day. Started bringing my wife here in 2016. Now it has become our special occasion place for new years or anniversary. Although sometimes I randomly drive an hour just to bring some back home! Thank you sweet basil for your excellence year after year. You are more than a restaurant to this Oklahoman.!"

"The best Thai food in Norman, hands down!!! The atmosphere is awesome and very relaxing! The staff is always very knowledgeable and attentive and the owner is a fantastic human being! Everyone should support this business!!"

"My Top Pick for Thai Cuisine in Norman! Having explored all the Thai dining options in Norman, I can confidently say that none match the culinary excellence of this gem. The standout dish? The Chicken Pad Thai – it’s unrivaled in taste and quality across Norman. What sets this restaurant apart is its focused menu. They don’t spread themselves thin trying to offer everything. Instead, they excel in what they do offer, ensuring a consistently delightful experience. A tip for those on the go: the service here is impressively fast! If you’re short on time, a phone order will have your meal ready in just 5 minutes. Highly recommended for both the food and the efficiency!"

"Awesome atmosphere! Great smells and an authentic environment. Service was good, food came out quick! Parking is tricky with it being on Main Street, come with extra time to walk if need be. Not my favorite Thai spot, but it’s good and a cool spot if you’re in the area. Fried chicken rolls were good, the tempura was a little weird… The plates were presented nicely. Could use a bigger portion for the price… Staff was very kind, we got caught up talking and stayed a little after they closed. They were very polite and worked with us lol"

"For the prices of the food here, you would expect quality over quantity. But the restaurant lacked in both. The food was abysmal. We ordered panang, pad Thai, and the meat salad (Larb). The panang was overpowered by the coconut juice and was too thick for my tasting. The pad Thai, a simple and signature dish for every restaurant was much too greasy and lacked the authentic taste. The Larb in particular was bland and tasted like they boiled the meat and threw it on top of the salad. It was so distasteful we couldn’t even box it to go. The only credit it deserves is the presentation. The food came out looking great! We expected the service to overcompensate the quality of the food but we were wrong again. With only 2-3 tables within the restaurant, our appetizers took over 20 minutes to come. The waitress was nice but was inattentive. The restaurant looked nice inside and outside but with the prices and the quality of the food, we most likely will not be returning."
