Reviews Summary

Diners frequently praise Hot Basil Thai Kitchen for its authentic and delicious Thai cuisine, with generous portion sizes and friendly, attentive service. However, some reviews mention a decline in quality or authenticity since new management, and there's a notable absence of alcohol service, which can be a drawback for some patrons.

"My husband and I have loved coming here for a little date night or lunch date lately. The food is so authentic and delicious. The restaurant has new management and we were very impressed. The service is fast, clean, fun environment and portion sizes are big. The owners and waitresses are so friendly and personable. They went out of their way to make sure everything was perfect and to our liking. We ordered the phad thai and red curry. The owners were so friendly and even let me try a special dessert he was trying out with ice cream and thai iced tea and whipped cream for free! We were super impressed with the food and customer service. We will definitely be coming back as regulars."

"Went for some dine in dinner. Decent Thai food in Bella terra mukilteo. The usual Thai fair nothing crazy on the menu, 1-5 star spice options. 3☆ was spicy but not crazy. Most dishes come with tofu, beef, or chicken options. Wasn't busy when I was there for a Thursday dinner. Would recommend if in the area and craving thai."

Neil Bailey

"NO FOOD SAFETY RATING POSTED. (Illegal)
This place has really taken a hit on its quality of food since the change in ownership/management. When the food came out there was an overwhelming smell that was quite alarming.
The fried rice was almost as if it was frozen prepackaged fried rice with boiled chicken added to it. Missing the veggies that the menu had listed, and with the large price increase they have induced one would think that would add to your experience. Fortunate to have experienced the original Thai Rama and will not be returning to the sorry excuse that isn't worth being in it's shadows."
