Basil

We had a fantastic dinner at this restaurant, filled with amazing aromas and vibrant flavors. The pad see ew was perfectly balanced, with just the right mix of spice and it made the dish feel special and authentic. The service was warm and welcoming, which made the evening even better. We left feeling happy, full, and excited to come back again.

Went up to the bar because dining area was busy. I appreciate the hostess for letting us know that. But we order the different types of duck and dumplings. It was good just wish they didn’t drench it in sauce because it made the skin saggy.

I have been to Basil back in the day when they were in downtown Charleston, now they move to Mt. Pleasant with better space, view, and bar upstairs. The food we order was all amazing and scrumptious. Open the kitchen so you can see how food has been cooked. And wine and cocktails were superb as well. Highly recommend!

Absolutely fantastic experience from start to finish. Our reservation was confirmed promptly, and the staff inquired about our preferences for indoor or outdoor seating and any special occasions. Upon arrival, we were warmly greeted by the hostess and promptly seated. The venue is very spacious with a beautiful view over the lake, adding to the ambiance. The menu offered a wide variety of dishes, all of which were served and cleared in a timely manner. Our custom cake was stored in the refrigerator and later sliced and served perfectly. The food was delicious and the service professional. Highly recommend this place for any occasion!

Update: We have been back a couple times and enjoyed every visit. This is easily our new go to for Asian cuisine. Tonight we had sweet and sour with tofu. Unfortunately didn't get a photo of the appetizer but they were great as well. Came for restaurant week and was very impressed! Interesting cocktails and the food was amazing. Don't think you could go wrong with anything on the menu!

I come to Mt Pleasant to visit my daughter and every time I come, we order from Basil- Pad Thai, spring rolls, and Coconut soup. There is great deal of difference each time. Out of the last five times, only 2 were delicious. Tonight, the Pad Thai was not good and was very unflavorful . The chicken was bland and the sauce almost nonexistent. A high price for a poor tasting dish.

This is not your typical Thai restaurant! Upscale, great atmosphere and wonderful service. The happy hour is our favorite in Mt Pleasant and sitting on the back deck during sunset is such a lovely experience. Have not had a bad bite here, but our favorite fish is the pad see ew with beef. Thank you Basil for being our go-to Friday date night spot!
