Why Dine at Chilli & Basil Thai Restaurant
Authentic Thai recipes, generous portions, and family hospitality in Molendinar.
Authentic, Balanced Thai Flavours
Dishes are crafted with balanced seasonings and authentic preparations, from delicate Tom Kha soup to classic curries and rich grilled pork.
It was creamy and perfectly balanced, with no sour edge, just elegant richness and harmony in every spoonful.
Paula Susana Pancha Generous Portions and Value
Meals arrive in generous serving sizes that provide substantial value, whether dining in or ordering hearty multi-meal takeaway dishes.
Serving sizes are great. Like a lot of places, I often feel like the price might be too high, but then I get 3 solid meals out of an order that spans 2-3 days so it's justifiable for what you get.

While searching for a place to eat at 8:30pm at night was not ideal, walking into this place felt like home.
