At Basil Garden, the magic lies in their curry dishes. Diners rave about the silky richness of the Red Curry, offering a choice of meat complemented by coconut milk, bamboo shoots, and fresh basil leaves – all for just US$17.95.

“ Had a wonderful time and awesome food at the suggestion of our foodie friends. Some of the best Tasty Thai food I've had in 20 years! We ordered 4 different dishes and they were all amazingly delicious. Our friends had a conversation on a previous visit and learned about ordering Thai style at half power. If you love spicy it's a whole new level from the 1-5 on the menu. I will definitely come back on my next visit to the area to try some more. Looking forward to my leftovers tomorrow. ”
“ Excellent food. So authentic. The best Pad Thai I had in Florida so far. The owner and cook is half Thai and half Guatemalan. He is nice and friendly. My hubby and I really enjoyed his cooking. ”
“ Hidden Gem for Authentic Thai Cuisine! I’ve passed by this little Thai restaurant in Stuart, FL, for years but never dared to go inside because the exterior looked a bit unkempt. I finally decided to give it a try, and I’m so glad I did! My husband and I both enjoyed our meals—he ordered the chicken Pad Thai with a Thai iced tea, and I had the beef red curry. The flavors were delicious and authentic. The beef curry was a bit sweeter than I expected, but it was still good enough for a return visit. Don’t let the outside fool you—this place has been around for decades for a reason. We’ll definitely be back! ”
“ Friendly staff. We asked for 4 chili, should have done 5. Not as spicy as Thailand :) Can't wait to go back and try other curry dishes. A little less on sauce than we are used to. ”
“ This is one of my boys favorite spots! Great food every single time! Very consistent...go to spot! Steamed chicken dumpling appetizers delicious ”
“ It was my first time going with my husband. We have been here for 5 years and never tried this place and it did not disappoint! The food was very delicious, the service was friendly and at a great price point. If you like Thai food bring your family or as a quick date night. It's an establishment that has been around for a while but the food was very delicious. ”
“ So, the exterior leaves something to be desired and may even deter some, but the interior is just fine. The food was delicious with the spice level just right as requested, which is so important with Thai. Had the chicken with ginger sauce and chicken with cashew sauce, both with brown rice. Very fresh veggies and well spiced sauces. Both lunch entrees were priced under 10, which is a rare find anymore. Friendly and prompt service. Will definitely return. ”
“ The place could use a little sprucing up but the food and waiter are amazing. We love coming here for a casual date night or just a random weeknight dinner. The hours are probably my favorite. They are open till 9pm!!!! The Thai tea is to die for and you can make it vegan! ”
