The main highlight of this trip was this restaurant. I was eagerly looking forward to visiting after being recommended. I made a reservation for the terrace seat at 6:00, and it was already full when I arrived. It's so popular! Although I'm not very familiar with Thai cuisine, I was impressed by every dish! There is umami within the spiciness. They use aromatic vegetables, creating dishes with complex flavors. I aimed to try everything I wanted to eat without any regrets. The Yam Wun Sen was light. The soft shell crab stir-fried with black pepper was incredibly flavorful! The shrimp spring rolls were chewy. The chicken stir-fried with herbs had a wonderful basil flavor. The green curry had a unique taste with plenty of umami. The Thai beer was light and easy to drink, complementing the dishes well. What a wonderful restaurant! I will definitely come back when I'm in Osaka! I was truly impressed. Thank you for the meal!

One of the top Thai restaurants in the Fukushima area. I chose the Khao Man Gai from the lunch menu. First, salad and soup. They were gentle and delicious. Next, the main dish, Khao Man Gai. The dish with a chicken pattern and the presentation is very nice. I pour the sauce over it according to my preference. Oh, this is delicious!! This is the best Khao Man Gai I've ever had!! It's a rice dish that makes you smile involuntarily. A happy lunch that you can enjoy for 1000 yen.

I visited this place for the first time in about 10 years. The Thai restaurant I wanted to go to was unexpectedly closed, so I ended up here. The menu had changed from what was listed on Tabelog. They no longer had a mini course option. Also, they said they couldn't adjust the spiciness during lunchtime. I wanted to have green curry but they only had a daily curry, so I ordered that. It was beef yellow curry. Even though it had been a while since I last had it, it was still delicious, but I think there was quite a lot of sugar in it. Thank you for the meal.

It was a Sunday but we were able to make a same-day reservation. This is a restaurant that my son really likes. We arrived at 6:00 PM and the restaurant was full. It seems to be a very popular Thai restaurant. We were recommended to try the Sweet Basil Sausage and the Fried Shrimp Spring Rolls. We also wanted to have some rice, so we ordered the Pork Fried Rice. The shrimp spring rolls were incredibly delicious and the sausage had a unique spicy flavor that was irresistible. The fried rice tasted great with a squeeze of lemon. I would love to come back to this restaurant many times and try out different dishes. The staff's service was polite and the atmosphere was very comfortable.

There is a Thai restaurant in Fukushima, Osaka. It is located on the second floor so it may not stand out from the street, but it is a well-known restaurant in the local area. The food is so delicious that I forgot to take photos, but everything I ate was surprisingly tasty. In Thai, "very delicious" is "aroi mak mak." There is one more "mak" added!

It's hot, so let's have some Asian cuisine. I recommend Sweet Basil. It's a popular restaurant with 100 reviews on Tabelog, a bit far from JR Fukushima Station but worth the walk. We arrived at 7 pm and it was fully booked, impressive. I added extra cilantro to the glass noodle salad because I wanted more. The shrimp spring rolls were crispy and delicious. I chose the shrimp coconut curry that day, with a spice level of 2 which was just right. I enjoyed it with jasmine rice. I don't eat Thai food often, maybe once a year, but it's really good.

On a regular day, we made a reservation and visited the restaurant. - Fried shrimp spring rolls 990 yen. Crispy and delicious, you can even eat the shrimp tail. - Glass noodle salad 980 yen. This one is a bit spicy. It might be a little challenging if you don't like spicy food. - Chicken and cashew nut stir-fry 1,300 yen. Plenty of cashew nuts, very tasty. - Crab and egg curry stir-fry 2,600 yen. It's delicious when eaten with jasmine rice. - Jasmine rice (medium size) 350 yen. The sizes available are small, medium, and large. We shared a medium size among three people. - Pad Thai (Thai-style fried noodles) 1,050 yen. You can't miss Pad Thai when it comes to Thai cuisine. It was really delicious. - Total of 10,901 yen for two drinks per person. A friend recommended this place as delicious, so we made a reservation and visited. Despite being a weekday, the restaurant was full. There were also a few foreign customers. The dishes were generally generous in portion size and delicious. When looking at the menu, I thought the prices were a bit high for each dish, but when we paid, it was less than 4,000 yen per person and we were full.

Fukushima Station, a 6.7-minute walk along Naniwa-suji Street, to the 2nd floor of a building. It has a Food Log rating of 3.7 and is one of the top 100 Asian and ethnic restaurants. I haven't had much Thai food before, but determined not to lose to my low summer appetite, I visited on a Saturday for lunch. The interior has a humorous touch with a tuk-tuk sticking out from the wall, and there is a calm tropical atmosphere with terrace seating. On weekdays, there is a lunch set for 1,000 yen, but since it was Saturday, I ordered the "Saturday Lunch Course" for 1,650 yen. It includes soup, salad, curry, stir-fry, fragrant rice, dessert, and a drink. First, the salad and soup arrived. I couldn't quite figure out the seasoning of the soup, but it tasted delicious. The glass noodle salad was... lukewarm (slightly disappointed). Next came the pork red curry, gapao, and jasmine rice. Mix it all together and enjoy. The mixed Thai curry was delicious. The curry was quite spicy and hot, but the gapao was sweet with plenty of chicken flavor. The refreshing sweetness and spiciness were incredibly delicious! I felt like I was being taught the deliciousness of Thai curry. I was a little moved by it. I wanted to eat more, feeling a bit unsatisfied, but finished everything. The mango juice was rich, and the coconut tapioca had an authentic taste, but the tapioca was also lukewarm... (slightly disappointed). The lukewarm dishes were a downside, but I feel like I've been taught how delicious Thai food can be. It's a taste that guarantees a return visit. Thank you for the meal.

It's a familiar road, but I never knew there was a hidden gem of a Thai restaurant tucked away behind a wall with a scooter sticking out. Climbing up a narrow steep staircase, you'll find the entrance to this little-known Thai restaurant. They offer a lunch set menu with five options, all priced at 1,000 yen and including salad, soup, and a drink. I chose the "Thai-style stir-fried shirataki noodles in soy sauce flavor" set. The salad was a white fungus salad with a vinegar dressing that had a hint of fish sauce tanginess and a delayed spiciness that made it addictive. The chicken broth soup with chewy kelp added a nice touch before the main dish arrived. The rice flour shirataki noodles were wide and short, with a chewy and slippery texture, and the soy sauce flavor was complemented by a unique blend of spices that gave it a rich and easy-to-eat taste. The dish was generously filled with broccoli, greens, and eggs, and squeezing the lemon provided a refreshing twist to the flavor. The portion size was on the smaller side, making it suitable for women. Unfortunately, you couldn't order additional items a la carte during lunchtime, but the set menu was satisfying enough. For the drink, I tried the mango juice, which was a nice change from my usual choices. Overall, the lunch set offered great value for money, especially during lunchtime.

The delicious Gapao rice was great. Lately, I've been hooked on Gapao rice. When I looked at the menu, Gapao rice wasn't listed. The staff told me that I could order stir-fried pork and basil with rice instead. It was delicious Gapao rice. The hollow vegetable was also good. I think everything on the menu is delicious. However, it's better to visit during lunch because it gets expensive at night.

I've recently been obsessed with Asian cuisine! I visited this place for lunch as I was curious. They offer a set menu with salad, soup, and a drink for 1000 yen. I ordered the Thai-style stir-fried kishimen noodles. The noodles made from rice were chewy and delicious! The sweet and savory flavor was addictive and I couldn't stop eating. Before the noodles, they serve you a salad and soup. The white wood ear mushroom salad was incredibly tasty, not just a simple side dish! The refreshing taste with just the right amount of fish sauce was perfect. The crunchy texture was also amazing!

Having lunch out today. I had some business in Umeda in the afternoon, so I decided to try this place that caught my eye. I love spicy curry, but I can't handle super spicy food. I remember when I went to Thailand a long time ago, all the meals were so spicy that I was almost in tears, drinking water while eating. So I was a bit hesitant about trying Thai food again. But Basil was actually mild and totally fine for me. I had the Thai rice noodle soy sauce stir-fry set. The rice noodles were chewy and the flavor was gentle. It came with soup, a salad with wood ear mushrooms, and a drink for 1,000 yen. It was a great deal! I chose mango juice for the drink, and it was thick and delicious. Next time, I'll try the Thai curry.

The best Thai restaurant in Osaka! I ordered the stir-fried dish of the day with rice and a fried egg on top. I always come here craving spicy Thai food, so I usually go for the stir-fried dish. The salad (Yum Woon Sen that day) arrived first, and it was also deliciously spicy. When I finished the salad, the stir-fried dish and soup were served. They were quite spicy but incredibly tasty! The set also comes with a drink, making it really worth it.

"Sweet Basil" in Fukushima, Osaka. I love Thai food, and it's been a while since I had it. I think I'm getting hooked on it again! I had fried shrimp spring rolls, Gapaopu, Ppong curry, Khao Soi, and Jasmine rice (size L) with a friend. We were surprised by the dishes' portion sizes - each one was huge! The Gapaopu was spicy and delicious. I want to go back and eat there again soon! ❤️

Sweet Basil in Fukushima. About a 5-minute walk north from JR Fukushima Station. At the entrance of the store, half of a tuk-tuk is stuck! They offer 4 lunch options. I tried the Thai-style chicken rice and stir-fried Thai noodles with soy sauce flavor set. The chicken was tender and delicious! It's a great deal with a drink included for 1000 yen! Thank you for the meal!

I don't usually choose ethnic cuisine for lunch, but I decided to visit a restaurant that caught my interest. When I arrived just before noon, about half of the seats were already taken. By 12 o'clock, the place was completely full. Surprisingly, there were not only women but also many middle-aged men like myself among the customers. I ordered the Thai-style chicken rice set from the lunch menu. First, I was served a salad and soup, followed by the chicken rice. The chicken was tender and flavorful, the rice had a delicious taste, and the sauce that you could add was also tasty. The portion was just right. I also enjoyed a mango juice after the meal (no photo, sorry). Thank you for the delicious meal.

I wanted to eat authentic Pad Thai after a long time, so I visited the renowned Thai restaurant, Sweet Basil. This restaurant has been selected as one of the top 100 Asian Ethnic restaurants on Tabelog, offering 5 lunch options on weekdays for 1,000 yen each. On Saturdays, there is a special lunch set where you can enjoy both curry and stir-fry. The restaurant is located a short 5-minute walk north from JR Fukushima Station, inside a building along Naniwa-suji. The interior has a cozy Asian resort atmosphere with intricate lighting designs and beautiful balcony views. The furniture is made of antique Thai teak wood, providing a comfortable and spacious dining experience. The weekday lunch menu includes dishes like daily stir-fry with rice, daily curry with rice, shrimp fried rice set, Thai-style soy sauce stir-fried noodles set, and Thai chicken rice set (limited availability). On Saturdays, there is only one course lunch option available. On the day of my visit, the daily specials were chicken and herb stir-fry and Northern Thai pork curry. Of course, I ordered Pad Thai! The Pad Thai set came with salad, soup, and a drink for 1,000 yen. The white mushroom salad was spicy and refreshing, while the chicken and cabbage soup had a rich and tangy flavor. The Pad Thai itself was made with flat and chewy rice noodles, mixed with vegetables, meat, and eggs in a slightly spicy and flavorful soy sauce. The dish had a complex taste profile with a balance of sweetness, spiciness, and umami. Overall, the meal was satisfying and delicious, and the portion size was generous. The mango juice I chose as my drink was also refreshing and complemented the flavors of the Thai cuisine perfectly. The lunch set was a great value for the quality and authenticity of the food. I highly recommend trying Sweet Basil for a taste of authentic Thai cuisine.

Thank you for always reading. If you enjoyed it, I would be happy if you could bookmark the store by clicking the "Save Store" button. Today is a day to go to the office! I'm thinking about where to have lunch, so I'm visiting Sweet Basil for the first time. Sweet Basil is located at 1-11-9 Oyodonan, Kita-ku, Osaka City, a 5-minute walk from JR Osaka Loop Line "Fukushima" Station. It has been selected as one of the top 100 Asian and Ethnic restaurants in the West by Tabelog in 2022. I arrived at the restaurant a little after 12 o'clock. The restaurant is closed on Tuesdays and holidays (dinner only) and the business hours are from Monday to Saturday 11:30-13:00 (L.O.) and 17:30-21:00 (L.O.), and on Sundays 17:30-21:00 (L.O). The exterior has a Thai atmosphere, with a Thai-style roofed motorcycle fixed under the signboard. I went up the indoor stairs, disinfected my hands with alcohol at the entrance, got permission to take photos, and sat at a table. The restaurant was almost full, with Thai ornaments, maps, and an authentic atmosphere. The lunch menu has five options: stir-fried dish (daily), curry (daily), shrimp fried rice set, Thai-style soy sauce-flavored stir-fried noodles set, and Thai-style chicken rice set (limited quantity). All sets come with salad, soup, and a drink. I asked if they could still serve the limited Thai-style chicken rice set, and they said yes. My husband ordered the Thai-style chicken rice set with extra portion. The total came to 1,200 yen. First, we had soup and salad. The soup had a gentle taste of chicken broth and a hint of ginger. The salad was Yum Woon Sen (glass noodle salad) with plenty of minced meat, balanced with herbs, spices, spiciness, and acidity. The Thai-style chicken rice (Khao Man Gai) was served with steamed chicken thigh on a bed of jasmine rice. The chicken was tender and delicious. The jasmine rice cooked in chicken broth was fragrant with ginger. The Tao Jio sauce was unique and perfect for both the chicken and rice. We enjoyed the meal while feeling the Thai atmosphere. After the meal, we had mango juice to refresh. We paid the bill, thanked the staff at Sweet Basil, and left the restaurant. Husband: Thank you for the meal! It was delicious! We'll come again! Thank you for reading till the end. I hope this information can be helpful for your gourmet experience.

When I lived in Fukushima, I didn't go there, but I was curious so I made a reservation and visited at night. When I was in Yokohama, I had a favorite Thai restaurant in Tokyo that I often went to, so I am exploring in Osaka! I regularly go to Fukushima, so I have visited about 4 times already. I always order the Thai cuisine set menu with all-you-can-drink for ¥5500. First, cheers with a draft beer! By the way, the beer here is quite delicious. [All-you-can-drink included] Thai cuisine set menu ¥5500 Spring roll salad with vermicelli, squid, and shrimp, a salad with seafood and a good amount of spiciness! Assorted fried foods (fried shrimp spring rolls, fried spring rolls, garlic and pepper stir-fried chicken wings) Let's eat with sweet chili sauce! The garlic-flavored tulip goes well with beer! Tom Yum Goong with angel shrimp A refreshing sour soup with a good taste and delicious shrimp. Stir-fried pork and basil Quite a large portion with a satisfying taste. The flavor is strong and quite spicy, and the rice goes well with it. Green chicken curry Thai curry with coconut sweetness and soft eggplant, delicious! Jasmine rice is light and tasty! You get one plate per person. The number of dishes may seem small, but the last two dishes have a large amount and are filling! I always drink a lot of beer, Thai cocktails, white wine, etc., and my stomach and drink are satisfied. It's a recommended restaurant, a bit far from the station!

Visit date and time: 11:15 am on a weekday Wait time: 15 minutes (waiting for the store to open) Menu: Thai-style stir-fried rice noodles with soy sauce flavor set for 1,000 yen + large size for 200 yen I had visited without checking the regular holidays a few times, but finally managed to visit as the store was open. I arrived 15 minutes early and was the first in line. Even though I stayed at the store until around 12 pm, it seems like if you go before noon, you can get in smoothly. I also thought about getting the chicken rice bowl, but I decided to order the stir-fried rice noodles with soy sauce flavor set that I had never tried before. The noodles were made of rice flour, giving them a chewy texture. The spiciness was just right with a soy sauce base and a hint of chili pepper heat. It was easy to eat and incredibly delicious. There were plenty of meat and vegetables in it, providing a variety of textures. After finishing the meal, I had a drink. It was my first time trying it, but it was so delicious that I would definitely want to come back. Thank you for the meal.
