aog Holy Basil Thai in Artarmon absolutely deserves five stars. I’ve noticed a few recent one-star reviews complaining about portions and price, and honestly that feels really unfair. With rising costs everywhere, small local businesses can’t survive without modest price increases, and even with that, Holy Basil is still one of the best-value Thai takeaways around for the quality you get. The food is consistently fresh, full of flavour and clearly cooked with care. Portions are perfectly reasonable, and compared to other Thai places nearby, it’s still cheaper for how good it is. On top of that, the staff are some of the nicest people you’ll meet. They always greet you with a smile and are genuinely friendly, making you feel welcome every time you walk in. This place has been a local favourite for a reason. If you want genuinely good Thai food at a fair price with lovely service, Holy Basil Thai is the place to go.
