Lime and Basil Thai Restaurant

It was my second time eating here. The first time there were only four of us so we ordered only 3 viands. This time, there were 20 of us, so we were able to sample more food. Some were very good, like the fresh spring rolls, the red chicken curry, the shrimp hot and sour soup, and a fried spring roll, which I forget the name. The others were just OK for me like the pad thai and the bagoong rice. The ambiance is very nice and the service was excellent. There's ample parking at the back of the restaurant.

We had a very pleasant experience dining here. It maybe a little far if you’re from Manila but it’s definitely worth it. The place is great and the staff were kind and polite. They even have their own garden at the back and you can see that they grow some of the ingredients they use. The food was excellent as I am a sucker for Thai dishes. We will be coming back very soon.

This is the 2nd time my family visited the place. We love the food since they appeal to our palate. We ordered our favorites, Tom Yum Goong and Pad Thai, among others and the level of spiciness seems to have leveled up compared to our last visit. But we still managed to finish our food since we love spicy food. We will definite visit again.

So so blown away by the superb experience we had in Lime and Basil. No wonder it is well reviewed and a popular destination when in Tagaytay. We ordered the Tom Yan Soup, beef red curry and Fried tilapia. All of these food were very delicious most especially the tom yum soup!! Probably the best I’ve tasted!! Serving time is 15-20mins. Friendly and very efficient staff. Only the best for this restaurant! Highly recommended!

This is an outstanding restaurant. Most friendly service and extremely tasty food. Portions are generous, and the taste of all dishes is authentic and perfectly prepared. There are plenty of non-meat dishes, like several tofu dishes and salads. It is an amazing place to return to and for everyone who likes Thai food a must visit place. Just amazing.

Always a pleasure dining here. It is a bit far from the usual Tagaytay strip and the heavy traffic in the TN hway from the rotonda/Mahogany area all the way here is enough to sap any desire to dine in this area. But during the weekdays, travel time is manageable and driving all the way here is easy. Simple tips. Huge parking downhill at the back. Diners can simply get off at the main entrance when they enter the driveway as it is a bit of walk uphill back to the dining area. Reservation is highly recommended to get good seats. Place is huge and gorgeous but I do find the restroom to be quite inadequate for the size of the restaurant. Staff and customers are sharing the same restroom so I do hope they improve on this later on. Moving on, it can be a bit chilly with the wind blowing from the back so best seats I guess is in the house. Unfortunately it is quite limited so reservation will come in handy. Usual salad starter is the reliable Yam Pla Duk Foo crispy catfish but do check out the Yam Som O pomelo salad. Which in my opinion is way better as the acidity of the fruits blends well with the seasoning and spices giving it a distinct taste. Tom Yum Goong spicy shrimp soup is always great for the cold weather. Really Spicy is the way to go. Paneng Nua which is beef with red curry and peanuts is delicious. Meat is tender and the roasted fragrant peanut sauce will without any doubt increase your rice consumption. PannaCotta sampler for dessert is kinda a minor letdown. The texture is ok but the bland taste is not cohesive as I thought it would. I would be better off with their halo-halo if only it was available at that time. Banana fritters also missed the mark as I hardly tasted the banana. Overall the Thai- cuisine here is exceptional and I would be coming back every now and then when its not the holidays or weekends and the traffic is very light. No fly in the ointment so to speak.
