Basil Rice

Food was gross. I ordered a chicken pad Thai, the noodles were soggy, I couldn't even eat it. Also ordered the BBq chicken wings, they had a weird taste like they were going bad, they were to salty too. Just gross.

I discovered this gem last month and have had food from here multiple times since then. My favorites are pad thai, drunken noodles and cashew curry. Quantity is good. Their lunch deal is cool too with appetizer and a drink.

We ordered from Jumbowl by Basil Rice. I got the grilled fish with sweet sauce and rice. I liked that the sauce was not over drizzled over the fish so the fish was still a bit crisp by the time we got our order.
It was good enough portion for a lunch.
Overall it was decent. Nothing crazy or wow.

I've been here a few times and was never really disappointed. We ordered a few dishes drunken noodle(my fav), house fried rice orange chicken and they were all good taste wise. I think the noodles is small for price but everything else seemed reasonably priced. This is 1 of the top 3 go to in Brookline.

UberEats order - Pad siu with crispy fish and BBQ wings - all great.

I’d avoid the fried/crispy if I could though, it came soggy by the time it arrived. Naturally, not their fault for that. So still 5-stars for taste and value.

My boyfriend eats lunch here ALL the time and I was just dying to try it! I was fully satisfied with this place, loved the food! Taste as good as it looks, super delicious. My son had shrimp fried rice and it was also delicious, the crab ragoon are amazing! Will be visiting again soon. Great stuff!

I ride past this place everyday & finally stopped in. So glad I did. It's a hidden gem! I've been there 3 times this wk & will make return again sometime soon. The food is good, tastes super fresh. I purchased their chicken teriyaki w/ white rice & their version of orange chicken (pictured below). My son wasn't too fond of it as he's never gotten dry crispy chicken for orange chicken. I did call to complain about the issue, left a detailed msg and received no response.

I went back the next day with that plate and was told that's just how they make it. For that I knocked off a star as I was expecting a different outcome. They did not offer an even exchange nor an apology for the orange chicken. I just asked for the plate to be discarded & paid for my chicken teriyaki to-go (pictured below). While waiting I saw a few dishes come out to other's that were dining in. I asked what they were and was told shrimp pineapple fried rice, and the other was garlic chicken with fried rice.

Sidenote... when you request double meat. It is DOUBLE MEAT! My first trip I had double meat. The entire white container was filled with meat. The rice was in a small take out box separately. That's what had me sold! Their website is user friendly as well.
