Yum – Excellent Pho and summer rolls. I've had better bubble tea but their's is OK. I just wish it wasn?t so crowded! Also FYI it's closed on Sunday's.
#1 Restaurant – Like a few of the other reviewers I am of Vietnamese descent and I agree that Lime and Basil comes the closes to having delicious authentic Vietnamese food. I've tried the other Vietnamese restaurants in the triangle but the other places never satisfied me and left me feeling seedy and dirty. Last time I was at L&B I came with a large group of other Vietnamese and Americans and we received fast service, the food came out promptly, and everything was done with a smile. We all had different dishes: the summer r... read more
Best pho in the triangle – I'm vietnamese and was raised with authentic vietnamese cuisine, and I thought the pho was amazing. Despite the numerous tables and few servers, I still receive great service and am always tended to. The music and decor all add to its great ambience and feel. I recommend going on the weekdays because it can get a bit on the crazy side on the weekends.
Authentic Pho – Pho was great considering ethnic food is not Chapel Hill's strongest point. Waitstaff are very friendly and quick to serve. Main problem is that the restaurant is VERY small and reservations are not allowed. Also, the restaurant should replace the cheap wooden chopsticks w/ plastic ones that are normally used in asian restaurants. Food Ordered: Spring rolls (fried): Good as expected. Chicken Pho: Nicely seasoned soup that was very fresh tasting. Served w/ fresh bean sprouts, basil and lime.
Excellent Friendly Service, Good Food – My bosses wanted to take me to lunch and chose Lime and Basil because I had never been. It was terrific! I had read the reviews here prior to going and I cannot understand the service complaints. Our server was friendly, attentive and had a beautiful smile. The place was almost full and no one seemed left out or ignored. The food was great (I was the only one who had pho and I loved it) as was the bubble tea (next time I'm getting a coconut one!). I loved the decor but then I'm a huge ... read more
great food – I moved to the triangle from NY not too long ago and was worried about the choice of restaurants in the area...especially Vietnamese cuisine. A friend recommened Lime & Basil, and I am glad they did. The food is very good and you can't beat the value for your money. I've returned many times (after being too lazy to cook)...and I enjoy the pho, grilled dishes and the summer rolls very much. I wouldn't recommend going on the weekends, as it can get pretty crazy...I think a lot of this has to do w/ the size of the ... read more
I have never been disrespected more in my life – Besides waiting forever until one of the wait staff notices you need to be seated, the service is incredibly slow. On top of that, the manager/store owner, or so he said, treated my dinner party with complete disrespect. He was incredibly rude and seemed blazingly angry. We tried our best to be polite and appease his contempt filled attitude, but he seemed to disregard customer service completely. I will never eat there ever again and I am letting all of my friends know about ... read more
yummy pho – the only thing to eat here is the pho. a good indication of this is the descriptive placemats on what pho is. i've tried other things on the menu...they're ok, but don't compare to the fresh, flavourful soup. it's a good place to grab a bite to eat for lunch.
A must try! – Lime and Basil is a great choice!!!! The food is awesome and very authentic. Service has improved greatly since they opened. I never wait more than 15 minutes for a table and that is on a friday night. The chicken pho and house special fried rice are amazing!!! You must try this place.
