Our Story, Rooted in Tradition

From Family Recipes to the Heart of Chicago

Green Basil Street is a fast-casual Thai restaurant located in the Chicago Loop, a vibrant hub for professionals, students, and visitors alike. Building on over 25 years of family recipes from the original Green Basil restaurant in Vernon Hills, Green Basil Street brings authentic Thai flavors into a modern fast-casual, urban setting.


The name blends the energy of Thai street food culture with the heritage of traditional family recipes. Every dish is wok-fired to order, featuring fresh, locally sourced ingredients with gluten-free, vegetarian, and vegan-friendly options. For us, it’s simple: fast service, approachable prices, and food that never compromises on quality.
