Basin Seafood & Spirits Seafood Restaurant ·$$$

Basin Seafood And Spirits, as the name suggests, specializes in delicacies made out of freshly caught seafood and serves small plates which can be shared by two to three people at once. The ambiance of the restaurant is casual with warm orange and yellow hues and high table tops beside the bar. They also have a rooftop terrace where you can enjoy your meal with a good view of the neighborhood. Their signature, Thonsalat, served with spicy, flavorsome curry and rice is a constant favorite and other popular dishes are Crawford Mac And Cheese and Redfish Shrimp. The menu is seasonal and keeps evolving according to the catch so it is recommended to ask for specials of the day. If you go in early, you can manage to grab great deals on the cocktails and wine during the happy hours.
