Stunning Décor / Attentive Service / Delicious Food

Holy Basil opened its doors in 2009 and has since consistently delivered some of the tastiest Asian food in Sydney and become renowned for their unique fusion of Thai with the simple, saltier and earthier spicing of its neighbour Laos. A distinctive cuisine dominated with fresh herbs and spices is like no other cuisine on earth, with a delicate

balance between sweet, sour and spicy. The deliciously fiery and frenetic food is balanced with their welcoming and laid back nature. At Holy Basil, we are a family owned and operated restaurant that aims to share with you the integrity of our family recipes as well as new food concepts using old techniques borrowed from our past.

The unmistakable scent of the charcoal grill is calling. 🔥

Our Ox Tongue is a masterclass in traditional technique. We marinate every piece in a blend of aromatic herbs before slow-grilling it over glowing coals.

It arrives at your table tender, fragrant, and packed with deep, caramelised flavours. This dish is a true staple of the Holy Basil experience and a tribute to our heritage.

Grab a plate and see why it remains a crowd favourite across Sydney.
