Basil Thai At Urbana

One of my favorite spots in Champaign that I've been a few times, especially on Sundays for their $1 sushi menu. A few times we went in winter, and some of their dishes when it's cool out like Miso Soup, Steamed Edamame. I ordered the same food again and again, so there is only one corner of the menu I tried. Steamed Edamame steamed and salted perfectly, especially on cooler days and if you have the time to sit and chat while you enjoy it. Sushi I enjoy the Coconut Shrimp Mango Sushi and always consider one after the meal as a dessert. Your $1 sushi menu on Sundays, you can get a few sushi rolls, from different varieties, without committing yourself to a record. Vegetable dumplings quite crispy with a hot filling of vegetables and tofu. Miso Soup this traditional soup from Japan had a toasty sweet salty taste, with soft sponge tofu chunks, and Sweet Spicy Korean Chicken Wings, served with one side of Asian Coleslaw The crumb of fried chicken is incredibly ideal even if it has penetrated in a sweet and spicy sauce. I always order with one side of white steamed rice, as it is technically a starter and I always try to make a meal of it. The Asian Koleslaw is great and I believed it so much that I restored it at home. But they are always really nice to get me seconds of the Koleslawin. A piping hot bowl of soup filled with all kinds of vegetables and rams noodles, top with a tile pig belly that we always end up in a doggy bag. I would definitely recommend this place as it is a pretty experience. Even during Covid they had LITERAL bubbles for the tables with heating, so that everyone can practice safe social distancing.

Also tho this is nothing like a Korean restaurant, the spicy sauce on the stir fry is very like a spicy pork bulgogi — SO good. Perfect amount of spice. I could eat here every day.

Delicious restaurant! We love the Omaki, and yes, the dollar sushi is great for trying new roles. Even the art is really cool (sorry, I don't have any pictures).

Beautiful, cumbersome place for Date Night. Amazing sushi, unlike we've been in Japan since the last time. Amazing service. Can't wait to go back!
