Editor’s Note
Last updated 30 May 2026
Our take on Basil King in Clementi is that it offers a generally satisfying, quick meal, particularly for those in the area.
We note consistent praise for the perfectly cooked, runny egg and the generous portion of minced pork.
The option to choose spice levels is a definite plus, with Level 2 being a good starting point for those who enjoy a kick without overwhelming heat.
However, some feedback suggests the flavour profile can be one-dimensional, lacking the depth expected from authentic Thai basil dishes.
While the spice is present, the seasoning of the meat occasionally falls short, with some finding it too oily or sweet.
The upsize option for an additional $1 for rice and $2 for protein is seen as good value.
We think this is a reliable option if you're in the vicinity and craving a quick, customisable basil rice, but it might not be a destination spot for those seeking a truly authentic or complex flavour experience.
Best for a quick, fuss-free lunch.

What customers say
Basil King (Clementi) generally receives positive feedback for its friendly service, clean environment, and perfectly cooked runny eggs.
While many appreciate the customizable spice levels and generous portions, some customers find the minced pork's flavor to be one-dimensional or lacking depth, with occasional complaints about excessive oiliness or sweetness.
The double yolk option is a popular indulgent choice.

Too oily and too sweet despite ordering spicy level 4. Jurong outlet tasted better but the portion size was smaller. Even so, basil king in SG is nowhere near the standard in BKK.
Relatively fast service and straightforward menu. Level 3 is mildly spicy but probably insufficient for real spice lovers. Double yolk made for an indulgent meal!
Came here to try the store for the first time - in a typical kopitiam, lady is nice to recommend dishes and take orders! Can choose spicy level
