Chef's kiss to Basil Bistro. Visiting from San Diego, we knew after seeing the large portions that it would hit the spot. They serve a variety of entrees, and everything we had was flavorful and well made. There are plenty of booths inside, so very family and group friendly. Service was friendly, refilled water frequently, and boxed our takeaway for us. We look forward to going back! read more

Great flavor. Noodle soups are served very hot, which is how I like it. Service is great (felt like a mom & pop shop, so the servers are probably the owners, always the best service when they're also owners) All kinds of creative appetizers, and most are pretty good too, when you eat here, definitely try some. read more

Basil Bistro was such a pleasant surprise and honestly exceeded my expectations. Coming from San Diego, I've had my fair share of good bun bo hue, so I don't say this lightly... theirs really hit the spot. The broth was the star--SO flavorful, rich, and packed with depth. You can tell they took their time with it. It was perfectly balanced, not too heavy, and every spoonful was just so satisfying. I kept going back for "one more sip" until it was gone. I also tried the beef fried rice and this was not your typical fried rice. It wasn't bland or just lightly seasoned--this one had real flavor. Everything tasted well thought out and properly seasoned. I especially liked the addition of broccoli, which added a nice texture and a little twist that worked really well with the dish. The salt and pepper chicken wings were another standout. Super crispy on the outside with great flavor in every bite. They had that perfect crunch and seasoning that makes them hard to stop eating. Customer service was amazing. Everyone was so kind and welcoming, and it really felt like a family-owned spot. The kind of place where you feel taken care of and appreciated. Overall, I really enjoyed everything here. This is definitely a spot I'd recommend if you're in the area and craving something flavorful, comforting, and made with care. read more

Best pho place in the world. Best quality of meet, broth, slice onion. Well done always!

10 STARS FOR ME! I'm honestly surprised this place doesn't have more reviews or more traffic! The wings were incredible--golden brown with a handmade batter and spices mixed together perfectly. You can tell they're made fresh and cooked just right. The lemongrass chicken was also delicious--full of flavor and perfectly prepared. Everything tasted authentic and made with care. So good I ordered Rib eye (beef) Banh Minh sandwich!! The owner (I didn't catch her name) was very kind and welcoming. I'll definitely be coming back soon to try the calamari next time! Highly recommend checking this place out. read more

This used to be Lemongrass but they changed the owner. It's decent Vietnamese food but I think they're charging way too high for simple Vietnamese food. $7 for a Vietnamese coffee and almost $20 for Pho. Pork vermicelli - big enough portion . egg rolls were really good but strips of charbroiled pork were little and sliced very thin . Love how the veggies were fresh. Fish sauce was bland Bun Bo hue- good and flavorful but still lacking some broth depth compared to other places Spring rolls- decent and fresh. Wish there were the crispy stuff inside like how Lemongrass and Brodards do it. The lady was extremely nice. As much as I want to support small businesses , I can't see myself wanting to come again. I'd rather drive further to OC or 626 for some authentic Vietnamese place. Best of luck! read more

Basil Bistro - This WAS a 32. Pho Chicken - Chicken Wings Near Me - Chino Hills, California

I have come here before and loved it, I was nonstop bragging about how good this place was to my partner and said we should come here for dinner. Well this second experience made me completely change my opinion. The server was nice, but I waited nearly 45 mins to get my food. And not even that, when I got my food it was the wrong order which resulted in another 15 mins wait, at this point I was so frustrated I just wanted to leave. There was only my table of 3 people and another table of two people who came 20 mins after us and got served their food way faster and ordered way more food than we did. I am very disappointed with my experience and will not be coming back. read more

A cold winter day calls for a Pho. Tried Basil Bistro for the first time. Tried the spicy seafood Thai style. Loved it. Food 5 stars Ambience : casual dining 5 stars Service 5 stars. Was not a big fan of the fried rice but Pho was bang on... definitely coming back. read more

We came for Mother's Day lunch, looking to try a new spot and left with happy bellies. Not only was the food delicious, but the service was friendly and quick, the best combo! We ordered their Charbroiled pork with egg roll rice plate, vermicelli bowl, and Pad Thai. The pork cutlets were pounded thin until tender, marinated with so much flavor, and grilled until aromatic. The rice plate came with two cutlets over a mound of rice, I was impressed with the portion size. My egg roll was so crispy and came hot. The Pad Thai had a unique twist, it didn't have the usual sweet-tart sauce, instead more like a garlicky sweet soy sauce. Still delicious! The noodles were flat and thicker, but it still had a nice chew for texture. Shrimp was a bit overcooked, but no other complaints. Can't wait to come back! read more

Love this place. Everything I have tried is delicious. The staff is very nice and the restaurant is always clean.

stumble upon this place by accident because I was craving for banh mi, and boy am I glad I did. The banh mi was freshly made, the pork was really juicy and everything else was amazing. Service is also top-notch. I would totally go back again. read more

I had no idea this place was even here, It's new and it is SO delicious. It's such good food and such good quality food. The flavor of the beef broth on the pho was so good I drank the broth until my bowl was empty. The vegetables were fresh and the flavor was great! My husband got the chicken and rice bowl and we both had pickled carrots and jalapeño to garnish. The place is really cute and clean, and the service was great. I will definitely come back! I'm so glad there is a new delicious Pho place to visit. read more

Basil Bistro - chicken and rice bowl - Chicken Wings Near Me - Chino Hills, California

I saw this newly opened Vietnamese Thai restaurant the other week and was eager to try since the menu looks very appealing. It was a Wednesday night and we were the only table beside another table with one person. Scanned through the menu and decided to order beef pho, yam veggie roll, gyoza and fried chicken bowl. The service was nice and attentive. Now, let me review the food: - Beef pho is below par, the broth wasn't hot at all and it was too little for the typical pho bowl. Nicely, the waiter brought us another bowl of broth and it was very hot when we mentioned our concern to him. Why not from the beginning they served it as hot? The flavor of the broth wasn't savory IMHO. It's not that authentic and the beef is just ok, a bit dry overall. - Fried chicken rice bowl is more like Japanese Oyako don, but with fried chicken. The portion is pretty small, the portion of the chicken itself more like appetizer size. The rice also tastes old. - Yam Veggie Roll was pretty good, but way too much Thai sweet chili sauce and gyoza was just ok. Definitely it breaks my heart to experience this at a newly opened restaurant and as much as I'd love supporting small business, I'll put my money somewhere else. read more

Everything is so delicious where! The wings! Even the spring rolls with the yams. But what's even better, is their customer service. Everyone is so nice here and they are so welcoming. Everytime we come, they will recognize us and greet us. Love this place. read more

一直在考慮，到底要給他們三顆星還是四顆星，事實上在我心裡面大概就在三點五顆左右，裡面的環境是明亮也漂亮的，有小小的自己的特色，本來看到泰式跟越式一起的餐廳很興奮，想來試試，到底是什麼樣的滋味，結果只有第一道炸春捲還可以，我很喜歡吃的豬排飯，真的非常的鹹，另外我叫的炒麵，鍋氣也有待加強，東西就是差一點點，大概就是75分左右，但是他們的服務態度是好的，整體環境也是不錯的！ read more

Food is solid although a little on the pricey side. The staff is super friendly and accommodating. Restaurant is spacious, meaning they don't cram as many seats as possible inside. read more

I love the most Bun Bo Hue and Pho. Com Ba Mau is also good. My daughters like to eat Pho, Banh Mi Sandwich and the Wing-Delish. We will come back next time to try some other food. read more

The portions of the food are massive and if you think otherwise you are delusional (and probably obese). The food is very flavorful and the customer service is phenomenal. Also had the pho, egg rolls and springs rolls. Not to mention the delicious strawberry smoothie, to die for freshly made. The ambiance is calm with great hip music to cater to the masses. Will definitely be coming again and ordering other things. 10/10. read more

My girlfriend and I came here for the first time since I wasn't feeling well and wanted some pho. We originally ordered a bowl of chicken pho through Grubhub for pickup but decided to eat-in instead. Service was excellent, Sean, our server, accommodated us and walked us through the menu since it was our first time and checked in often. The chicken pho was flavorful, the broth was spot on, and the dining area was clean. He went above and beyond with his customer service! When Sean went on break, the cashier stepped in and was just as friendly, encouraging us to try other dishes next time we visit. Excited to try their banh mi on our next visit. Fresh food, amazing service, and a welcoming vibe! We left full, grateful, and excited to come back. Highly recommend! read more

Absolutely love this place. Amazing service. They actually care about you and go out of their way to make your meal perfect. I'm so appreciative of them and the team. Come here hungry, you won't be disappointed and you will 100% come back again. The food is so delicious. Try the rocket shrimp and any pho combination. You won't regret it. read more

We tried this place to see if we would add it to our to go spots list. We ordered 4 dishes, and the portion was very small for each box.. not worth $20/each dish, the pork rich dish was good, but unfortunately everything else was mediocre and given the small portion, we likely wouldn't be back. read more

Been coming here for a while now and haven't left a review yet. We have tried the pad see yew, lemon grass chicken, pad Thai, and vegetable noodles, allllll are fantastic. But the Bahn Mi and pho are absolutely phenomenal. The people here are also so kind and love to talk through the menu if we've ever had questions. I really really love this place and home they stay here forever. read more

I don't usually write reviews, but this place deserves recognition! This is my new go to place for whenever I travel to this area. The food quality and consistency keeps me coming back. The Bun Bo Hue was just as good as the first time I had it. The service is fantastic with regular check ups and suggestions on how the food can be better enjoyed, especially when taking food to go. The restaurant is clean and well maintained. I ended up trying the Pork Spring Rolls as well this time. I have personally not tasted anything nearly the same! There's a pleasant surprise with each bite that leaves me wanting more. read more

Very flavorful broth! It was our first time trying this place, and the rib eye pho did not disappoint. I also tasted a bit of the Bun Bo Hue -- delicious. The pork Banh mi was tender and hearty.

BEST pho in chino hills. I come here at least twice a month now since I moved here. Coming from OC pho was such a big part of my hungover life. Now, not hungover and just enjoying food, Basil Bistro has the flavor that I've been missing from the pho places from back home. Side note: the salt and pepper crispy wings are 100/10 I get them almost every time. read more

Another great experience from Basil Bistro! We are hooked on their banh mi sandwiches. The steak is my favorite and my wife likes the chicken, both packed with flavor and the bread is perfect, little crunch but holds it all together really well. We tried the calamari tonight which was also very good; the sauce that it came with was awesome. I have to shout out Kim and Sean who I have met visiting this location; super friendly folks who make you feel welcome every visit. I am really happy we found Basil Bistro, such a good spot here in Chino Hills. read more

In my son's words, the best pho ever! If I ask him which restaurant he wants to go to, He will always request this place. When we dine in he will say, see you next week. Yes! We order take out regularly here. I always get the salt and pepper wings!!! Sooo good. I tried the wonton soup tonight and they even added chili oil on the side. I think I found my new favorite item. So flavorful! I can't wait to try other items on their menu! Thank you for always giving great customer service. read more

Honestly, I debated even writing this review because I kind of wanted to gatekeep it as my own little hidden treasure. But it's just too good not to share. The food is phenomenal--hands down the best Banh Mi I've ever had (and I've tried plenty). And the wings? Chef's kiss! Crispy, flavorful... yummy! What really makes this place special is the owner and her family. They're so welcoming and kind, you feel like you've just sat down at their dining table at home. If you haven't been yet, go. Dine in. Enjoy every bite. You'll see why I almost kept this place all to myself! read more

The restaurant is a great place for a quick bite. It has cozy atmosphere and very friendly / attentive staff.

Service was good but the portion was really small. For 17$ a bowl, I felt hungry afterwards. My wife usually has leftovers for me but she finished the whole thing. Just don't understand why the high price with the small portions. Doesn't cost that much to put a little more into it and likely to get return customers. I won't be going back. read more
