We always visit this restaurant with friends of us that live in Cambridge, and we take few different dishes. With ever popular sharing option in exotic cuisine restaurants we had opportunity to try many items from their menu. I was always saying that, Classicos restaurant in Kitchener had the best mussels, and we enjoy them there many times. Unfortunately Classicos closed few years back and I couldn't find comparable mussels until we tried them at Red Basil. At my last visit, I had them as an appetizer and then order them again as main course. Yes, they are that good. Crispy roast duck is great, and their fried rice is superb. We will visit again.

Red Basil is a great place for satisfying that Vietnamese food craving. The price is great for the…read moreamount of food you get. The flavor is localized, so along side pho and lemongrass dishes there is also orange chicken and other american-asian dishes. The area is pedestrian only and has lots of free parking around the area. The restaurant has plenty of seating for 2s, 4s, and more and is only one floor. We had a mix of food ordered, but the battered chicken with egg noodles was impressive, it was a large portion and had a fluffy and moist chicken overtop the noodles. It was lots of food, and could have made great leftovers if we didn't devour it all. The service is on the slower side, they only had one server that day and the chef came out to help out. All-in-all the wait was around 20-25 min to get from order to food on the table and it was enjoyable. Would come back again to try the duck next time.

The large bowl did not have as much ingredient ratio to noodles compared to more places. We thought to order the stir fry beef with vegetables because we thought we would still hungry. The dish feature was not the best with an underwhelming 5 pieces of meat to almost dead vegetables. It seemed more of a plate of leftovers. The "Thai" sauce was a water down bunch of juice thickened with corn starch. Overall just was not impressed with this restaurant. Not returning.

I ordered a grilled meat and rice dish, and with so many similar options on the menu, the wrong meat ended up being ordered When I pointed it out and asked if they could simply replace the meat to match my order, the waitress responded with a complete lack of care. She bluntly told me, "The manager isn't here, so you have to pay for both dishes whether you eat it or not." That was it--no solutions, no effort to fix the issue, nothing. I was left feeling like my business didn't matter to them at all. If this is how they treat long-time customers, I can't imagine how they handle other guests. Take my advice: AVOID THIS PLACE. There are plenty of better pho spots in town that actually value their customers. This was the last straw, and I won't be back. An absolute nightmare of a dining experience!

So Delicious!!!…read more This spot is easy to miss but you definitely must go!! The prices are great and everything is so fresh. It's about $3-$5 per sandwich which is always such great value! I like to get the vegetarian special sandwich made spicy. The sandwich comes on a soft but crunchy baguette with pickled carrots and daikon, mayo, spicy sauce, tofu, some sort of tasty sauce, cucumbers, and cilantro (I think that's everything). I also like the vegetarian fresh rolls which are so nice with tofu, something crispy, vegetables, and egg, all wrapped up in rice paper and served with a yummy dipping sauce. Looks can be deceiving and don't miss this spot that's tucked away on king street! They're also making it super safe for you to pick up your order with glass shields away from where the food is prepared and a limited number of people inside. A favourite for me!!

The two places I have been to were excellent! Depending on where you live, lots of pho options. FYI, not closed early on Sunday. The other Pho Dau Bo was closed at 4pm on Sunday. ***FYI, I'm a crazy pho eater that has to have pho from all over. I travel far and in between the states. Eating from LA, Vegas, MN, WI, MI, IL, NC, OH, Manhattan, NY, FL, KS, MS, D.C.,TX, Canada, etc. I've had the best pho (rated by the expert locals) in LA, Hollywood, Chicago, GA, and FL. I make reviews after tasting their pho. I know what pho is good and what is fake!*** Do not miss this GEM! If you live outside Canada, try this place !! My Star System: 1=Dumpster fire. Don't waste your money 2=Disappointed. Lot of issues 3=Average, 1-2 issues. 4=Above average, I might come again 1-3 times per year 5=Highest. I will come back a few times a month or more. If I live far, it's at the top of my list to visit when I'm in town. Highly Recommended
