Decorations in Thailand are unique and the restaurant here in Malakas street in Quezon City just makes you feel you are in Bangkok. I like their pad thai. It is similar to that pad thai in Tesco Lotus. It's rich in flavours and it is really oily! the bean sprouts still have the crunch in it and the nuts are sprinkled on top without making tipid on it! Their tom yum is just the tom yum a Thai friend cooked for me: it tastes like the tom yum mix they usually use. hihi. Chicken pandan has the pandan aroma and taste in it. What sets this Thai restaurant apart from any Thai restaurant in Manila is that they sell goodies from Thailand. So, if you miss you favourite tamarind candy or you want that ointment or get some trinkets from Thailand, its almost sure they have it there. Dine and shop and experience Thai flavour!

Amazing little gem of Marikina. Really good Thai food patterned for the Filipino palate. Menu is…read morepretty basic and the usual Thai fare of Pad Thai, Tom Yum and Bagoong Rice are dubbed as best sellers but with good reason. The Bagoong Rice is a meal in itself with all the flavor palates present. Crab rice is great as well- no Kani sticks included, only real crabmeat. Hefty servings and unbeatable prices. Complete your Siamese meal by adding peanuts, chili powder and vinegar on your noodles as you please! It adds up to the experience. Down everything with their Thai Milk Tea which you can taper down the sweetness by request.

Best pad thai so far. Very balanced in terms of flavor. Not too much tamarind paste, sourness and…read moresweetness is not that powerful. Also ordered the grilled pork, seafood fried, not sure what the shrimp dish was but they were really generous with the servings. Seafood fried rice had lots of squid and shrimp in it that ordering the shrimp dish made it redundant. The pork was so soft and savory. Classic. Not sure if a chicken dish was ordered but I think we did and it was really great. The pricing and quality of the food will have me go back to this place on top of the authentic pad thai they serve.

A must try is the surprisingly good green papaya salad, and the green mango salad with a thai twist did not disappoint. Try also the pork satay, pad thai with shrimps, stir fry kangkong, bagoong rice, the famous Krung Thai fried chicker and sticky rice with mango abd or banana and camote fritters for dessert. There is also a souvenir and knick knack shop and some groceries and a dance hall upstairs. Nice ambience, plenty of parking. I highly recommend this place if you are craving Thai food.

None of the restaurants were attractive enough until I told her, let's do Thai. It's been a long while since we sat in to eat. Post covid.... Basil was empty but we have eaten here before and it was never a disappointment. Let us see if anything has changed. First dish was crispy spring roll and two sauces, sweet&sour and garlic chili. 10/10 Second, third and fourth dishes all showed up at the same time. Shrimp paste fried rice (bagoong fried rice), pad thai and bbq pork skewers. Out of all 3, the best were bagoong fried rice and bbq pork skewers. Having some nice suka (vinegar) with the skewers hit the spot! Pad thai was ok but not too crazy about it. The noodles were a bit chewy and my guess is the cook didn't toss and stir it enough. The taste though was spot on. Overall, 8.5/10 As for overall decor, ambiance was nice. Quiet was also a bonus and nobody around due to covid. That's a bonus. 8/10

Basil is one of the top 3 places that immediately come to mind when I'm in the mood for Thai food…read more It's become a sort of family staple, since it's such a short drive from our house, and I can say without exaggerating that the food is excellent. (I would have given it 5 stars if the prices were a bit more student / young adult friendly, and if it were a bit easier to park.) The interiors are very well done. I think the look they're trying to go for is Indochinese nature spa complete with subdued lighting and the ever present smell of incense. They even have a waterfall type fountain that drains into a koi pond. That is beside the point, because you forget all about the ambiance once you start eating. They seem to have perfected the flavor and texture of each dish I've tried. I'm usually not big on spicy food, but lately I've been finding myself craving a lot for their Tom Yum. The broth is just the right mix of creamy sourness and spice. Other favorites are the Crispy Catfish Salad, the Prawns Wrapped in Noodles, the Beef Short Ribs and the Chicken with Cashew. If you're feeling extra sinful, the Sticky Rice with Mango or Thai Halu Halo make good choices for dessert.

Pork belly was tender enough and the dipping sauce added even more flavor. Same thing to be said about the bagoong rice- just good.

Overall rating: 4.25 stars…read more Thai Foon is this wonderful modern Thai restaurant located along Gil Fernando Avenue in San Roque, Marikina City. The dining area is cozy and casual, and the waitstaff are very attentive and friendly. Tom Yum Goong (or Hot and Sour Soup with Prawns) - I have had tom yum goong at other popular chain restaurants before, and I can say that Thai Foon's tom yum goong is the most well-balanced as far as flavor is concerned. The prawns were slightly overcooked, but the joy of partaking in a good soup as a prelude to a meal is in the excitement and anticipation that it brings to the palate, and in the company of friends you share it with. Tom Kha Gai - Hot and spicy soup with chicken, coconut milk, and galangal. Warm, spicy, creamy, and filling. This is the Asian version of that classic chicken soup that Westerners enjoy during chilly weather. Spicy Minced Pork with Lettuce - This is my favorite dish of the entire spread. Equal parts sweetness and fiery heat, the assertive flavors of the meat and sauce are cut down by the freshness of the greens. Crispy Catfish with Green Mango Salad - This dish is a play on textures. The catfish was a delicious yet light treat, cooked to crispy perfection and well-seasoned. The green mango salad wasn't quite what I expected--I am used to fresh and crisp slivers of that mildly sour fruit--but the pickled vegetable texture is a good foil to the deep-fried fish. Pineapple Fried Rice - Our fried rice had so much pineapple and sausage in it that it is a complete meal on its own. Green Curry Pork - This is my second favorite dish of the day. Warm and spicy with a subdued level of heat, I highly recommend having this dish with the pineapple fried rice. That was an awesome combination! We also had Deep Fried Chicken Wings with Sweet Chili Sauce, Chicken Satay, Fresh Spring Rolls, and Pad Thai. Thank you to YouTuber What the F! for taking me with her to the food tasting event at Thai Foon. You can find this restaurant at the ground floor of the Manila HealthTek Building, Gil Fernando Avenue, San Roque, Marikina City. It's worth the trip to Marikina City!

I believe it wouldn't be surprising to tell you that they serve Thai, this cozy little restaurant is located just right behind Bonito's, another popular restaurant within the locality. Serving authentic Thai dishes such as Pad Thai, spring rolls (of course the Thai version of it, fellas), Tom Yum and a whole lot more, Baan Thai is a fresh alternative to the omnipresence of bars and grills populating Los Baños. What to try? Their spring rolls and Pad Thai are the classic dishes, but for those with an adventurous palette, perhaps the Papaya Salad or the Thai Bagoong rice might suit your unconventional needs. So, if you're looking for a nice, relaxing way to have lunch, try giving Baan Thai a visit and be able to spend those slow afternoons gobbling down mouthwatering Thai cuisine in a nipa hut, while sitting on pillows!

Granted, it's rather a little pricey, but it's incredibly private and conducive for private conversations. I didn't notice any sockets, though, so it's not a laptop-friendly place. You won't find many people in the college age demographic though, so be prepared to keep your voices down. I'm not exactly a Thai cuisine aficionado (I think the dish names just sound like random syllables), but the food was surprisingly yummy, and outside my regular palette. I like the fried spring rolls, wok fried noodles, and the Thai style fried rice. I ended up spending less than P250 for my share of the meal, which is really okay considering I'd saved up and it was a higher end restaurant.
