This restaurant is a little gem in our town! We always order pick up from them but today we went to have dinner and the experience was even better. Service is outstanding, food is scrumptious and the menu is even more varied and delicious when you dine in. We ordered two appetizers, crying tiger and crispy chicken wings. Both came with different sauces, and the one they use for the wings is something I would like to bottle and take home. It's tangy and spicy! I ordered the beef noodle bowl and my husband had the duck red curry that he loves. Fantastic! The restaurant is small but beautifully decorated and maintained. We absolutely adore this place! read more

We biked here for dinner with our kids. There was a bike rack nearby to park our bikes. We sat outside since it was a nice evening. The outdoor area had a really fun ambiance. There were a few little fountains on the perimeter, turf on the ground, and decorations hanging from the trees. They had a really nice high chair with a tray for our baby. It felt like kids were welcomed even though the vibe felt upscale. They had plastic kids plates and cups. They were very accommodating of our sons dairy allergy. Even though they don't have an official kids menu they were helpful finding something that our 3yr old and baby might like. I got the yellow curry with tofu and it was excellent. The curry sauce was flavorful and warming. read more

Great food with a wonderful outside patio. The red duck curry was excellent! A wonderful family run restaurant! read more

Cane here to catch up with old friends. The outdoor patio was so inviting lovely and wonderfully shaded on a warm day. Parking was difficult in the lot but we found some parking down the street. The service was slightly too attentive. We were hanging out and chatting to much to get to business on ordering. But once we ordered the food came out quick. My drunken noodles were tasty- spicy and fresh. My partner got Khao Soi noodles which is a northern Thai recipe that is served with crispy noodles. Unfortunately there were no crispy noodles, the broth tasted heavily of bamboo shoots which muted any other flavors from the curry. Probably would stick ti classic recipes here in the future. 3.5 stars overall. read more

This has a charming, shaded outdoor location. We appreciate the friendly service and delicious food. The yellow curry is sublime.

Amazing food, family owned and run. The curry was delicious and the blackened tuna great as well. Wonderful place!

Taste keeps declining and prices keep climbing at Mod's. Being a family run restaurant, I want to like this restaurant and we've been dining here since it opened, but alas the food is now no better than generic Asian-ish food. At our favorite Thai place (not Mod's and not in this valley), the chef is Thai, went to culinary school in Thailand and cooked professionally in Thailand for decades before opening a restaurant here in the US. And the food is amazing, every menu item. Mod's Thai is definitely not that. When Mod's first opened I saw Mod cooking and it was sometimes decent. Then for many years her husband (from Mexico) cooked - and the taste suffered. Now I see neither of them cook and they both work the front of the house during service and a team of line cooks make the food... some dishes are bland and some are cloyingly over-seasoned food. I suspect the line cooks never have eaten good or real Thai food or have any affinity for Asian let alone Thai cuisine. The last time a dish was good (Kao Soi) was maybe ten or fifteen visits ago, but we keep trying hoping for better, but nowadays every order is a disappointment (including several orders of Kao Soi). The pad thai is consistently terrible. I don't understand all the great reviews. Maybe people are fooled by the attentive table service or the ambience (which has continually improved) but authenticity and taste are unimportant? read more

Very welcoming staff out front. All was fine. I only had one concern. One of your staff was seen discarding trash on a bench, when a garbage can was ten feet away. read more

Wow! We'd highly recommend trying out Mod's Thai House Restaurant in Basalt. It's Thai food taken to a new level. Mod takes her generational family recipes to an incredible level. The ambiance in the restaurant was quaint and gave you a warm cozy feel. The staff were friendly and welcoming. The food was beautifully presented and tasted amazing. Mod and her family were all very kind. We will definitely be going back. Thank you read more

Their service was great. Friendly and helpful. I ordered the pad see ew chicken. It was served hot and fresh although it wasn't my cup of tea and not what I'm used to in a pad see ew it was still tasted. It's more on the soupy side than the pan fried noodles but still good. My friend ordered the duck spring rolls, they were delicious! As well as her soup! Quaint sweet little place that I look forward to coming back to! read more

The service & ambiance is great but the food... a different story.. they dint taste like authentic thai food especially their drunken noodles The pad thai is okay 4/5 But the drunken noodles?? 2/5 read more

We wanted to try the Thai food there and left without eating much. We ordered pad thai, tom yum shrimp soup and chicken satay. We found a hair in chicken satay. Tom yum soup felt semi cooked. And the Pad thai is the worst we have ever had. Very sour and no salt. That's not pad thai. Owner said he wouldn't charge for the chicken satay as it has hair found in it. We paid for the remaining food and left. We were having an amazing day and this restaurant ruined our day a bit read more

All around exceptional!!! The outdoor dining was comfortable and elegant. But the food was wowow! The duck spring rolls and dipping sauce were 5 star! The wine list by the glass was surprisingly interesting and we were very happy with what we ordered. The barramundi in green curry was perfectly prepared. The curry sauce was aromatic and the spiciness level was spot on! We like our Thai food spicy and often find our meals less hot than desired. The owner was fun to talk with and hear about his exit from Aspen to Basalt. Next trip, I think we will stay in Basalt! The prices are much more reasonable and the food was oh so good! Several other restaurants we want to try there! read more

Worst pad thai i have had. It was noodles drenched in fish sauce and no other flavor. Chicken khao soi was also not good. Mango sticky rice was good. Vegetarians : please note, no vegetarian options. All curries have shrimp paste and fish sauce. Noodles has fish and oyster sauce. They cannot make any item without fish sauce or shrimp paste. So just something to keep in mind. read more

This place is an absolute gem. From the outside to the moment you walk in. The service is outstanding and the people are so nice, warm and welcoming. The ambiance of this place, both the outside patio and the tables inside. The food was delicious we had the drunken noodle and the curry. Both were great. Such a lovely evening. read more

A great local gem! The food is delicious and the service is professional and friendly. We are lucky to have Mod's so close to home. The Duck with Red Curry is my favorite dish. The Tom Yum soup is also delicious. Then there's the Duck Crispy Spring Roll which is over the top amazing! Honestly, I have not a dish there I have not thoroughly enjoyed. read more

We got carry out from here because of the great ratings. We were so looking forward to good Thai, but we were disappointed. We are visiting this area from N Va and this is not good Thai. Flavorless drunken noodles. Noodles should be flat, fresh rice noodles and not the plastic flavored skinny noodle. All these 5 star ratings are insane. read more

Everything I've ordered here has been delicious. From the drunken noodles, chicken satay, poke bowl, to the mini steakhouse offerings. The owners are so kind and knowledgeable. I've loved the wine and saki they have recommended. My kids love to eat here as well! It's a well loved, favorite. read more

Fairly good Thai food but not the best place in town to eat. Not too many choices in Basalt though.

This place was amazing. One of the owners himself served my husband and I. He gave us amazing recommendations. Everything tasted so good. Full of flavor and the presentation was beautiful. The ambiance was so beautiful. We sat outside and enjoyed the plants and little water fountains. Thank you so much. read more

Love this amazing, delicious and tasty local restaurant. Wonderful flavors and everything so fresh!

The food was great. Service was exceptional. Will go back many more times. Would highly recommend!

It was my first time in Basalt (what a cute little town with bunch of awesome stores, galleries and restaurants btw!!) so I went with suggestions of fellow Yelpers and decided to go for a Thai food. Everything was amazing: service, atmosphere and, of course, food! Probably one of the best Pad Thais I have ever had! It was perfect: super fresh, and flavors were absolutely fantastic. I wish it were closer so I can visit more often but if you are in town, you won't regret trying it out! read more

Food very over priced. Does not taste good. Charge 20% service fee automatically. Not sure where the high review comes from but not a good restaurant at all read more

This place left me confused, not because we were not able to find it but the taste of the dishes they serve. Firstly, if you know us, we are big fans of Thai food so we were expecting the same flavors that we have eaten everywhere but this place threw us a curveball. We ordered the egg rolls which were a little oily and lacked distinct flavor, pad thai with tofu had a sourish taste to it and green curry was spicy unlike anywhere we've had. We can handle spice not an issue but it just came as a surprise. The dishes themselves were masterfully presented. The place has a nice fine dining feeling to it but the prices are not that expensive. I was confused between giving it a 3 or 4. The reality is that it is 3.5 so I were with 4. read more

This is a cute little hut tucked away from the Main Street in downtown Basalt. Servers were friendly and it seemed like a family owned business. I ordered papaya salad and drunken noodles. Papaya salad was decent. I did not care much for the thin noodles, it had a plastic after taste but the sauce was good. If you are looking for a summer salad, try papaya salad. It's a good summer dish to try. I would go back and try different dishes again. read more

Food is fantastic, tasty, nice variety. Sitting in the restaurant is wonderful, in the summer is fun with the large door open you can sit either inside or outside.

We order a lot of to go from here. The prices have steadily increase (as most restaurants have) but it's really the only option in the area for decent Thai. Unfortunately I've seen the khao ski dish decline a bit over the years which has been disappointing. read more

This place in Basalt was a wonderful discovery. It's small with maybe 5 tables inside but it's very charming. The food is first rate. We were very happy with our unique egg rolls (see pic), Massaman Curry and Pad Thai. They also serve beer and wine. Highly recommend this little place that has its own parking. read more

What a cute and welcoming little place! We had major Thai food cravings and ordered so much, that the waitress wanted to make sure we still wanted our mains! It was so delish on a cold winter evening. Shrimp rolls could have been made to order (they tasted refrigerated), but otherwise everything else was fantastic. Also, the tom yum and the green curry was perfectly balanced and spiced. We also loved the cozy interior and got seated on a soft couch that felt like sitting a cloud. read more

Cold service and tasteless drunken noodle. Two stars for the duck spring rolls and chicken satay.

Good Thai if it's the only food. Red curry was very spicy. Pad Thai was pretty bland. Two stars for the fast turn over.

We had a tasty lunch. Food was cooked to order with delicious sauces; we shared the chicken satay, yummy crispy duck rolls and shrimp pad Thai that was generous with the shrimp. A nice find on a non-ski day while touring the Roaring Fork Valley. The chef owner was gracious and interested in how we had found him (Yelp) and our vacation in the area. Definitely worth a visit if you love Thai food. read more
