Eggplant stir fry with pork
Lil B.

Saturday early dinner at 5pm. Must have been between server shifts - it was a little slow on the food but not low on the kindness and good service. Started with Pot Stickers. Ordered Choochee Salmon and Eggplant Stir Fry with pork. Brown rice. And a pot of jasmine tea. The salmon sauce was like peanut butter and red coconut curry flavor. Both dishes had veggies done near perfect. My eggplant was a tad over cooked but still was good. The stir fry sauce was delicious. Pot Stickers came out steaming HOT and the dipping sauce was good too. Portions were adequate and kept me from overeat. I took a small box home with leftovers. Lots of tables so might be good for groups but if you come with a large party maybe call ahead and make sure they'll have an extra server. Our server was holding it down - phone orders, to go, bussing tables, taking orders and bringing out the food. She was great!

Tomkha Soup
Amanda H.

The food is sooo goood! We ordered a whole bunch of stuff to try. The server was super sweet. The restaurant is very unassuming as it is basically tucked into a strip mall. We ordered the Tomkha Soup, fresh rolls, cucumber salad, and something else I can't remember what it was called. Can't wait to go back. We wanted to try the Papaya Salad but they were out...so next time! As usual, we started eating before we snapped a pic.

Was in the area and decided to dine-in this time. The Vietnamese roll is now determined to be a favorite at this place! It was better enjoying them at the restaurant fresh and warm! Crunchy and very tasty! The yellow curry mild had a little (tolerable) kick to it. Love them potatoes and carrots in that dish! Although towards the end of our meal, it got near closing time, we did not feel rushed. Our server was nice with a quiet demeanor. Happy to report we actually finished our meal before closing time. I would recommend dining in!

Went there for my birthday recently and made reservations beforehand for a larger crowd since I know its usually a pretty small waitstaff (1-2ppl). Everything was delicious amd came out promptly. Only complaint was that we only ordered one dish slightly spicy, but several of the dishes came out hotter than it normally is. I was fine with it, but I know some of my friends struggled to eat some of the food. The waitress had confirmed our order when she left and correctly repeated back we only wanted one dish medium hot, so I dont know what happened. Still a favorite of mine, but would like to warn those who can't handle spicy food to be very clear when ordering what your spice tolerance is.

As soon as I walked in I was greeted by friendly staff at the front. I ordered the Chicken Cashew Nut, it was amazing, I absolutely loved it! I definitely plan on coming back again, and would recommend to my friends. I've ordered Cashew Nut at other restaurants before but in my opinion this was the best I've had so far. Restaurant inside is clean, quiet and roomy with a nice set up for seating. 5 Stars all around.

Red Curry

First time trying this place. It was completely empty when we walked in but was greeted with great service. For drinks, my family and I ordered the Thai tea and thai green tea. I wasn't a big fan of the Thai tea it was overly sweet in my opinion. The Thai green tea was pretty sweet too but I liked it a little better than the regular Thai tea. I probably wouldn't order it again. The soda tasted a little bit diluted/less carbonated than I would like it though. I ordered the tom yum with medium spice, mango fried rice, chicken red curry and pad thai medium spice. For the tom yum, the spice was perfect. It wasn't bad in taste I would give it a 7.5/10. The mango fried rice was the first time I've ever tried it. My family usually orders the pineapple fried rice. It seems like it contains the same ingredients as the pineapple fried rice but juice with mangoes there was an after taste to it due to a specific spice they put in it that I was not used to but it was very good. 10/10. I didn't try my family's red curry but did not hear any complaints. But wowwww the pad thai was 10000/10. One of the best I have ever tried. It was not lacking in flavor AT ALLL. very well done. I could tell prior to my visit that the pictures I saw on yelp did not disappoint. And having to try it in person confirmed it. Only thing is it didn't really taste like there was any spice but the flavor was outstanding. I can't wait to come back again! Hopefully next time I will make more room for the mango sticky rice :p

Hot and sour soup
Laurie M.

Nothing special about the decor, but this place has excellent food! I especially couldn't stop with the Pad Thai - soooo delicious. The sweet & sour pork was a little skimpy on pork. Parking is easy for large groups.

Khao Soi and Panang Curry with White Rice

This is my first time here. I was greeted immediately with the sweetest server. The food was AMAZING! The curry was so rich with flavor and so was the Khao Soi. The Khao Soi is almost like a green and yellow curry noodle soup. Definitely something new that I've tried and I loved it. Consider trying it if you come:) I also had the Thai tea which is a must have at any Thai restaurant and it was also tasty. The atmosphere on a Saturday was quiet & calming. Restaurant is clean and relaxing. Check this place out. Would definitely come again.

Mario M.

Giving a 3/5 star because my dish really wasn't all too tasty. Got the sweet and sour pork and tasted like ketchup ontop of pork and it was mainly veggies on my dish. Everyone else's dishes were all pretty good though. The pad Thai and cashew chicken both tasty as well as the coffee which comes with a free refill. Super cute and quiet and clean inside. Will reevaluate rating next time I go and hopefully my dish will be up to par. Service was great as well.

The service was excellent from start to finish! There were four of us, and of course, we all ordered something different because that's the best way to try a little bit of everything! And let me tell you... the portions are HUGE! This is definitely a place where sharing is a great idea. My daughter ordered the Khao Soy with chicken, made with a creamy curry sauce, roasted bell peppers, onions, cilantro, roasted peanuts, carrots, sliced red onions, and crispy egg noodles. So much flavor packed into one bowl! I ordered the Mango Chicken Yellow Curry with vegetables, potatoes, carrots, yellow onion, yellow curry paste, and coconut milk. It was delicious! My son-in-law went with the beef option with the same veggies, and my grandson ordered the pot stickers and chicken fried rice. Everything came out hot, fresh, and absolutely yummy! There was so much food that we had plenty to enjoy and share. And then came dessert... because apparently we weren't full enough! We shared the mango rice, and WOW--what a great way to finish an already excellent meal. Sweet, delicious, and the perfect ending! This was such a great family meal. Great food, great atmosphere, and GREAT staff! We truly enjoyed our experience and will definitely be back. If you haven't tried this place yet, give them a try--you won't regret it!

Authentic, delicious Thai food! Ambience is warm and inviting, service is friendly and fantastic,…read moreenvironment great for any outting including friends, parking is generous and easy in a not-so-busy plaza, and prices IMO are a bit high but worthy of the food served. Their interior design and artwork is probably the best I've seen in Roseville. Bountiful crayons and coloring for kids - convenient for parents! Every item we ordered was absolutely muy fantastico! Love that you can specify spice levels 1-4 for many of their food selections. Personally, I feel level 2 spice is our sweet spot (we tried 3 and it was a bit too much). My take? 1 Mild spicy, 2 Moderate spicy, 3 Very spicy, 4 Killer hot spicy. Our mix this visit - MTK money bags, pad thai with shrimp (no spice), pineapple fried rice with shrimp (no spice), panang curry with chicken (spice level 3 - bit much for us), thai iced tea (1 dine in free refill! Not for takeout though), sticky rice, and beef salad (least favorite, not worth the price tag IMO). Excellent Thai food and absolutely worth a visit for foodie lovers locally! Probably not worth going far out of your way but great spot to satisfy your Thai cravings if you're in the area.

nice place with great ambiance. staffs are ok. for foods:…read more 1. pineapple fried rice: recommended!!! taste is good with lots of chicken ( actually, i was asking for pork but i did not bother complaining or asking them to change it ) they also put some raisins and of course, pineapple. must try!!! 2. beef salad: another recommended menu. the meat is so tender and dressing is great. just a suggestion: put a bit more lettuce if possible... 3. bangkok rack of lamb: the meat is so tender and juicy but will say the sauce on the meat and even on the side is too salty for my tastebuds. this menu comes with rice and you can choose from: white sticky rice, brown sticky rice, jasmine rice, brown rice, or blue rice. i chose blue rice at that time and i am sure that they mix with coconut cream when cooking it so rice taste is so good... 4. mango sticky rice: this one you can also choose either with black sticky rice which tends to sweet taste or blue sticky rice that tends to savory one. the mango is so sweet ~ must try!!! overall, my one and a half hours trip to sacramento was worth it by choosing this restaurant for meeting with a friend. will come again for sure if there is another trip to go there...

Thai Basil offers appetizing large portions. It is located in the Skechers plaza on Douglas Blvd…read moreclose to the 65 exit. I ordered the Pad Mee Kow or Drunken Noodles with Beef just based off Yelp photos. I don't normally order this dish, but it's the best I've had. Noodles intact and not stuck together. Lots of beef. Not the most tender meat, so maybe pork would be better. On my next lunch visit, I ordered Pad Ka Prow with Ground Pork & Brown Rice and a small Crystal Noodles Soup. You can choose a spice level from 1 (mild) to 5 (most spicy). I chose level 3, but I probably would be happier with level 1 or 2. Choice of jasmine rice or brown rice. I enjoyed the chewy texture and appearance of the brown rice. Pad Ka Prow is tasty. I loved the Crystal Noodles Soup. It's seasoned well with lots of ingredients, like chicken, wood ear mushrooms, and Napa cabbage. There are 5 different soups that you can order as a Small portion, including Tom Yum, Tom Kha, and Wonton Soup. I look forward to trying more soups. I liked the ambiance, pretty Thai decor, muted green dining room, and easy listening music, often love songs. Thai Basil would be a good restaurant for a date. Service was willing to answer my questions and identify dishes from photographs for me.

This is a little hidden gem. At 300+ reviews with 4 stars, I'd overall say this is a win. We ate on…read morea Monday night and it had several customers even close to closing time. Most people had take out containers meaning the portions are large We got the pad see ew and the kha soy. I was really thankful for their kha soy as it tasted very fresh. The soft and friend noodles were perfect. Good amount of vegetables. I would maybe add a little bit of broth if I could bc the noodles soak up the thick broth very quickly. They warn you that this places spicy level is thai level. 1-5 is the goal. We got a 2 and it was already pretty nice and spicy. I am glad they let us know. Inside is quaint and cute. Outside the area can appear sketchy

I had Pumpkin Curry again, but this time asked for the spice level to be between 3 and 'Thai Hot', which I found perfect. My husband had Pra Ram with tofu.

So another winning meal.

Having becoming more of a regular here I love the owner here! She always has a smile on her face…read morewhen she is out and taking care of customers at the tables. On Sundays, she's in the kitchen cooking and turning out amazing dishes as well! Last Sunday I brought vegetarian family over for lunch and we ordered my goto safe and tasty silver noodles. It is made of mung bean which gives this clear noodle look and quite chewy. The flavor is a good balance of sweet and savory but not spicy at all unless you tell them to. Wife had their spring rolls and kids had drunken noodles no spicy. They are very accommodating with all sorts of requests like no eggs no onion no garlic etc and wanting soft tofu rather than fried tofu. I saw how many new specials they have plastered on the window and inside entrance, I knew I had to bring my parents over this Sunday! We came in today and order the crying tiger. We do wish it to be rarer for more soft texture but the flavor was great. My parents liked the ocean in love with the lobster tail, shrimp, and scallops over spiced veggies. The BBQ pork ribs was another safe choice of mild and savory Sweet flavor while the meat was tender. I didn't try the tom yum shrimp fried rice but my parents liked it as it has coconut flavor and it was literally a mountain of fried rice! Spicy though and I had to refrain while letting my GI heal from recent injury. Upon placing the orders, the owner quickly came out to see if it was really us! That's how we found out she cooks in the kitchen as well when she is needed in there. Always a pleasure and loving the innovation of new dishes. We also love their curry puffs! Come eat local and experience it yourself! I personally like sitting by the windows with the bright ambiance during summer time
