    My cousins favorite Vietnamese restaurant to go to! They took us here for dinner Sunday night. We have been here before. Not my first time. Overall the service is quick and there's a large menu with everything you could want. Place is bigger than your typical Asian restaurant. Lighting is good with ample seating. I ordered the Bun Bu Hue, my sister got the vermicelli salad, one of my cousins got pho and the other ordered a seafood stir fry. My cousin also ordered the fried squid as an appetizer and it was delicious. My BBU on the other hand wasn't as good. It lacked flavor and non of the aromatics was present. They do not serve it with banana blossoms, shrimp paste or blood. It's been somewhat americanized in my opinion. Next time I will definitely stick to the pho.

    Newly remodeled space and it looks fantastic. Was I a little disappointed by the minimal Christmas decor... yes I was but the food was still fantastic as ever. We actually make spring rolls for Christmas every year but this year we weren't going to have as many guests and decided to make it easy and order instead. Saigon Basil did an amazing job and we still had our "traditional" dinner without the prep and cooking!

    Saigon basil appetizer

    Been coming here for over 10+ years and food and service is always . Staff is very friendly and helpful. Ordered the Saigon Basil appetizer dish ($36.95), came with more than enough food for 2 ppl...grilled pork, chicken, shrimp fried paste, egg rolls and usually veggies for spring rolls.

    Steak lemon salad

    Food here is absolutely delicious and abundant! We have been here a two or three times before, but it had been a few years now since the last time. The restaurant is always busy, but service is pretty fast, especially if you know what you are ordering. This time around my husband had a steak soup, and the medium size was more than enough for him. I ordered a steak lemon salad and it was ginormous, I think I was only able to eat a third of it. It had so much meat!!!! The dressing was fantastic, with the perfect amount of spice for me. It is also very clean, and spacious. Well priced too!

    Combination special noodle bowl

    Walked in and the place was clean and bright with quiet, peaceful music- all great things! I ordered the special noodle bowl that had beef, pork, shrimp, chicken and egg roll. It came with the usual cucumber, pickled carrot and radish but also came with bean sprouts and peanuts as well (I asked for no peanuts). The meat was incredible! So flavorful and a decent portion which made a perfect noodle to meat ratio. My bf loved the pho and I did too, the broth was piping hot and was mild, no strong anise flavor like some I've had other places. Finally the boba- yum! Sweet but not syrupy. The service was quick and kind, which I appreciated. I'll be back soon!

    Pho #3
    Sara C.

    Newly updated and new management, same management team as the Hot Pot Spot on 136th. They remodeled and ripped out the old carpet and put in new flooring. The pho was tasty but definitely noticed the pho toppings/meat was less than the pho with the last management. Maybe they are still trying to find their groove but the bowls are smaller than before too. Service is great and overall great experience.

    #75

    Saigon basil has still got it this is my go to for Vietnamese food hands down.the ambiance has enhanced from last year I like that they are updating it slowly it looks cleaner and beautiful, service is always great we did have a little miss communication but we got it taken care of and they were great about fixing it, no I'm not sharing what happens it's not relevant. I love to order the appetizer #75 it is more then enough for a full meal for me it comes with pork egg rolls, rice noodles with peanuts and green onions on top, lettuce leaves, cucumber,fresh basil, bean sprouts, fresh mint, tomato, pickled carrots and radish, and fish oil sauce which I don't like so I don't put it on it. I am not sure how to eat these but I make like a taco is the best way to explain it and use soy sauce as my sauce refreshing and DELICIOUS!! I will always come back for these.

    Spring Roll/Appetizer Platter

    Have been here for both Pho and tried a variety of plates. Everything is hot and fresh, reasonably priced with great flavor. Can't go wrong with their pho but have also gotten their appetizer platter which is really great value. The y are very attentive to their guests with great service. Inside the dinning room lots of room for large parties, has a few fish tanks that are fun to look at.

    shrimp and pork spring roll

    I had heard before getting in that I would need to get Vietnamese food in Denver, and that Saigon Basil was a go-to for many. I wasn't disappointed! I got in late due to a delayed flight, and called to see if I could still get food. The staff were very accommodating and let me place a pickup order near closing time. The woman in the phone was very helpful in picking something despite me not having read the menu. When I actually got the food, I was pleasantly surprised by both the quality and the quality I received. Everything tastes amazing, and the recommended mixed noodle bowl was spot on. Summer rolls were hefty and delicious too - they could be a small lunch on their own for some. I'm always more than happy to visit more unassuming spots with authentic, no frills cuisine!

    Combination beef pho
    Melissa L.

    Came here for dinner on our way back to Denver from the Rocky Mountain national Park. This restaurant is huge and packed for dinner on a Tuesday night. We ordered the spring rolls, pork chop rice plate and my husband got a combination pho. Portion sizes were HUGE!!! This is an out of town review so I'm not sure if this is a Denver portion size or just this restaurant portion size but my husband and I were amazed how big the portion sizes were for the price. I love the spring rolls and the sides that came with it. The mint added such a nice fresh element to the bite. Still can't believe I got two big pieces of pork chop with my meal. Pork chops were a little thick, but still tender. My husband was not able to finish his pho which is a rarity. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who is craving Vietnamese food. Overall 4.6/5

    Be prepared for A LOT of food. Extensive menu. Good service and food was good also. Easy to fine with a huge sign out front. Was busy at 4 in the afternoon!

    If you're up in Westminster area and you have a craving for Vietnamese food, Saigon Basil is the best choice in this area. Even on a Monday evening, it was quite busy. This is a pretty big space so there's plenty of seating. Staff is quite attentive and food comes out pretty quick. The recommended dishes: the 3 treasure drink (Che bac mau) and the appetizer platter and the Bo luc lac. So delicious. The appetizer spring roll platter comes with a lot of food so definitely an item to share with the group. It comes with a nice amount of rice paper as well. The Bo luc lac comes with a lot of meat that just sits on top of lettuce with rice on the side. The 3 treasure drink is such a nice dessert. Also if you want something to drink, get the fresh lemonade. The skips: wings. The wings were sad and lack flavor. No seasoning whatsoever. I wish they were like garlic butter wings or fish sauce wings. Skip it.

    Nice family restaurant. Could see all generations from kid to parents to grandparents. Promising…read moresign for a Hong Kong bbq restaurant. Came in maybe an hour before they closed. They ran out of roasted duck so if you're looking for that recommend not coming in late. Got the double meet dish with char siu pork and roasted pork belly. Tasted good, but pretty fatty for both. Not sure if they already used up the good parts of the meat and that's what they had leftover, but this is what's keeping them from being a 5. Otherwise it tasted good, I could see the potential. The stir fried beef noodles is as classic as it gets. No notes , adding sriracha is a personal touch for me and it tasted familiar. Otherwise, open to trying it again if their meat isn't as fatty. Prices were reasonable too.

    Uncle Henry, thank you for making My husband and I feel right at home. We'd been on the road 6…read moredays, and on our way to Idaho, we made a pit stop in Colorado, and on my Yelp hunt for vittels, I discovered Uncle Henry. The gentleman working the register, who then cooked our order, and served us Our food was very accommodating. I could tell he appreciated our business and respected My husband-who was at first hesitant to dine there. Uncle Henry's personality and communication changed that and made him feel comfortable and at ease. Thank you, I really appreciate you for that. My Husband enjoyed everything I ordered. The combination fried rice, lo mein, and chicken wings were made to order...hot, fresh, and delicious. It isn't a large restaurant, it's more like a take-out joint, with dining in as an option, we dined in and got to enjoy the warmth present of this family run business. We needed that. I don't know where GOD may lead us next on this journey called life, but if we're ever in Westminster, CO again, you can expect to see us. Til next time.

I looked at all the prices on the glass and everything was $2.60 a scoop. I ended up getting hot and sour soup and two very small egg rolls and left paying over $17. I tried to talk to both the people there about specials they might have, one sitting down on his phone and another lady behind the counter, but neither spoke much English. Got home and it was mostly vegetables very little beef in my broccoli or chicken in my mushrooms. Needless to say I probably won't go back.
