While this restaurant may have mixed reviews, I have nothing but high praise for the meal we had. My niece and I are both big fans of Thai food, so we decided to give this place a try. We ordered the Crab Cheese Wontons, Pad See Ew, and Basil Fried Rice. Everything arrived hot, tasted fresh, and was packed with flavor. The portions were also generous, leaving us with leftovers to enjoy the following day. The rest of our family ordered burgers from another restaurant, but we were both extremely happy with our meal. I would happily order from here again the next time I'm in Denver. read more

The service at this place is excellent and our waitress was so kind. The egg drop soup was delicious and perfect for a cold day. The drunken noodles were too hard, could've have used a few more minutes. The sauce didn't taste like anything. I thought it was interesting that they do not have any spice level modifications to their food. read more

Sub-par run of the mill "Asian" food. Ordered the pad se-Lee and was extremely underwhelming (very little sauce that was flavorless and chicken that tasted slightly off and a weird texture). Vegetable spring rolls were nothing special at all. Go somewhere else. read more

This place has a lot of mixed reviews... but we always get the same thing, and the things we get, we love! And the service is always nice. We love the sesame chicken-- the drunken noodles-- and my favorite, the Panang Curry. I get Panang Curry at nearly every Thai restaurant I go to. One time last year I was in NYC, and my friend said, "we're going to my favorite Thai Restaurant." So of course, I ordered the Panang Curry... and it was such a disappointment to Thai Basil's Panang. I like the crispy vegetable egg rolls, too. To be fair, I've never dined in, and I don't frequently stray from the things I like. All this to say, if you're reading this, give them a shot:) (And order the Panang Curry) !! read more

Thai basil is just a great restaurant overall. I love the food, there are so many options to choose from and it's a great price . The inside ambiance is wonderful and it felt like a breath of fresh air. I have ordered take out and sat down at the restaurant and both times the food and service were absolutely amazing. This is one of my Denver favorites. read more

I have been ordering from here via UberEats for months up until recently. Unfortunately i don't have any pictures but the food started off amazing! I was ordering weekly as my Friday or Monday treat for myself but i had to stop because the quality changed. I was getting the Pad Thai Thai Hot combination meat (chicken, beef, and shrimp) but the last few times it was very sweet with very little meat. I did leave a review via uber after each order but still worth a try. I will come in person also but wanted to leave this. read more

It may just be the California in me (we have the best asian food), but after a long day of traveling, I was so excited to have some Thai food delivered via Uber Eats. I was so disappointed when it arrived because I don't know what this is, but this ain't Thai food...the meat and the noodles were not what. traditional thai food dish has. I could make a better Pad Thai recipe than this myself. read more

This is quite possibly the worst Thai food I've eaten. Visiting Denver for a few days and wanted some Thai. Ordered Mongolian beef, noodles and crab wontons. Nothing was good and i mean nothing. The noodles not good, wontons were like rubber, beef was OK. Bland, no flavor. I will say I think this has a lot to do with CO being a landlocked state? I am from Nor Cal where we have some of theeee best Asian foods out there. No diss to this restaurant or the staff, but this place is not it. read more

This is the worst Thai / Vietnamese food I've probably ever had! I got the rice soup and the chicken pho.... I don't know what they use for their meats but the chicken and the beef were very questionable. Very rubber like and not meat like at all. The rice noodles were not very good either. Broth wasn't bad. I was really excited because they labeled their pad Thai as gluten free and have dietary labels on their menu.... This was a big bummer. At least the herb garnishes were fresh. read more

Ordered Pad Thai chicken medium spice. Food delivered and the noodles were swimming in sauce. Chicken was smashed and rubbery. I only ate 1 piece of chicken. I have had Pad Thai all over the country and this was by far the worst. Sad to see. read more

I ordered on DoorDash, the food was quick, which I appreciate but the crab cheese Rangoon's had little, if any cream cheese. The rare beef pho was well balanced as far as meat to noodle to broth ratio, but the broth was not flavorful. As an avid pho eater, I will not be back read more

I got fried rice & potstickers and honestly both were super disappointing. Was just looking for some quick carry out and this was not it. I would choose elsewhere for thai! read more

This place is like the Salvation Army of Thai food. I ONLY order here when I'm too poor for real Thai food. Nothing is ever as ordered. My Tom Kha I got medium heat and my 9 m old baby is sipping it. No heat at all. The chicken is always super soft and weird texture. The ramen today was meh. Not bad not good. Again it's the thrift store of Thai food. Worth the gamble if you're too broke to get real Thai food. Haven't gotten sick yet read more

I order via DoorDash so I'm not sure about what this location looks like, parking, etc. However, my food was ready pretty quickly on a Friday night - prime time to order dinner. I ordered the Pad See Lew with Beef and the Asian Chili hot wings. It was a lot of food! The pad see lew had lots of sauce and beef. The noodles were al dente style cooked but good. The chicken wings were cooked well - crispy outside with juicy inside - however, they were not spicy or had much taste. There was siracha and hoisin container (like what you'd put in pho as dipping sauce but I did not use it. read more

I read mixed yelp reviews before heading to this restaurant. I gathered info on the best and worst dishes. So, I sadly didn't order pad Thai, but I did order pangang curry from other's recommendations. It. Was. Wonderful. The spice level was mild-medium and it was just enough heat to give that slow burn between bites. Of course curry is always in huge portions so I ate it the next day and it was even better. 5/5 for this dish. Next, we had the orange chicken. I saw 0 reviews for it but we decided on something sweet to offset the spicy, savory curry. The chicken seemed of good quality and it was perfectly crispy. Every piece had a crunch coated in that sweet orange glaze. It was perfectly cooked and we were pleasantly surprised. The broccoli was perfectly cooked but a little cold when we got it, 4/5 for this dish. The service was prompt, drinks were filled immediately, and the waitress even turned the tv off behind me when I asked to turn it down some so we could not talk over it - which I thought was a kind gesture. Inside it's a pretty clean and basic restaurant. Perfect for a hang with friends or a quick lunch. read more

I ordered this via GrubHub for lunch so I did not get to experience the service or the ambiance. I got a chicken pad Thai and the wok toasted potstickers. The pad Thai was a great portion and tasted okay. My gripe was with how greasy it was. The potstickers were great! Will probably give it another try and try their curry maybe. read more

I ordered from here through Uber eats. After I ordered though I looked up on Yelp & was worried about the low star review. I ordered chicken pad Thai with added vegetables, I asked for broccoli & carrots. When I received my order it was still hot & fresh. This is my favorite type of pad Thai, not too sweet & just the right amount of sauce. So I have to say I was pleasantly surprised & would order from here again! read more

Great food, good portions, good value. If you are interested in Thai food, don't hesitate to get it from here! This was delivered, so I can't speak to the service or ambiance of the restaurant. read more

Hilariously overpriced, truly atrocious Thai food. Nothing I've ever ordered from here has been good. To Thai Basil: quit your jobs and find something else, or put a fucking ounce of pride into your work. Some of the worst Thai curry I've ever had in my life. read more

Tried this place via DoorDash and it was good! Ordered the - 1. Beef pad Thai 2. Chicken Panang curry 3. Fried rice 4. Fresh spring rolls Portions were generous and we have plenty of leftovers! The only comment I have is that the peanut dip for the fresh spring rolls was too sweet - needed to add hot sauce and soya sauce. Would order from there again! read more

Thai Basil is located Downtown Denver,right adjacent to the Jewish Health Saint Joseph Hospital.We went 8 miles out of our way to find some Thai food since we needed something fresh to eat before our flight back to Minnesota.We all had spring rolls on our minds! The place looked clean.Typical fish tank and other decor that most Asian restaurants have in them.It was around noon and there were a few people in the place...lunch must have been slow that day? We ordered the fresh spring rolls and crispy vegetable rolls for appetizers.They came with a peanut and sweet and sour sauce that were good! I had the sesame shrimp and my party ordered sesame chicken,two types of pho,orange chicken and pad Thai.All reports were good.The sesame chicken was reported to be all white meat.No chicken tenderloin here.My shrimp was ok...a little too much breading which is always a concern of mine.The flavor however was perfect! The fried rice was over cooked but flavorful! When passing through Denver again I would check them out again. Parking was available around back. read more

Quick service and friendly staff. The beef had a weird taste to it though. Very chewy consistency and just not the best. The combination noodle bowl was good, shrimp flavor was in point! Pho was good too. read more

Went here on 9/8/23. Fun atmosphere. Very friendly and attentive staff. Went here for lunch. Looks like they have lunch combos. Food was really good. Definitely recommend. There was a large group of us and they didn't mind. Will be back for sure. read more

The worst "Thai" food I've ever had in my life. 1. The drunken noodles bear almost no resemblance to actual drunken noodles -- the noodles themselves are thick and narrow like fettuccine. And the sauce lacks any hint of authentic palm sugar / tamarind flavor. 2. I ordered the dish "spicy" (one short of Thai hot) and there is not one fleck of spice detectable anywhere. It's sweet and that's it. 3. I requested utensils and napkins etc, and got one fork and no napkins. You'd think with 2 items you'd at least get 2 forks and 2 napkins. I am at a hotel and it's a pain to get utensils. Thankfully I didn't need them, because the noodles went into the trash. Avoid this place at all costs. read more

Ordered through Uber eats. Food was good for the most part. Tom Yum soup (called Thai Spicy Soup here) was great. On the salty side, so I ended up waking up all night to drink water, but good overall. I also enjoyed the pad Thai (make sure you type in your spice level, they don't prompt you to do so), and the mango cake. The items I did not care for were the crab Rangoon, which was too small for the price, with no crab, and I was disappointed that the only drink they offer was boba tea. Lastly, as someone else pointed out, they did not include plastic ware, although I ordered it, which is challenging when you're staying in a hotel. read more

The pad see lew was terrible. Noodles were basically fettuccine from the grocery store. Had no flavor as well, double one star wammy.

Crab cheese wontons literally had no filling in them. The drunken noodles were not cooked all the way and the chicken was chewy. 10/10 would not recommend. read more

When we first walked in, it was freezing cold, and smelled like garlic! So our first thought was we wanted to sit outside, even though no one was out there the waitress said it was fine! I ordered the milk tea boba and would not get it again. The boba was hard and sticky, and the milk tea was not sweat at all. But the pad Thai was really yummy. I got it with tofu and would definitely order it to go next time! read more

I once had a really good Green Curry from here, but, since then, I've ordered two pretty much inedible meals--Chicken Pho, and the Chicken Coconut Soup. The chicken was oddly textured and rubbery in both. The Coconut soup, I couldn't eat; it is described as spicy and is supposed to include chicken, mushroom, and onion. I had to pay for the chicken. I received three pieces of onion and no mushroom. The "broth" was like drinking thick, unseasoned coconut milk. read more
