    I came here on a Saturday night and they got our party of 5 in with zero wait. The sesame chicken was fantastic, some of the best I've had and I love that they serve broccoli with it. The crab cheese wontons were also fantastic, and I love that they serve these cute and complimentary pineapple boats. Service was fast and the atmosphere was nice and quiet. I'll definitely be coming back!

    Tasty food! I was in the area and stumbled upon this restaurant for dinner and am so stoked I did. I ordered the sesame chicken and my bf got the thai curry lime beef. Both of these dishes were so good and had tons of flavor! Not only was the food good, but the portions were great and definitely left me have leftovers to enjoy the next day. They also bring out a pineapple boat dessert at the end of each meal and it really was a nice way to round out the dinner. The staff here was extremely friendly and helpful and made our visit that much better. If you're in the area or just want some awesome food definitely stop by this place!

    We have been long time customers (10 years or so) but recently have had very disappointing food/experience. Ordered the appetizer ribs about a month ago and they were so over cooked and dried out we couldn't even eat them. Had a few orders where they missed some items. Called and they corrected. Ordered grilled chicken Vietnamese noodle bowl night before last and chicken was not cooked. Called to advise and they offered a credit for next purchase. There will NOT be a next purchase. Was a great place and sorry it has declined.

    This place is always good. Good is very tasty and the crab wontons always hit the spot! Got the Thai peanut chicken this time and dang it is good!

    The best spread! Sesame Chicken, Pad Thai, Fresh steamed rice, miso soup, eggrolls and wontons! NOM!

    This review is for take-out only! The hubs and I have ordered Thai food here twice now, and have to say this is our go-to and favorite place in the area. WHY? 1) The ordering process is simple - over the phone, or online. We order through the Eat24 app, making the process fast and efficient!When ordering online, you receive a complimentary order of crab cheese wontons! YUM! 2) Prices are very reasonable for the area - with each entree being around $10-$12/person! 3) Delivery is the fastest I've found. With an estimated delivery time of 45-60 minutes, drivers usually arrive around the 30 minute mark! Drivers are insanely friendly and make for a nice experience! 4) Food is delicious! I'm a sucker for drunken noodle and this dish is the best I've tasted! Recently I opted for the Pad Thai while my husband stuck with a traditional favorite - Sesame Chicken! Everything is fresh and full of so much flavor! 5) Portions are HUGE - leaving plenty for leftovers the next day! Now that we have found our favorite spot, I know we'll continue to get our Thai fix from Wild Basil!

    Enjoyed some delicious Thai tonight! We ordered the Pad Thai and the Pad Se Lew and it was delicious. Both meals had great flavor. Will definitely be ordering again!

    Have you had that yearning feeling where you miss your homeland food and need to go to a local…read moreVietnamese restaurant that can fulfill your needs? Well that's how I felt this morning, so VinaMeals was where I ended. I ordered two items, so join me and read my food journey... Just had bánh ít tràn, a Vietnamese, steamed sticky rice dumplings dish. This dish reminds me of my mom's cooking where she used to make us this dish all the time to eat for breakfast. Lots ingredients inside the these three dumplings including mung bean, wood ear mushroom, jicama carrot, onion, garlic, minced with pork and shrimp. It came with steamed bean sprouts, cucumber, and fish sauce to dip the dumplings or just pour over the dish. I felt the accommodating items didn't add any value to this dish, but boy, did these dumplings bring back good memory. Of course, when you are here, you have to get their small wonton soup. It is one of the best I have ever eaten. I believe the broth that is the star, and the wontons come very close but just a second too late. This small soup is very filling, and I always wonder if adding a bowl of plain rice into the soup will make this dish a complete meal. We will have to find out later. As I am sitting here writing this review, I am truly enjoying the atmosphere. Listening to the music over my head, I am sing a little bit too loud, louder than mouthing the words. My head is moving from side to side, and my feet are tapping. I found my happiness here even though we leapt/spring one hour ahead earlier today.

    I found this place specifically thru Yelp because it was featured on the "Top 100 Sandwiches" list,…read moreso I stopped by with a few friends during my visit to Denver. I must say... it deserves it's recognition. The Banh Mi here is excellent! I got to try the LEMONGRASS GRILLED PORK. The pork is well marinated with a slightly sweet taste. There is a good amount of meat inside. It typically comes with cilantro & jalapeños inside which you can always opt out. But I feel like the sauces & veggies inside paired so well together. The bread is super crunchy that you will be in a bread crumb mess afterwards. But, it's all worth it because it tastes great. My friends all loved it here. For a traditional Banh Mi experience, I would totally recommend this spot. Ordering is super easy. There is a machine in which you can order & pay through there or go straight up to the counter. The food will be ready fairly quick so you can be in & out within a few minutes. And there is a parking out front. So, there is no reason not to try this place.

    Was looking for a light lunch option while I was touring nearby DU, and found this place based on…read moresome recommendations. So glad I came, this place is fantastic. Service was great, food came fast, but most importantly, the banh mi was hella delicious. I wish it had a few more jalapeño, but I bet it's a local preference thing, and I'm sure if I asked, they would have added. Also, I'm kind of a pig when I am away from home (hence my search for something light), and I'm always concerned a sandwich doesn't fill me up, but I am stuffed. Way more satisfying than a Subway sandwich, although comparing the two is somewhat insulting to this banh mi. I added the combo that provides an egg roll and iced coffee (I was going to buy a coffee for $5 anyways, the combo is $4. No brainer). Coffee is also delicious, and much larger than I thought it would be. TL/DR - Highly recommend this place. I will come again next time I'm in the area. PS - Tables are clean, restrooms are clean. Bonus.

The menu is limited in the number of items but they are all over the map (in a *good* way -- really something for everyone). We ordered a Bahn Xeo crepe (not quite our bag, texture-wise). My wife ordered the Noodle Bowl (enjoyed tremendously). I ordered "Grandma's Meatloaf," which was actually tasty, if a bit crumbly, meatloaf, using noodles as the binding/moisture agent. They have very imaginative and tasty cocktails. SERVICE: Despite a very full house, service was pretty attentive and very pleasant. AMBIANCE: Decor-wise, the place is great -- large fans on the wall, baskets on the ceiling to mask pipes and ducts plus reduce noise levels, nicely attractive, and overall evocative of the Asian motif. The place was very crowded, and the only deuce was right by the door and the cold breeze -- but the staff made us feel welcome and the experience was just what we wanted. NET-NET: We had a fine meal, and enjoyed ourselves. Who could ask for more?

    Decided to come here because I was craving Chinese food and heard good things about this place…read more Figured I'd give it a try. We ordered the fried tofu (with peppers and onions), orange chicken, fried fish fillet, and veggie delight (mixed veggies). The fried fish fillet was definitely the standout. Perfectly crispy on the outside with a light, tangy layer of sauce that added flavor without making it soggy. Easily my favorite dish of the meal. The fried tofu was also really solid and flavorful with just the right amount of spice. The peppers and onions complemented it well without overpowering the tofu itself. The orange chicken was okay. I tend to compare orange chicken to Panda Express (probably unfair, but it's my benchmark), and this one didn't quite hit that same balance of crispiness and sauce. I think if it had a bit more meat within each piece, would be better. The mixed vegetables were decent but not something I'd order again. They felt a bit drenched in sauce and didn't have much depth in flavor. One of the highlights of the visit was meeting an elderly woman who helps out when it gets busy. She mentioned she was the former owner. She was incredibly kind, and we ended up having a really nice conversation in Mandarin. That personal touch made the experience even more memorable. Otherwise, really nice venue with lots of space and tables. Waiters always refilled my water, which is a good plus. Also gave me fresh rice when I took the leftovers to go. Overall, a solid meal with a couple standout dishes. I'd definitely come back for the fried fish fillet and tofu. Will be back to try their other dishes.

There was also zero indication whether you seat yourself or wait to be seated, so customers are left awkwardly standing around wondering what's going on. To make things worse, the entrance feels bizarre and rundown, like you're sneaking into the back of a storage building instead of entering a restaurant. If you want real wasabi, go to a proper sushi restaurant. This felt more like a watered-down imitation than a real dining experience. 1/10
