Spicy Basil - Menu

Spicy Basil is the perfect combo of very savory Eastern food and efficient service. It was a staple for me during COVID and remains one of my go too when I am craving for Chinese, Vietnamese or Thai prepared in a very tasty manner, in generous portions and by a great team of people.Food: 5/5

The pad Thai had no flavor in it and the chicken seemed undercooked. The hot and sour soup was CHUNKY with big globs of gelatin/mucus looking that I’ve never ever seen in a hot and sour soup. No flavor for that as well. I am very disappointed in the quality of this food and the flavor. I won’t be ordering again.

The food was overcooked, too salty, and drenched in sauce. The tiny pieces of broccoli were practically blended into the sauce, while the menu picture showed large, fresh broccoli florets. The sesame tofu was quite tasty once I removed it from the excess sauce. Unfortunately, I found a hair in the egg roll container, so I chose not to eat those, especially since they looked dark and shriveled from being overfried. View menu

We needed somewhere to eat nearby, and this place came up on the old googs. Everything we got (peanut chicken, peanut curry, pepper steak) was incredibly good! The portions were huge also the leftovers easily made a second meal. Highly recommend. If you’ve gotten door dash from here you may like it even better if you get it fresh from the kitchen.Vegetarian options: Probably about 10+ veg entrees. Good selection.Parking: About 10 15 spots out front. We found one right away.

I've been dining at this restaurant for years, and I've always loved the food. My go-to dish is General Tso's chicken, and I always request it extra spicy because I find the regular version too sweet. However, during my last takeout order, the General Tso's was incredibly spicy. I couldn't eat it, and I usually enjoy some heat. I'm not sure if there's a new chef, but it definitely didn't taste like the dish I've been enjoying for so long. I’ll give it another try, but if I experience the same issue again, I may have to look for a new place to eat.

Terrible service! The server seemed indifferent and unconcerned. I made the mistake of ordering a spicy dish and ended up paying $10 for just a side of rice and a spring roll because the main dish was too fiery to eat. I informed the server that the tofu and vegetables were extremely spicy (and I usually enjoy spicy food), but she simply said "okay" and didn’t offer any assistance. We also ordered a Thai Iced Tea, which the menu didn’t indicate came with milk—had I known, I wouldn’t have ordered it. Overall, it was a disappointing experience; don't waste your money here. This place has a lot of room for improvement. View menu

We ordered from here yesterday, and here's our experience with the food: The gyoza appeared to be deep-fried, with a texture reminiscent of funnel cake. The sweet and sour chicken was overcooked, with some pieces even burnt. The miso soup was decent, though it had a slightly tangy flavor. The egg drop soup had an off-putting sour taste. The yaki udon was acceptable; I've had better, but it had the fewest issues, which is why I'm giving this place 2 stars instead of 1. Honestly, I don't think we'll be ordering from here again. Every dish was at best mediocre, and the overall quality felt very poor. Even if the cooking had been better, the ingredients themselves seemed cheap.

June 2023: I would not order from here again. Management, please consider redesigning your menu to focus on dishes that your kitchen can prepare properly. Many one-star reviews highlight the same issues. Unfortunately, I had what I believe was the worst Thai food in the Denver metro area at this restaurant. I placed a DoorDash order and now regret spending my $5 credit on it. The Chinese food was decent, but the Pad Thai and Pad See Ew noodles were dry, clumped together, and lacked flavor. The Pad Thai appeared bright red, likely from food coloring, but it tasted completely bland. Don't waste your time or money here. Nice decor and atmosphere don’t matter if the food is awful.

*sigh*I wanted to like this place because it has decent prices (especially compared to the adjacent crab shack) and is decently close to where I live. What a cool little spot! The food tasted *fine*, but it wasn’t really exceptional. “Mango” chicken had pieces of mango, but the sauce by itself had nothing to do with Mango. The spicy beef was tender and delicious, but again not exceptional. Spring roll was kind of bland, but it had an okay crunch. We asked for steamed rice and got fried rice; we were told the fried shrimp was made in house and was massive, and what we got was just… hm. Not worth the price, I think.Staff was friendly and kind, knowledgeable and decisive. We liked her!Music was... View menu
