Pad Thai is amazing and the portions are huge. You’ll have enough to take leftovers home for lunch the next day.
The fresh rolls with shrimp are delicious! They're made with raw julienned veggies , basil and shrimp and wrapped in flat rice noodles and served with a thick, rich satay sauce with crushed peanuts
Be sure to try their Fried Ice Cream . Yes, you read that right. It sounds weird if you've never heard of it before, but it's delicious. My favorite is the green tea .
Try to beat the 12PM lunch rush if you can. Being seated at 11:55 as opposed to 12:05 makes a world of difference here. Lunch combos are all amazing!
Service sucks but the food is really good. The curries are all really good and well done. The duck choo chee is succulent and very flavorful.
The Tom Yum noodle soup is my favorite. Great service too!
Favs are: Chicken noodle soup (add veggies ) with a side of chili sauce . Also the Tofu Basil , the Spicy Tofu & the Beef Salad are delish.
Thai Basil’s wok! Awesome flavors of authentic Thai food
Great lunch specials ! Try the Lychee Juice or the Basil Limeade ????????
Curry was good, I was worried it would be too spicy but it wasn't. I can do mild/medium curry generally tho
Some of the best pad thai I’ve ever had!
Must try the local Singha Thai beer ! ????
Good portions of tasty food for prices that can't be beat on Newbury.
Ask for the spice rack! Makes the pad Thai even better. Plus, bring your appetite they serve huge portions !
Curry was yummy and spicy nice service too
Crispy pad Thai is very delicious!!
My friends and I ordered Tod Mun Pla (Thai fish cake ). Yummy!
I luv their Basil Fried rice that comes with an omelette . Very filling. :)
Spicy food , quick service , iced Thai tea
The shrimp mango salad is amazing!! The dressing it comes with is so delicious.
Green curry is quite amazing
Siam Chili Fish is the best.
If you like vegetable _ try the papaya salad and the basil spring roll (shrimp )
Mandalay Noodle ... 'nuff said (you won't find it on the menu). Couple it with their Thai Iced Tea (awesome!)
Try out the crispy pad thai . Dash of lime and a little hot sauce and your mouth be partying.
Mango sticky rice for dessert ????
Mango curry and lychee juice are brilliant..
I concur... HUGE portions !
Just left out angry because they forgot my order, gave part of my food to the table next to me (they realized it was mine), and then told me I lied that I had waited for 30 minutes. No tips for them!
Pad Thai is quick and delicious.
Best Pad Thai in town . Reasonable priced and place I go to meet friends
"Cah pu cah" means "thank you" in Thai. Say it :)
Drunken noodles
Very reasonable prices and HUGE portions !
Huge portions ! I always take half home.
tell the girls Phal send you and try out the crispy pad thai . Meow!
The Thai Basil chili scallops are delicious (a bit spicy too)
