Amazing Basil & A Cup Of (Fremont)

Nicolette Siu 2 months ago

This is honestly one of the best Thai restaurants I’ve had in the East Bay! The food was absolutely delicious, the prices were very reasonable, and the service was amazing. I also love that the menu has some unique dishes you don’t usually see at other Thai restaurants. The restaurant itself is beautiful, with lots of flowers and a really nice atmosphere. It’s a great place to come with friends or family for dinner. Everything we ordered was so flavorful. There are plenty of refreshing sweet-and-sour dishes, plus some amazing fried options. The fried eggplant and fried fish were both so good. My absolute favorite was the crispy rice noodle with crab. It was made with real, fresh crab meat (not imitation crab!), and paired with the crispy rice noodles, it was seriously incredible. I would come back just for this dish. Definitely one of my new favorite Thai spots. Highly recommend!

A vegan menu sounded great and it had laksa soup so we were eager to try this place. A comfortably large restaurant with an abundance of fake colorful flowers. Unfortunately this place did not live up to expectations. Service was not with a smile. The crispy eggplant was visually beautiful and delightfully crispy Unfortunately there was very little eggplant and more crunch and it was served with ketchup 😕 Ice cold sugarcane juice was yum but there was so much ice you barely get any actual juice. The laksa soup was basically a mild coconut milk base with broccoli,raw cauliflower and a few tofu pieces topped with onions and some red cabbage and basil a lot of noodles and very little broth. Not laksa soup at all. Nope not coming back

Absolutely amazing place. Diverse selection of cuisines (from Thai to Viet to Chinese) with dishes that are unique and delicious at a fair price. Internal decor is creative and aesthetic. Always blown away by the shrimp and salty egg yolk fried rice, but it's hard to find a bad dish.

We went for a big family dinner where people had various diet needs. This place offers a separate vegan menu. As mentioned in other reviews, the QR code and online ordering did cause some confusion. The food came hot to the table, but they didn’t bring the pineapple rice we ordered and the vegetable pad Thai had eggs and fish sauce. The children didn’t like the smell. The lemongrass tofu was on the sweeter side. The papaya salad was spicy and well made. The roti curry was mild enough for the children as well and they liked the garlic bread. We arrived right before last call was taken, so it may be better for larger groups to arrive before 7:45 pm so the kitchen doesn’t close.

Food, drinks & boba were great, and the ambience was super cozy and welcoming. Customer service though was pretty much nonexistent. Ordering through the QR code was fine, but several items took a long time and needed multiple follow-ups. It was also really hard to get anyone’s attention and we had to literally get up and go to the counter to get help. Enjoyed the food and vibe, but the experience would’ve been much better with more attentive service.
