Worst pho I have ever eaten ordered a combination Pho , old bean sprouts, some kind of meat that looks like thin brisket, almost didn’t see the rest of the ingredients they where hidden under 3 huge jalapeno slices. Will never eat there again . The first pic is basil house pho the rest are Pho bo ne. See the difference? Last 2 are real Pho.

Hidden gem. The minute I walked in, I knew I was going to be tasting some nice authentic food. Very causal spot and great atmosphere. The portion sizes were also incredible. First time I didny finish all my pho.

Friendly Restaurant, we ordered Goi Cuon {Fresh Salad Rolls}, Pan Fried Dumplings and Pho Dac Biet. Food was delicious and waited very little for our food. Location is outdated but clean and has a small parking lot area.

I will start this review by saying I have lived in Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam. Also my wife is from Thailand. While the flavor of the dishes were nice it is far from authentic. To me it tasted like someone who grew up in China trying to replicate Thai and Vietnamese dishes they had never had before.

I was heading back to my hotel from Galveston and wanted Thai food and saw this described as a hole in the wall type restaurant. Well those are the best because the food was great. I walked in and sat myself and about 5 minutes later the one person working in front took my order. I asked for it spicy but not too spicy and it was perfect! The waiter was fairly friendly, not rude. Overall if you are looking for a spot to get good Thai food try this place!

My first time ordering from the Basil House. My favorite is chicken Panang curry with white rice. I have had this meal at about 2 dozen or more Thai restaurants in the past. The Chicken was tender but the Panang curry sauce was nothing like any other I’ve had before. It tasted more like a really spicy red cashew curry. More like Chinese food than Thai. I was not impressed.

My husband had the (B2) Marinated grilled chicken with extra noodles. I had the beef lo mein (N5). We also had 2 orders of fresh salad rolls (K2). It was all so delicious! This is our 2nd time coming here. Athough the wait time might be a little long it is so worth it! My toddler absolutely loves it as well.
