7 years agoGood Restaurant. Friendly Service and great food. My only thing I would change is the portions. They tend to be small for all the rice dishes. I think they should add more meat in all of them instead of me having to pay 3 dollars extra for extra meat.

8 years agoThe menu is robust, there are multiple options for spring roll fillings, and the bun is excellent, with perfectly seasoned meats. The seating is a little crowded, but the tables are beautiful. The restaurant seems very clean for a little lunch spot, too!

8 years agoThe wait-staff is always friendly but the food is pretty uninspired. I have ordered the "special" pho twice and it was fine but there are far better pho restaurants in the Tampa area. The meals my coworkers ordered seemed about the same, adequate but nothing special. It's good enough for a workday lunch but I wouldn't recommend it for any other occasion.

8 years agoMy first time ever in a Vietnamese restaurant and I loved it! The service was outstanding, the decor/ambiance was perfect and the food was awesome! I tried Pho for the phirst time (meatball & beef) and I WILL have it again. By using a fork and the spoon to twirl the rice noodles instead of using the chop sticks, did I commit a pho-paux? Someone in our party ordered a spring roll and it looked awesome. Gonna have to try one of those on my next visit.

9 years agoGreat additional lunch option. On the expensive side for what it is, but the food is fantastic. The service is personal and friendly, they even remember my order and check on us several times during our lunch. I highly recommend the pho and egg rolls.

9 years agoWhat I liked: the people working here are really really nice and customer service oriented. They want to make sure you get what you want and that you like it. Also, the food was very fresh in that the veggies are crisp and the food doesn't have that heated up taste/texture. I had spring rolls and pho and both were very good. The only tiny complaint, which is probably just my palette and my choice of pho, is it was a little bland. I had chicken pho and it was very good, fresh and filling, but I like mine with a little more taste to it. Then again, I am limited on spices because I have an allergy to wheat, so no soy, teriyaki or housin sauce for me. 😢 The inside of this restaurant is very clean and nicely put together. They people running this did a great job of decorating and keeping it very clean. I will continue to come here for sure.

9 years agoI love Basil and their fresh options for lunch. I usually start with the Spring Rolls (you will be drinking the dipping sauce at the end, trust me) and then get the Grilled lemongrass pork bahn mi which is a baguette with meat, pickled carrots, shaved cucumber and cilantro. Also love their blueberry mint iced tea. If you don't know what to get/aren't familiar with Vietnamese food, just order the special of the day... It's all great!

10 years agoFirst time going there and besides the fact that the food was amazing (I had the chicken pho, eggrolls, and strawberry lemonade) the staff were very nice and welcoming. Everything had a nice touch and I especially liked the fact that they served the lemonade in mason jars. Will definitely go there again to try out more of the menu.
