    Monday's aren't crowded or at least it wasn't this particular Monday. That was a plus for me as our food came out quickly. Appetizer and meal all at once. Our waitress Ashley was amazing! Her energy alone made the visit very enjoyable. She recommended dishes that are purchased the most. She kept our drinks topped off without waiting or looking for her. That's always great! She checked on us often so there was never a time that we were waiting or looking for her. Too bad they don't offer to go cups! But nonetheless the experience there was amazing! Hopefully Ashley is there on our next visit.

    This restaurant has been in Texas City for years. I came here with my family while down for Spring Break. The food was nice and hot and tasted good. The service was fast and friendly. It was very empty in the restaurant which I surprised me considering the quality of the food. I would visit again.

    Platter of sweet and spicy shrimp but as you can see was all onions. Hardly got any shrimp out of this $60 plus platter ‍

    I want to like it but damn paid $60 for a platter of onions! Ordered a platter of of sweet and spicy shrimp for a family gathering during the holidays and hardly had any shrimp in it. All onions ‍‍‍‍‍

    Yummy Entrées !

    We actually ate at the restaurant and we're the only eat In patrons there. It's very nice and clean inside, service was very good and food was excellent! Not sure why no other diners. However, they do an exceptional level of takeout. Very busy and obviously convenient . We definitely plan to visit again. Sorry about presentation we were hungry and started eating before I snapped a picture for review. Ordered beef dumplings for appetizer. Entrees were Vegetable lomein with chicken and Chingas (sp?) beef served with broccoli and steamed rice. Portions were generous and everything was tasty, especially the beef entrée.

It was an excellent little takeout Chinese place. But they sold that location and just operated their main store in Texas City -- which was still worth the drive from Seabrook (seriously). We like to travel around and try different places, but we always compared every neighborhood Chinese takeout joint to Qing Qing. Sadly, I don't think we'll be going back anytime soon. This past weekend, we burned some gasoline to go pick up an order of steamed dumplings, sesame chicken and hot & sour soup. Oh... and some plump egg rolls. When we arrived home and unpacked the bag, we were extremely disappointed. Though the service was quick, everything tasted like the kitchen was (too) quick as well. The chicken was as dry as the Sahara Desert, while the dumplings were as mucky as a Louisiana swamp. The soup was OK, though I had to doctor it, but the egg rolls were definitely Sysco ... and not the plump crispy goodness that we had become accustomed to. I wouldn't post a review like this if I thought a business was having a bad day. I mean, we all have bad days. But this was different across the board. Either the place was sold, or the owners went in a totally different direction.

There are plenty of Vietnamese restaurants in the area, but I felt Basil House deserves a go. Essentially a hole in the wall, it's located along Palmer Highway not too far from where it meets 146. The building may look small, but the interior begs to differ somewhat. This is the third time I use "Vietnamese," but what's so unique about this eatery is that it also offers Thai dishes. I decided to do both for my first visit; I ordered a Vietnamese grilled pork rice plate and Thai chicken skewers. My orders arrived at my table at the same time, which I thought was nice. Regarding the skewers, the chicken was pretty sizable. It was so tender that it came off the stick after a bite or two. I must admit it was dry, but still a nice way to start a meal. As for the main star of the show, the rice plate, I have nothing but immense love for it. The kitchen staff wasn't stingy with the amount of meat they placed on the plate. Tender just like the chicken, the grilled pork carried a sweet taste that got even better when dipped in the accompanying fish sauce. Oh, I forgot to mention the skewers and the rice plate had cucumbers, which raised the tangy factor. I capped everything off with fried banana and vanilla ice cream. A man who I assumed was the owner of the place acted as my server. He did an outstanding job, refilling my drink and giving me extra napkins. By my estimate, Basil House is the closest Vietnamese restaurant to my house. No need to travel at least ten miles if I want my fill in ice plates, spring rolls, or even pho.

Thank you for the extra love on the fortune cookies and keeping the shrimp fried rice full of shrimp and eggs just like it was when I was a kid. I love you guys deeply! See you guys next time & EVERY TIME I come on the island.

    A great little spot to stop when you're ready for a delicious Thai meal that really hits the spot!…read more I was passing through and had never tried The Garden Thai before, but I'm so glad I did. Thai is my favorite food, so I can be a little picky--it can definitely be hit or miss for me--but this place was a HIT. The Pad Thai was exceptional: flavorful, fresh, and perfectly balanced without being overly salty or sweet, which can sometimes happen with Pad Thai. The fresh spring rolls were delicious, and the Tom Yum soup was absolutely perfect. And I have to mention the service because it makes such a difference! A great attitude from the staff can completely change the vibe of a restaurant, and everyone here was attentive, welcoming, and very well trained. It made the entire experience that much better. Thank you for the delicious food and wonderful service! My visit was actually a while ago, but I'm finally taking the time to catch up on my reviews, haha--and this was definitely one I wanted to come back and write. Highly recommend!

I liked the relaxed atmosphere. I wanted to try sitting outside but it was too windy and there was dust and leaves and crap blowing around. The water tasted good, which is very rare for restaurants these days! Of course they served it in old plastic cups, though. They include the tax when 'recommending' a tip amount (of 20, 22 or 25%!) - um, that's a bit sketchy, guys.... So is not having the prices on the menu - it came to over $50 for two dishes and one drink.
