Idk. *shrugs* This time we got: Pad Kra Pao, Pad Se-Ew (beef), Yellow Curry (chicken), and Thai Style Papaya Salad for dinner. We each had a different favorite dish out of the three entrees... Pad Se-Ew was mine (noodle head), followed by the Pad Kra Pao (perfect flavor, not too strong on the basil, egg fried just right), then the curry last (I prefer green or red more). The salad was good, refreshing. No spice whatsoever, but we knew that (one of the girls can't handle as much spice). The winner of our dinner? The Thai Tea Flight! I love the option of flights anywhere I go. It gives you the chance to try all the flavors you're curious about without committing to one that you may or may not like. Man... these were amazing. If I had to rank the flavors-- it was a toss-up between the Original Thai Tea and the Ube but since this is the battle of the Thai Teas... the OG gets a slight edge. Both freaking amazing though (we ordered full sizes of these after). Obviously Thai Iced Coffee comes next but coffee should be it's own category. It wins on its own as coffee. The Green Thai Tea came in last for all 3 of us, I believe. It's good, just not as good as the other three... and it's definitely more fragrant? Idk the right word for it. Anyway, I'd make more stops here just for these drinks alone now that i know how good they are. Staff was amazing. Friendly. Attentive. Restaurant still very aesthetic. Their plating of the meals? A+. It was a very good dinner.

I did have to ask for the green sauce, which was amazing and ask for chopsticks as I was given a fork and spoon The sticky rice was OK. I prefer mine to be a little bit more sticky so I can eat it with my hands instead of having to use utensils . But the portion was a very generous portion. I ordered pork pad see ew. And it wasn't until I brought it home. I realize that I was given beef instead of pork. The flavoring was OK not very sweet kind of bland but when you add the green sauce to it, it elevated the flavors and was amazing. I don't think that I would eat any of the dishes without the green sauce as the flavor profile is not very strong. Previously, I did order a pork pot Thai, but again the flavor profile was not that great until the green sauce was added I would go again, just due to convenience and the addiction to the green sauce lol

We got there around 11:30 AM, and it wasn't busy at all, which was a huge plus! We got seated right away, and our server was super sweet and answered all of our questions. We started with the Thai tea, and I'm so glad we did because it was SO good! It was refreshing, and I'd definitely order it again. I ordered the Lunch Combo Special ($19), which came with two veggie egg rolls, Pad Thai, Panang chicken curry, and your choice of potato soup or salad. I went with the potato soup. It came with half of a potato in a broth, and honestly, it was way better than I expected! It had a lot of flavor. I thought you got a lot of food for the price. The veggie egg rolls were nice and crunchy, and the Pad Thai was really good, especially since it was my first time trying it. My favorite part was definitely the Panang chicken curry. It had so much flavor, and I'd absolutely order it again. Overall, this is such a good lunch spot! The food was really good, the portions were great, and everyone was so nice and helpful. My friend has also ordered their lunch to go before and said they still give you a lot of food, so that's good to know too. If you're in the area, I'd definitely recommend stopping by for lunch. The food was delicious, the prices were reasonable, and I left full and happy. I'll definitely be coming back!

It was my first time dining in, and the menu offered a wide variety of dishes, from noodles and soups to rice plates. I ordered the pineapple fried rice, drunken noodles, and papaya salad. Unfortunately, my experience had a hiccup: I was served Thai fried rice instead of the pineapple version and didn't realize it until I noticed the absence of pineapple. Just a reminder to double-check your order when it arrives. Service was a bit inconsistent. Some staff were occupied with side tasks like folding napkins, while others seemed hard to find or a bit inattentive. Overall, a mixed experience with good menu variety but room for improvement in service and order accuracy.

I really liked the spot, and we were looking for a Thai place we like that is closer to where we live - in the Bullard High area. We started off with vegetable egg rolls that were beautifully rolled and perfectly fried, and came with a delicious sauce. That was followed by a Chicken Larb Salad that was fresh and delicious. It was spicy - we requested medium spice on the two dishes that offered a range of spice - but perfectly seasoned. My only complaint would be that there were too few lettuce leaves to wrap in. Our main dishes were Pad Thai and the Thai Chili Basil Crispy Pork. Both were very tasty. The Crispy Pork was one of the best things I've had in a while. It too was supposed to be medium spiced, but interestingly not nearly as spicy as the Larb Salad. I only had a couple of bites of the Pad Thai, but those were very good, and my wife enjoyed it. Finally, for the amount of food we had, the price was very reasonable.

The pad thai is really good, like legitimately good not just "good for Fresno" good. The drunken noodles are my personal order every time and they nail the heat level, you can actually customize spice and they respect whatever you ask for.

Space is clean and simple, nothing fancy but comfortable. Service is always efficient and friendly. I've done both dine in and takeout and both experiences have been smooth. Its on Shaw so super easy to get to from basically anywhere in Fresno. Prices are totally reasonable, portions are filling. Honestly its just reliable and really tasty.

**Review from 2024 .......... Added here from previous trip**…read more So finally tried Thai Basil. Here is my honest review.... I am sooo glad we have something different in Madera. With that said here we go... Service.. service was super slow for an empty Sunday night. The young lady taking orders had no clue what sauces were on the dishes, had no clue what the ingredients were, she couldn't explain anything, she read the description on the menu back to me. She stated she had not had most dishes there. Her description of the cucumber salad was it's cucumber in a clear watery sauce.. ‍ I'm happy she was there to take our orders and she was nice. Presentation.. Presentation was quite nice for Madera! It was nice to see simple, yet pretty playing! The curry soup.. the flavors were quite muted for Thai food IMO. It was a good difference in texture having it topped with wontons. We ordered it medium spicy as well, which was great. The spicy pork flat noodle dish had great heat at medium spice level, wish I would have gone hot, since I like things SPICY . The texture of the pork was quite tough since they used a leaner cut of meat which was ok. I was surprised at the amount of meat on the plate for a noodle dish. Speaking of noodles they were almost sprinkled in in super small pieces, but the texture was on point. We wished there were more noodles. The broccoli seemed out of place I wish there was more Chinese broccoli which was cooked to perfection!!! The cucumber salad was delicious!!! We both stated we wished the onions weren't three inches long. I will definitely be making this at home! It would be a perfect pairing to grilled chicken or shrimp for a nice summer dinner!! We loved it!!! Saltiness of the food.. I think of Thai as having a few key flavors and the dishes are definitely on the saltier side, this was lacking salt, butttttt I prefer more salt than most people so not a true fair assessment. I was surprised there weren't any sauces on the table. Design and lay out.. it was very small inside but they did well with the space allotted and I loved the decor. The place needs a good dusting, we sat next to the wall and the wood was white with dust directly over the table. Overall it was a great meal considering I didn't have to cook, the plating was lovely, and it was something different for Madera! I wish them well!!! I'm happy they are here!!! Buttttttttt so far Coconut Cafe in Merced has a strong hold on our heart!! I can't wait to go back and try the Larb and the Pad Thai!

Love the tamarind flavor with an ample amount of chicken. I appreciate that it wasn't just noodles with a skimpy portion of protein.

Keep in mind this not Vietnamese so no pho menu. They have can sodas only. Clean bathroom and friendly service. Glad to see a good Thai/Lao establishment on this side of town!

I was recommended by a colleague to stop at Gem of Thailand but I have been here before it's just been a super long time.

They have a large variety of noodles here, pho, thai boat noodles, khao soy, khao poon, and also tons of other thai /cambodian / lao choices. We got a thai boat noodle, khao soy, and pork belly to share. The thai boat noodle and khao soy are delicious. It was my first time ordering khao soy I thought khao soy was a curry based dish, but my noodles were a pork based broth, still yummy though! The pork belly here is huge and served hot and super crispy, miles better than any other pork belly I've tried. The thai tea had an off putting flavor, like they had made it with soy mik? instead of condensed evaporated milk? Total was $83 after tax and tip, this place is pretty hole in the wall but even hole in the wall places have to charge more now to keep up with inflation. Great fast service !
