    Pretty spacious, clean, modern Vietnamese restaurant. Very delicious food and good service. We got bo luc loc and seafood. It was very delicious. Highly recommend this Vietnamese restaurant.

    Newly remodeled space and it looks fantastic. Was I a little disappointed by the minimal Christmas decor... yes I was but the food was still fantastic as ever. We actually make spring rolls for Christmas every year but this year we weren't going to have as many guests and decided to make it easy and order instead. Saigon Basil did an amazing job and we still had our "traditional" dinner without the prep and cooking!

    Saigon basil appetizer
    Hannah C.

    Been coming here for over 10+ years and food and service is always . Staff is very friendly and helpful. Ordered the Saigon Basil appetizer dish ($36.95), came with more than enough food for 2 ppl...grilled pork, chicken, shrimp fried paste, egg rolls and usually veggies for spring rolls.

    Steak lemon salad

    Food here is absolutely delicious and abundant! We have been here a two or three times before, but it had been a few years now since the last time. The restaurant is always busy, but service is pretty fast, especially if you know what you are ordering. This time around my husband had a steak soup, and the medium size was more than enough for him. I ordered a steak lemon salad and it was ginormous, I think I was only able to eat a third of it. It had so much meat!!!! The dressing was fantastic, with the perfect amount of spice for me. It is also very clean, and spacious. Well priced too!

    Combination special noodle bowl

    Walked in and the place was clean and bright with quiet, peaceful music- all great things! I ordered the special noodle bowl that had beef, pork, shrimp, chicken and egg roll. It came with the usual cucumber, pickled carrot and radish but also came with bean sprouts and peanuts as well (I asked for no peanuts). The meat was incredible! So flavorful and a decent portion which made a perfect noodle to meat ratio. My bf loved the pho and I did too, the broth was piping hot and was mild, no strong anise flavor like some I've had other places. Finally the boba- yum! Sweet but not syrupy. The service was quick and kind, which I appreciated. I'll be back soon!

    Pho #3

    Newly updated and new management, same management team as the Hot Pot Spot on 136th. They remodeled and ripped out the old carpet and put in new flooring. The pho was tasty but definitely noticed the pho toppings/meat was less than the pho with the last management. Maybe they are still trying to find their groove but the bowls are smaller than before too. Service is great and overall great experience.

    #75

    Saigon basil has still got it this is my go to for Vietnamese food hands down.the ambiance has enhanced from last year I like that they are updating it slowly it looks cleaner and beautiful, service is always great we did have a little miss communication but we got it taken care of and they were great about fixing it, no I'm not sharing what happens it's not relevant. I love to order the appetizer #75 it is more then enough for a full meal for me it comes with pork egg rolls, rice noodles with peanuts and green onions on top, lettuce leaves, cucumber,fresh basil, bean sprouts, fresh mint, tomato, pickled carrots and radish, and fish oil sauce which I don't like so I don't put it on it. I am not sure how to eat these but I make like a taco is the best way to explain it and use soy sauce as my sauce refreshing and DELICIOUS!! I will always come back for these.

    shrimp and pork spring roll

    I had heard before getting in that I would need to get Vietnamese food in Denver, and that Saigon Basil was a go-to for many. I wasn't disappointed! I got in late due to a delayed flight, and called to see if I could still get food. The staff were very accommodating and let me place a pickup order near closing time. The woman in the phone was very helpful in picking something despite me not having read the menu. When I actually got the food, I was pleasantly surprised by both the quality and the quality I received. Everything tastes amazing, and the recommended mixed noodle bowl was spot on. Summer rolls were hefty and delicious too - they could be a small lunch on their own for some. I'm always more than happy to visit more unassuming spots with authentic, no frills cuisine!

    Combination beef pho
    Melissa L.

    Came here for dinner on our way back to Denver from the Rocky Mountain national Park. This restaurant is huge and packed for dinner on a Tuesday night. We ordered the spring rolls, pork chop rice plate and my husband got a combination pho. Portion sizes were HUGE!!! This is an out of town review so I'm not sure if this is a Denver portion size or just this restaurant portion size but my husband and I were amazed how big the portion sizes were for the price. I love the spring rolls and the sides that came with it. The mint added such a nice fresh element to the bite. Still can't believe I got two big pieces of pork chop with my meal. Pork chops were a little thick, but still tender. My husband was not able to finish his pho which is a rarity. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who is craving Vietnamese food. Overall 4.6/5

    Be prepared for A LOT of food. Extensive menu. Good service and food was good also. Easy to fine with a huge sign out front. Was busy at 4 in the afternoon!

    If you're up in Westminster area and you have a craving for Vietnamese food, Saigon Basil is the best choice in this area. Even on a Monday evening, it was quite busy. This is a pretty big space so there's plenty of seating. Staff is quite attentive and food comes out pretty quick. The recommended dishes: the 3 treasure drink (Che bac mau) and the appetizer platter and the Bo luc lac. So delicious. The appetizer spring roll platter comes with a lot of food so definitely an item to share with the group. It comes with a nice amount of rice paper as well. The Bo luc lac comes with a lot of meat that just sits on top of lettuce with rice on the side. The 3 treasure drink is such a nice dessert. Also if you want something to drink, get the fresh lemonade. The skips: wings. The wings were sad and lack flavor. No seasoning whatsoever. I wish they were like garlic butter wings or fish sauce wings. Skip it.

    I just had dinner here last night and it was amazing as always! My family and I usually order the Saigon appetizer dish which is HUGE and usually fills us up. We like it because you can make your own spring rolls and it is packed with veggies. We also got the Bo luc lac tonight and the sauce was perfect! The atmosphere is very casual but the perfect spot to dine with friends and family and share family style. The service is always great and it's definitely one of my favorite spots to get Vietnamese food north of Denver.

    I love this place for pho and decided to venture out and try something new from the restaurant. I am so glad I did; everything was amazing! For appetizers, we got crab cheese wontons and fried shrimp, both of which were delicious. We ordered sesame chicken, which was crispy and juicy. The beef broccoli had amazing flavor and plenty of meat. The chicken fried rice is the best I've had in a long time. I ordered this all to-go! Everything was hot and ready in 25 minutes. There were two large bags, and the kind owner offered to help me with them. I 100% recommend this restaurant.

    I went to this restaurant for the first time for my anniversary with my partner! We chose this…read morerestaurant because of the high reviews And it did NOT disappoint! We ordered a pound of shrimp w/ heads, pound of snow crab and a pound of king crab with all in sauce and hot! It was very delicious, lots of flavor and very good spice level for my Mexican taste buds the snow crab was our fave! We also ordered the chicken fried rice and Cajun fries - the fried rice was excellent! Very well seasoned and I ate it to cool down my mouth from the spicy boil I would definitely come here just to order some fried rice. My partner was raving about how tender the chicken was. The Cajun fries came out hot and crispy we added the Cajun seasoning they had on the table and I really liked their sauce that came with the fries! Overall was a great experience, I would have appreciated a second refill on my soda but that's all I can complain about . This place will be my go to place for seafood now! I recommend %

    Formal Complaint Regarding Experience on 7-9-2026…read more To the Management Team, I am writing to express my profound disappointment regarding my recent visit to your establishment on 7-9-26 Having visited several times in the past, I have previously enjoyed your shrimp platter; however, my experience this time was deeply unsatisfactory. My visit was marred by unprofessional and rude service from the staff members on duty. When I politely requested lemons, my request was met with dismissiveness. Furthermore, when we raised a concern regarding the quality of the fried rice which appeared to be plain white rice with frozen vegetables rather than the fried rice we have received in the past our concerns were ignored, and our request for a simple substitution of fries was flatly refused. I was also shocked to see additional line items on our bill for requests that are standard in the service industry. Specifically, I was charged $1.00 for a request for "extra crispy" fries, and I have previously been charged for simple accompaniments like lemons. Charging customers for basic food preparation preferences feels both petty and indicative of a lack of commitment to customer satisfaction. The combination of hostile service, a significant decline in food quality, and the nickel-and-diming of standard requests has made it clear that I will not be returning to your business. I believe it is important for you to be aware of how these practices are impacting long-term customers. I hope you take this feedback seriously to prevent other patrons from having similar experiences. You have lost a good customer. Will never come again. I hope others will not go. I am sure we will find place support and find good food.
