Reviews

Food is awesome here. The Pad Thai is full of flavor. Pho is great. Can’t go wrong ordering the pho. My kid ate all of her orange chicken so that must be good cuz she is a picky eater.

Number 1 Thai restaurant. Family owned. The charred pork with rice is amazing. The pad thai and pho is also very well done. I try and find reasons to go near Texas city to come here and eat.

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.

Great food, I've been here several times and tried something different each time, always excellent! So far the creamy red curry has been my favorite. I highly recommend Basil House.

This place is a gem. I absolutely love their food.. Everything I've tried, even the basic grilled dishes are extremely good. Do not drive past this place, give it a try. Awesome experience!

This is truly authentic Thai food. I order take out almost weekly. An absolute must to any order though is the spring rolls. They are THE best I've ever had in Galveston County.
