Basil Leaf Vietnamese Restaurant - Vietnamese restaurant in Albuquerque - 1225 Eubank Blvd NE, USA

I was a bit surprised by this place, thinking it was going to be a fine dining experience. It is a nice place with great food, but it has more of a family friendly feel to it. Nothing wrong with that at all. Staff were all genial and hustling, and dang, our food came out QUICK. Flavors and portions were spot on, and prices were quite reasonable. My buddy down here lives blocks away, and I'm ashamed to say that after visiting every year since 2016 (sans 2020), this was the first time we've tried it. Well, that square is filled now, and it was a delicious square at that...

Excellent Vietnamese restaurant. The beef broth was superb along with Rare Steak. I am in love with their affordable and market value prices. For most Vietnamese restaurants, this price is on par with others, but the quality is above notch. Our friend had the Lemongrass bowl and that looked mouth watering - going to get that next time. Overall, the service was great and they were able to split our checks.

Large rare steak pho with extra vegetables shown. It was delicious and had some for leftovers that I'm looking forward to. Husband got the green curry and it was great and spicy. The hot ginger tea was yummy. I prefer the spring rolls over the egg rolls and won't get the egg rolls again.

Basil Leaf is always a great choice! The food is consistently good and the service is super quick. The wait is never long as well, even though it does get busy I’ve always been seated fast. I recommend the pineapple and shrimp fried rice, as well as the mango sticky rice!

If I could give this place 10 stars I would!! Food is excellent and fresh and always quick for take out orders. This is my go to for lunch almost daily. The down side is they get a much deserved and needed day off, Tuesday's ;) keep it up !!!

Absolutely one of the best Vietnamese places I've tried in the states. Their pho with lemongrass broth is very unique and tastes super tasty! All other foods I tried were also very great.

We came on a Thursday afternoon and the place was packed full but we were able to get a table right away. We ordered a couple of appetizers (spring roll and egg roll). The egg rolls were definitely the star of the two even for being smaller than other restaurants. We also ordered jasmine tea and for the entree we got the vermicelli noodles with pork and egg roll. The bowl of food was much bigger compared to other places and the meat and veggies tasted fresh and was very satisfying. The service was great as there was always someone and asking if we needed anything. The bathroom was very clean and it was easy to check out. Will return again and again as it has been a Vietnamese highlight in Albuquerque.

Delicious Vietnamese food with a Thai twist. Friendly service and a great atmosphere.
