Bidrage med feedbackSmall restaurant with what I noticed, a lot of to-go orders. If you come with a group larger than 6, expect to be split up or get cozy with your group by squeezing in additional chairs. Service was ok, seems a little understaffed. I wouldn't say this is a warm and fuzzy place. Speaking of warm, inside is the opposite, a little chilly. Scan the QR code and place your order. You can order from each individual phone, but they will bring one total bill at the end of your meals, and only two card splits max. Noodle soups are served in bowls and everything else is in to-go trays. My friend asked for a bowl to toss her food together in and they brought a tiny bowl, lol! Ask for a larger one and they'll say they ran out, even if there's only about 15 people in the entire restaurant. Overall, the dining experience was a little awkward. I had the seafood laksa noodle soup and that's what made up for the service and the reason why I am giving this place 4 stars. Very creamy and delicious soup with plenty of fresh seafood. Also comes with a ramen egg with strong soy and umami flavor, which I appreciated very much. Large portion of food and very fulfilling. My milk tea lacked jasmine tea flavor and tasted mostly like milk. I ordered 50% sweet, but prob could have gone up to 75% or even 100%. Boba was sweet and chewy, pudding had good egg flavor but no texture. If I come back, it'll probably be laksa noodle soup to-go.
Amazing Basil has been my go to for take out pho since the pandemic started and is one of the better pho options out here in the Livermore/Pleasanton area. I find the broth more flavorful than its competitors and that is what makes a solid bowl of pho for me. Everything is packaged nicely for take out and there's a good bit of meat so it's not a bowl that is 90% noodles like I've had elsewhere. I normally stick to pho and a drink but this time I wanted to try something else from the menu so I ordered the salt and pepper tofu. It was ok, definitely better dipped in the provided sauce. I thought it would be crispy but it wasn't but perhaps it went soft after being packaged for delivery. I'll definitely keep coming back for more pho in the future though!
Interesting menu... fusion type but the presentation of the food is amazing! Just like those shown in pictures! Taste is so so and we find it pricey. Daughter tried the Boba tea and said it's good.
Really recommend to order fried trio (popcorn chicken, fried king squid and tofu), served with lemon sriracha mayo and sour sweet dipping.
Amazing Basil is located in the Fallon Gateway plaza. It has a big parking lot, but it gets busy here on weeknights and weekends. Not much service, you may order yourself with the self ordering through the QR code. My friends and I came here for lunch. My friends ordered vegetable noodle soup and a banh mi, while I ordered a banh mi and a sea salt cheese jasmine jade with boba, and we ordered an order of popcorn chicken to share as well. My friends thought their food was okay the pho was lacking in flavor, but the banh mi was okay. I thought my banh mi was decent, the bread could had been more soft/toasted. My boba drink was not that great, it tasted like a cup of condensed milk with cheese after I mixed it the tea taste was lacking, while the boba very soft and melty. We enjoyed the popcorn chicken the best out of everything.
