Busaba Thai | Boulder

"I first reviewed this place about three years ago and it was quite negative. This time I am giving five stars for the food. The green curry with chicken was stunning - heavy on the galangal, not too much curry paste - delicious! The pad see ewe was also very nice, good texture of the noodles and fine balance of flavors. Food was ready for pickup in like 15 minutes. Portions were pretty large - this $15 green curry will feed 4-5 people as one of a few shared dishes (though you will need to order more rice to make it go that far). Well done Busaba Thai!"

"I read the reviews and decided on the curry, amazing!!! I got there about 45 minutes before closing and did not feel rushed. Very vice people, I had a younger server who was just a sweet college age kid. I would definitely eat here again! Price was reasonable too, for Boulder!"

"I was a regular here but I won't return here. This is the first time I ate here during peak hours. I ordered pork drunken noodles, along with everyone else in the group. As usual nothing else was said and we received our food. While eating I started to feel sick, which was weird, then I realized that the food tasted mildly of shrimp. As a person who is allergic to shrimp, this was very upsetting. If they are sharing cooking equipment with shrimp, they should at least mention it or ask about possible allergies. I talked to the front desk, and he was saying if you wanted shrimp, you need to order it. And multiple times I told him that is not it. If I did not order shrimp I would expect it not to be there due to my food allergies. Sharing cooking equipment during peak hours, I understand. But not mentioning it, and refusing to acknowledge it, I am terribly disappointed. Will not recommend for health reasons."

"A good buddy of mine claimed that Busaba Thai was the best in the City. I ordered the crab Rangoons and the Bankok Street Rice with chicken and pork, 'cuz Im a little moo moo. I had a draft Singha while I waited...(I like beer) Staff was super friendly and helpful. Wait was about 15 minutes, but then they had only been open for about an hour. Rangoons are home made and delicious. No lie. I couldn't eaten a dozen. Street rice was decent. Hot af. Good portion size for the price.. I'll be back."

"Pretty quick service for a group of 14. Basil fried rice and hooky noodles are the best. For spice level, hot was definitely hot for us. Unless you prefer extremely spicy food, you should not go higher than hot Vegetable potsticker is the only appetiser I wouldn’t recommend. Everything else is good. I would love to visit again!"
