This is my third time with takeout here and I liked it but it could be amped up a bit. I think the chefs should take a trip to Mountain Thai in Broomfield to compare flavor profiles and maybe tweak their recipes a bit. Mountain Thai would be a 10/10 for me and this location, Baseline Busaba would be a 6/10. I liked the green curry and the beef Drunken Noodles and the noodles are bouncy and the meat is tender. I liked the ration of noodles to meat, as I love a generous amount of rice noodles in that dish. The green curry was tasty, didn't care for the peas and the chicken was fine. I asked for both dishes to be medium and that turned out to be my version of HOT. Next time I will ask for mild. I did tweak both at home with added fish sauce, a splash of vinegar and a little salt. Would get them again, but it still is a distant third from Mountain Thai for our family.

Pretty good. The Thai basil fried rice was a little greasy & I wish they would add a little more basil, but still good. The veggie pan fried dumplings were good but a bit of a small portion. They gave me a hot sauce but I wish they had some duck sauce or sweet and sour sauce . Their curries & pad see yew always good.

Busaba Thai food is my go to for take out Thai food. They have 2 places in Boulder but I prefer the one down south as I can always get in and out of there in 15 minutes. I have had many of their dishes but the drunken noodles are simply delicious. The food even when ordered mild has some kick so beware of the heat level when ordering but of course that is part of the Thai experience. Service is also very good here and they go the extra mile to ensure their customers good a great Thai food experience.

Best Thai food ever! I am originally from Seattle, where we have amazing Thai food. I have been unimpressed with every Thai restaurant in Colorado and then was recommended to try Busaba. I literally could eat here every day. It is amazing and I've loved everything I've tried. Sometimes the service has been hit or miss when I do dine in, but typically that's only when they've hired new college students and you can obviously tell they're training. Sam and DJ are our favorites and they go out of their way to make us feel at home there and provided for. When they first opened this location is was pretty rough, esthetically. They've done a lot to make it nicer inside and it's a cozy spot to have a meal with friends or family. We love it and it's my #1 recommendation to anyone looking for food in Boulder. My favorite dishes are drunken noodle with beef, chicken pad thai, basil fried rice with chicken, mussaman curry with chicken, garlic pepper beef, and the Thai iced tea.

Very good Thai food. My favorites choices are the fried rice with chicken, drunken noodles. They know how to cook them perfectly with the special seasoning with the right amount of saltiness and sweetness. Great service with helpful suggestions.

The seating area in Busaba is on the smaller side but nice but the food packs a big flavor. Service was speedy and we didn't have to wait long for our food to come out. I had the Pineapple Curry with Fried Tofu and mild plus was perfect on the spicy scale for me. I really enjoy Thai and Busaba was good. I would recommend if you're looking for a good Thai place in Boulder. Pro tip: The Tom Yum is top shelf
