Boulder Fresh Garden Thai Cuisine — Restaurant in Boulder

Look out other Thai restaurants in Boulder, Boulder Fresh Garden is coming in hot and fast! I think the only problem these guys are having right now is that nobody knows about them, but of all the Thai I have had in town, Boulder Fresh Garden is blowing away the competition. I love how when you order you can actually choose your spicy level. I think what sets Boulder Fresh Garden apart from everyone else is just how fresh their food tastes. Most times when I eat Asian food, I don't feel great after, but I've had Boulder Fresh Garden maybe 10 times now, and every time I eat it I still feel really good afterwards, which leads me to believe that their food is sourced better than most. I definitely have not tried everything on the menu, as I do have my favorite go-tos, but if you are looking for some recommendations, you cannot go wrong with the Drunken Noodles or the Panang Curry. I can be very critical when it comes to food, and I never post bad reviews, but if I do post a review, it means that my heart has been won. Boulder Fresh Garden, you have won my heart! Put this restaurant in your rotation Boulder and you will know what I'm...

Folsom Thai was super busy and the parking lot was full, so I decided to try a Boulder Fresh Garden Thai yesterday. I ordered pad See ew, which is a common noodle dish with brown sauce that I typically get in Thailand. The dish was $17, which you can expect for US Thai food prices. Keep in mind, in Thailand, these beautiful dishes would cost about $1.50. The dish was decent, and I enjoyed the taste, although I found a bit bland. I also bought a hot chai for $6.00! I honestly found these prices to be a bit high, even for Boulder. The chai came from the syrup mix from the Sherpa chai bottle, and was just so so. ( I try a lot of chais from different countries.)

I ordered my food to go, and when I reached my destination, I open the package and found no fork, or other utensils, and no napkin! Come on! I even left a decent tip for takeout. I had to drive around to find a restaurant with a plastic fork so that I could...

For me, this spot stands out from the dozens of other "Thai" restaurants in the Boulder-Louisville-Westinster area. It's actually more pan-Asian (with several Vietnamese and Chinese dishes).

Exceptionally good fried spring rolls—vegetables inside are freshly chopped and sautéed and you can really taste the difference (my mom made these for us growing up, so this is my go-to "Asian restaurant test dish").

I've tried all the curries and the drunken noodles—all superb. Per the owner, all spices are hand ground and herbs are fresh. From the kitchen, you can hear the staff constantly chopping, so I suspect this is true. Note: their "medium" spice level is just a bit hotter than other Asian restaurants.

BTW, this is a good dine-in option if you're trying to avoid crowds: not much ambience, but a dining area and they do...
