Lotus Thai Cuisine

"Wow. This is great Thai food. I’ve lived in this area my whole life and I’m a little upset I haven’t eaten here sooner. The food is delicious and authentic. I tried the wonton soup, drunken noodles with fried duck, Pra Pram and the Tom Kha soup. Everything was so good. I especially liked the drunken noodles with fried duck , the duck was cooked so perfect and it was tender. All the food was spiced perfect. All the dishes you can choose different proteins whether you want chicken , shrimp , or even tofu , and plenty of vegetarian options too. I will for sure be back to try other things, I would like to eat in the restaurant next time to experience their food presentations."

"First time there. The Tom Yum was perfect, the right spice level and full of fresh veggies. The Wonton soup was just as good, the wonton were full of flavor. I had Red Curry with no extras another perfect. The Pan Wee was just as good."

"I really really wanted to like this place after a disappointing day at the MVC. But, I had to ask for napkins, even though I had specified in my online order in the comments to please include some. This isn't the reason for the 2 stars, but rather that the food simply did not live up to my expectations nor to the price. $36 after taxes for two entrees and a iced tea. For the Pra-In, I couldn't taste anything BUT orange. The orange sauce completely masked any other savory or even fried flavor. They included two egg rolls, which was nice, but I was really expecting more from the entrees. The Green Curry was pretty standard, but it was ruined halfway through the meal by discovering a hair in it. It was literally baked into the coating of the carrot (see picture). I couldn't have planted it even if I wanted to. Needless to say, it was tough to finish the meal and in the end, we couldn't. Again, really wanted to like this place but I just can't after this experience. Edit: I wrote this review the day of, but seemed like it didn't get posted due to cellular connectivity. Reposted today."

"A decent Thai place. Ambience is good, service should have been better. Few of the dishes are really good, we ordered shrimp and was not cooked at all. However, other dishes are good."

"The Fried Calamari was delicious, crispy outside and tender inside. Pad Gra Pow (Basil Sauce) with beef was very tasty. The beef was thick cut but very tender. The vegetables were just perfect. The basil sauce was thick but not enough to cover the rice. Pad Thai with chicken could be better. The rice noodle was just right. The chicken did not have consistent tenderness. It was a bit too salty, especially toward the bottom. Duck Curry was a disappointment. When it was served, it looks like a vegetable dish. The duck was hidden underneath. It was cut as thick chunks with skin. It was tender but did not taste like a duck or any taste at all. Good thing was that there were only a few pieces. The potato was a bit undercooked. The curry was good, but not enough portion for a curry dish. The food came out pretty fast. We usually had to wait a lot longer at other Thai restaurants. The staff was nice to talk with, but should not clean the table top glass with a standard glass cleaner. Its smell was not pleasant while eating. I felt a bit rushed when she asked to pack my food while I was still eating. There were only 3 or 4 other tables with customers. The restaurant was clean with dimmed lighting and basic deco. Parking should be easy."
