Lotus Pier Cafe

"Placed a phone order, first time trying this place! The girl on the phone was nice. I sent my son in to grab the food and he ordered a boba and said the employees were very nice as well. Food was wonderful. We had beef pho, crying tiger, jerky and a Bahn Mi. Flavor was good & portion sizes too!"

"This was my first time here with my coworkers who tried this place for the first time last week and they raved about it. I verified the hype and absolutely loved our food! And the atmosphere is so cute. Not many tables, but it wasn't very busy when we got there for lunch. I ordered the Kua Mee Kai, a Lao-style stir fry noodle dish with chicken and eggs. It was delicious and flavorful. They also gave me some additional spicy paste stuff that helped kick it up. The chicken and fried eggs were so tender and delicious (and can often be overcooked in dishes like this). The egg rolls were delicious too! I can't wait to come back and work my way through the menu. :)"

"The storefront is pretty basic, but it’s modern-looking and clean. The staff was friendly, and the food arrived quickly and fresh. I tried their fresh spring rolls, made with shrimp as the protein, and their original banh mi sandwich. Both were great, but the banh mi was especially nice. The roll was wonderfully crunchy on the outside with a springy texture, and the fillings were delicious. I’ll definitely have to give their Laotian sausage a try next time."

"After reading the reviews, we were really excited to check this place out. We ordered everything to go. Ambience: This is a small get-your-food-and-go type of place. I wouldn’t bring a large family for sit-in dining as it is not a family-style type of restaurant. But perfect if you are getting a bunch stuff to go. Service: They are so nice and friendly. We felt welcomed right upon walk-in and it’s all good vibes here. Food & Drinks: We got some boba and it was fantastic! The tapioca balls were super good too (not rubbery or overly-chewy like at some places that I’ve tried), like some of the best boba I’ve had! And the cups with the cute little faces?! Just loved that! The food is unique and delicious. We really enjoyed everything that we got but I have to give special mention to that Pho with that amazing broth as it was crazy delicious! We will definitely be coming back for more!"

"Ordered a bunch of stuff to try out. Pork egg rolls were amazing. Texture and flavor was nice. Beef/meatball pho. It was good to me, nice flavor and good amount of meat. BBQ Pork Lotus leaf bun. Have only had lotus leaf once before so cannot compare to much, but meat was thick and had a nice sweet and spicy flavor. Beef bulgogi banh mi was probably my favorite out of everything. Loved the soft bread, and delicious beef. That was def kid approved! Lastly we had beef basil fried rice. Too spicy for my kids, (who actually like a bit of spice). But to me was very flavorful. Lots of veggies and cooked well. Overall I would recommend trying this spot. The food has an authentic, home-cooked feel that you can't find just anywhere. And my kids found dishes they liked also. Their favorites were beef pho and bulgogi banh mi."
