Lotus Restaurant

We had a late lunch at Lotus recently. It was well worth the five-minute wait. My husband ordered spring rolls and mango bubble tea to share and garlic sauce with tofu and relished that. The spring rolls were crunchy fresh and delicious with the peanut sauce. The mango tea was interesting with black bubbles. I ate half of my large order of savory beef fried rice and took the other half to the hotel to refrigerate. A table of grad students were traveling and so left half their orders, a crime.

The food was great. I’ve never had Pad Thai like what they served. Also the oyster wings were really good. Everything came at a reasonable time. I do have to be honest about the parking though: not the best. I couldn’t leave right away because someone had to park behind me, so I ended up stuck in the parking lot. Thankfully it was way to find the person so they could move for. The restaurant Diane have a lot of space so it’s understandable, but still not the best. Overall experience was good though, and I would recommend to try it out.

Really great service. Servers were very friendly and attentive. I had the pad thai with chicken and it was really delicious! Also very reasonably priced.

Hangover food approved! If you want a lot of pho then get the large. One of the larger bowls of pho I've found throughout Minneapolis and it's only 11 dollars. Good tasting broth, not overly fatty with cut chives and cilantro. I couldn't taste the cilantro which can be over powering. Their egg rolls are crispy and average in size. Wantons are the same but sweet, I believe they sprinkle a little sugar on them. Spring rolls are also pretty typical to what I've seen from other restaurants. Service was good. Only real complaint is their parking situation.
