Lotus Bar & Eatery

Lotus was quite the surprise. I met my girlfriends there and the drinks were amazing and this place has something for everyone. I had the ribeye and cooked to perfection. We also shared the potstickers. My friends had the salmon and the flatbread pizza. All were excellent. I plan to go back and have my Christmas party there.

My favorite (and closest) neighborhood restaurant.
Everything is delicious. My favorite is probably the sushi. Super fresh, and Mr Lee always prepares it with love.
Steaks are a very good cut. My wife favorite is probably the creole shrimp and grits. Excellent choice.

Dillion and the food was AMAZING!!! His service, recommendations and conversation was great. He was very attentive, warm and welcoming. I definitely recommend 10/10.

I gave this place 4 stars, the atmosphere is real mellow. I had the Ashley chicken. It came with fluffy and lovey mash potatoes & gravy. Alana was our waitress, she had a heart warming smile and OUTSTANDING personality the entire time since we were seated. I'll be back soon

My husband and I are celebrating our 14th anniversary today and he is working in Gastonia so I drove to celebrate with him. We found Lotus Bar & eatery and we were not disappointed. From the host to our server the experience was wonderful. The food was very well seasoned and prepared. Our server Kit was pleasant, helpful and seemed to care that we were having a special night. Big thank you to the staff of Lotus Bar & Eatery.

Somer was our waitress and she was very attentive to our needs with great service. I had seared snapper and it was amazing over jasmine rice. I would order this again and again as it was prepared perfectly. Wedge salad was good but the blue cheese dressing was a little thin so some room for improvement on the salad . Atmosphere was good and the host visited our table. Everyone was very pleasant but I will definitely head back if snapper is o. The menu!!!

My husband, son, and I came in for my birthday and absolutely loved the dinner special which was a 40oz tomahawk steak. It was cooked perfectly to medium rare and plated beautifully. Our server, Mina, was highly attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. Our drinks were mixed to perfection and the atmosphere was lively yet intimate at the same time. 10/10.

I can't say enough about this place! From the moment you walk in, until you walk out, is such an experience. Our bison was cooked to perfection, truly I've never had better. Kit was our server and she really made the visit that much better. She's definitely someone you want in your establishment!! We will be back soon. Thank you to the owners who know how to please your guests!

Rebecca made our experience amazing. Such a friendly staff. Dillon was a great server very attentive. Awesome food and staff. Ps 1/2 price wine bottles on Tuesdays. Lobster Ravioli *****

Last minute wedding reception they did an amazing job accommodating us! Good food, good drinks and amazing service rounded out this pretty venue where little decorations were needed. We were very happy and recommend then for anyone looking to host a small to medium event.

We had a 40th birthday party here on Jan 6th. The food and staff were fantastic. The upstairs area is definitely a great spot for a large party, up to 100ish. Kaitlyn, Mini, and Dillon easily handled the crowd the entire night. Thanks again ladies and Dillon for great service!!

My wife and have been eating sushi from Lotus for over 15 years. After all these years, Mr. Lee has not lost a step. He’s an absolute legend. True craftsmanship! Thank you sir for all the memories and fantastic sushi! We wish you many blessings!

The food and service here is phenomenal! Pat and everyone else are super friendly and attentive!
Best shrimp and grits I've had.

Bartender was great!

Great atmosphere!

I had the bison steak. It was delicious cooked perfectly. 😋 The service was great, nice, quiet Valentines dinner with my wife.

Last night (Tuesday, Oct 17th) we hosted a special celebration event in the upstairs Balcony and Bar area of Lotus. The evening couldn't have been any better! From our initial planning meeting with Pat Huffstetler, General Manager to the set up of the event space to the absolutely scrumptious food (an assortment of flatbread pizzas, salt & pepper shrimp, edamame, potstickers and pimento cheese fritters) to the fabulous service by Fernando at the bar to working the floor by Mina and Kit - everything was FABULOUS! Lotus never disappoints and was definitely the perfect place to hold our special event!

DELICIOUS food. Staff is great. Server was knowledgeable and offered great suggestions on food and drinks. Favorite place to eat in the area, we come here every chance we get. Try the weekly specials or the sushi rolls. Can't go wrong.

*Update*
Surf and turf is excellent. Giant shrimp, great cut of steak. House special sushi roll and heba de mango are also excellent. The beer list is extensive. A lot of hard to find and local beers.

The food and service was excellent as always!!!

The food was so good. Had so many appetizers and group of us loved everything!@@

Although the shushi was great it wasnt my favorite..I tried it fried..7/10 just my personal preference to have 100% raw

We have had dinner here several times & decided it was perfect to host our wedding dinner. Pat was very, very helpful! She accommodated us in every aspect! We had an appetizer table and decided to give our guests three options ribeye, salmon and stuffed chicken. Everything was yummy! We we’re complimented on the food and service! The private rooms upstairs are perfect for events. We had an open bar and everyone enjoyed their drinks. I highly recommend hosting your next event or just coming for dinner! You will not be disappointed!!!
