Lotus Restaurant

Great food, lots of delicious options, knowledgeable staff, and cozy atmosphere. Price was very reasonable and there was a lot of it. The staff were friendly and helpful and I’m excited to go back and try other options. Good tofu for vegetarians.

Lotus is a true gem! I can’t believe I hadn’t heard of it before today. My partner and I ordered takeout, because we were too tired to cook. Thai sounded good to both of us, so we decided to try Lotus. We were not disappointed.

We ordered mock duck spring rolls, tofu pad Thai, tofu chow fun, and mango bubble tea. The stand-outs were the friend tofu and the mango bubble tea. The tofu was crispy and chewy and fried to perfection. The mango bubble tea tasted so fresh and appeared to be made with fresh mango juice. The boba were so soft and melted in your mouth.

Everything was so tasty! I can’t wait to go back!

Visiting from out of town, and this was our last stop. It felt so cozy in there, and our food was amazing! Good prices too! $11.99 for a lunch special which includes a little solo appetizer, an entree/soup, and a side of rice :)

Been there two or three times, the taste is great and the price is cheap. Pho is rich in materials and large in quantity. Spring rolls are delicious with sweet and spicy sauce. I was pleasantly surprised by the special fried chicken wings. I personally like to try a few different dishes, so I order more. Thai milk tea has a unique taste and is recommended to try.

Great service. Wonderful food close to our hotel. Always happy to support local businesses. We ordered a small chicken pho for $9 and a large house pho for $13 and spring rolls for $8. Money well spent.

One of my favorite places to eat in Maple Grove. BBH, lotus wings, pot stickers are just a few of my favorites. Service is always great. Friendly and welcoming.

Parking is horrible, but the food here is delicious. Everything is flavorful and fresh. The large bowl of pho is huge. I had the yellow curry lunch special which is a good deal. Their egg rolls are the best in all of Minnesota.

Really good service and great food. The spring rolls were served cold like a salad and not like I was expecting but super good. The Pad Thai was good but the garlic dish was amazing. Would visit again soon.

I have not eaten here as I do not live in Minneapolis, but if in town would definitely try based on their response to feeding homeless people. I sure hope this is the correct restaurant from what I viewed online. And to the Owner such a kind heart! All the best!

Amazing restaurant run by an amazing owner! Not only do they service delicious authentic food, but they go above and beyond to help others and serve their community! Thank you for all that you do! Highly recommend

Owners are awesome humble and generous! Will definitely check you guys out when I’m in town. Saw you guys featured on fb giving food to the homeless!

Great customer service. Food was really good and really fresh! The pho broth had a very fresh and clean taste prior to adding condiments. It wasn't diluted. It was a slow Sunday so food got pushed out quick, despite this being my first time here. I could see parking being a problem on busier days although it wasn't an issue with me. Bought quite a few other things besides the 3 dishes posted totaling up to $60. Tipped $20 on top of that for good service. Would highly recommend and will definitely be back.

This restaurant and the people who run it are the very best. The food is hand made from scratch with love and they care about their community. If you are looking for great food, and great service, and great ambiance please go and enjoy everything they have to offer, and know that your money is being spent in all the best ways.

Haven’t eaten here but if I’m ever near I will! I saw a video of them helping the homeless, gave a big discount, added rice, and made Josh part of the family letting him help and fed him too! Y’all are amazing!

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.

This was our first order from Lotus, but certainly will not be our last! We ordered a lot of food (for takeout) for a family celebration and the food was hot and ready to go right when they said it would be. We all had great food with standouts being the Lotus wings, spring rolls, Lotus Bahn Mi and my favorite, the Bun Bo Hue - it was SO delicious! A huge shout out to Yoom and the rest of the staff for their smiles, positivity and community spirit, and to Josh L. for partnering with Lotus to help provide food for hungry members of our community!

Pho was really good and order came out super fast!!!

I’m not going to lie I’ve never been here but I saw a social media video where the owner of the restaurant was helping the less fortunate and was giving food out and he was a very nice and thoughtful and great person 🙂

First time eating here and everything was delicious! We got an order of pork eggrolls and an order of veggie ones, Chicken Singapore Noodles, & Traditional BBQ Pork Bahn Mi. Would highly recommend all of those. Staff was very friendly and efficient and were taking cleaning/safety precautions seriously. Parking is limited so best to plan on parking on the nearby streets. Will def be back in the future!

I love the Kung Pao with mock duck. It was my first time trying mock duck and it was sooooooo good. It beats the heck out of tofu. Really nice staff, too. They don’t serve alcohol, but you can go to the package store next door and roll your own. I will definitely be back.
