Lotus Thai Restaurant - St. Thomas

We first sampled the fresh summer rolls from Lotus at the Strathroy Farmer's market. So we tried dinner, and weren't disappointed. Each of us had one of the Daily Specials--Pad Thai, and Red Curry. The spring rolls were fresh and crisp, nice veggies and shrimp in the curry with a spicy sauce. Friendly service. We'll go back.

It's a cute little place. One waitress who gets the job done. The food was very good. As someone mentioned earlier , some of the food looked burnt but it wasn't. Tasted fantastic. I do feel it's a little overpriced for a plate of noodles. Not outrageous price just a little high. Food is all freshly made when ordered. We will recommend and go back.

The All-day special is our go-to meal. 3 crispy won tons, 2 crispy spring rolls and choice of main. I usually get the beef Pad Thai. Portions are generous. Others have commented about the service...we enjoy Cindy's gruff exterior and banter. She's got an edge to her, but not everyone is sunshine and roses all the time. She's genuine and honest! Get over it, and enjoy the food.

I entered the restaurant and went up to the counter. The woman working was on her cell, no greeting or acknowledgement of me so I asked if they do takeout. Still without speaking she put a menu down in front of me. Eventually she put her phone down and took my order. For $13.95 plus tax I got the daily special: pad thai 3 wontons and 2 spring rolls. When I opened the container everything looked burnt, very unappealing looking. Luckily it didn't taste burnt. The wontons tasted good but I bit into bone in one. The pad thai I did not like at all but my husband liked it. I will not return.

Took the family for hot soup on a cold miserable day. This was our second time here. Food was great and so was the service. Space is limited so reservations are recommended for more than 4 people
