We dine here weekly and the food is fantastic! Service is perfect and we have never been let down!!!
I order the Green Pepper Beef and ask for $4.00 more beef, not because it is a small portion but it leaves me enough for lunch the next day!
My Wife orders the Cashew Chicken and gets $4.00 extra Cashews.
Mom orders the Vegetable Chow Mein with extra been sprouts and Egg Roll appetizer.
THIS LOCATION IS IN MY TOP 5 ALL TIME CHINESE RESTAURANTS IN NORTH AMERICA!

Nope just nope!
Heard rumors for years that the quality fluctuates at this place but that the past 9-10 months the food has been great. Ok cool let's give them a try. Ordered delivery (cause football is on). The orange chicken sauce had this bitter burnt taste, so bad you couldn't hide it. The chow mein was a complete disappointment. With no description on the online menu one can only assume it would be the noodle dish traditionally found in most Chinese restaurants. Flavor was ok but we were in the mood for noodles. The hot and sour soup was ok. I've had worse and the "black pepper beef" tasted more like Mongolian beef but it wasn't horrible.
All in all, there's better out there and we will not be ordering from Lotus again. -

Red Lotus has great food we have taken it to go a couple of times. The food is very flavorful, fresh and well presented! Our last visit was a "to go" order, $42.00 worth. I was a little taken back when I asked for another bag of crispy noodles for our War Won ton soup (which was great by the way) He charge me $1.00 for an additional bag. He said if I was eating in the restaurant they do not charge for them because we would be paying a tip. What?? Am I missing something? I've never had the noodles rationed out at the other Chinese restaurants I frequent. Very good food though..

Just moved over here didn't want to cook came right here because it's a couple min from the house. Food was really good glad it's by the house didn't get anything crazy spicy because I had my daughter with me so we got the sizzling rice soup broth was really good. We had BBQ short ribs really good as well meat was tender came right off the bone. We also got sweet and sour chicken which was good breading was crispy veggies had a nice crunch still. Beef lo mein flavor was good. And we got the Hawaiian fried rice rice was good but my mistake was not asking what came in it me I love meat in my fried rice and it only had pineapples but it was still good next time I will just have them put meat in it. Service was pretty good and everything was good. I will be returning thank you.

One of the better chinese restaurant in town. I spent less then 10 bucks for huge portion of combination fried rice.
