Reviews For Lotus Seafood

It was delicious!! Our cashier was very helpful giving us ideas of what to eat! We got the crab legs and shrimp. It was very good! We even happen to show up during happy hour and they had 2.00 lemon drops! I expected it to be greeted by a hostess and a waiter but that’s not the type of restaurant it is. Pretty laid back! I liked it! The fried green tomatoes were delicious, too!

Lotus Seafood is absolutely on point! It wasn’t packed but still had a steady flow of people, and you could just feel the good vibes everyone around us was clearly enjoying some amazing food. I have to give a shoutout to their crack sauce it’s now packaged properly so no more spills (thank you for that!). The crawfish were big, juicy, and seasoned to perfection. What really stood out was how organized everything was. No crowds of people just standing around waiting on food. They’ve got a digital board showing when your order is being prepared and when it’s ready, plus a texting system that tells you exactly when to head up to the pickup counter. Super efficient and stress-free. The only tricky part is parking this is a busy shopping center, so it can be a little chaotic. And if you’re not from the southwest, this area might be a bit of an adjustment. But once you taste the food and experience the smooth service, it’s all worth it. Highly recommend!

Lotus is so delicious . I had the pleasure of visiting lotus and the environment was nice ,not pack and kind of a vibe because of the art on the wall . I didn't dine in ,I order my food to go . The to go process was easy as they have plenty of menus around . I ordered a kids fish meal, crawfish, combination lo mein ( chicken and shrimp) and fried green tomatoes topped with sauteed crawfish. I love the kids meal,.it was just enough for my son. This meal did include fries but no drink. The fish tasted well season and so are the fries. The crawfish was cool ,it's not pack with the dripping crawfish sauces as most restaurant, and the daiquiri had a nice kick to it . I did get a little tipsy lol. The lo mein was okay, I had better other places. My best tasty dish from here would be the fried green tomatoes. Baby these tomatoes was sooo good that they should be ashamed of making something this good. Definitely recommend

If you’re a fan of Southern seafood with bold flavor and generous portions, this place is a must-try. The dining room was very spacious and clean. The service was friendly as well. The catfish filets were crispy on the outside, flaky and tender inside and seasoned just right. The fried shrimp were huge, juicy, and packed with flavor. They didn’t skimp on size or taste! The gumbo was rich and savory. The corn on the cob was spicy, buttery, and bursting with flavor. The chicken wings had a crispy skin, juicy meat, and bold seasoning The hushpuppies were crispy on the outside, soft and flavorful inside, with a hint of sweetness that balances all the savory. While the fried okra was a little soggy for my taste, the crack ranch that it comes with was literally crack. The oysters had a bit too much batter but were decent. All in all, Lotus Seafood delivers big on flavor, portions, and Southern comfort. I can’t wait to go back!
