This is Chinese cuisine at its absolute best!!! I have been enjoying their delicious food for some 30 years now and it's as good as it has always been. My last visit was mid-afternoon, so the place was quiet. I requested that they make General Tso's Shrimp (instead of chicken). They happily obliged. I ordered a few other things and wow, what a wonderful meal we had! There were even leftovers for lunch the next day. The price was quite reasonable and the service was quick, even on a special order. Their egg rolls are good, I think they may make their own. Fried rice was excellent and shrimp toast was very tasty. Oh, and no MSG.Believe me, I am picky when it comes to food. I grew up in northern NJ, so I know what is good. This is so good that I have taken to go orders on a plane back to Florida. I can't say that about too many places. Go have a meal at Lotus and thank me later.

I have been a regular customer for over 23 years..but sadly the food was downright awful today (chicken and broccoli and spare ribs) I am very saddened by the sudden decline in quality. Never going back.!

We have eaten here a number of times, and it’s usually very good. The other day we went and left exceedingly disappointed. We ordered a half Peking duck, which we have had before. This was the stingiest and sloppiest Peking duck we’ve ever had, especially for $29.95. The pancakes were huge and there was the tiniest portion of duck we’ve ever seen anywhere. The duck wasn’t even neatly sliced, but still all connected together and really just enough for two pancakes. Although the duck itself was good, there was almost nothing there. When I mentioned it to the front desk person, she said that’s how they’ve been sending it, which was totally oblivious and disinterested. Downright rude, and not how we recall things were. Also, the tea had no flavor and the roast pork with fried rice, although nice and moist, had 4-5 tiny pieces of pork. Are there new owners?

Waiter was very rude. I finished my food and was going to order more, i slightly raised my hand as if I was in a class to get the waiters attention and from across the room (in a nasty tone) he responded with “what”. Did he want me to place my order shouting across the room while other guests are eating? Then he accused me of calling him over with my finger (which I did not do). Very rude and honestly a big turn off.
The place is excellent.The waiter was funny.On point.The ribs were the best I ever had.Top 5 fried dumpling.Just a great meal.My new go to place.

Ordered the Singapore mei fun and boneless ribs and salt and pepper calamari (not pictured) . You get a lot of food from this one dish. The boneless ribs were okay at best and the calamari was good, but definitely small in portions for the price paid.

Very nice Asian Chinese restaurant. The food is excellent. Prices are reasonable and the staff is nice. Very large menu with authentic dishes for the adventurous. Still have the standard items for everyone else. The chocolate fortune cookies are delicious. Could eat a box of those. Easy close parking.
