LOVE this place! It’s all vegan (besides like two dishes and they say it on the menu). I would suggest getting the sesame “chicken” and the lo mein with “chicken”. Also their dishes are reasonably priced! $12.50 for an entree (pictured)

Fast prep, good food. Would order there again. The drumsticks are a nice texture, the oyster mushrooms were nice and crispy.

I loveeeee their food!!!! It's always fresh and tasty. So delicious and full of healthy options.

This place is a gem. We order from here every week. The chicken nuggets are addicting, and the general tso is soo good. We also love the bbq ribs and the lo mein!

I was here with my wife and we both enjoyed it a lot. Tried General Tso’s chicken, boneless ribs, and a dumpling soup. The food was really good, the place feels cozy, and the hostess was super kind and welcoming.

If you’re looking for fresh, flavorful food and a welcoming atmosphere, Lotus Restaurant is a must-visit. Every dish I’ve tried here speaks to the care and quality that goes into their ingredients, nothing ever tastes pre-made or bland. My personal favorites? The veggie rolls and the seitan teriyaki chicken. The veggie rolls are crisp, light, and packed with perfectly fresh vegetables and the seitan teriyaki chicken is flavorful and tender. Just absolutely delicious! Plus, the staff is always friendly and attentive, and the overall vibe of the restaurant is relaxed but refined. Give Lotus a try. You won’t be disappointed!

Highly recommend this gem ! Food is delicious , portion sizes and prices great. It's my go to spot for vegetarian Chinese food. The owner is very friendly , welcoming and helpful

Quaint, clean environment. Friendly and professional staff. I had the "Chicken Nuggets," "Fried Chicken," and Thai Ice Tea (all orders of Thai Ice Tea are made with Almond Milk). I really enjoyed everything, including the fries and tater tots. I highly recommend this establishment, although take out might be ideal because there is no air conditioning. The portions are large, so be prepared to share, like I did, and take home, which I also did l.

Would go again. I had the chicken teriyaki with white rice and spring rolls. I thought I would leave something for tomorrow’s lunch but ate it all because it was really good. I specifically loved the spring rolls because they were bigger than usual. It also came with a sauce that was sweet. Cool vegan/vegetarian spot in the area

Stopped here for dinner before attending a show and the food was delicious. Had the Mango Soy Protein and Tom Yum soup while my girlfriend had the chicken sandwich and roasted pumpkin. Portion sizes were big and food was fresh and flavorful. Great family owned restaurant. If you are in the mood for vegan food it's highly recommended.

Honestly this has to be the BEST vegan food I’ve ever had. Seriously, everything is perfectly seasoned, super fresh. My go to vegan spot without a doubt. I tried the chicken nuggets which are to die for, the chicken and beef yakisoba noodles and the soy protein. everything is delicious. 😊

I have been coming to Lotus ever since they opened. The food and service are consistently Excellent! Try the King Oyster Mushrooms, you won’t be disappointed. I’ve been eating vegan Chinese food for 30 years and this is some of the BEST in NYC! 👏🏽🙂

The owner has some of the best customer service in not just Brooklyn, but all of NYC. Great local vegan Chinese restaurant with legitimately phenomenal prices(the lunch special is old school pricing). I have a lot of allergies so I get things made to specification there, and she is always happy to do so, no worries.

Difficult review to write. - the vegetarian chicken was one of the best I've ever eaten. Amazing. - the scallion pancakes were twice the size and twice the thickness that they usually are and mostly tasted like dense dough. We couldn't eat them. - the mapu tofu... We gave up immediately. It mostly tastes just sour (the sauce), the tofu pieces have not retained any of the sauce so they are just bland, and there are some sorry looking peas and carrots (???) floating around. -Portiton sizes are very big, so the two of us shared that portion and threw away the rest :-( If we order from here again it will ONLY be the one of the chicken dishes...

The food arrived quickly but was terribly flavorless, especially the Mapo Tofu (worst I’ve ever had). It had peas, carrots, but no garlic, no Szechuan peppercorn, no green onion, no spice, no salt, no mushroom. Hot and Sour Soup was just okay. I feel bad because this is a small business but it was honestly just not good at all.

Be careful, they don't know for sure if their products are gluten free or not . I had to find out the hard way, had stomach cramps and excess allergic reaction after eating from there, despite letting them know I need strictly gluten free

I would never get from here again the food was very tasteless and dry and unbeatable. If you wanna be disappointed order the GENERAL T SO taste like fried paper literally no sauce no veggies really bad and the lo mein OMGGG I can’t mad watery!! The best vegan place is zen vegetarian large portions and tasty. Here they have half size plastic containers so you’re getting half the amount by default because of the bowl used lol crazy I’m good on that!! How I add a picture it’s not showing the option smh I want yall to see what I ordered for $50
