| - If you liked Mekong River, you'll like Lotus Thai House. Same location, same atmosphere, and in my opinion the food has gotten better.
I decided to be a little adventurous and not order chicken satay and potstickers, which is what I almost always order for appetizers at a Thai restaurant. Instead, I started off with the stuffed boneless chicken wings. The mussels were big and came in a tasty lemongrass broth. The boneless chicken wings were small. Basically they are deboned chicken wings stuffed with ground chicken, vegetables, and spices. In one order, you get 2 wings that are each cut into thirds. I would have preferred more wings, but the presentation was good and what we got was delicious.
For the entree, I ordered the Salmon Paradise. Just like when this restaurant was Mekong River, you get a lot of food. The piece of fish was very large and was served with a lot of curry. There was a lot of flavor in the curry and the fish, which was advertised on the menu to be "steamed to perfection", did not disappoint.
My friends ordered the Pad Thai and the three way pork fried rice. I didn't try any, so I can't comment on how those dishes tasted. I did observe that their portions were also well sized.
