Stopped in here after finding Seattle's Best Fish & Chips unexpectedly closed due to famiy emergency. Saw the Lotus sign across the street and decided to try it.
Nice decor, LOTS of TVs, big place, eclectic music, not too many patrons. We tried Happy Hour (1/2 off appetizers and $1 off draft beers). They have a nice list of draft beers including Kirin (of course). Sampled coconut shrimp, chicken satay, tempura shrimp (we like shrimp and were sniffling about Seattle's Best being closed), crab rangoon and egg rolls. Everything was really good and nicely presented. I even ate the cucumber carrot garnish! Only clinker was the egg rolls but they aren't a favorite for me anyway.
An error in the bill meant we didn't get HH pricing - had to point that out to our waitress and she gladly adjusted. Think she missed the beer discount, oh well.
Nice change from the beer, burgers & wings at the typical sports bar. I think they are really trying and the food quality alone warrants a visit. Come on all you local foodies - stop in and support a local independent. They need your business and you need to know I'm right about this food.
