Recent Reviews
I hadn't been to Lotus since they closed during Covid. A newly remodeled dinning room and the familiar Sushi bar was a treat. The freshness of the seafood was right on. Some new dishes were wonderful and the attention shown by the staff was the best. Betty is the chef/owner and is very proud to offer suggestions and tips of how the recipes are made. Try the Fireman Mike roll and the Sushi pizza but don't skip the Sushi and Sashimi. Gouza soup was extremely good

My wife and I had a fantastic experience here, we sat outside and started with a couple of their wonderful cocktails. I had the Socialite, with gin, elderflower, and cucumber, perfect for a summer evening. My wife had the FOMO, it has pineapple, turmeric, vodka and it was delicious, earthy and refreshing as described. The sushi was fantastic also and our waitress was funny, fun and she made some good recommendations also. We'll be back for sure.

Hands down the absolute BEST SUSHI I’ve ever eaten anywhere on earth and I’ve travelled the world. Everything we’ve ever ordered has been delicious, seriously, but some of our go-to’s include, but are in no way limited to: Tomoe Gozen Roll (soy paper), Masako Katsura Roll (Eat Fit Certified!), Chef’s Special Roll (mix of deliciousness), Stuffed Jalapeños for an app and Tempura Cheesecake for dessert (perfect combo of sweet/salt + crunch/cream + warm/cold of all time)....
