Never been down to this "Chinatown" plaza, except for the ever-changing restaurant/club that faces J Street ("Pier 50 Sushi" atm). If you take the stairs down, Lotus Thai is smack in the middle. Very unassuming, small, and quiet building. The place is clean, feels cozy, decorated with Thai accents. Restrooms are clean but have a sewer odor. I hope they have a lot of business during lunch. We were the only customers there at the time, except for 1 other party that dined in and 1 takeout order. I tried the green Thai iced tea, which tasted lighter than a traditional Thai tea, and had a heavy floral flavor. Although I liked it, I still prefer the original Thai tea. I got the chicken drunken noodles and my husband got the chicken pineapple fried rice. We loved our food. Portions are generous, obviously shareable if you're doing family style, or another meal for leftovers. Food was served nice and hot within minutes after we ordered. Every bite was so satisfying and had so much flavor. Would definitely come again if we are at DOCO for an event. Hidden gem for sure!

After years of working downtown and passing by this courtyard, this was our 1st time here and we…read moreagreed we want to return! It's a cool location in a hidden courtyard on 4th and J St. (They have a sign out near the street so it'll be easy to pinpoint it!) My basil fried rice was yummy and I got it with tofu as my protein. Portion sizes are good; I had enough for leftovers the next day. I liked the Thai iced tea too, the only thing I'd say is maybe it was a little on the sweet side so I'd suggest asking to lower the sugar if you're not a big fan of sweet. That being said, I typically order my drinks at boba shops at 25% for a look into my sweet preference. The service was great; our server brought us everything we'd need, including bags for our leftovers. The have bottled beer in addition to their handmade drinks and they have a large dining area. Thanks!

The mango sticky rice was delicious, I'll be ordering that and the Cha Thai Yen (Thai iced tea) again at my next visit! The only negative are the seats. My friends had been there before and packed padded seats for us so that we could enjoy our meal and catch up without getting sore bottoms.

I ordered the pad see ew on DoorDash and selected the lowest possible spice level (level 1 out of…read more5) and my food is way too spicy to handle. There were so many Thai chilis added that almost every piece of chicken, noodle, and vegetable was covered in the red chili skin and seeds. Even after spending almost an hour trying to pick out the seeds and chilis, it's still insanely spicy. I usually order medium spice, so I certainly don't mind heat, but when I order the lowest level, I'm not expecting my mouth to be on fire after every bite. Delicious food, but please pay attention to the spice level that customers select, because my dish was easily a level 4 or 5 spiciness.

I usually stick with my go to order: a Thai Tea and the Pineapple Fried Rice. The Thai Tea always hits. The Pineapple Fried Rice is customizable in spice level, but I usually go with a medium / Level 3 for the perfect balance of heat and flavor. It's become my regular spot whenever I'm at work, and one of the things I love most is how the staff immediately recognize me and already know what I'm going to order. Great food, great people, and always a great experience.

Based on the experience we had, can't complain. They aren't the biggest, in terms of retail space,…read moreso seating may be limited in times that are really busy. They had a number of options that were appealing, and we had to take some time to try narrow down what we wanted to try this time. After making our choices, we were happy with what we got. We would go again. For instance, there are places in the general Sacramento area that are widely known for their dumplings, but I thought they were inferior compared to Lin Dumpling. I'd genuinely have the ones here over the bigger names. The XLB were good, as were the Shengjian bao. I've had worse for both. The Shengjian bao in particular were a good surprise. I've had experiences where they're too burnt or not enough filling, but these ones here were great. The XLB were good, with dough thickness. They didn't rip too easily, but weren't overwhelmingly thick either. The filling was good and balanced, more than other places in the area. We also had the Shanghai style shu mai, and they were good. They were a pleasant change of pace from the typical HK style you typically get around the area. The pork and chive dumplings were good; the dough wasn't too thick, and they were filled well. They are a small joint, so keep expectations aligned with that. They were all super nice to us.

The interior was nice and featured a cute Studio Ghibli theme. Stopped by for the first time and tried the umami udon and a BYOB with bacon spam fried rice. Can you tell that I like katsu chicken? The katsu chicken along with the bacon spam fried rice is what you'd expect, It was delicious. The umami udon was also good, but it did get a bit heavy the more I ate. Overall I think it's a good affordable spot. I may be generous giving this place a 5/5, but I can definitely see myself coming back for some more katsu if i'm in the area. The food isn't like mind blowing, but definitely a great choice if you want something kinda quick, good, and affordable.

My husband had driven by Kado Asian Fusion a few times since it's close to his work so we decided…read moreto check it out for dinner last week. Kado Asian Fusion is located on Broadway and cater to the lunch/dinner crowds. They are open from 12-8pm every day except Sundays. The inside was clean and had a decent amount of tables. We ordered at the counter and then sat at a table while we waited for our food to go. They offer bowls, tacos, nachos, rolls and sandwiches! I don't always know what to order at new places - so I liked that they had signs for specials as well as "favorites." We ordered the Rice with Teriyaki Chicken, Oliver's Favorite which was Spam Musubi and Spam and Bacon Fried Rice and Mom and Dad's Forbidden Feast. Everything looked and tasted really good! Obviously, it would have been much better had we actually eaten in the restaurant, but still no complaints once we got it home. Spam Musubi is one of my favorite things to eat so I could have downed like 5 of them! Portions were huge too - they even have a 100 year old teriyaki recipe! Overall, I would definitely come back and try other items! Staff were also very friendly, personable and gave great recommendations! Check them out!

This place is inside a state building or a working building, so I did question the GPS a little bit until I found it, though the workers in the front seem used to people coming and were very nice to direct us to where the restaurant is.

I was craving Thai food and wanted to check out a different place and the first Thai restaurant show up on the app was this location so I decided to go ahead and check them out. I arrive and it was one waitress and the place was busy which is a good sign. I waiting less than to minutes to be both greeted and seated. I figured it would be longer considering the situation. There is plenty of seating for diners which is a huge plus if you have a group. I was brought water and a menu. I ended up ordering the Tom Kha with seafood add $6 with a side order of sticky rice. I ordered a glass of Pinot Noir and for dessert sticky rice with mango and coconut ice cream. The portions are very generous too! My service was great and the waitress was very attentive considering how busy it was. My food was amazing. I left full and content. I will for sure say, I will be patronizing the Fulton location more frequently. If you haven't checked out The Coconut Fulton you a missing out on some snacking Thai cuisine.

I have passed The Coconut Fulton dozens of times and have had a craving for some good Thai food... this seemed to be the place to try.. ya never know!! I pulled into an empty parking lot and walked in. The interior was beautiful. The seats of the booths were a beautiful blue color with wooden floors and tables with a nice finish. I was told to pick any table and I was handed a menu of one page. Appetizers, soups, salad sides, entrées, and desserts. Drinks, too, but I stuck with ice water. My favorite! I decided to order the Praram Chicken... grilled chicken marinated in Thai herb with steam vegetables, topped with peanut sauce. It arrived shortly after ordering and.. it was very vibrant. Colorful. Very well plated and stunning. I could already tell I was not going to finish it, there was so much food. I received a sauce caddie with chili oil and soy sauce as requested. I tried the chicken by itself. It was on the drier side and I couldn't taste any Thai herb seasoning. I dipped into the peanut sauce and too much was overwhelming. The rice was good and the vegetables were on the harder side of steamed. There were so many, my jaw got tired of chomping. If I'm being honest, I thought the chicken was bland, the steamed veggies were barely steamed, and I wish that I had just left. I drizzled chili oil and soy sauce on the chicken to give it more flavor. I tried to finish most of it just for the purpose of getting some protein. I occasionally dipped in the peanut sauce... the only thing I finished was the rice. Service was great, but I was disappointed in the chicken and "steamed" vegetables.
