We came here because one person in our group needed to be soy free. They said they could make many dishes soy free and they helped delect a good choice. The food was excellent. I had the Bulgogi Lotus tacos, which were delicious. Excellent food. Great personalized service. Made our day! read more

Food was OK. I did not care for the celery noodle soup. Very large portions, ok for price. Service was not great.

This was so good. I got the fried rice and it was massive. I could've eaten this forever lol. The inside was very nice too! read more

Lotus Asian Bistro - Tofu fried rice - Asian Fusion Near Me - Davenport, Iowa

Found this place by Google and it turned out to be delicious!!!! It's a hidden gem of authentic asian food (Korean, Thai, Chinese, etc)!! My husband ordered the Thai Basil Noodles and I ordered the Sesame Chicken Salad. Both were sooo good and great for our long drive. I highly recommend this place to everyone who stops through Iowa or who is passing by!! Service was good and inside had plenty of seats! Parking is plenty as well :0) read more

Great customer service. Food arrived hot and fast. Perfect for vegetarians and gluten free diners.

we tried when it was under the original owners. We used to great service until the very last time we did not. We thought with new ownership It would be better and it was actually worse! The restaurant was not busy . the hostess was super rude And our waitress came up to take our order and though she was friendly, she did not do a good job with service. She came and gave food and we never saw her again until we had to flag her down for our check and a box. I do not recommend this and they did not improve with new ownership. read more

This is my favorite place for Pumpkin Curry! Generous portions and great flavor you can have as spicy as you want. Lettuce wraps are tasty as well. The restaurant itself has always been clean and well decorated. Lunch specials are great as well. Includes soup and salad. They do not have the regular "Chinese Food' items but more curry, noodles, seafood and Thai read more

We got the pumpkin curry and general Taos chicken with a side of steamed broccoli and rice. Carlos did a great job. The portions were good size and leftovers for lunch tomorrow. read more

Food was horrible. I had a chicken mango dish and the dark meat chicken had the taste chicken gets just before it turns rotten. Half of it was cold and the other half hot, so obviously it was cooked in the microwave. A huge portion drowned in syrupy, lukewarm sauce with slimy chunks of pre-frozen mango (the chunks you make smoothies with), definitely not fresh. My wife had a fried rice dish and the rice was overcooked and pasty. She felt slightly ill from it the next day. Definitely not worth the price and I have had way better at random Chinese buffets. Very disappointed. read more

The food flavors were amazing! Lovely Asian decor, nicely lit and even had an indoor waterfall. Their menu and waiters were very attentive to special diets like vegetarian, vegan and gluten free. Highly recommended! You'll be impressed! read more

Great food. Cool atmosphere. Service was prompt and efficient. Price point was where it should be.. I ordered the Roti Canai.. a delicious yellow curry dish served with chicken, onions and naan.. really good. I was there on a business lunch, and my customers have been there many times. We went on their recommendation, and we were not disappointed. read more

First, the service was really poor. There were only five other occupied tables, but we waited for our order to be taken for 15 minutes. We sat needing refills for 15 minutes. We also waited forever for boxes and waited forever for check and waited forever to get the credit card back and sign. My husband had glass noodles with chicken and said his was mediocre and slightly bland, but wasn't terrible. I ordered Thai basil stir fry with beef. It was terrible. I'm not sure what kind of beef because it was something bizarre and had such an odd gummy texture. I tried to eat it a little, but just couldn't bring myself to eat more than a few bites. I've eaten this same dish many times before. It is usually bursting with basil and other flavor. The flavor itself was not horrible, but was very bland. Overall, I would not recommend at all. In fact, we will never go back due to the low quality of food and service. read more

The new owner is dropping the ball. First, they gave us a hard time about having my dog with us outside on the patio last month when it was previously never a problem. We were the only customers sitting outside so it was extra weird. The portions were also significantly smaller than before so that was second strike. Tonight, however, was redonculous. We called and ordered tom yum soup to pick up, specifically asking for a dinner size portion. They assured us that it would be a large dinner size. Just got it home and it's a small cup of soup and a couple shrimp. The white rice I ordered with it is crunchy and under cooked as well. Hopefully Exotic Thai will be open again soon cause this isn't cutting it. read more

Lotus Asian Bistro - One shrimp - Asian Fusion Near Me - Davenport, Iowa

Excellent food. I 've never been disappointed when dining here. Also great service. Personable and efficient servers.

Best Asian food in the Quad Cities! Super nice family owned, great service! This is not a fancy place, just clean with great food!

Great food and boba. Fast service and very polite. I order online and they have gotten rid of the online and hidden fees

First/timer. To go order - Spicy Basil Noodles w/beef. Great takeout container, quality and quantity well above average. The few employees I encountered were very polite. Nice ambiance inside. Seems like a strong dine in option. Would definitely recommend. read more

Fantastic Thai place. My favorite in the Quad cities. Love any of the stir fry options and the crying tiger beef (add broccoli) is delicious and healthy. Enjoy the amazing place! read more

My family and I stopped here on our way to see my grandma. We chose to sit on the patio because it was such a nice day out. To drink: I had the pear martini, which was perfect to have on this beautiful day. This martini is sweet (not overly sweet) with a piece of pear on top. This is their signature dish. For Appetizers: we ordered the dim sum and the tempura green beans. Both were so good! The dim sum were steamed and had shrimp. I wish they gave you more than four. The tempura green beans was a good portion and the sauce is amazing! For Entrée: I had a creamy curry dish that was really good and slightly spicy. There was curry and very thin noodles with cabbage on top. Overall, I really enjoyed eating here! I will have to come back the next time I am in town. read more

This is literally one of my favorite thai places in the qc, I always get the glass noodles it tastes good and has typically always tasted the same. (A good thing) This place is definitely a good dinner spot as it's pretty quiet and lowkey. read more

Great delicious food, plenty of food for the price, comfortable atmosphere & very friendly service. One of the best in QC. They also give back to the community with fundraiser & animal lovers. I'll be back! read more

Haven't actually been into the restaurant but have had their food at the farmers market and it is absolutely delicious

I haven't been to this restaurant in a few years, and it is beginning to show its age. The table was "sticky" and most likely needed a cleaning. There is a reasonably priced lunch special, and it comes with rice. The waiter asked me what kind of rice I wanted; but I never eat rice, so I just said "brown". He did not mention that the brown rice was $3 extra, and only white rice was included. When the bill came I noticed the up charge and went online to see that a 3 (no dollar sign) was in teeny tiny print. If I was told of the extra charge I would have ordered a more expensive meal that would end up being the same price! I doubt I will return, and this used to be a favorite for my children and grandchildren. read more

Great food and service. Intimate setting. Teriyaki salmon and lettuce wraps were delicious!

It was horrible the food was cold when I got it and there was not one but three hairs in my food and the waitress questioned me asking if it was my hair and then after 3 minutes of questioning me she finally took it back and then I get the bill I had my family of 5 with me and gave her self 21$ tip when the only thing she really do was carry out water??? When I asked her about it she gave me attitude saying(if I can read I would of known) and when I asked to see it on the menu she dodged my question and went back to what she was doing I spent 135 for cold food slow service and rudeness!!! I do not recommend stay away!!!!! read more

Clean & quiet. They had a super cute patio set up for outside dining. Lots of things to choose from on the menu. Food & Thai Tea was okay. Definitely not authentic Thai food. But I was visiting from California so I didn't have too many options to choose from when I had a craving for Pad Thai. Best thing about dining there was the service. The waitresses were nice & checked on me a few times. Also bagged my food up for me. read more

I ordered takeout with my parents during covid, and I have to commend the staff here for taking all the proper precautions. They had a clear system inside for picking up food, a new plexiglass separator between the customer and staff, multiple pumping stations of hand sanitizer, and all of the employees were wearing masks. I am SO happy to support a local business like this that is taking the proper precautions to protect their staff and customers. Thank you, Tantra! Even after driving back to Rock Island with our food, it was still warm! They do an amazing job and my meals from here have always been excellent! read more

I really enjoyed Tantra. I was recommend the restaurant while get service done on my vehicle and I can say they didn't disappoint. I had the crispy lettuce wraps as an appetizer and did it to go. I was happy the lettuce wraps didn't get soggy and appears to have been packaged to preserve the contents. I highly recommend trying those and I plan to go back to experience more items. read more

There was a short red colored hair in my rice and when I called to get a refund they said they don't do that... Their chicken is mushy and distasteful. It was my first time trying this place and I will never go back. read more

This place always has fantastic food and service as well as ambiance. Have been coming here for a decade... Can't say enough good things about it. Wine selection is phenomenal, beer selection same. Can't comment on drinks other than that... Soooooooooooo good! read more

Quaint & relaxing, just choose your dish wisely. Some times the photos do not do it justice. Still looking for a genuine Asian dish, maybe not this one but enjoy your meal nonetheless. read more

We used to LOVE this place when Kevin was the owner. Tried it as carry out and ordered the Thai Chili Cashew, and neither my husband or I could eat it ... it was not good at all. Cashews soggy, sauce very thin like water. We were SO disappointed. I called to voice my concern and the new owner just apologized but never offered anything else, not even a free appetizer. Poor customer service. We miss you Kevin!! read more

Great service and great food! Loved sitting out door and hanging out with my family. The food was delicious. I had a bite of all of our dishes and everything kept getting better and better! I have the seafood combo. It has a bit of a kick but i love that type of this. The white rice helped if it was a little too spicy. The tempura green beans for dessert was 5 stars as well! read more

Without question the best in the quad cities for Asian fusion cuisine. Eat in and enjoy the lovely atmosphere and great service, food and drinks. It may not look like much on the outside, but you will not be disappointed.... best with you and a date , but I've taken my whole family there read more

We decided to order takeout from here and I got the pad thai which it was good but noodles were dry. In my opinion it needed more sauce. The nice part was they give you alot of noodles. We also got khao soi which was great but did not get as big of a portion. read more

The decor was pretty cool. Dug it. The service was average. Wasn't bad, wasn't great. The food was pretty good, but wasn't amazing. The portion sizes were very small and the prices high, in comparison to other thai spots in the QC. Exotic Thai isn't far from this place: go there and save some money and get more food. read more

Lotus Asian Bistro - Asian Fusion Near Me - Davenport, Iowa

I've come here a few times and it's been a mixture of emotions each time. Some dishes we like, some we don't. This last time we went was pretty decent. The prices are a bit high here though, so we don't come too often. This time we got a Roti Canai for an appetizer, Drunken Noodles, and Korean Short Ribs. Roti Canai: This was unlike the traditional Roti Canai that I've had at a restaurant chain, Penang. I was a bit surprised how different it looked, but it tasted pretty good. They basically give you a pancake type of oily bread that you rip and dip into curry. They gave a good amount of curry, so we had some leftover after we finished our bread. So when our other two dishes and rice came, we basically ended up with a 3rd dish of some curry! Score! Drunk Noodles: This dish surprised me a bit too. I'm used to eating this at Thai restaurants with flat noodles, but it comes with small glass noodles. The taste was decent, but I kind of miss the larger flat noodles for this dish. Korean Short Ribs: This wasn't the best korean short ribs dish that we've had. The meat wasn't too sweet, so it didn't taste like Korean Short Ribs to me. On the plus side, they give a LOT of short ribs, so if you're here for quantity, this would be good. Atmosphere: They dim the lights really low here. I guess it's supposed to be romantic, but I usually like to see what I'm eating, so for me, it ruins the atmosphere a bit. read more
