Fried shrimp dinner
bec s.

Pease was super nice and smiling taking my order. This place is a gem. Shrimp dinner for $9! Wish they had outside seating because a little chilly and noisy. Note: bring scissors or they have some to cut open tarter sauce packets! And paper towels on table tear badly Still love this place

Top-fully loaded loud pack  Bottom-hotbox
Chris H.

Great food, full of flavor and pretty good value. I usually get the fully loaded loud pack and my wife gets the hot box. Her only complaint is that sometimes her crab cluster will be missing a leg... Oh well, things happen.

Daiquiri- Where's the liquor? Lol

I frequent the lotus on Veterans Memorial mostly, as it's closer to my house. I've heard so many great things about the Stafford location and since I was in the area, I decided to give it a try. Needless to say I will stick with my veterans memorial location, while Stafford has the bells and whistles of a nice, updated area inside, it's nothing like the customer service at veterans and the food and flavors at veterans. Maybe I am a little bias. Lol. Portions on my loud pack felt like I was most definitely missing some items. The food was hot and fresh, just missing my veterans memorial flavors. Yes at Stafford, you get daiquiris which I thought did not have any alcohol in them and mixed drinks. I felt as if I was having a slushy, and not the one from sonic. The mixed drinks might be good, but I didn't try those so I can't speak on them. It is counter service and you clean your own tables, granted the person before you clean up behind themselves. If you're in the area, I suggest you give it a try otherwise I would not make a commute just to go here. It's pretty basic to say the least.

On this visit, I more so came for family time as I was still full from my massive lunch. However, lol, it is hard to go to Lotus and not get anything, so I got corn on the cob, sausage, and a daiquiri which was just what my taste buds and appetite needed. The sausage and corn was of course flavorful and my daiquiri blend was great. The good thing about Lotus' daiquiri's is that you get to sample your desired blends (as many as needed) until you have your desired combination. Simply put, I just do not think you can go wrong with Lotus. Forever a fan!

Hot Box

BEST FLAVORING HANDS DOWN! Food: I had the hot pot. Only because bugs are out of season. Oh man. The sauce was amazing, the boil was just right on peel for shrimp and crab. Then the owner kindly gave me some crack sauce. I know why they call it crack sauce now. By the end of dinner I was sucking it out of a bag trying to get my fix. Ambiance: It's just right for what it is. It's clean, and it smells like delicious seafood boil. Nothing too fancy. Service: The gentleman who helped me at the bar was the kindest (unfortunately I caught him right at his break). other than that, this maybe could use a slight pep in its step. If you ask, they most kindly respond! It might have been a weird hour since I was at the bar alone, so I won't dock any points here. The owner himself made up for any lack there! I'll 100% make this drive back during crawfish season

Good solid seafood with a cool low key vibe. Haven't tried other locations but this location have plenty parking spots available. I appreciate the ease of parking. I love they have happy hour during the week. They have boil or fried seafood options with a full bar. You order your food at the counter and they bring it to your table. We usually get the boiled shrimp pack that comes with 1 corn and 1 potato. Portions are hefty with plenty leftover. This time we tried the boiled crawfish which were a little hard and I've had better to be honest. Wouldn't get the crawfish again. But the wings are delicious! My favorite go to place for boiled shrimp and or wings. The Louisiana remix and Louisiana rub flavors are my favorites for the wings. I could see ordering a 10 piece with fried rice and being completely content. Overall for 2; we spent about $60 with the tip. Next time I'll try the fried rice!

A MUST!!!!! This place is amazing the food is delicious and the service is so inviting i realky enjoyed it....very busy environment but definitely worth the sit down....My family and I ordered the FULLY LOADED LOUD PACK (spicy) which was Shrimp (large), corn, sausage, potatoes && boiled eggs over a bed of fried crawfish and shrimp rice with a side of CRACK SAUCE as they call it! So if you're in town or on this side of town stop by and try them and leave your review ;) I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE IT!!!! THANKS LOTUS FOR HAVING US see you all again soon

First time visiting Lotus Seafood, and I'm definitely coming back! The place wasn't crowded at all, so there was plenty of seating to choose from. I loved that they have a full bar with TVs all around, making it easy to relax and enjoy a good meal. They offer a nice selection of daiquiris, cocktails, and mixed drinks--perfect for pairing with their amazing seafood. And I have to mention the crack sauce! This sauce is out of this world, so if you go, just trust me and order extra packets--you'll thank yourself later. The service was fantastic, too. The guy working the cashier was super friendly and took the time to explain each dish since it was my first visit. I really appreciated how thorough he was in helping me choose. Overall, an incredible first experience with delicious food and great drinks.

Lotus is definitely one of my top spots for fried fish. The catfish fillets are cooked to perfection--crispy, well-seasoned, and consistently good. My family enjoys visiting the Stafford location, and the food keeps us coming back. That said, there are a few areas that could improve. The customer service could be better, as some staff members do not consistently show politeness or strong customer service skills. Additional training would make a noticeable difference. Cleanliness is another concern. Customers are expected to clean up after themselves, but not everyone does, which can leave the dining area messy and affect other guests. More frequent table checks or staff support would help keep the space cleaner. The sides are not the best, but they are decent. The crack sauce is good, although I do not like that there is an extra charge for it. Even so, we still purchase it. Overall, despite these issues, we enjoy Lotus and will continue to be customers.

Ordered the gumbo and crackers and the spiciest level of the snow crab cluster. Really yummy food and the spiciness was very good and yet it didn't overpower the crab flavor.

Lotus used to be my favorite for spicy crab legs and shrimp. I always used to go to Lotus when they were at main location off belfort. Today I stopped at the one in Mo City. Ordering was easy but they were out of fried green tomatoes...which is what I wanted to try. We got the loaded hot box, kids popcorn shrimp and fries, a Hurricane Wine drink and the fried Oyster, side of mac, fries and fish plate. My hot box was good but my sons mac was given to him in an enclosed mini to go plastic container and was barley warm. He liked the fries but not the shrimp. My mom ate her fish but she said it was gritty and passed on the 2nd piece. The front desk people were very nice and the decor of cartoon characters was cute...they have a full bar too....but since the food didn't wow me this time I won't be back to this location.

Hot Box !!!

Just wasn't so sure it was actually snapper as it had the texture of catfish. Not as big a fan of the Mexican shrimp cocktail as it was mostly sauce, but the shrimp were good.

My husband ordered the red fish pontchartrain and I had the snapper Opelousas which has a couple small shrimp and crawfish in garlic sauce. They were both really good. I think we preferred the snapper just based on the thin fillets but the red fish was exactly how it should be. Each was like $15 and came w rice and a veggie (his was corn). We paid the extra 1.50 for garlic bread instead of regular bread and I wouldn't do that again. Only one side had butter and garlic and it wasn't very impressive. The meals and sides were very plentiful and the sauces were great. My husband also had a cup of lobster bisque and really enjoyed it. The prices are amazing! The service overall was a bit slow, if you are in a hurry just let them k ow and I bet they'd help get you in and out. Totally worth checking out!

There was only one bartender who was overwhelmed with the amount of guest she had to take care of. Seems like management really dropped the ball on scheduling staff.

Maybe next time management can try to schedule staff better as the FIFA World Cup games continue to play out.

Although there were plenty of empty tables, we had to wait about 20 minutes to be seated because they were short-staffed. The server we had was excellent and did the best she could, so no complaints about her service. The real problem was the food. I ordered the boiled crawfish and shrimp, and the broth looked like muddy swamp water and tasted even worse. It was so bad that I actually regurgitated after eating it. I brought the issue to the manager's attention, and the response I received was basically, "Okay." There was little concern shown about the quality of the food or my experience. I was very surprised that the general manager seemed unconcerned as well. As someone who has always enjoyed Razzoo's, this was extremely disappointing. I will not be returning to this location, and I will be sharing my experience with friends and family. I hope they improve their food quality and customer service in the future because this location definitely needs to get it together.

Pappadeaux Seafood Kitchen did NOT disappoint !…read more We ordered a mix of fried seafood, oysters, and a loaded baked potato, and everything was so flavorful and satisfying.

There is plenty of seating now and even a nice structure outside to enjoy your meal overlooking the legendary waters outside Ocean Palace, if you are so inclined. I can see why this place is an even bigger draw than before.
