Had a great experience overall. The owner was very welcoming and took the time to speak with us personally, which made the visit feel much more inviting. The service was impressively fast, with our food arriving in about twenty minutes, and everything we ordered was delicious. The Peking ravioli and fried rice were clear favorites among our group. Would definitely recommend read more

I would only rate the drinks as a 10 Food is ok if there is no other place open at that time when you're looking for something quick read more

My family and I have been going to Medway Lotus for years. When my now grown kids come home we make it a tradition to go to there. The food is fantastic and the owner and staff are very friendly. We highly recommend it. read more

Love it here! Bar is back open with karaoke on weekends. Food is always good and drinks still affordable for a night out around here read more

Medway Lotus Restaurant - Special 8! - Chinese Near Me - Medway, Massachusetts

Staff is great, very friendly. Clean place. This was just not the best,fried shrimp over cook along with crab Rangoon orange chicken was best dish. They need more flavor rice and lo mein not much flavor. Chow mein was bad I got a piece of chicken that was completely grey on the end.... And white in front... it looked like an oyster .. and not in a good way! I wanted to like this place... it just didn't cut it. I'm on a quest to get the perfect Chinese that suits me and at this point I tried quite a few. Try for yourself you might be surprised... maybe they were having an off day. But the family agreed it was bland read more

I LOVE this place! I love the look, the vibe, the atmosphere and especially the staff! I've lived in Wrentham for over a decade and my go-to spot has always been Hang Tai which is still fantastic. But to me there's plenty of room for a second favorite as well, haha! Mai tais are fantastic, you can order them to go as well! And I like their food, it's standard Chinese-American fare and from my experience it's always been hot and fresh, I'm really a pupu platter type of guy, so I don't get to exotic with my orders, so I can't comment on some of the stuff others have mentioned. But I will say this...EVERY time I've gone in there they treat me like royalty and like family, it really is a great atmosphere as are the other locals! read more

Food is passable but greasy . The lounge is the place to go . When we were there , there was 1 waiter serving drinks etc .. they were strong too . Karaoke is funny to watch , not very much talent in Medway . The waiter always forgets how many drinks you had when you cash out . 4 of us got shitfaced for like $30 . Can't beat that . read more

Food terrible not fresh soup wonton chicken tasted funny, sweet and sour soup tasted like vinegar awful never recommend this place

Great food served very quickly...and reasonably priced!! We will definitely be coming back again.

Good Spot I have been going to Medway Lotus for years now. The owners are so friendly and have always treated us well. Excellent quality of food (subjective when rating a Chinese restaurant ). They are very accomodating...if I want a plate of chicken fingers, chow mein and rice they will make it for me even if not on the menu. Pu Pu platter is good, drinks are good, its fast, friendly, and high quality. We live 40 miles away and still think its well worth the trip. I have been to several chinese food restaurants in my life (heck lets be honest..HUNDREDS of chinese food restaurants) and I think overall this is one of the better ones based on food, service and friendly atmosphere. We will be back many, many more times. Thanks read more

So fast , I even not finished my ordering call " OK, ready in 10 mins..." I dont need that fast , I need good food ! take you time to cook . food is very bad , no tasty at all , like simply put some sauces on the days old food from refrigerator . read more

Don't go to this restaurant.. the people are nice.. but the restaurant is dark and not clean. The food is ok, but not worth going to a dark and not too clean place to eat.... I would AVOID!!! read more

I love their beef Lo Mein and crab rangoon. They prepared the BLM without MSG or mushrooms at my request. It was delicious and quick. The bar is also great for karaoke and meeting people. Drinks are strong and everything is reasonably priced. What more could you ask? read more

Not hygienic. Food was below average. They can improve of taste, sauces and freshness of the ingredients. The restaurant benches where painful to sit on. read more

I've been going to this restaurant for at least 25 years now, since it was China Lotus. The food used to be good but has gone WAY downhill. Burnt rice, chicken dishes containing chicken fingers from a pupu platter, tasteless brown gravy. On the other hand, karaoke nights are still some of the best fun you can have in the area. read more

Food was good. Good size portions and always nice and hot. People are always super nice and service is prompt.

Food is good but service is always the best and friendliest and great people to talke to

I have had Chinese food in numerous states and countries. This is by far my favorite Chinese restaurant! Best Rangoon's! Joe's memory is phenomenal! He always remembers what you ordered prior. I used to live 4.5 Hrs. away north. Anytime in the area I had to stop in. Now that I moved back down here it is by far my GO TOO! read more

This was my 2nd time in, and it was fabulous, again. I was by myself, sat at the bar. The bartender approached me within seconds and got my drink in front of me. The food is delicious- went with crispy crab Rangoon, chicken fingers & veggie fried rice. Looking forward to the leftovers tomorrow! I asked to have a college football game put on & this was done right away. Just a great place with attentive service & delicious food. read more

Amazing food! Miss it! Love this place! We don't get this kind of food in the south!! Wish I had some of the recipes!

The Friendliest staff you will find at a restaurant / bar. Also helps that the have some of the best New England Style Chinese Food around. Beef and Pea Pods and the Bone in Spare Ribs are my favorites but all the standard American Chinese food apps are fantastic. Can't go wrong here. read more

The one star Is for our very nice & helpful waiter. The food: Absolutely not. Beyond disappointing. I can't remember the last time I had such terrible Chinese food. Practically burnt noodles that tasted like the smell of a wok (if you have one at home you know what I mean.) General Gau Chicken - was like poorly prepared dark meat sweet & sour. Even the fried appetizers were awful. How do you screw those up? We went b/c the place is always packed. (Why? The syrupy sweet strong drinks & karaoke???) read more

This has to be the worst Chinese food I've ever had hands down. No clue why these guys are in business let alone have good reviews. I have nothing against the workers or restaurant but the food is terrible. Lo mein was dry and half burnt. Quality of everything in our pu-pu platter was trash, absolutely flavorless and greasy. I love dumplings, u really have to mess them up for me not to eat them, I take a bite and I decided I've had enough. I will never be eating here again. The people giving this place good reviews are drunks who love cheap drinks and karaoke. I was Very disappointed read more

Make sure you know what to expect when you go to the Lotus. It is New England Americanized Chinese food just like what I remember from the 80s. The decor is dated but it kind of adds to the charm of the place imo. We went on a Friday night, sat in the bar area. The drinks are responsibly priced and there are good options. We started with a scorpion bowl for 4 and tried others from there. Karaoke kicked in around 8:30pm and the eclectic crowd really got bigger around 10pm. It was a mix of all ages, some there for the food, some the drinks and a few for karaoke. Our server was awesome, very friendly and obviously has worked there a long time. We'll go back and now we really know what to expect. read more

Lets talk about a non-inclusive Medway Lotus being DISCRIMINATORY! THIS IS NOT A PLACE TO BRING ANYONE WITH SPECIAL NEEDS! STAFF MADE THIS CLEAR! This review could go on for days about the decor being dated, the food being mediocre, poorly made mixed drinks. Rather, this review will to talk more about the customer/staff interactions. What I witnessed tonight saddened me to my very core. A sequence of events lead to a small group of friends wanting to get some late night food. As we entered the bar section of the restaurant the 'bouncer', not doing his job, allowed for us to enter without checking any ids. So it wasn't surprising to find the room was full of minors. As we sat to order our food and drinks, one of our friends who happens to have a social cue disorder (Asperger syndrome), being his normal friendly self decided to say hello to a group of 8 people at another table next to us. This conversation lasted a good 15 or so minutes, and from my perspective they were all having a friendly conversation. Moments later, with no warning, he was approached by the bouncer, and was told to leave the building. At this time, we were just getting our food as I noticed the bouncer escorting my friend outside. My husband immediately went to address the situation. In turn he was kicked out for inquiring why it was that someone who was being nice and friendly was kicked out? If the table had any issue, why did they not voice, "please can you leave our table". Instead this table engaged him, not only inside, but a few even followed outside to continue and talk to him and apologize for the situation as they smoked their cigarets. I asked the owner/manager, why it was they asked for them to leave and all they could reply with was that a man from that table next to us was uncomfortable and had asked for him to be removed. Never have I ever seen anyone kicked out of any venue for being too nice. I respect that someone was uncomfortable, I respect that someone would want someone to leave them alone if they were being bothered. But, without an inkling of a clue? How about, don't engage in conversation, and someone won't continue to talk! On a normal occasion this may not impact me so much. However, the way the bouncer handled the situation was uncalled for. What I find most interesting is the bouncer is not in the room at all during this to witness anything, rather in the front lobby. So he has no real idea one way or another. Perhaps to do his job more efficiently he should not only CHECK IDS, but be present so he can actually see these interactions in order to make better judgement calls as I addressed with the manager, who responded with, "The bouncer is here to kick people out when someone is unhappy or uncomfortable." Well I was unhappy and uncomfortable with the lack of understanding and they did nothing to remedy this. Again, I could complain all day about the actions of the staff at Medway Lotus resulting in my poor experience. After working for/with the local Milford community and the Best Buddies program for nearly a decade, the inclusive programs for children, young adults, and adults with special needs, which I do remind myself do not exist everywhere as proof right here, I am disheartened by the lack of discussion or willingness to even look into the matter. It was all cut and dry for them. I will iterate again that this is not a place of inclusivity. This is not a place to bring anyone with a disability of any kind. My suggestion to the Manager and owner of Medway Lotus would be to hire a more socially aware bouncer who could do his job more efficiently and not just be there to collect a pay check. read more

The Bouncer is a very nice guy named Ryan .. He keeps things under control for the customers

If you like your Vegetable fried rice tasting bland and burnt at the same time with a few pieces of pepper and onions, then you'll love it. Same for Beef LoMein, no flavor except burnt. No Asian flavor, just bland and burnt. Both are dark in color, like black. never seen fried rice thats black. Both the crab rangoons and Sweet and Sour chicken were greasy and smelled like old oil. It will be a miracle if I get through the night without vomiting. I don't how this place has any good reviews! I wish I'd looked at the recent ones that described similarly disappointing food. read more

My husband and I have ben a frequent customer of this place. Plates used to be so on point and fresh , now it almost every time its not worthy of another chance. Tonight was another disappointment wont be back. cant wrap my head around why the quality have gone foul! read more

I probably would give this restaurant a zero if I could. And this is the first restaurant review I've ever done. We are staying at the comfort inn nearby. Once we looked online for a place to order delivery, this restaurant says delivery. However when we figured out what we wanted and called there was no delivery. I thought we can DoorDash and it wasn't available on DoorDash. So we called to place our order, called an Uber and went to pick it up. We ordered egg drop soup, house special fried rice, general Tao's chicken, kung pao chicken, dumplings, four spring rolls and the double flavor delight. Our total came to $77 and some change. This was the worst Chinese food I have ever had. And I have had lots of Chinese food all over the country. It was horrible. It was simply bland. Before we left the restaurant we asked for duck sauce, hot mustard, and soy sauce. With all this food he gave us three packs of soy sauce, what appeared to be a watered down hot mustard in a tiny container about two tablespoons full, and something that was supposed to be ginger sauce. Everything was simply bland. The only thing I could eat a little bit of was the vegetables and they didn't have any flavor except their own. I'm visiting here from North Carolina. So sorry I didn't choose someplace else because I was hungry. read more

My first time at this restaurant.It's a pretty big restaurant. Price is reasonable. Singapore noodles and Curry chicken were good. I did not like the hot and sour soup nor the chicken fried rice. Yesterday was a Sunday and there was just one person attending many tables. Drink prices are reasonable. read more

Medway Lotus Restaurant - Booths at the restaurant - Chinese Near Me - Medway, Massachusetts

See all

We have been fans for 5 plus years, the owners and staff are phenomenal! The food is fresh and quality! We have no other place to buy from as this is it! The customer service is on point and that's a huge for me , friendly and treats all like family. Love going back to visit for a hello! They run a great ship and service is substantial , very little wait time... always greeted with a big smile of hello and how are you, only draw back for us is the bar is small, but understand they don't have room to expand and the wait might be a while as they are always full and occupied, but otherwise we will be forever customers! read more

Place was great when it was China Lotus but its awful now. The owner was terribly rude. there was only one other couple while we were there so they weren't busy. Food wasn't great and it was cold. The server seemed put out when we asked for tea, made a remark and walked away. We then asked for to go containers and that really upset him! He brought them, dropping them on the table and yelled "anything else" mumbled more and stormed off! read more

Not the Pago Pago, but damn close. These guys are awesome. My favorite spot for a good scorpion bowl and a bite to eat! I often end up getting takeout on my way home from the office. Very customer service oriented. Beef and Pea Pod Chow Yoke is the best around. read more

I used to live near Boston and went into Chinatown all the time. Also, I have been to Chinatown in San Francisco. Plus, I had a Chinese girlfriend and we went out to eat she ordered in Chinese. Now living in Medway I try the same thing at each Chinese restaurant to find the best. Here is my review of Medway lotus. The karaoke bar looks interesting and I might go there for a mai tai and check out the singers. The food is something else. I ordered pork egg foo young and house special fried rice. I got three egg foo young's and on the first two I ate, I thought they forgot to add pork but on the third one there was one piece of pork. The fried rice was not but regular white rice with some meat thrown in. Basically rice with meat and nothing else. Over all the taste on this food was very bland. read more

This place is a DUMP! You can tell the restaurant isn't well maintained just from the outside, let alone he outdated and dirty inside. The bar is so dark and dingy it is almost spooky. The food was not good whatsoever. I ordered vegetable lomein and vegetable fried rice, and it was horrible. All of their food has this brown, congealed look. Do yourself a favor and do not go here! read more

Best Chinese food around! Excellent atmosphere owned by an excellent family. 10/10 recommend!

Good bar for karaoke on Friday and Saturday nights. There's a pool room as well. Lots of smokers out front on bar nights but usually a nice crowd. Good for takeout. I can do a whole curry chicken and a jasmine rice myself. I also like the mixed protein dish and that can be enough for 2-3 people. People mostly order fried stuff but that's what they like, I like more grill and stir fry and this place does not disappoint. The fried stuff is awesome too. read more

The food is not great here. The orders do not come out matching the description in the menu and if you complain about it , it does no good. Bad food and poor customer service. Go spend elsewhere , there are other places with good Mai Tai's! read more

Definitely a hidden and not-so-well publicized gem. Must have driven by the restaurant on Route 109 hundreds of times over the last 10 years without ever a thought of going there. It doesn't look like much from the outside. Then, over the last 2 years or so, 2 of our favorite "old school" Americanized Chinese restaurants shuttered up (Pago Pago in Milford, and South Pacific in Newton). So, out of desperation we gave it a try, and have been regulars since. Not too many places around serving the old style Subgum or Chicago chow meins, pupu platters the way they used to be, and the really dark looking fried rice ... but if you like the type of Chinese food that the restaurants your parents took you to served, give it a try. The decor is very dated, but they don't charge you an arm and a leg either. Very clean. Staff is always very pleasant and prompt. read more

Best establishment in town. Fun for all ages The food is pretty good, standard chinese food. It is cheap, made fast, and there are many things to choose from. The drinks are also great. They are strong, and cheap. A bud light and most other beers are $3. That is the cheapest in town. There are no draft beers here though......I dont care at all though I hate beer. A mixed drink is between $5-6, and like the beer is also the best value in town. Personally if you want the BEST value, get a lazer beam $7.50, but it will be worth it. The food is good, the drinks are good, but what sets the Lotus apart from anywhere I go is the hospitality. Joe and his family are pleasant to most everyone, and its very hard to get on their bad side. You have to be a real jerk to do that. This place always has people coming back for more, and thats why I always see regulars any day of the week, any time. Dont be a jerk and you will be treated MORE than well here. On friday and saturday nights there is karaoke, this brings in an older crowd to the bar area, but the young crowd like myself also still come. It is generally a good time every weekend. The bar area can get crazy indeed, but those are some of the funnest times. Anytime I want quick food that is good, and that will satisfy my appetite, the lotus is right up their on my list of places to go. I will be honest, my town medway is pretty LAME with most things closing by 10-11 on a weeknight!, but the lotus is open every night until 1am, and you can go there pretty late and still get some food to go. If you want to bring your family here too there is a lounge area. Its probably a little too crazy though later in the Friday/Saturday nights to bring kids there though. There is also a small private billiards room too if you do not want to hang out in the bar or lounger area. Overall, go here if you want, good food, good drinks, fun times, good service, hospitality- what else can I mention that I havent that you would want? There are always regulars here, so I always know people. It is my favorite place in town. it is the best place in town. ps- I am the best at hoop jones and photo hunt. read more
