Went for Easter brunch. Food was amazing. We had oysters roc'fella, oxtail, breakfast sandwich and fried salmon. Though the salmon was a bit well done, this is my first 5 for a NOLA or Miami in 5 years. Seth our waiter was very helpful. Other staff were attentive as well. Did not try cocktails,, however there were a wide variety of punches. Very bright atmosphere . Possibly too bright for me but looking forward to return. read more

Was promptly and politely seated by the male host with twists, but that's where the good customer service ended. My party and I sat at our table for over 35 minutes until we had to talk to the staff about being served. Several servers walked past our table and not once took the time to see if we had been served, which was clear due to the lack of even a drink order on the table. Once the server came to the table she not only entered our orders incorrectly, but some of our items never arrived. After spending an extended time at this restaurant to get basic services I couldn't leave fast enough. The service was so bad we didn't even feel the need to speak to the manager because clearly this business isn't being managed and the issues are systematic. Poor customer service, and overpriced food. I don't see this business lasting for long. read more

You can't deny that this place is beautiful but the food was great as well. We visited for Mother's Day through reservations and were sat right away. It didn't take too long for our food to arrive and my party enjoyed what they ordered. The noise level was a little loud between the music and voices traveling with this being a renovated shotgun house but I was still able to enjoy the conversation with my table. read more

This restaurant is cute and very bright and colorful! As soon as you walk in, the music and the vibes hit you. My group of 4 came for an Easter brunch. We had a reservation but it didn't seem necessary because it was a quiet afternoon. There was a slight wait for our menus and waters which was surprising as we were the only table. Nonetheless, our server Brenda was friendly and helpful. She took our order and explained the details of the process to us. There's a 20% service fee and some other details I don't remember. I ordered the catfish and grits etouffe. My niece ordered the oxtail and grits and my cousin had the burger. Everything was tasty and well seasoned. The portions were sizeable, so we had leftovers. It was an overall positive experience. read more

I will never return here. Food was a cluster of mismatched ingredients and way over priced. The music consisted of a giant speaker in the middle of the entire place. It was so loud in fact that sitting against the back wall away from it, we couldn't even hear each other talking. Yelling to even order food. And let's not even mention the cheap plastic table cloth on top of outdoor tables. But they did have silverware to match as in cheap black plastic. That theme continued towards the kitchen, that had no doors to it only black curtains. Spray painted old liquor bottles as a main point of decoration and terrible colors and paint job throughout. To top the mess, fans were the primary form of cooling. If you like outdoor heat and eating....inside with over priced food this place is for you. Ohh and don't bring a cake for a party, because the hidden $25 charge is also sprung on you with bill. Mind you, we didn't even eat the cake there. To finish it all off on a 20% service charge, that's not a tip. It is posted at the front counter, however we were seated through the side door so we had no idea. read more

The food by "B-Da GOAT" was amazing because we had everything from appetizers, entrees and desserts and it all "HIT!" We had a party of 20+ and the service was spectacular. All our food came out hot and timely. The Resturant's decor is simply stunning, and being a New Orleanian who grew up in the 17th Ward the Pink Lotus has elevated the neighborhood. Hat's off to my "New Favorite "Duck-Off", Resturant. read more

I ate here with a friend when we randomly observed another new restaurant had opened at this location. The initial entrance was pretty chaotic as the place was jam packed and it took us quite awhile to get seated. We were told it was brunch time so we would need to order off the brunch menu which we did but then we were told it had already transitioned to the dinner menu so we had to order again. We were waiting a really long time for our food but they did bring us a free serving of their Raq"a Fella Lotus Pearl Bread which was delicious. My dining companion had a fantastic serving of Crimson Chicken. I got the Royal Roots Platter which the menu said was oxtails, jasmine rice, yams and mac & cheese but I didn't get yams very sadly. I also discovered my oxtails were really tough and needed to have been cooked for quite awhile longer so I ended up not even eating them. My dining companion got around a 4 star experience while mine was only around a 2 star as my entree was just not so good sadly. They only have a QR code menu which was a little harder to use and then their payment system also seemed a bit wonky. Overall this seems like a cool spot and there are plenty of other items on the menu I would like to sample. read more

Let's get into the decor first. It's vibes and instagramable areas all around! You could literally have a photo shoot around the restaurant. It's curated beautifully. The service was awesome. Our waitress was attentive and by the end of our lunch it felt like we'd become friends. She more than earned the automatic 20% gratuity. The food was great. We started off strong with great appetizers. We tried the queso dip and the seafood dip and they also had an off menu special with these buffalo wontons that hit the spot as well. The entrees were very filling and we all needed take home plates. But ir you go...go for the cocktails. They were crafted beautifully. Some were strong, and some were just cute so choose wisely. I'll definitely be back. read more

Came in from Cali and I loved Pink Lotus. The fried okra with rosemary was a first time for me and they were fried perfectly. The really short waitress with braces was my favorite. She was funny and made the experience even better. We were lucky enough to be able to snag a photo with the chef as well. She was so nice. Lastly, so glad that they had prosecco. I judge restaurants on their wine and prosecco choices. Can't wait to go back. Yumm. read more

I came here with a group of friends to celebrate a friend's birthday and our server Brenda was awesome. We tried the spinach dip, lotus dip (seafood), Raq'a Fella Lotus Pearl Bread, fried okra and the buffalo chicken wontons. Everything was good but the dips were my favorite appetizers. I had the fried chicken entree and it was juiciest most flavorful fried chicken Ive had (and i rarely order fried chicken in sit down restaurants.) I had the petal punch and it definitely packed a punch! The music was great, the decor was beautiful and I will definitely be back! read more

The esthetics were nice! If you're a picture girlie, you'll love it. Very friendly atmosphere. I went here for my birthday weekend for brunch with friends. The food was delicious all around. My group had oxtails and grits, fish and gritouffe, and chicken with eggs and biscuits. Everyone loved their food. Big Baby, the bartender was such a sweetheart! Awesome personality and service! The only things I would say could improve is to have real glasses and silverware. There were also bugs like flies and gnats flying around inside. Not a ton, but a few that took away from the enjoyment. Other than that, it was nice! Would try again. read more

Pink lotus shots, spinach artichoke dip, and crawfish rise was fabulous. Ambience was very welcoming and relaxing!

Food seasoned to perfection! I had the spinach and artichoke dip and the crawfish rice -- both were amazing. The pink lemonade shots were a hit too! The atmosphere is colorful and fun, perfect for a date night or girls' night out. Can't wait to come back and try more from the menu! read more

i just left from here and i went in with high expectations, but i was let down terribly. the restaurant itself is very beautiful and nicely decorated so that's a plus! but everything else wasn't the best. first, we get seated and i can't barely hear my server because we are sitting right infront of a speaker that seems to be at max volume. me and my family eventually got super overstimulated by this and i even got a headache. second, we did get there after 1:30pm so we missed brunch. but i asked my server if they had regular grits because the only option i saw on the menu was gouda, to which he said no. which is not his fault, but it would be nice to have a regular pot of grits because not everyone can consume cheese and menu items are already limited. third, once we found out only the dinner menu was available i asked about substituting the mac and cheese because i don't eat cheese and the answer was no. it would be nice to be able to substitute my side because there is a menu item that i don't eat. fourth, my sister ordered the bang bang or boom boom chicken and she did not like it. she tasted a piece and immediately asked could she exchange it or return it. the place looked exactly how it looked when they served it to us minutes one piece of chicken being bitting off of. it's unfair to paint for food you don't like and that you didn't eat. fifth, i do not mind auto grat at all, but it is predatory when it is included and then the prompt asks you to tip more. typically after an auto grat tip the range is 5%-15% extra. but here it was 15-25%. which is insane especially bc my service was not the best. and THEN i read my receipt and it said auto grat is automatically applied for parties of 0 or more... 0 or more.. when auto grat is typically applied for larger parties in conclusion, the food wasn't great for the price point, the service wasn't the best, the ambiance was overstimulating, and the way the business is ran is a bit predatory. i won't be returning, but i hope you can take this review and possibly learn something read more

While hungry my little sister and I embarked on a journey in New Orleans to find food and stumbled upon this gem. Great customer service, music, and food. Inside and outside seating. Areas to take photos. Nice bar. My lamb burger was so delicious and the fries I wish I ordered another side of them. My sister had the chicken which she said was delicious as well and from the way my niece kept going in her bag I would have to agree. The lemonades are very good and sweet. I tried blueberry and my sister had strawberry. read more

Pink Lotus by B Spot was a whole vibe! The Crawfish Szechuan Pepper Rice had the perfect balance of heat and flavor -- spicy, savory, and full of that Louisiana kick with an Asian twist. And that Mystic Lotus Dip? Creamy, cheesy perfection -- spinach, artichoke, and all the comfort in every bite. Definitely one of those dishes you don't want to share! read more

Ok, I don't like to post reviews that are less than four stars so let me explain. I went for Mother's Day. I didn't even know this place existed and just happened onto it. It's caribbean/ creole fusion. The staff was great. The food was really and the drinks were delicious. Decor is really cute. But they were unexpectedly slammed and had a table of almost 20 people before me so my food took close to an hour to arrive. I will definitely be going back! read more

Had the opportunity to sample food at the 2025 Poboy festival. I had Lamb poboy, crawfish rice and crab dip. Omg! Tasty, not overly seasoned but seasoned to perfection. That lamb po boy was to die for. If I had the opportunity to vote, this restaurant would definitely get 1st place of everything else I sampled at the fest. Hands down the best. Will be back for the dine-in experience. You should have them a try read more

Spinach dip was very good, crawfish szechuanpepper rice was also very good. Pink lemonade drink was also nice. Overall, great food

The drinks were delicious. The food was nice. However, the music was a bit loud, but the same could be said for The B Spot. I will say that the AC seems to be blowing compared to their original spot. Also, the ambience is beautiful inside. Overall, this spot is a nice getaway after work with your friends. read more

I have to come back to experience the full menu! The spinach dip 10/10 and love the aesthetic here.

Very nice vibe for family and friends 10/10 on all drinks and food. Looking forward to coming back in the future.

Lemon drop was soooo refreshing! Mystic lotus dip was goooood! Definitely a chill spot for RnB music and drinks!

The lemon drop shot was pretty good and the chips and dip. My only small gripe is that I wish we had a little more chips for the sample.

From the moment I walked into Pink Lotus, I was blown away by the aesthetics it's absolutely stunning. Every detail, from the decor to the vibe, was on point. But what truly made my experience was my bartender, Keyira. She was not only friendly and welcoming but also knew exactly what to recommend. I had the lamb burger, and let me tell you it was chef's kiss perfection. Juicy, flavorful, and cooked just right. Definitely a 10/10. Keyira also suggested a blueberry margarita, and WOW. It was almost too pretty to drink. Once I did, I was hooked. It's now my new favorite drink. Everything about my visit was top-tier. Great food, amazing drinks, a beautiful atmosphere, and exceptional service. If you're thinking about checking out Pink Lotus, do it and ask for Keyira. read more

Went there today, however I didn't stay to eat or drink. Was told from the beginning there would be 20% service charge to the bill, and this was not a tip. Also, if you didn't like something it wouldn't be swapped out or removed from the bill. The waitress was very nice, but we chose to leave. read more

i had high hopes for this place, but i was unfortunately disappointed. the "honey glazed" salmons tasted more like soy sauce with just a hint of honey, and to top it off, there was a tiny bug on the fake flower placed on my salmon. the staff also wasn't transparent about the included gratuity; it was only shown on the payment screen, with no verbal mention. while the place is aesthetically cute, it's not worth the price. the menu is limited, and most items are fried (though you can get your salmon blackened). read more
