    Mongolian beef, teriyaki stick, fried dumplings, white rice, and crab Rangoon.

    Dissatisfied, disappointed and angry with my online pick up order. Not quality food--- the teriyaki beef was tough; the 4 crab Rag and 4 tiny fried dumplings were soggy, the Mongolian Beef portion was small, barely had any onions and the sauce lacked flavor. I was told it wasn't ready yet when I got there about five minutes early than the quoted time, and they had it ready on time, but it all was barely warm despite being in a metallic tray and in a bag. My ride home was less than 10 minutes away. I did not like the condiments flavors. Definitely not worth the $45 plus price tag.

    Dinner Box #3...Sweet-n-Sour Chicken with Pork Fried Rice, Teriyaki Chicken Stick, Egg roll and Dumplings

    Second time we have been there and both times have been great! The food is awesome and you get a decent amount for the price. They have just a little different way of presenting your food options, which makes it a little unique, for example...yes, the Pu Pu Platter is the traditional serving dish with the little fire in the center - love that - as a lot of Chinese restaurants don't serve that way anymore. And their boxes! Love that idea. You start with your main selection and then choose from the list they provide on the menu, different things you would like to be served in your box. It's also a very unique atmosphere as well. You can be casual, semi dressed up or even formal. They provide an inside setting that you could make this a very low key event to a romantic night out. And the service is awesome. They greet you upon arrival and seat rather quickly and the pace of being waited on and along with food arrival, is balanced. Oh and the quality and taste of the food is spot on, not greasy, dried out or chewy, or that weird taste from one piece of chicken you question it - nope, none of that. And their Teriyaki Chicken Stick had a hint of BBQ taste, that was great. So if in the Auburn area, stop by, you'll be glad you did, and for me, I cannot wait to go back again!

    First and last visit . 5 stars for Mongolian beef and super wonton noodle soup . 1 star for tasteless fried rice and egg rolls . And negative stars for cleanliness and no air circulation . 3 star for service . I felt cat fished from what I read and saw online. Both of our drinking glasses had chipped lips .I do have pictures of chipped glasses and cleanliness but I will not post them unless asked too.

    Hard to decide between 3.0 and 4.0 so I rounded up. For Auburn, ME this is pretty decent Americanized Chinese food. The service was very friendly, the portions were excellent and reasonably priced. Some of the dishes were hit or miss, though. My wife enjoyed her beef and snow peas, and I liked my General Tsao chicken quite a bit. The pork fried rice was decent but not noteworthy. The eggrolls were disappointing...obviously frozen and then undercooked. Overall a pleasant experience and would come back again if we were in the mood for this kind of Chinese food.

    Mongolian barbecue, pork fried rice, steamed broccoli and teriyaki chicken skewers.

    My wife Rebecca anK Steven Ray Chapman love eating at the Lotus restaurant in Auburn. The food is…read morealways hot and delicious and if you go away hungry it's your own fault! lol The wait staff are always friendly and helpful. I have a hard time walking with a desman in my hands and they are always willing to help me. Also their are Filipino and Filipinas and my wife who is a Filipina can converse with them in her native language. The price is right! Go for it!

    My Mom spoke highly of this restaurant before our day trip to ME but my Mom wasn't impressed this…read moreday. Buffet style of chinese & american foods. We arrived around 4pm so they must of switched over from lunch to dinner. There were a lot of trays that had very little food in them, empty or dried out. I did get creeped out when I saw behind the waitress stands where the soda machines are along with other junk stored back there, it just looked so dirty & gross. I was disgusted and soooooo afraid of eating the food there & drinking from the cups. I was praying that I wouldn't get sick. Its funny because I kept this thought to myself & my friend that was also with us happened to say something to me about how the restaurant was dirty & then I shared my thoughts with her and she was hoping not to get sick either..........Well we did get lucky & neither of us got sick but I definitely wouldn't come back to eat in here. A few of the bowls had water in them & some particles after being washed which was gross. We went to get some ice cream & the water bin that the ice cream scoop was in was sooo disgusting I was afraid to get ice cream. My guess is it's just from the different flavors of ice cream mixed in with the water that is used to rinse off the ice cream?? Staff needs to change the water more often. Their chicken tenders were terrible & dried out. The only thing that tasted fresh was their donuts but that was only because I caught a new batch that had been brought out. The ladies room was dirty even the light socket (see my photo) like do they even have a cleaning crew?? I'm curious what kind of rating that they have from the food inspector?? We never got an itemized reciept, just one that said how much we owe & this drives me crazy as if restuarants are trying to hide charges when they don't give you an itemized one, which we know that it can be done. We were curious how much the buffet was & how much the drinks were so I had asked on my way out. I couldn't believe that this place was a little busy as if the customers in here were repeat ones because I was just so creeped out with the dirtiness of this restaurant & the presentation of the food. The sushi looked fresh but didn't taste very good. A lot of staff was standing around the bar, to bad they weren't keeping themselves busy by cleaning up the place. There was also a family of a Mom & Dad with two young boys. The youngest boy was walking all over the booth seat with his shoes on & climbing all over the table. They even let the older boy (probably 8yrs old) head up to the buffet by himself. It's just surprising how families can't behave when out in public & forget that they're not at home. Sorry, but I can't recommend eating at this place. Save your money & health and stay away.
