Lotus (已結業)

The service here is never great but this evening was particularly bad.  I had to chase the waitress twice to get any attention.  When wee ordered, we were told they had no white wine.  When I asked about several items on the menu, I was told they were not available.  I then asked what was available, an incredible question to ask at a restaurant, and she told me she did not know.  She said her boss changed everything.  I felt very sorry for the waitress.  We left.

On the tab, it explicitly says service charge. For the service that you receive, am I right? This place outraged me. I had ordered a pint of beer from the tap. After approx 20 mins, I wondered where it was so I went up to the bar and asked where it was. The same guy (with a top knot) who took my order said that the beer that I was asking about had sold out. Couldn’t he just tell me that in the first place when he took my ordered instead of making me WAIT and then PERSONALLY come over the enquire

椰汁芒果紫米飯每次食泰菜既必吃甜品，一般都係用普通既糯米飯，呢度用左相對健康既紫糯米，喜歡吃紫糯米，煙煙韌韌，芒果又甜又多，個芒果奶製品好大個，再加上少少椰汁就更加香

Lotus is an open air restaurant which attracts many types of customers at night ranging from tourist to expats and some occasional businessmen and women out for some chill atmosphere to drink but when its busy it gets quite hard to place an order as there was only one wait staff taking down the orders n only one bartender. I realized it had been some since my drink had yet to arrive and noticed the waitress was having a hard time (I mean i would too if the restaurant was packed and people are ca

It was one of the worst restaurant I’ve been in central / Hong Kong ! I ordered a tom yum soup with prawns, I added noodles( extra 30, fair enough), I also ordered Viet spring rolls... ok so my spring rolls came, it came with ONE piece of lettuce, I asked if I could please get more lettuce... lady was like it’s extra 10dollars... like what?!?? The skin of the spring rolls were nice and crispy, the taste was good and I liked the texture, but the filling.... no meat, only vermicelli! This was abou

因為這間餐廳就在半山行人電梯旁，平時放工經過總是人頭湧湧，今次lunch time經過見到只得一、兩枱客，與很久不見的朋友敍舊想坐得舒服一點就選了這裡。我點了香茅雞翼飯，味道普通，雖然整個午飯時段只得一個樓面同事，但上菜的速度尚算很快。午市set lunch 有免費餐飲，我點了泰式凍奶茶，我其實是接受這種很橙的茶色（因為記得去旅行時在曼谷飲過的奶茶也是如此），反而是覺得這裡的茶沖得很淡。總括而言，也許因為這裡其實是一間酒吧，食物的質素真的頗一般，但環境是好的。

I had a classic Thai green curry. The portion was very small, the taste was not really authentic and was quite bland and salty. Rice had to be ordered separately and the portion was small. The value for money was poor, especially considering the serving size.

Went here for lunch with a colleague. I ordered the pad Thai with chicken and was told there was no chicken version, i then asked for the vegetarian one (which was on the menu) and was told they didn't have that either. I then ordered the satay skewers which i was told again they did not have. Eventually they told me they could make vegetarian pad Thai so i had that. The food was tasty (despite not really being what i wanted) and my colleague liked it too. We then were given a small desert which

The Location: The restaurant under review is situated in the heart of Soho, right next to the Mid-Level-Escalators. Soho is part of Central in the Central & Western District of Hong Kong where most Westerners live - as the name might suggest :-) The Place: Lotus is a modern Thai restaurant situated in the corner of Shelley Street and Staunton Street offering outside and inside seating. The restaurant is fairly small yet still being able to accommodate around 60 people, I would guess. It does not

My boyfriend and I came for dinner here as part of a groupon deal. The deal included a thom ya soup to share, an appetizer platter to share, a thai chicken curry to share and dessert each. As we sat down the waitress brought out the soup which was delicious. The platter was then brought out before we asked for it and the soup taken away before we had finished it. While we were eating the appetizers the main came out. We started to feel like we were being rushed out. I told the waitress to please

Grimbergen beer($68) is a Belgian beer. This draft is very light and smooth; a great choice if you were bored with the popular Hoegarden.Rose wine($80) is a pretty good choice for ladies, if you were bored by the normal house red and whites.I am writing becoz there is rarely a chill out bistro that you could enjoy an alfresco feeling and at the same time sitting down 'safely' when raining.The atmosphere was quite laid back on a Sunday evening. Service was slow when there came up to 6 tables of c

We had been here a few times before because the food is acceptable compared to other places in central and the location is nice and open.Their pad thai is quite nice and green curry is decent, which is why we chose to come here. Surprisingly the pad thai which was originally $98 for a set lunch had moved over to the $138 "signature" lunch set, so we didn't order it.Avoid the thai iced tea. Not even worth drinking if they give it to you, and they do not offer syrup like other places.But I will ne

Perched at the midlevels escalator's Staunton Street landing, Lotus affords the perfect place to see and be seen. I often come here with friends for happy hour or drinks on lazy Sunday afternoons. The service, unfortunately, has really gotten bad over the past two to three months. The man and woman who usually work behind the bar fixing and pouring drinks are doing an outstanding job; no complaints with them at all--I'd like to tell them to keep up the good work! The problem is with the wait

2011.4.20 天晴、清涼之前因工作關係常到Soho食飯，但未試過這間Lotus。今次是趁honey day off，便買了OpenRice團購coupon@$59 x2一起去試。4月3日我已致電book 4月20日2:00pm食lunch，但那位菲律賓女職員草草趕著收線，令人不安。出於擔心，4月19日我致電re-confirm 翌日booking，第1次是打不通，第2次是留voicemail但沒有回覆，第3次終於有人接聽，仍是那位菲律賓女職員。她果然表示: I don't have your booking record! 我堅持當初booking的情況有並表示coupon已是last 2 days，她才表示: Ok, see u tmr! 唉... 把車泊在IFC後，沿著footbridge乘著陽光與涼風漫步而上，與匆匆上班人群形成對比，倍感寫意。 電梯左轉角正是開揚的Lotus了，那位菲律賓女職員沒有核對booking便很causal地(求其)"指"我們去坐sofa，之後又表示我們可坐bar table。她收去我的OP coupon，放下menu便走了。當時2:00pm只餘

之前在團購網上推薦午市套餐的優惠券，原本是看到餐廳評論不錯，優惠券的價格又頗為吸引（一份小食、主食、甜品和飲料，加上服務費才59元），兩全其美，抱著不如一試的心態買來和友人同去。好不容易預定到了座位，已經是優惠的最後一天。小食點了冬陰功湯和素春捲，主食點了菠蘿炒飯和泰式金邊粉。沒想到，把小食和一份主食吃完了，連甜品都上來了，第二份主食還是毫無蹤影，催了好幾次，得知原來只有一個廚師！天哪！若是週末悠閒的中午或是放工後的晚飯也就算了，可這是工作日的中午啊！老闆高懸利劍，客戶電話緊逼下的一頓“工作午餐”，最後主食上來的時候，大快朵頤，風捲殘雲，草草了事，扔下優惠券倉惶截的士而去，還是從午飯時間一直吃到了下午茶時間。怪不得隔壁台的寧可放棄一道主食“奪路而逃”，而另一桌並不是拿優惠券來的客人，抱怨根本“無服務”，不願全價買單。食物方面，友人對冬陰功湯評價不錯，而我吃不了辣，覺得春捲質量可以接受；“泰式奶茶”口感奇怪，應該是放多了冰，非常淡；而甜品的椰汁黑糯米果然“甜”得發膩；金邊粉不夠幹身，而吃菠蘿炒飯的時候，已經等得毫無心情。總體而言，食物質量平平，若是能快半個小時，59元的午市套餐算是“物超
