Love this place so much. Offers a great selection of vegan options and always nails it.

Ben Peltz

I had the Golden Curry and it was excellent. Reasonable prices, friendly service, and a nice atmosphere!

Michele Round

Great Service, incredible fresh food - will not be disappointed.

Ryan Walsh

Pleasant surprise for small town Thai.

Stephanie Dyson

My company had this for lunch today and it was pretty good! The spring rolls and wontons are really good. I have never been a fan of pad thai but everyone else really enjoyed it.

Was a bit hard to find as the house is set back from the main Street. Combo was excellent value. Well set up for Take out.

Mike Strom

Food was excellent and staff was very helpful. I would recommend this restaurant if down in St. Thomas area.

Black Stone

Ok

Provincial Clodhopper

Tonight was my family's first time ordering from Lotus Thai and it will not be the last! The food was very flavourful and amazing!. The pad thai and mango chicken stir fry were divine. The spring rolls and wontons were very tasty and the pho noodle soup was a pleasant surprise on my palate. Great Job Lotus Thai, you made a faithful customer out of us!!!

Stacey Jordan

We order their food at work all the time and we always love it! I ate in the restaurant once and they are very accommodating and very friendly staff.

Tim Janzen

Tried on a referral from a friend - great food and reasonably priced. Did both take out and dine in at the start and end of the week - equally good!

Melanie Ritcey

Best Thai takeout in St. Thomas

Joshua Roy

Our group had 3 different meals, and all 3 were delicious. Would definitely recommend. Edit: spelling correction

Kirsten Morritt

My friends and I always enjoy going to Lotus Thai. The food is delicious and they are very friendly. Highly recommend!

Topher

The service was very good and the portions were big, but unfortunately it was fairly bland. I had basil fried rice with chicken. Typically, Thai dishes like this have a mixture of sweet, sour and hot. There was a good amt of asian basil but no heat. I liked the place and would try again but not the best Thai food in St. Thomas.

Tony Marchese

Great food Amazing staff

John Blake

Excellent service and freshly prepared healthy food. You can't go wrong if you like flavorful dining.

Tony Pileggi

Large bowl of won ton soup hit the spot

Brandon Norman

Best thai food I have ever had! The chicken pad thai is definetly my go to.

Carlin Scuderi

Food was pretty average. Not bad, but I'd try a few other local Thai places before going back.

Steven Cherrin

I've experienced Lotus Thai at both a food and wine show as well as at their restaurant, and thoroughly enjoyed the food each time I've been. My favourite item on the menu is their pad thai. I've had it at many other places, but honestly never had it as good as it was at Lotus Thai. Whenever I pass through the area I try to stop in to grab a bite. The staff was really pleasant as well. Lots of smiles, and they made sure I was happy with what I was receiving. I wish I had some of the pad thai right now, actually...

Deep Ender

Great experience and great food. Portions are massive and great vegan options.

Jimmy Trieu

Excellent food. Tasty and flavorful!

Cottonball

I feel high after eating thai food

Mike Dench

Good value. Great quality. Friendly staff.

A little bit of Tina

Amazing food and great prices! I had their veggie pad Thai and spring roll Lunch special and it was so good! Only about $11 with tax and so much food!

Steph Neale

Excellent!

Kaitlin Baronas

Great food, great options and great service! Have whatever protein you eat (chicken, tofu, shrimp), their menu is small but the options available all sound tasty, makes you want to try everything they have! Look forward to going again!

James Keys

I had an amazing PadThai here. I thought it was strange that they didn’t have chopsticks, but meh. I’d eat here again.

Ivy P

Impressive me when I just look at outside of the restaurant. We got meals for 2 people. I wish the mango salad they could cut it smaller. And this is weird version of mango salad I ever eat in my life.pad Thai is good. Spring roll and wonton a bit greasy but tasty. But my curry is shame. Sticky coconut rice was too wet already and on top of it is all salty curry.it very salty I can't even take 3rd spoon. Let the girl know already hope it just one time mistake from the kitchen. This is ridiculous. First time I have to update my review just because of the responses. I don't ask because when I come to restaurants, to try what is original from the restaurant and I give feedback as my opinion of myself. How I know it big or med or tiny to ask to cut it smaller or thicker. And u said it not enough for me to take it home? If u say that dish it not enough. It mean u serve me something smaller than usual. Because I don't have to lie about the salty dish (which as I already said it may be a mistake from the kitchen) missing only 3 spoons. 1 from me and 2 from my bf. He tried for 2nd time but give up with saltiness. And we don't even want to send it back to the kitchen never. It's is just an experience. We order and willing to pay what we called. And that time no one comes to ask is everything ok like they always or ask do I need a box or something because we leave a table and pay in the front so how someone can see and think it ok to leave like that????? . I understand working in a restaurant is very stressful and being busy in the kitchen may have a lot of mistakes. but make it fun of my word and say something it not true that I don't agree with. I give a review as my opinion to improve to better with all kind of customers. If u don't want to take my opinion or we as customers. It totally fine also.

christina vangalen

I absolutely live this restaurants pad thai and spring rolls. The all day 'express pad thai' is a great value!

Courtney M

Food was good but it was a very long wait (45 minutes) to get our food. Makes it hard to go there over a work lunch.

Robert Legault

Great food at good prices.

Eric Wick

Building is older but has character with lots of lovely cultural objects to view. Limited options for wine but at five dollars a glass you can't go wrong. We had the coconut rice and spring rolls to start. The rice had a delightful taste but was not a big fan of the texture was more like a pudding than a rice. The spring rolls where gone in seconds once tasted. For the mains; Pad Thai as well as the Pho Noodle with chicken. Little disappointed in the Pad Thai, think the chef was very busy and allowed the noodle and sauce to burn which over powered the flavor and took away from the taste of the dish. On the other hand the soup was terrific tasting. Our server was very good and tried to help correct any issues we had right away. Overall it was a very nice restaurant, for a change in cultural foods.

David Ferguson

Best Thai food in St. Thomas

Great Thai food in st Thomas. Service is always good. Pad Thai combo always satisfies!

Withajay

Amazing food and service! I eat here almost every time I want to go out and it's always such a treat. The decor is wonderful and the food is even better than that! And such lovely people!

Zack Zager

Excellent food, and friendly staff. Love their all day special and wonton soup

Soylent Rhys

Food here is awesome, decently portioned as well. Haven't had a bad experience here before. The only thing that might be an issue for some might be parking.

Micheal Nadar

Quite and Calm with delicious food

speed Demon

Amazing food.....Period!!!!!!!

msbrowneyedgurl1969

Love this place. Food is always great

Michael Clark

Was in town for business, stopped in for a late lunch. The owner was incredibly kind and generous, giving us menu recommendations. Food was delicious, the home made garlic hot sauce was incredible and as hit as advertised. Recommend getting the noodles, and one of the best spring rolls I've had. Worth the check in.

Gabi Knight

We go here at least twice a month to dine in or take out. We absolutely love the food, and the service is always wonderful! Thank you so much Cynthia, and team!!

John Templeman

Careful, it's spicy!

Dawne Hindley

I always get my favorite, the golden curry all day special. So yummy and just enough spice.

Dean Gocan

Our favorite in St.Thomas

Anthony Halpin

Most important part first: they don't know what gluten is, at all, and they lie that they do. The food is ok, it could have been a two or three star place, except for one thing: the staff doesn't care at all. Gluten free has been a popular diet lately, but for some people, ie those with celiac disease, it's a serious matter. This restaurant takes the approach of "if the main ingredient is gluten free, the dish is gluten free". The sauces are glutinous, and the staff often don't know. The menu has gluten free items highlighted, but on detailed questioning, you'll find they use glutinous soy sauce in it, etc. In the end, if a restaurant is not gluten safe, that's fine. It's perfectly acceptable to not be able to, or be willing to accommodate everyone. All I ask is that you don't lie about it.

Rob Newton Cline

Great service with a smile.????

Andrew Kent

This place has amazing pad Thai !

Matthew R

We ordered pad Thai for takeout. Serving size was very good, and the flavours were good as well.

Bradley Clift

Went in for dinner we were the only ones in the restaurant and it took two hours! We decided to leave due to still not getting any food! on the way out we told the waitress we had an meeting at 8pm (we had got there at 6pm) She told us that we were stupid for making plans that close together!

James Kidd

My noodle dish was the epitome of bland, complete with overcooked noodles. The server has a certain charm in her harshness and general grumpiness, but it can be off putting to some.

Kay Kains

Very rude staff and the food is mediocre at best There are much better options in St Thomas

Steve Rochefort Veillette

Slow, very slow service. Just seemed like she had too much to do but you can tell she was trying, she waa nice and polite. Food was okay, not great. Wife had the pad thai with shrimp rolls and now has severe tummy ache. I thought the beef smelled funny but taste was okay. Fingers crossed I'm doing okay. Will not return.

Doug Carter

Egg rolls are great! Had chicken pad Thai and quite large tasty portion. Misses had curried chicken which is spicy, although she was warned.

Cyndaquil_Is_Best

Loved the food! I had the fried rice with chicken, garlic chili hot sauce, and the oolong tea. The rice was amazing and even though I hate eggs I LOVED theirs!!! The food was amazing and the service was incredible! The garlic chili hot sauce was surprisingly spicy, and was very thick and had many chili seeds, I also loved the flavour combined with the rice. The oolong tea was delicious and I drank the whole pot, it was strong which I liked even more! (cute tea pot by the way) then as I left I had to get a jar of the hot sauce as it was delicious! (Could be my new favourite sauce!) then he gave me some Mango Pineapple Habanero sauce for free! The sauce was delicious and it had a nice burn just from covering my fingertip! It has an amazing flavour that had an amazing taste and a good scent! The place was also amazingly decorated and had a very nice feel! I would highly recommend going here, 100% worth it!!

Kathryn St John

This is one of the best restaurants in St Thomas. Not only are the kitchen staff and owner lovely, but the drivers are fantastic. I just received my meal and had to call and thank them for how wonderful it was. Growing up in Toronto I had high expectations and they have exceeded them over and over again. I urge you to try their wonton soup, and Thai cashew chicken stir fry. Absolutely fantastic. It arrived HOT and quick like always. My go to restaurant, any day of the week. Thank you for being so fantastic.

Kim Davis

The food was ok, not fabulous. The atmosphere is quaint. However they could seriously use new wait staff. There were 3 of us that ate here and all 3 of us said we wouldn't return because of the waitress. She's not very friendly, gets annoyed if you ask too many questions, dresses like a truck driver which is not a good representation of the business. It was a struggle to get salt and pepper, knives, no ice for the drinks. We got to the point where we were afraid to say anything about anything. Just eat, shut up and get out was how we were all feeling.

Melanie D'Astous

DELICIOUS and amazing service! Their menu is small, but there is nice variety for everyone. Their prices are fair and their portion sizes are perfect! My family and I love their fresh rolls, spring rolls and shrimp rolls, they are seriously the best! We like to order the thai cashew nut stir fry (mild spice), sweet and sour stir fry (mild spice), the drunken noodles (medium spice) and the sweet soya basil noodles (mild spice). Their pad thai is too sweet for our taste buds but that's a personal preference.

Tracie Boudreau

My husband likes their pad Thai ...

Julie Rains

I was craving pad thai the other day while on the job in St. Thomas. Not being a local I had no idea where to go. A local sent me in that direction and when the other pad thai place was closed late afternoon I kept driving until I hit Lotus Thai. I waited 10 minutes for my take-out. It was the best pad thai I have ever had. Ever. I would drive from London again just for the take-out it was so good. It looked good, and tasted good. Though I was full about halfway through I kept on because it was impossible not to!

A Person

Delicious spring rolls - best I've ever had. Serving sizes could be a TOUCH bigger but beyond that amazing resto.

K C

I had the All Day special, with shrimp Pad Thai. The spring rolls and dipping sauce I give 5 stars, the deep fried pork wonton also get 5 stars. The pad thai only gets a 3 star rating. Although the pad thai was good, it just wasn't great. The flavour for me wasn't strong enough, and the portion could have been bigger. I did like that the shrimp had the tails removed. I would still order from here again.

T AK

WOW!!!! So happy we found this St. Thomas gem. We just moved here from the GTA where there are multiple options for Thai food, but I have to say none of them come close to how delicious the food is from Lotus Thai. We have dined in but mostly get take out and the service as well as the food have been amazing. We opt for the Pad Thai and get the spring rolls and shrimp rolls, and it is always hot and delicious. The delivery drivers are also very friendly ????

Jim Hubert

Food was excellent

Kris Keillor

EXCELLENT FOOD & GOOD PRICES!!!!!! ONLY REASON IT DIDN'T GET A 5☆ RATING IS THAT NOBODY IS PERFECT.

Shawn Chilcott

Best Thai food in st Thomas

Steven Hill

Food was good but service was slow

Jade A

Portions are large, fairly priced and the food is always fresh! The man working was very friendly. I've tried the wonton soup, Pho and Pad Thai so far and it's all amaaazing!

Kim Spearman

We had take out this evening, Pad Thai, a Curry dish, and Mango Sticky Rice. It was fabulous! Generous portion sizes, and the sides that came with this, Spring Rolls & Crispy wonton, were the best I've had in a very long time. We hadn't eaten here for a while, and I"m so glad we did tonight, it's going to be our new 'Go To'.

Michelle Speirs

Just had our dinner delivered we received the wrong order. When I called to let them know was not impressed on how this was dealt with . They would not correct this mistake they only offered for me to come pick up free appetizers . I had my dinner delivered for a reason. Sorry food is good but when they deliver u the wrong meal that I paid $70 for & not correct there mistake loss my business

Kathy Livingstone

My favourite restaurant!!!! Love their food and we are always treated like family when we go! Looking forward to the second location opening up in Mount Brydges!!!!

Carlie

Amazing! Service is great, food is fantastic! My go to place for take out!

Carol Griffin

I have gone here many times and always love it. Food is always excellent and service is pleasant although sometimes juggling a lot of patrons.

Lorna Larocque

The atmosphere was amazing. Our hostess was over the top. My cashew nut meal with peanut sauce was delicious. I definitely will be back.

Galyna Trachuk

The rice with shrimps and vegetables was good! And spring rolls were delicious!

Carl Ouellette

Never ate there. But ive heard bothing but good things!

Raymond Thiessen

I ordered the pad Thai. I was impressed by the portion size, and it tasted good too. Friendly service, and I liked the grandness of the house the restaurant is in

Steve & Diana Chiappetta

My wife and I loved this place, wish they had one in Toronto. The pad thai and the spring rolls we amazing. So fresh and delicious

Michael Carnagie

Food was excellent

Marianna McCue

Beware of the "Combos". The lunch express pad thai serving for $8.95 is the SAME size as the full dinner combo (half a small container) for $14.95. I've ordered BOTH and got the exact same size serving (with 2 small deep fried shrimps extra only). I called to let them know after I picked up my order, and they said there was nothing they could/would do since I already picked up the food (ummm was i supposed to check the food before I walked away with it?!) and that it was probably the correct serving size (which would be INSANE. The serving size was the size of my palm, not even enough to feed a small woman who doesn't eat a ton). For the price, I expected a FULL dinner serving of pad thai, especially considering the pad thai is only $12.95 on its own. What kind of special combo is that to get HALF the serving with spring rolls? Not a deal at all, then. I've eaten here a few times and the food is pretty good, but this experience has turned me right OFF. They could have just admitted they clearly made a mistake, and it wouldn't have been a big deal to me, but NOPE.

Sheri Mitchell

Great food. Freash

Katie Cottrell

Food is great however it is fresh made so there is a wait for it.

Jim Teetzel

Very pleasant management and nice staff. Food is excellent with good variety. 8 STARS for the meals I've enjoyed.

June Mcgarry

Delicious. Great staff.

Yvonne Taylor

Love this place! Tried the drunk noodle dish last night and my husband had the Cashew chicken. Delicious meals! The crispy wontons were a treat as well.! And to top it off.. great service on the phone! Friendly and patient. Looking forward to the next meal!

John Feher

Best ever

Curtis Schuppli

Great food one of the best places to eat

Kate P.

Best Thai food in SW Ontario. Pho is such a large serving and so delicious. Their Pad Thai and spring rolls are great, and fresh rolls too. My favourite is the Curry Radnar. Perfect amount of heat. Takeout is always hot, fresh and ready for pickup very quickly.

A dee

The waitress is absolutely disrespectful, no one go there. Worst customer service I have ever received.

Mable Lean

Always delicious. Good portion sizes. Friendly staff

Kelsey Anseeuw

First time having their food tonight and I must say everything we ordered was amazing !!!! I honestly would order again and give them my business over any other place !!! Thanks again

Shannon Wilkinson

The food here is fantastic. Always fresh and flavorful. There must be something highly addictive in the Spring Roll sauce, because I can't get enough

Kathleen Carpenter

I am a fan favourite of Lotus Tai. They always deliver my food with a smile. Today I order my regular meal like I also do. I don't switch it up, because I love the Sweet Soya Basil it's my go too if I'm having a rough time it always cheer me up. Though as I received my food I had the most caring, kindest, sweetest delivery man I EVER had! He left me speechless and warm my heart with how he greeted me. Thank you to my delivery person, you honestly turn my October completely around and left me on such a good vibe. Thank you ???? I needed that your sweet gesture ???? As always my food tasted as amazing as it is.

Kool Cat

Love there food, best in town.

Drew Malcolm

Awesome food and service. Everything's fresh and flavorful.

Gail Malcolm

Great food, good service, a family favourite place!

Emily Phillips

Love the food but kind of frustrating when it says open on mondays online but when you call to order the voicemail says closed on mondays..kind of inconvenient and should be adjusted.

Miranda Scott

The food is good, but the staff were rude when asked when our takeout order was going to be ready, which was already 20min later than what we were told.

Scott

This is the first time we have had Lotus Thai. Ordered 3 meals and an appetizer. Very impressed , food was hot, fresh and very tasty. Will be going back

Yves Menon

Great experience. All 4 orders we had were brilliant, and the restaurant has a nice cozy environment.

Zvonimir Saric

Unique place with excellent food

S P

It was a lovely meal with delicious tasting Pad Thai. Also ordered fresh rolls, which unfortunately was a little bland. Prices were affordable. Staff were able to make the offer gluten free which was appreciated. #localguides #gf #glutenfree

Amber Stewart

Sooo good. Pork wontons wow!!

Kaleb Quangvan

Thai tasty.

Dave H

Pad Thai was good, soups are very good, the curry had little chicken which was over cooked and hardly had any sauce, spring rolls and wonts were excellent

Jamie Soulliere

Amazing quality. Highly recommended.

Jeorge Withajay

LOVE this place! Great people, great service and great food! We'll be back!

Brandon McDade

As I arrived the mood was set. A traditional yet expectional experience. As I walked in I could smell the spicy pad thai being made. Was greeted by an older gentleman very friendly. Waited 5 minutes or less for real thai food with authentic and voracious flavors. Oh and BTW paid less than 20 for food that could feed 3 easily ????

kyle lescadres

Best pad thai around. Best spring rolls around. Best crispy wontons around. Can't go longer than a month without this place. You can also buy their pad thai sauce which is better than any other pad thai sauce you could find at the store. Always a treat.

Bill Davie

Taste

Kathy Aldred

Best Thai food around town

Christine Torres

Very friendly owners. Excellent food and a beautiful building.

Peter K

Great food - we have eaten in and taken out. Never disappointed.

Lydia LaBarbera

The coconut rice was really good and so was the mango salad and ginger chicken that I was able to share with my sisters and mom; but once I got to the vegetable pad thai, all it entailed was just overcooked noodles and burnt cashew pieces; no vegetables. It was pretty expensive for the overall average/bland tasting meal.

Cynthia Taylor-Luce

I thought this place had kind of unexciting food on several visits over the years when I have occasionally been to St Thomas but I had a very zingy curry yesterday and my fellow diners had tasty stuff too.

Peter Papantonis

We love the location in Mt. Brydges... but my reason to post today is to please update your hours online.... it says you are open on Mondays but unfortunately you are closed based on your answering machine. :(

Lisa Lacey

Amazing food and service! Definitely a place where I know everyone in our family will be happy with the food(and when you have a lot of kids, it is difficult to find a place where everyone likes the food)

Wim Schweer

I was very disappointed after visiting twice yearly for 10 years in Thaïland to be greeted by a "White Thai" lady. The reception was definitely not Thai friendly, very restricted in their offerings. Pricewise the foof was médiocre and over priced. Will not return to sample more.

Angela Munroe

Always a delicious meal! Consistently scrumptious!

Michelle Christmann

Delicious food and friendly service!

Dinko Cvitanovic

Nice

Catherine Doyle

Fast service, good food, very accommodating, reasonable prices.

Adam W

Food was amazing! Great prices too! Would definitely come back!

Stephen Phillips

This place is horrible for service. Have to wait extra long for mediocre food

Janette Hathaway

Best food in town! I could live off their pho soup, pad thai, and cashew rice!

Rhonda Travis

Tried this restaurant for the first time for my husbands birthday last week, we were absolutely delighted with the food, so fresh, flavorful - so we had it again tonight. Our new favorite - staff very friendly - would definitely recommend

Michelle Rickard

Always consistent, a great place to go for lunch

Joanna DeBackere

Great food!

Nafila

I ordered the mango/coconut glutinous rice. What I got was a super overcooked, mushy rice (almost like rice soup) with thin strips of unripened mango twirled around in there. I've had mango rice hundreds of times everywhere else, never have I ever encoutered this. I'm native to Thailand so I can say this is not mango rice, Highly disappointed. To reply to your reply: NO REFUND WAS OFFERED by you whatsoever. You were pure rudeness over the phone. Please don't make up stories to make yourself look better. And there is not a "myriad of ways" only ONE type of this traditional Thai mango dish -- any other way (with soupy rice and unripened mango, for instance) is "innovative" and that I stand by. So no thank you for your gracious discounted offer -- that's a joke. I won't be returning ever and won't be recommending this place to anyone.

Morgaine Halpin

Service is slow and somewhat offhand. They have items marked gluten free on the menu, but you have to make sure to mention for them to make it gluten free, as some of the items are not naturally so. The location is small and cute.

Alexander Vsetula

Amazing place for authentic Thai food. Fresh ingredients and homestyle service. The Pad Thai and Spring Rolls are great to try for first timers, and the Golden Curry is a highly rewarding dish for those with a more adventurous palate. My compliments to the chef and all those who work hard to create such a fulfilling dining experience.
