Met a friend for lunch based on his recommendation and I really liked the place. Great menu choices, super service and the place had a nice ambiance. We shared three dishes and the food was delicious. Don't usually drive out to Sudbury for lunch, but it was well worth the ride. read more

First few visits back after they reopened after fire damage were good. All weeknight dinner visits. -- Har Gow: Shrimp dumplings fresh and flavorful, but the vessels were so gummy they stuck to each other and the serving tin. Average. -- Beef Teriyaki: A four-stick serving had bumpy, lightly-charred and lightly sweet surfaces, along with good tenderness underneath. Decent marinade flavor. Above average to well above average. -- Mongolian Beef: An outstanding presentation of beef slivers thick enough to be tender, while also getting nicely crisp and a vigorous flavor superior to the teriyaki. Scallions added some extra kick in addition to the sauce. Really good feel and really good taste bring it really close to elite. -- Pork Fried Rice: Lovers of dark pork fried rice are in for a treat, because this is among the darkest and has dark flavor to match. Fresh, hot, not a reheat, and not sitting for hours. I could do without the peas, but all of the other additions-- egg, onion, bean sprouts, and big chunks of fresh pork-- were top notch. A benchmark rice if you're into this style. Elite. -- Chicken with Ginger and Scallion: Long and winding chicken with good tenderness and noticeable ginger flavor, with bold scallions the unsung hero. Closer to a very good dish than a great dish, but bonus points for being neither sweet nor spicy, but still bringing plenty of flavor. -- Chicken Fried Rice: Another example of bold, dark, fresh-cooked rice, this time with chicken. I was expecting shreds and got finger-length pieces that were much more impressive. Elite. -- Boneless Ribs: Lightly lacquered with shiny cross sections, so they were moist, but a bit fatty. Above average for sure, but not elite or close like some other dishes. -- Chicken Fingers: Fresh, hot, and crisp, with some small ones less dazzling, but most pleased. Good meat-to-batter ratio. Optional sweet and sour sauce add-on did dazzle, coming in sweet but dark ruby color and complex. Not your daddy's sauce; this didn't have pineapples and cherries but it did have more flavor. -- Chicken Teriyaki: Charring, coating, tenderness, juiciness, and marinade all combined to make this one of the better renditions. Well above average to near elite. -- Yuen Yang Beef: Very impressive dish, from the quantity, to the textures (perfect on both the beef and the bed of string beans), to the flavors (savory-tingly on the beef, though without much heat, and gingery on the string beans). -- Duck Sauce: Barely a variation from straight apple sauce. Not a strength. Only negative on service is that sometimes one server handles the entire dining room, so there might be waits, but even still, service is always friendly and efficient. This place sometimes gets a bad rap for being expensive, but I believe the quality warrants the prices and that there's good value thanks to execution and consistency. read more

This place was one of my favorite restaurants for many years. Flavorful, fresh food. Not sure why the last few times I've ordered from there, everything tastes fishy. They are either using way too much fish sauce in everything or cooking things in oil used for seafood. As someone who really dislikes seafood, this makes entire orders of, for example, chicken with cashews, inedible for me. Boneless spareribs are a little too tough, used to be fantastic. Dishes just don't seem as fresh and bright. Still good service and I'm hoping they come around again. The restaurant itself is still very nice to go to. read more

Outstanding food, particularly the beef teriyaki and Mongolian beef. They do a better job with beef than chicken which I find interesting.

We have been going to Lotus blossom for years now. They had their ups and downs, happy to report the food is now Stella again. We usually get a mix of the Chinese as well as Japanese selections and everything tasted great this last time we visited. They can get really busy so service sometime seems a bit more hectic and have misses, but they are friendly and always quick to correct any mistakes. read more

Last few orders have been very inconsistent. Salmon sashimi is no longer great. And last general gau's chicken randomly included a lemon rind (I think) and a piece of ripped cardboard/paper from a rice container (which is weird since the chicken takeout comes in a plastic container). Paying $150 for that kind of quality is just not something I will do again. Doing three stars as we had plenty of great experiences as well. But recent orders have me looking for sushi elsewhere. read more

My favorite for many, many years - more than I care to admit excellent food, fresh, flavorful, delicious. Best house fried rice, most delicious crab rangoons and shao mai. Mongolian beef is superb, great Crispy Sesame Beef, outstanding Roast Duck. Always a good gathering place for friends and family. Good service most of the time, always friendly and welcoming. Sometimes, when they are too swamped it can be a bit spotty but it's still worth it. read more

Ordered steamed vegetables with tofu for dinner that is listed under vegetarian options. When I came home, my body was covered in hives and itching. I started eating the leftovers for lunch the next day only to find out that there is chicken in this meal! This is very dangerous for people with allergies, but also frustrating and upsetting for vegetarians and vegans like myself. Also with the fact that the costs of the dishes are on the high end! I lost all my trust in this place, which is unfortunate because the staff is very friendly. read more

Quality has gone so down hill. This place used to have the best, most fresh food. Not sure why but it seems like the crab Rangoon receive changed.. too sweet. Very disappointing. read more

Just not the same after reopening. Food seems pre made and heated up, not very fresh tasting. I did not feel well after eating spending $80 on 4 apps and rice plus lo mein. It's too bad because this was out go to place. read more

Friendly service. Great menu and food was very nice. Will definitely be going back again!

We stopped into Lotus Blossom last night and had a wonderful evening. Food was excellent (sweet & sour soup, egg drop soup, peking raviolis, and spicy singapore noodles. Our waiter was very attentive and kept checking in to see if we needed anything else. As we finished courses, he kindly packaged the leftovers for us to take home. The restaurant is beautifully decorated and has a very comfortable ambiance for dining. The walls and ceilings have beautiful asian carve woodwork, wonderful paintings, great lights, and they had decorated for the upcoming Chinese Lunar New Year. Food was also very reasonably price and today's leftovers tasted even better. We are so lucky to have this Chinese restaurant in Sudbury! read more

We just moved close to The Lotus Blossom and when an evening called for Chinese food, decided we'd go there. The place is always busy and has a nice building. It appears to have been a Sudbury staple for many years. Unfortunately, this may have led to complacency because this food was incredibly overpriced and of mediocre quality. read more

Food was fresh - that's the #1 thing you can ask for with sushi. Portion size on the avocado salad was on the smaller side. They didn't add cream cheese to one of the rolls, though it was requested. I think they just forgot to look at the special instructions. They also forgot chopsticks, but remember fortune cookies. Would order again to give them another try. read more

Lotus Blossom - Avocado Salad; Spicy Lobster Maki; California Maki - Chinese Near Me - Sudbury, Massachusetts

We have ordered from this place for a few years now. Sadly this place has cut back on quality and raised prices. Our Lo Mein was watery and the spare ribs were dry with barley any sauce. I am sad to say that this will be our last time ordering. The wings did not even have a crispy breading. It was more "grilled". Shame shame. Watery dipping sauce was annoying as well. Why are we paying so much for such sad flavors? I will be making it at home. Save yourself the money and go somewhere else or better yet, learn how to make it at home. read more

This is the closest to South Shore Chinese food I've found around this area. If you know what that means, check out Lotus Blossom. Their sushi was okay, wasn't in love with their version of a spicy tuna roll but that was my only negative takeaway. From the kitchen, we got General Gau's chicken, the sauce was so flavorful. My favorite dish was the chicken fried rice. I can't stop thinking about it, it was that good. We were a bit taken back by the price at first. But once we ate- the price is a reflection of the quality and taste. read more

Some places survived the pandemic better than others. This one failed miserably. To order to go, you need to stand in front of a big board and order from a menu with 8-point fonts. Totally insensitive to older adults, and they won't let you hold an actual menu. In the past, I could forgive the high prices for mediocre food, but no more. read more

Nice cozy restaurant with a casual atmosphere. Busy on weekends because it's very popular with locals. Pricey, but there are plenty entrées that be to your liking. Small full bar. Tvs and NO keno, thank goodness. Very disappointing General Gau chicken dish. The nuggets were filled with a kind of batter, extremely gooey ,over sweet and missing chicken. Not ordering that again. Bartenders were friendly and served a great drink. Recommendation would be to definitely try the place. read more

Still come for the dumplings. Still come for the fried rice. Still come for the duck. Still come for the Fish. And found out that as expensive as it is, the Sunday buffet comes with plenty of freshly-made sushi. I agree the restaurant could use an overhaul and clean up. Maybe some remodeling. Food is good and I can only hope that the kitchen is clean... read more

Do not do online ordering. I just ordered and made a mistake. I called the restaurant. They said that there was nothing they could do and to call Chownow. I called Chownow and they said to call the restaurant. I had to contest the charge through my Mastercard. I told the restaurant that they were losing a 20 year customer. They said "sorry." read more

Food was good. It was clean. Waitstaff was pleasant and attentive. The chicken chow foon needed bean sprouts and onions. It was the only thing that wasn't excellent read more

I've had authentic Chinese food, both in China and in many of America's chinatowns. This is not that. However, if you are in the mood for "American-Style Chinese Food" like beef and broccoli or general tso's (they call it general gau's) chicken, this is probably the best you will find anywhere in the world. I highly recommend the chicken with garlic sauce, royal family, and pork with ginger and scallion! Also the steamed vegetable dumplings and boneless spareribs are great as starters. read more

So I was eating fried rice, chicken with teriyaki skewer the teriyaki was fine, but when I take out for the fried chicken rice, add a piece of metal which that almost scratched all over my gums of my mouth and if they swallowed that metal this is why your stomach hurts. Hopefully I don't get an infection. read more

Lotus Blossom - The chicken fried rice, the metal thing - Chinese Near Me - Sudbury, Massachusetts

Since the pandemic, we have ordered takeout thrice for standard items: general gaus, Peking duck, crab rangoon, Peking ravioli, Yuen yang beef, and chicken with cashews. Wow, prices have become outrageous while quality has deteriorated! What happened? We will no longer be frequenting this previous neighborhood gem. read more

A mere shadow of years past when Lotus Blossom was truly gourmet Chinese cuisine. Sadly no longer. Lacking in all aspects from service to presentation to food quality. read more

As far as Chinese food goes in Sudbury, Lotus Blossom is the place to go. It is on the "fancy" side, so the prices are not cheap for Chinese. But bear in mind that it's in Sudbury where 1) the folks can afford it 2) the rent can't be cheap 3) people demand "fancy" - just look at the Dunkin' Donuts. The same family owns Lotus Flower in Framingham, where I've been dining since I was a child. Lotus Flower is a bit more casual and the prices are a bit lower and the portions a bit larger than Lotus Blossom, so we prefer to go there. However when we don't want to make the drive from Sudbury to Framingham, Lotus Blossom does the trick (at a slight premium for the convenience). While it might not be the most authentic Chinese food on the planet, it tastes really good and my (Chinese) family really enjoys it. We've never gotten the buffet - those are the dishes that are the least traditional and cater the most to a crowd - and I probably wouldn't recommend it if you want to get the best stuff that they have here. Our go to's are the moo shi chicken (the best around), the Shanghai pan fried noodles (not healthy but delicious and totally worth it), and the Hunan crispy shrimp (expensive but worth it). We also like the sea bass, general gau's chicken, peking ravioli, snow pea shoots, and chicken with cashews. I also like the chocolate fortune cookies that you get at the end of the meal (a nice twist). read more

Ambiance is pleasant and subtly asian, a bit noisy by the bar but not unbearable. Service is excellent ..helpful pleasant and accommodating. The food was very well prepared..a step above any of the asian restaurants we've gone to in the area. read more

Our family has been a customer for over 23 years. Up until a year ago, it was top notch consistent quality and fair pricing. Not anymore, the last few times we ordered we could not believe the quality. Food ingredients have changed and it tastes like food court chinese food. The prices have also skyrocketed which is difficult to rationalize based on food quality! I am not sure what has changed either the chefs or management but Lotus Blossom is sadly no longer on our take out rotation. A chicken entree, beef entree and an appetizer is now over $50 and does not even include rice! One last comment is the curt, unfriendly woman who has manned the front desk for years. She has no concept of customer service. read more

I seldom leave negative reviews unless I had an awful experience at a particular establishment. Well, this was one of those times. We travelled to Sudbury, MA in December 2023 to visit family for the holidays and decided to give this place a try. We made a reservation and the five of us were promptly seated. However, we were given two menus to share (interesting) and when we asked for more menus, the staff handed us one menu while grumbling under his breath. 30 minutes had gone by and no one came by to even give us water. We finally flagged someone to ask to order beverages. She listened to our drink order but did not write anything down. Additional 15 minutes went by and still no drink (not even water). We asked her again when she walked by our table and she asked us to repeat our order and this time, she actually wrote it down. We were pretty annoyed by this point so we told her that we would just leave. She finally said that they were short staffed that day but was unapologetic. This behavior is the opposite of good customer service. Had they been transparent from the beginning and told us that they were short staffed and that the wait would be long when we were seated, at least we could have made a decision to either stay and wait or go elsewhere. Instead we wasted 45 minutes just waiting for nothing but lackluster customer service. Perhaps this was truly an off day for them but needless to say we will not be returning again. read more

The food was meh but the Lychee Martini bumped it up to 4 stars. The soft shell crab was ok. The pork moo shu was ok. I'd go back to give it another whirl and maybe try the lunch buffet. The service was good for the big party we had. I think they were trying to keep all the dishes together and bring them out at once. Although the food was quick I wish it was a bit warmer in temp. read more

Catered to my need for a pescatarian diet. Delicious food. Uber eats order took a while to deliver but I'm sure the restaurant was busy on a Sat night! Loved the sweet potato tempura maki and customized fried rice! Yummy! read more

Let me start off by saying, I've been a customer here for many years and of late have seen the food quality go down and the prices go up. Portions have also gotten smaller as quality has declined. But, in all my years I have never received food that is spoiled when ordering take-out. From the moment I opened the rice container, I smelled the fetid sour smell of food that has gone bad. I thought, perhaps I'm just being sensitive and took a bite, bad idea to take a bite from food that smells that bad. But, yes my taste buds agreed with my olfactories opinion that something was amiss. I'm not sure what went wrong but it did and the fried rice was spoiled. The General Gao chicken also had a "funny" taste and one piece had a very "funky" taste. The Lo Mein was just tasteless. The restaurant credited the dishes I returned and offered a gift certificate to be used at a later date. So, really disappointed in this experience and would not be returning any time soon. I was told no one else complained about the rice although they had many many orders. Makes me think, how many people got stinky spoiled rice and hopefully no one gets ill. read more

Extremely expensive for Chinese food. Quality is good but $80 for take out for four is high

The food was ok I guess however EVERYTHING was plastic. Plastic cups, plastic utensils, plastic plates. They even went as far as little water cups you use for brushing ur teeth for cups for tea. I asked the waiter and she immediately switch the topic(she could have misunderstood) this was very disappointing considering I have gone many time and this has NEVER happened before. Never been to a restaurant that used ONLY plastic. read more

My party of four had dinner here last night. The ambience was nice and it was moderately busy. We sat in the bar room area. We started with cocktails; Mandarin martini and Leeches martini were very good. Appetizers consisted of scallion pancakes, boneless ribs and beef/asparagus roll ups. The pancakes were delicious, ribs were a bit fatty and tough and the roll ups were ok. For dinner, we had spicy pork, ginger and scallions, crispy shrimp, and veggie chow goon noodles. All were very good. Food priced were in par for food quality and restaurant setting, but drink prices seemed a bit steep (martinis are $11.5) read more
