I've been Maison lovers for dinner as well as experience their speakeasy downstairs the decor and the concept is very cool. The menu itself is very eclectic a little bit of Vietnamese a little bit of Chinese a little bit of Thai a little bit of fusion not your typical neighborhood family Asian restaurant. I would say the flavors are very refined. You can tell the presentation and the ingredients are very high-end other bougie Asian restaurants on the main line tried to do the same, but I feel that the chef here actually has technique. It was my husband's and my anniversary so we thought we'd try this place out for brunch are used to love the brunch at Azzie Villanova. No sushi here but really good choices today with a little bit of non-Asian breakfast choices. We had 11 o'clock reservations, which I would like to do early so we can get the food when it's fresh and coming out selections were sesame chicken my favorite today - stirfry chicken with a little bit of maybe potato starch and a citrus hint very light not greasy and slightly sweetened nice sesame seeds. The shrimp green curry. It was perfect eating that with a vegetable fried rice and veg rice pad see ew de noodles. Cooked perfectly and tasted fresh.. there was a baked salmon, brussels sprouts. A brioche bread casserole was that French toast or brioche bread French toast casserole with a vanilla pudding and scrambled eggs omelette. Fried chicken wings Asian style, which is super crispy vegetable spring roll and french fries. Bbq Pork steamed bun, crystal dumplings, and chicken potstickers. Oh I forgot there was a hash made of Tomatoes, potatoes, and shredded beef look delicious but too full couldn't eat everything and topping it off with a wonton soup with Hong Kong style shrimp, pork dumplings. Fresh pineapple, fresh watermelon and a strawberry blueberry salad. A variety of little cupcakes and tarts was delicious. Was a black sesame shortbread that definitely looked homemade and had a very nice nutty. Mild flavor very unique went well with my coffee after lunch. Service was excellent cleaning off our plates whenever we were finished complementary mimosa- wow very delightful! I give this buffet five stars. I . read more

I went there with a few friends on a Saturday night and surprisingly the place was fairly empty. We were seated upstairs in one of the private rooms which was nice and cozy & intimate. The food was very good; however, the service was a bit on the slow side. I hate to in-a-sense penalize a restaurant because of poor or slow service could easily have been just our server. Had we had a different server, perhaps the service would have been different. Everything on the menu was on the more expensive side, but Maison Lotus is located in the Main Line, so prices will be on the higher side, because the general clientele can afford it. Overall, we had a good experience, good food, & ambience. read more

My coworkers and I came here for happy hour last night. First off the restaurant interior is so so beautiful! I love the green wallpaper with golden accents. It gives a tropical/jungle vibe. We all sat at the very nice curved bar and ordered a bunch of drinks and different food items on happy and off the happy hour. I got the lychee martini ($8) which was pretty and good! A bit more of a floral taste from the rose then actual lychee. I also got the $7 sparkling wine which was also good. The happy hour menu is small but has some good items. The salmon crudo and Korean fried chicken bao buns were a hit with our crowd. My coworkers also enjoyed the mussels, mushroom bisque, drunken noodles and seafood curry fried rice. I got a the waygu pho which had a nice broth (even though it was lukewarm) and a decent amount of meat. Pretty good pho but not sure if it was worth the price tag. Overall it was a good time until we had to settle our bill. Some coworkers left and paid their portion but at the end the bartender decided to put the rest on one tab which made paying super confusing. I think next time we will be upfront and set up separate tabs. I would love to come back and try their AYCE dim sum Sunday in the future! read more

I came here for the pho soup and was pleasantly surprised by the delicious food and warm, friendly service. The décor reminded me of an upscale restaurant in Paris, as well as its sister restaurant, Teikoku. Be sure to save room for dessert--sooo good! read more

Came here for a Friday happy hour and had a nice time. The bartender was awesome, very friendly and personable. It was quiet on a Friday at 4pm so we had the bar almost to ourselves. For happy hour we got the tuna crudo (not a crudo, more like sashimi) and that was tiny for the price but I'm glad I didn't pay full. The crispy chicken bao buns were to die for and I would've ordered more if my fiance were hungrier. The brussel sprouts were actually just ok. I'm finding fewer fried sprouts out in the wild that do it for me anymore. A sticking point for me was they put raw nuts in it. Which not only aren't the best texture, as they get stuck in your teeth, but not a very nice flavor either. But all told we had a time here and the lychee martini with rose was fancy and delicious. read more

Overall, a pleasant dining experience at Maison Lotus (sister-restaurant to Blue Elephant). The interior of the restaurant is much larger than it looks from the outside--we were seated in a quiet area upstairs, which filled up as the evening progressed. Service was solid. We started with: - Pillow Bread (3 pieces of fried dough, pandan spread, sweet miso butter), which I thought was delicious with either spread or butter; - Crispy Duck (4 bao buns, cucumbers, tamarind hoisin), which had extra-crispy duck, though the tamarind addition to the hoisin slightly dampened the flavor profile; - BBQ Pork Buns (3 steamed pork buns, milk bread), which were great when you got bits of pork, but were generally light on filling. On the recommendation of a diner who had been before, I went with the Drunken Noodles (wide rice noodles, eggs, bell peppers, spicy thai chili basil) + Lump Crab, which was plentiful, but I think I'd have preferred a less overpowering, more traditional protein. I asked for it extra spicy, but it was only slightly spicy. read more

We came here for lunch on a Monday afternoon. Ambiance on the inside is very beautifully decorated. We ordered the Maison 175, Indochine Bloom, wagyu pho, signature banh mi, and pistachio opera for dessert. Our server was super nice and gave great recommendations. I think the manager stopped by as well to check on us. Overall service was excellent. Drinks were fruity and strong. Wagyu pho was good, but on the light side in terms of flavor. I also wish they had a different protein version other than wagyu, as it makes the pho pretty pricey at $28. Banh mi was good, the napoleon dessert was just okay. Overall it's a good lunch option, but keep in mind it's more fusion leaning and can be a bit pricey. That said, we are interested in coming back and trying their dim sum brunch. read more

Maison Lotus is the more Vietnamese-themed cousin of Wayne's Blue Elephant. I was initially hesitant as I am not a fan of Blue Elephant but a friend's suggestion brought me around to trying this centrally-located, upscale eatery. Immediately, I was more impressed than I expected. The interior of the restaurant is beautifully appointed in golds and greens with an attractive central bar convenient for small groups or drink dates. The drink menu featured some fun themed cocktails (I tried the Pho cocktail- gin, herbs, etc, and really enjoyed the spice and savory flavor). The dinner menu features some raw options, dimsum, and curries, which felt like a bit of a jumble in theme but was well executed. We adored the crab spring rolls which were bursting with real crab meat and juicy flavor. The crispy chive dumplings were a mochi-style and served with a molasses sauce. They were good but could be passed on. I was very impressed with my spicy green curry, which contained ample vegetables and a nice kick. Maison Lotus is doing a service to Wayne's food scene and we'll be back! (Looking forward to trying their basement speakeasy some weekend in the future, too) read more

The staff were wonderful! Very inviting and helpful with the menu. I stopped by for happy our a glass of wine and 3 "bites" items came to $31 which is a good price for the lovely atmosphere. I would say however the food itself was a little lack luster. The dumplings were on the blander side and the bao chicken bun was mostly breading less chicken than expected. The tuna tartare was okay the mouth feel of the tuna wasn't my favorite. I don't think I would come back for the food but I'd definitely stop in for a drink again. read more

Ever had French Asian fusion food? Well now you HAVE TO at Maison Lotus! I had a date night here for the first time and every single thing I ate was incredible! It was so fun to try French and Asian foods together in one meal! I highly recommend the spring rolls and the cloud bread, they were so good. The place was super cute and the staff was very nice. I will definitely be coming back here for another date night. read more

Love, love, love! I've been to Maison Lotus a bunch of times now, and I have never been disappointed. In fact, I can't wait to go back. The menu is really terrific. They have lots of different kinds of food, including French onion soup, fried rice with various protein types, wonderful appetizers, coffees, teas, and Danish pastries. I love their pad see ew. They have dumplings of all sorts, dim sum, and, of course, wonderful Vietnamese food. They have brunch, etc. The atmosphere is really fun and energetic, and the service is outstanding. This is a top-star restaurant in my book. read more

A friend was tagged on Facebook having dinner in the most beautiful restaurant. "Where is that?!" I asked. That's how I learned about Maison Lotus, an Asian restaurant in the former Margaret Kuo location. Did I love my meal there? Not exactly, but I thought it was by-and-large good, likely prompting a return visit. I generally gravitate to restaurants that specialize in one type of cuisine. Maison Lotus is fusion, offering Chinese, Thai and Vietnamese dishes. We started with wonton soup. The broth had subtle sesame flavor, enhanced with cilantro and crispy shallots. I wasn't enamored with the wonton or its stuffing -- a combination of shrimp and pork. For lack of better description, the dumpling was "mushier" than I thought it should be. The star of my meal was pad see ew with chicken. Though I doubt their wide noodles are homemade, they tasted like they could be. Lucky me; leftovers tonight! My previous experience with shaking beef was in a Vietnamese restaurant on Buford Hwy, an area known for Asian restaurants in Atlanta. The dish was memorable. It had tang. Maison Lotus's version is Americanized. The filet mignon was good quality and cooked medium rare -- but it lacked distinct flavor. (My husband, not an aficionado of Vietnamese food, thoroughly enjoyed the dish.) Maison Lotus's bartender serves up innovative drinks. Their dessert menu also stands out. The staff we interacted with is great, particularly William, the assistant manager and Olly, our server. While my preference is for Chinatown hole-in-the-walls, I think Maison Lotus has a bright future on the Mainline. My friend, the fellow tagged on Facebook, has been there twice in the last month alone. read more

Great atmosphere, fun and tasty cocktails, and good appetizers at this Vietnamese inspired fusion restaurant. Service and entrees were not as great. The real stars were cocktails here. The pho cocktail was incredible and really did have the herbal and star anise flavor from pho. We got the crispy duck buns, summer rolls, and a salad to start and all were decent. The summer roll wrapper was a bit plastic-y but otherwise tasty. The mains were a bit more disappointing with the pork in the Vermicelli bowl being overcooked as well as the beef in the Crying Tiger. The seafood curry fried rice had some mussels that tasted a bit fishy but overall was good. I'd recommend coming here for happy hour or just some cocktails and an appetizer or two. read more

We were just here for brunch and had an amazing experience. The decor of the place is beautiful and our party of 5 had semi private seating in a room on a raised platform. We were greeted with complimentary mimosas - yum!! The selection was a mix of asian dishes and some more traditional dishes like an omelet. The food was DELICIOUS!! I enjoyed the dumplings, the crude, the short rib, sesame chickens, potatoes, and omelette. We were there for Father's Day so unsure if they had a different menu than usual. The sesame cookie was also delicious. The price was super reasonable compared to brunch buffets I've been too! read more

Mason Lotus is a great go to place in Wayne. I come here regularly with co-workers and friends. Just about everything here is delicious and high quality. The servers are always attentive and Ralphel is especially warm and welcoming. My favorites on the menu are the brussel sprouts, salmon crudo and chicken dumplings. The Sunday Brunch Buffet is AMAZING and a favorite after church. I also appreciate that tea forte is the tea of choice and served regularly here! Delicious! For dessert the lemon tart is phenomenal. read more

A beautiful restaurant. Many rooms, and a very nice outdoor porch. The food was very good. We had gnocchi which was excellent, mussels which were small and a small portion, but with an excellent sauce. Very unique. We also had a nice salad. The service was top notch. We will be back! read more

I had a great brunch experience. Everything tasted great. I think my favorite was the French omelette & the French toast. The Matcha latte and the Maison 175 were both delicious.

Wow! This place is beautiful! So it is a cafe starting at opening, the dining room opens at 11am for lunch and upstairs opens at dinner time. Very nice people working here, offered descent conversation and invited us back. We plan to return. I enjoyed a delicious capaccino and spinach and cheese Danish. The dough was magnificent! Nothing else to say. The menu looks exciting and I want to try more food. There is a plan for a speakeasy later this summer. read more

When looking for a new dining experience, social media does a fabulous job of highlighting new places. In March, TikTok first piqued my interest in the newly opened French Vietnamese Maison Lotus in Wayne. No disappointment with the food, service, or the lovely lotus-focused atmosphere. Our server, Olly, was very attentive and accommodating during our stay. Our chosen appetizers: steamed dumplings and crispy spring rolls -taste freshly made. My entree: the Salmon Wellness Bowl -delicious. Dessert: The Pistachio Opera cake looked too pretty to pass up, but we shared it and enjoyed it. Vietnamese libations (Mocktail: Lotus Spritz, Lychee Eclat) were pretty and delectable. I plan to return to Wayne to shop in the preloved stores and try to visit Maison Lotus to sample their cafe and pastries. read more

Service and ambiance. Outstanding. Pho was also outstanding. The other two entrees were disappointing. The drunken noodles had more tofu than noodles and a bit of a BBQ flavor. The other noodle dish pad Thai also a bit disappointing. I don't think we will be going back. read more

Late lunch at this darling French Vietnamese cafe. Great service, friendly hostess and attentive server. My entree took 15 minutes but I didn't mind the wait. I've had better Bún but this noodle bowl was tasty. I think it was meant to have daikon radish and could've used more chopped peanuts and lettuce. It was expensive for Vietnamese but worth it for the lovely surroundings. read more

Food was good but a bit heavy, the dumplings were our favorite. We were at the bar for HH and the bartenders were super friendly as well as the waitresses. The ambiance was nice, it kept some layout from Margaret Kuos but also felt like a new restaurant with the bar being the new centerpiece. There was actually a storm and the power went out for a few minutes but all the staff remained calm and attentive. read more

Maison Lotus - Shaking Beef - Asian Fusion Near Me - Wayne, Pennsylvania

Interesting little spot in downtown Wayne. Close access to parking in a slightly less busy section of town, this place has ample seating both at the bar and throughout the dining room. Service was friendly and fairly attentive. The drink menu is fantastic! Fun combinations, uncommon spirits (pisco, for example), and fantastic flavor. Highlight of the evening! The food was less of a success. The hot stone wagyu was fun, but the pho sauce was a little bland. Still a fun experience though. The shumai were bland and mushy, not a good offering on either taste or texture. Hard pass for next time. I'm a huge fan of pad see ew, so that was a must, and they have a decent offering. Though, if you like a darker flavor, this might not be for you. I like it all, so it worked for me. The Shaking Beef was pretty good as well, with a large portion of well cooked meat. Delicious! For a side, we got the mushroom sticky rice, and that honestly wasn't that great. Bland, overcooked. Sounded excellent, but just didn't deliver. Overall, the drinks are great, and the noodles and entrees we had were good, but everything else was a miss. We will probably be back for drinks, but it'll be a bit before we try again for dinner most likely. Stick to the noodles and specials, avoid the apps and sides. read more

My neighbor and I came here for dinner on a weekday. We order the lobster shumai, the dumplings, and the rock shrimp. The lobster shumai was very buttery, and took me slightly by surprise. The dumplings were typical, and the rock shrimp was our favorite. But it is quite hard to go wrong with rock shrimp. Given this small portioned meal, the price is not worth it. Service was not very attentive, nor engaging. I love the decor of the restaurant, but I just simply cannot defy justify the food nor the price. read more

We recently decided to stop by Maison Lotus for a nightcap after dinner at Blue Elephant (their sister restaurant). We absolutely love Blue Elephant so we had high hopes. I would like to go back to try the food to give a full review, but the bar menu was good and I enjoyed my cocktail. Also the aesthetic of the bar itself was very nice, and the bartender was very kind. The main reason for deducting two stars is because of the flies. Perhaps it was just because we were sitting somewhat close to the front door (where two big LED lights are mounted), but there were small flies and gnats ALL over us, as well as the floor. Every time the front door was opened, we'd be pelted with more bugs. It was so bad that we decided to leave after just one drink. I really think this place has potential, and I would love to come back once they get a handle on the issue, maybe in the winter months, or just at a different seating area, and try their food. I don't want this deterring anyone from trying it out, more just a cautionary tale not to sit at the bar by the door (hopefully that's the only spot that has an issue)! read more

For starters, coming from an Asian background, I'm very nitpicky about Asian restaurants. Most of the highly hyped, aesthetically decorated spots don't deliver food that matches the energy put into their design. Maison Lotus had delivered both, an interior and modern fusion vibe (very reminiscent of a city restaurant) and the food did not disappoint. Asians know how crucial pho broth is, and the chef here nails it. We also ordered the mussel appetizer, and the portion was so big, it could be an entrée. As someone always on the hunt for cute coffee shops, the cafe did not disappoint either. I got the ube coconut latte and it had the perfect balance of flavor, sweetness, and caffeine! Would love to try the bar drinks next time! read more

April 12, 2025: The host was lovely, but the vibe overall? Off. We were told they were closed until dinner, then someone from management stepped out, looked us over, and said they couldn't seat us for drinks.

My family and I went for breakfast, and we loved everything we tried. I especially loved my miso latte, the parfait with mango, the miso chocolate chip cookie, and the spinach croissant. We ordered at the counter and then sat ourselves. The room itself is absolutely stunning. I thought it was really nice to have a place with some unique flavors and offerings in the morning as opposed to just a run of the mill spot. I haven't been to dinner, but as far as a cafe goes, I thought it was one of the best the main line has right now. read more

Beautifully designed restaurant, and surprisingly large dining and bar areas. Banana Old Fashioned was delicious, although maybe more of a dessert drink.

The "icing on the cake" was the incredible crepe cake for dessert! Will definitely be back for Dinner or a visit to their cafe! read more
