Stopped here for some quick take out as I live nearby. Nestled in the middle of oak lawn but actually a very convenient walk if you're in the area already. Can park behind tacos la ventana if needed Ordered the pad see ew with beef and a 5/5 spicy. Had great flavor and hit my cravings just as I needed. Only small complaint is that the carrots didn't taste the freshest but was probably just an off day for the kitchen. read more

Thai Lotus Kitchen - Pad See-Ew Beef - Thai Near Me - Dallas, Texas

I have eaten here many times. I'm not a huge Thai person, but after the gym it's close and semi-convenient. Food is average. The last time I was there I sat in the corner and was on my phone (bad habit, I admit) and when I was done eating the owner came up to me and was quite rude. "We do not want to hear your conversations." OK...fair enough, but no need to be rude. Not going back. read more

Alright yelp I'm not going to lie I have only ordered this place delivery, but I can speak to the food I religiously order the drunken noodles and spring rolls and they hit. I lean on them as one of the better Thai food options in DFW in my opinion. No idea what the restaurant experience is like, but the food smacks. read more

Our visit was in the evening sometime last month!!! We were hungry and wanted soup and orange chicken!! Well, prior to ordering our main dishes, we ordered chilly spring rolls: unfortunately, when the spring rolls arrived, the rice paper was hard and dry!!! We could tell that they had been made earlier in the day and had been sitting out a while! Because we're use to fresh rice paper with substantial moisture to it, we knew these were old. In any case, we just asked for them to be replaced with the fried spring rolls while waited for the entrees. The entrées arrived, the orange chicken was dry w/ old oranges a garnish and the ginger tilapia was chewy. We tried but, will "NOT" be returning!!! I think they just don't have staff to cook and / or prepare food properly. YOU CAN'T PREP EVERYTHING!!! (Yes, I have a pic.) read more

Thai Lotus Kitchen - Orange Chicken - Thai Near Me - Dallas, Texas

A great spot for when you're craving Thai! Service is good, the ambiance was intimate but other customers who had been getting rowdy were a distraction. I appreciated the manager on duty talking to the group in question and asking them to quiet down or leave. I ordered beef yellow curry and was not disappointed. The flavors was on point and the rice a great texture, not too moist and not too dry. Well done Thai Lotus! read more

Thai Lotus Kitchen - Yellow Curry - Thai Near Me - Dallas, Texas

After reading some of the stellar reviews, we stopped into Thai Lotus for lunch on a Saturday afternoon. The dining area was cozy and comfortable in a middle-of-the-road sort of way, which was fine. The menu did not hold any surprises and we ordered several dishes. I'd have to say overall the dishes were "meh" with nothing particularly wonderful about any of them. On the downside, I found our chilly spring rolls to be very gummy and sticky compared to what we were used to. The green curry had plentiful, quality ingredients but was a bit overseasoned and unfortunately, the curry itself was very watery. The Thai government has gone to great lengths to train chefs serving Thai cuisine to ensure a standard is followed for typical dishes but this food didn't meet that standard. Maybe it was just an off day looking at the other reviews but we did not have a happy experience. read more

Thai Lotus Kitchen - Green curry, very pretty but watery. - Thai Near Me - Dallas, Texas

I've ordered take out many times and have dined in once. The red curry is 5/5, drunken noodles are 4/5 and the crab cream cheese starter is 3/5. The vegetable egg rolls are are a 3/5. They are very fast and have a great price. a great local business to support! I'd recommend the red curry and drunken noodles over everything i've tried! read more

Put in a to-go order to grab something quick while working in the Medical District. Expected average food but was surprised by amazing food! I will be going back to eat-in when I have more time. read more

So little hole in the wall, mom and pop shop! I had the Japanese dumplings, an order of the Ton Ki Soup and an order of the drunken noodles with Shrimp. I had both the soup and the noodles cooked to three stars of heat! The food was fresh and tasted amazing! Dallas's best kept secret! read more

A solid if unspectacular Thai lunch spot. Went here with a friend for lunch. Small restaurant next to a couple others with parking in the back. Turn on Reagan into the lot. Full on a Wed afternoon which speaks to good business. Not good for large groups. Has lunch specials on the weekdays! $13 for a selected entree from a list as well as Tom Yum soup. Not a huge deal but prob $2 off plus soup. I got the Thai fried rice with chicken and also got Thai tea. Flavor wasn't too strong which was a welcome surprise given my experience at other Thai places, but it was almost too plain. Thai tea was a little on the strong side and bitter for me as well. Portions were good. Service was decently fast. Not a bad lunch option if you're craving for Thai and in the area. read more

I'm not sure why it's taken me this long to write a review! We come here at least twice a month! The food is always fresh, quality ingredients, and the Thai iced coffee hits every time!!! Walking in, you're welcomed warmly and with a smile! We love sitting at the bar and chatting with the owner, she is the sweetest and her employees are just as sweet! Everyone is always so inviting which really makes it even that much better when you get your food! Normally I would get something sweet or citrusy, but this time decided to venture out...I was not disappointed and highly impressed! I got the Tangerine chicken house special and it was the perfect blend of sweet and tangy! The portion was perfect! read more

Thai Lotus Kitchen - Tangerine Chicken House Special - Thai Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Ordered takeout last week after it was on our list to check out for a while. We both ordered the same thing drunken noodles with beef spice level 3. Spice was good a bit spicy but not too bad exactly what we were looking for. The beef was okay I feel sometimes it can be soo tender in these dishes and this missed the mark just a smidge on that. But overall the dishes were tasty I would definetly come back! It was easy to order online and we got updates via email as the order was finished read more

My other half and I were in the mood to try something new. We took to yelp and found Thai Lotus Kitchen. It's located on Oaklawn so parking can be a nightmare if it's busy. The restaurant is small but cozy! Has music playing to make for an enjoyable meal. We were greeted and seated immediately! The servers were attentive and fantastic! We ordered: Thai Dumplings (3/5): they came steaming hot. Paired with the dipping sauce it was one note but over all they were pretty good. Crab Cream Cheese (4/5): these were pockets of cheesy crabby goodness. Paired with the sweet Thai chili sauce it was a match made in heaven. Yellow & Green curry (5/5): my second favorite dish. The curry was flavorful, full of meat and hot! Will definitely order again. Thai Tea (5/5): it was so good that I ordered a second one! Perfectly sweet. Mango sticky rice (5/5): it was so good we ordered another one! One of the best I've tried in Dallas! If you like mango sticky rice or like coconut & Mango, YOU MUST TRY THIS! Will be coming back! read more

Had lunch with friends today at Thai Lotus. The place is pretty small it self, we were lucky to catch a table. I'm sure they do a lot of Togo orders. The Food was great and tastes really good. I had the lettuce wraps and some Thai Dumplings. I definitely enjoy the food there. My co workers both are Pat Thai. They also enjoyed their food.. The parking is a bit complicated. The service was great and polite. We will definitely try it again. read more

Alright DFW foodies. Here's the sitch and my opinion that matters to me. Well, I guess it matters to you too if you took the time to read my soon to be story time. But here's a shot to the food and the atmosphere that explains my home away from home. I was a baby gay; aka a gayby. I had moved down to DFW YEARS ago (let's not ask how old I am. That's rude of you.) and I was craving my mother's food. Am I Thai? Yes. Can I eat like a Thai person? Also, yes. But can I handle the heat? Absolutely the hell, not. I can't and it makes my grandma's cry tears of the deepest sadness that make the oceans hellaciously salty like beaches in Thailand. Any and everything is super delicious here so gift them a shot. But remember; it's a small mom and pop place. It gets busy fast. Onto the menu Curr(y)ies. Red is slightly sweeter with fruitier tones. Green is savory. Masaman is peanut. Yellow is meat and potatoes. Blend them with your protein and see what you prefer but I love red with their fried fish. Noods. Phat- see - ew is the sweet soy noodles. I ask it to be savory and less sweet. Such a solid go to. Drunken noodles are best eaten when you're drunk! I also ask for the crispy pork because of flavor and texture with an up charge. Try one and try it all. They're my home away from home that have never disappointed me in 13 years. read more

Just outstanding. I have been craving Green Curry for a while now and we found this hidden gem in the heart of the gaybourhood in Dallas. The food was authentic and perfectly prepared. So much flavour. The service of the waitress was outstanding and made us feel so welcome. Cozy and small and yet so inviting. Definitely worth a visit. read more

Food is amazing. Wow !!! Small and authentic - add an extra egg . I will be back for sure.

Such a cute little place, someone earlier in the reviews said you would miss it if you weren't looking for it and that is very true. Service is immediate, friendly and leaves nothing to complain about. They offer good recommendations and pretty spot on descriptions about all of their food. The curries are out of this world! I had the massaman, yellow and pineapple curry across three visits and all three were phenomenal. The pad Thai was good but would say that I was skimped on the meat a little bit (otherwise nothing to complain about). This would be and is definitely a place to come back to when in need of quick, yet consistently solid read more

This place was incredibly delicious. There was not a dish we had that wasn't delicious. Spring rolls were crispy, fresh, and filled with veggies. Loved our soup selections because you could taste every herb. We had some amazing dishes including the pad Thai, red curry, and some delicious lettuce wraps. The staff was so friendly and they were very attentive to our needs. The restaurant is in a great location near deep ellum and there were plenty of shops around that you can patronize after eating. We will definitely be back, since every dish we had was extremely delicious. You could taste every flavor and they used fresh ingredients. read more

The best soup you can order when you're not feeling well (deliver or DoorDash of course). Honestly, the best comfort food in Oak Lawn. Everything on the menu is so good. Tom Kha soup, egg rolls, mango dessert rice, all their curry, etc. BEST hole in the wall and incredibly kind staff. Been coming here for years, it hits every time! Especially before a bar crawl or after a night out on the strip or a movie night read more

My friends and I visited at 8:00pm on a Saturday night and we were the only ones inside. They are a smaller establishment and if it was busier, it may have been harder for us to find seating. The location around the area is not the most safe feeling. In fact this establishment had a disheveled gentlemen right next to the front door sleeping with his belongings scattered all over. I felt uneasy stepping around him to enter the front door. We ordered 4 dishes to split across 5 of us and we found the portion size great. I enjoyed their pad Thai and pad see ew the most. Their entrees were around $13-$14 per dish which was not bad. The flavors were good and I would try coming back earlier in the day. I only wished I checked in on Yelp earlier because they have a free Thai tea deal when you check in. read more

This is my first time in Dallas and decided needed to have a try at the city's Thai food. Luckily I found Thai Lotus. The food was incredible. I had the panang curry chicken (3 ) and my husband has drunken noodles with shrimp (3). Both dishes had plenty of meat and a good balance of veggies. My husband also devoured an order of mangos and sticky rice. The staff was supper friendly. Sorry no pics because we ate every bit of our food. read more

Chicken Pad Thai and chicken fried rice are always good. Everyone is always friendly and it's always clean.

A solid three. Tried dumplings and three entrees, none really stellar. But we did think it was hot and fresh. Service was reasonably pleasant read more

Food is always good but some of the portion sizes did change. Main issue was the tom yum soup they used to provide a good portion to share between 2-4 people. When I ordered it seemed to be a little bit bigger than the cup. Besides that is my only complaint. Food is always fantastic either way just wish the bowl was bigger like it used to be. read more

WOW WOW WOW WOW We are always searching for an exceptionally above the mark Thai restaurant and let me say, WE HAVE FOUND IT!!!!! This little Diamond is very small restaurant which seats about 25 to 30 people but the food was out of this world. I'm usually on a search for mind blowing Red Curry. The red curry here is amazing but OH MY GOD the Pad Thai it absolutely the BEST I have ever had!!! My son is new to Thai Cuisine and he can not wait to revisit and have it again. I will definitely be ordering the Pad Thai next time I come. My husband got the Drunken Noodle and he loved it. He said the spices were right on point! The service was wonderful too. Very small so we had exceptional service. Always making sure we had everything we needed without waiting. They have the radio on but it wasn't to loud. If you are searching for amazing Thai food visit here. You will not be disappointed!!! read more

The food here is decent but the customer service was terrible!!! We came in and ordered pad woonsen and Thai fried rice and Thai tea to go. While waiting on the food, we drank the Thai tea and when the food came out, we gave our card to pay for the food. While waiting for the card to be processed, we opened the food to taste it. We were starving but the food was steaming hot, so we only had about 3-4bites of each dish. I found the pad woonsen to be way too salty. Thought about saying something to the staff but decided not to, since we were short on time and the fried rice was fine & we could mix the two to make it more edible. As we pack our things and head out, a staff member called us over and said the next time you come and you order to go, please don't eat in the restaurant because then we have to wipe it up. I didn't respond, because I just needed to leave since we were short on time, but I was annoyed by that patronizing comment. Correct me if I'm wrong but my understanding is that we have a right to taste our food before we leave and taking a few bites is not "eating" as we typically consider eating. As you can see in the picture, almost all the food was still left in the container by the time we got in the car. As far as clean up, we didn't spill anything there, and even if we did, we would've cleaned it up. They prob want to clean up after every customer leaves the table, which is a good thing. But wiping a clean table with a cloth takes all of 10secs at most, much shorter than the time it took for her to call us over and make the unnecessarily rude comment. My only thought was that we look very young for our age so that may have given her more courage to speak to us in that disrespectful tone, but I don't care what age anyone is, you don't speak to your guests/customers that way! We were kind enough not to demand them to remake the pad woonsen so that it's not over flavored with soy sauce and barely edible. The least they could do is be polite. We are not locals, and just visiting Dallas, but if we came back, we certainly would not return to this place! They were not hospitable and were condescending to their guests/customers. The only reason they get the two stars is because if the decent food and that it was piping hot when they gave it to us. Otherwise, It was dirty outside the restaurant, with trash laying around the sidewalk. To their credit, it was much cleaner inside. However, their attitude towards their customers need much improvement! read more

Thai Lotus Kitchen - Thai fried rice - Thai Near Me - Dallas, Texas

I love a good hole in the wall. This place is a small Thai restaurant in between two larger restaurants so if you blink you might miss it. I visited with a friend for a late dinner, we were seated right away and brought water while we looked at the menu. I appreciate having a physical menu that also has some pictures. We started with the coconut shrimp and chilly spring rolls. They came out nice and hot. The coconut shrimp had a really nice batter that gave them a good crunch and they weren't overloaded with coconut flakes; it was just right. The chilly spring rolls were packed with flavor and had a creamy dipping sauce that complimented them well. For our entrees we enjoyed the yellow curry with chicken and the combination fried rice. The yellow curry was a spice level 2 and it wasn't spicy to the point of feeling it, but it definitely added to the powerful flavor of the curry. It was nice and creamy with that hint of sweetness. I also really like the combination fried rice, it comes with chicken, beef and shrimp. The flavor was mild, but in a good way because it enhanced the flavor of the meats. They give you a lot of meat as well and I loved that the shrimp were large. Excellent place and the servers were super chill, but attentive. Can't wait to go back! read more
