    Vlotus serves up some delicious Vietnamese. The egg rolls were crisp and flavorful, the papaya salad had the perfect balance of fresh and tangy, and the crème brûlée was a surprising but standout finish to the meal. The food really shines here. Service was perfectly fine, attentive enough without being overbearing. Prices, however, do lean a bit high, especially considering the space doesn't quite offer the ambiance you'd expect at that price point. Still, if you're after quality flavors and don't mind paying a little extra, it's worth the visit.

    Papaya salad

    My family and I came here on a Sunday evening based off of good reviews, we were not disappointed! The place was surprisingly packed around 5:30pm, but we were seated right away by the aquarium tank. The place was well decorated and they also had a wide selection of wine in the back. We ordered the honey tea, papaya salad, V Lotus Pho, steak pho, children's chicken pho, and creme brûlée which were all delicious! The menu had a wide variety of dishes which all looked great, albeit it was a bit on the pricier side. Service was great and the manager came by to say hi to us as well. They turned on the lights to the aquarium for my son which was a nice touch. All in all this seemed like a higher end Asian fusion restaurant, with great food and service. We'll definitely be back to try the other dishes!

    Veggie Pho, Fried Rice, ribs

    V Lotus is a more upscale Vietnamese restaurant tucked away in Riverstone. The interior is beautifully decorated with peaceful music playing to set you at ease. Throughout my meal, the waiters were extremely kind, professional, and accommodating. My table ordered fried rice with brisket, veggie pho, and ribs. I was skeptical about the veggie pho, but was delighted after trying the broth. It was extremely flavorful and needed no extra seasoning or hoisin sauce. The fried rice and ribs were good, but did not live up to its price in my opinion. They gave us complimentary creme brûlée spoons after our meal which were super yummy! I would recommend V Lotus for those looking for a Vietnamese restaurant with excellent presentation, service, and environment. I'm not sure if the flavor matches the high prices, but I would come back to try more!

    Family owned restaurant with excellent service and great dishes! Good ambiance Easy parking Overall highly recommended!!

    Spring Rolls

    Decided to stop by and check this place out last night, we came by without a reservation and they still took care of us (: The food was absolutely amazing, from the starters to the entrees and to the dessert. Everything was made and served with such care. The environment was so cozy and welcoming, yet so beautiful as well. One of my favorite part of the restaurant was all the fish tanks they had, everything just looked so beautiful. Special thank you to Tao and Lucas, the service was absolutely wonderful and we will be back (:

    Mango salad
    Victoria E.

    The place is nicely decorated. Staff are very welcoming and attentive. Manggo salad is delicious, presentation is very colorful and appealing. Soft shell crabs very crunchy and well seasoned, taste like it was fried in fresh oil. Lobster in Curry lobster small but was good. We did not like the pring roll, which we were given comp. Over all a good experience. Will definitely go back and try the other dishes in the menu!

    Vermicelli bowls

    Excellent food, atmosphere, and employees. Just go eat here. We will certainly be back here again if you come to Sugarland for another concert.

    Crème brûlée
    Amanda L.

    V Lotus Restaurant is a hidden gem with a wide variety of fresh, flavorful dishes and a peaceful, beautifully decorated atmosphere. The soft shell crabs, mango tea, and pho were outstanding--each bite practically melted in our mouths. Friendly service and a complimentary bite-sized crème brûlée at the end made the experience even more special.

    Freshly prepared Pho!

    Just stumbled upon this hidden GEM! Absolutely amazing! Tastebuds are still dancing. Perfect for an intimate dinner! Interior's stylishly swank! Great servers! And O MY GOODNESS do NOT skip out on the dessert! The FRESH COCONUT BOURBON ICE CREAM is absolutely delicious and an experience at the same time. Feel like I've travelled out of the country!

    From the moment I walked in the door this restaurant seemed a step above the others, the decor was such that I felt like I was back in Southeast Asia at a nice restaurant ,the service was impeccable. The presentation was incredible and the flavor was amazing, a simple grilled chicken vermicelli bowl was taken to a whole new level, the cold spring rolls were presented beautifully with a perfect balance of vegetables and herbs, I'm not often in this area, but I will be going back just to enjoy their food and service

While they seat and serve even large parties (I've visited with up to 12 people on a regular basis) with impressive speed, the quality of their food simply is not what it used to be. On this most recent visit I ordered a Pork Bahn Mi. The pork had absolute zero char, which I believe is integral to the sweet and savory char-grilled flavor promised in the menu description. As a result, the meat tasted as if it were stewed in an overcrowded pan leading to a rubbery texture. At a previous visit my baguette was also soaked and soggy, as if the pickled vegetables hadn't been drained before being added to the sandwich, then left to sit before service. I used to regularly order their pho, but have moved away from doing so as it tastes very average. On one hand their broth is consistent and does the job, especially if you are in a rush, but on the other hand is has no notable characteristics to speak of. Its aromatic blend doesn't particularly stand out and the broth doesn't have the deep flavor I would expect from Southern-style pho. The staff is always helpful and accommodating to the large parties I visit with. They always look busy, though not in a way that bothers me, and it's easy to see why when you consider the rapid speed that they serve food and clear tables. Overall, Pho Ben does the job for a quick bite of Vietnamese food. Even with larger parties, I've never had to wait longer than ~15 minutes for a table, and once seated, food typically arrives in ~10 minutes. However, due to its declining quality, it has fallen off my list of go-to spots in Sugar Land.

The light took a little bit to get used to. I think we picked the bad spot because the fan above us had a light above the fan so it kind of got stroby. The breakfast plate is garlic rice, one meat, some tomato slices, and two eggs. (The breakfast plate is served all day.) If you have a friend, get two breakfast plates and a street food (3 sticks of one type of meat only). And share that. It's very filling. The pandan dessert was a refreshing after dish but I think it would taste better cold. (I'll ask for some ice next time to put on top of it.) Parking is free and out front. There is a lot of space. This place is in a new looking plaza with plenty of shops ready to rent out.

When I arrived there was nobody dining in the restaurant, that was a bit worrying, but I figured it was a bit early for the dinner crowd and late for the lunch crowd. Food & Drink - 4.5* First up was the noodles, I enjoyed them, but I wouldn't say the hype I'd heard about from some others was there. They had nice flavor, but there just wasn't anything "special." 3.5* Then it was on to the crawfish, and my oh my. Superb, the flavor is delicious and unique. This more than made up for the noodles dish. The potato and corn was good too. Service - 5* Solid. When I first arrived the owner was quietly reading a newspaper and eating his own lunch. He paused to greet me and advised that I could sit anywhere. He provided water and adequate time to determine what I wanted to order. The food came out quickly and he checked in a few times to make sure everything was ok. As time went by, the crowd of folks showing up increased quite a bit and he still managed to check in on tables consistently. Pricing - 4* This is where it was odd. Always subjective but I found the noodles to be overpriced for not only the size but what I felt was a pretty simple dish. The crawfish on the other hand was priced very competitively and made up for the overpriced noodles. I provided pics of the menu for someone to make their own assessment but in general I thought many of the dishes were pricier than they probably should be. I know inflation is certainly killing many businesses and consumers but even these felt a bit off. Overall - 4.5* This is definitely going to be one of my go tos for crawfish when in the area. The flavor is fantastic, the pricing is good, the size of them were solid. There are a couple of other dishes I may try on the next visit. The restaurant is clean, the owner is very nice, and it's a nice low key space to just enjoy a good meal with friends or family.

I ordered the lunch special, which included pho and two egg rolls. The plate of vegetables was brought to my table, but there was no basil. I looked around the restaurant and noticed that the only other customer I saw without basil was another Black woman. When my two egg rolls arrived, they were cold. I don't eat cold food, so I left them on the table untouched. I asked the gentleman serving me if I could please bring me some basil. Instead of bringing it himself, he spoke to the woman who had taken my order. She came back and asked what I needed. I said, "Some basil, please." She responded, "More?" At that point, I didn't respond. I simply thought to myself, You never gave me any in the first place. She then brought the basil to my table, but there was a fairly large bug on one of the basil sprigs. When my pho arrived, the noodles were overcooked and mushy, making the soup unpleasant to eat. From the moment I walked in, I did not feel welcomed. The overall service was disappointing, and the food quality was poor. When it was time to pay, I chose not to leave a tip. I usually tip generously when I receive good service, but I cannot reward poor service and substandard food. I left feeling that I was treated differently, and that was upsetting. Whether intentional or not, no customer should leave a restaurant feeling unwelcome or feel they were treated differently because of the color of their skin. If businesses want the support of the community, every customer deserves to be treated with the same respect, courtesy, and quality of service.
