Pork dumplings
Ahashta J.

Nice place! Beautiful decor, clean and peaceful. Stopped in for late lunch with the family. We had a smorgasbord. Flying dragon sushi roll, pork veekoo dumplings, Kung pao shrimp, chicken fried rice, hot and sour soup, and chicken coconut lemongrass soup. Every bite was delicious! My husband was talking about the hot and sour soup hours later. Food was fresh and bright. Service was attentive and efficient. We definitely would return.

Lemon Chicken

Berwyn is the middle child of the Veekoo family; Royersford being the oldest sibling, Bryn Mawr the youngest. For over ten years, I've been something of a semi-regular at both the Royersford and Berwyn locations; most recently, however, my dining partner and I have spent more time at the latter. In contrast to the homey atmosphere of the Royersford outpost, the ambiance here is stylishly chic in tone. Rich mahogany & black leather highlight the main dining area while hanging beaded room dividers and a creamy white rear wall add intriguing touches of textural contrast. Just to the right of the entrance is a more diminutive dining space dominated by a sleek high-top seven-seat sushi bar. I don't know who was responsible for the striking interior décor, but he/she/they did a splendid job of understating the case. Minimalist is the word that comes immediately to mind. Berwyn's décor notwithstanding, the draw here has always been the superior quality of the pan-Asian cuisine. My dining partner and I have some fond memories... Starters like the Tuna Tataki and Lettuce Wraps (pictured), for instance. The former featuring thin slices of black pepper seared tuna bathed in a pungent yuzu sauce; the latter headlining either diced chicken or shrimp companioned by a rich viscous hoisin. And entrées were equally up to the mark... presentations such as Salt-Baked Flounder, Black Pepper Filet Mignon, and Jumbo Shrimp with a colorful array of crunchy vegetables, for instance. Chicken in Black Bean Sauce was always my perpetual favorite... That is, until I tasted the Lemon Chicken. A white meat breast was pounded thin, lightly battered, and then gently sautéed until the crust reached a crispy consistency. It was then cut into bite-size pieces, garnished with slices of orange, and accompanied by a ramekin of the chef's special lemon-orange sauce. The chicken was incomparably tender, the sauce adding just the proper combo of sweetness and spice. But all of the above transpired a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away - or so it seems (ten years ago, to be absolutely precise). Things have changed significantly; and, judging by several recent visits, not for the better. Consider, for instance, a relatively simple conglomeration of house-made pork wontons, chicken broth, and scallions, Wonton Soup. In even the humblest of Asian eateries, this would be considered a no-brainer. And yet... the Veekoo rendition was, very simply, the bland-leading-the-bland. In other words, anything even approximating flavor was conspicuous by its absence. Moving on to the entrées, my Lo Mein - egg noodles garnished with eggs, shredded carrots, shredded cabbage & scallions - was garnished with vegetables (as opposed to other meaty options) and about as exciting as the above-mentioned Wonton Soup, which is to say, not at all. My dining partner, who is something of a devotee of General Tso's Chicken - deep-fried chicken in a sweet/spicy, savory sauce - considered Veekoo's version a good deal less than impressive. I don't mean to imply that the cuisine here is "bad." It is not. However, in my humble opinion, the overall quality of the food certainly seems to have deteriorated over time. What was once considered first-class is now barely squeaking by as economy coach. For veteran Veekoo diners - this writer included - the difference is all too palpable. The same may be said for the service. During our most recent visit, for example, we had barely started our appetizers when up pops our Speedy Gonzales server with the entrées. This is a practice I have soundly criticized in previous reviews; and it is usually the result of a server's inexperience or poor training. Here, however, we received the distinct impression that management's desire to turn over tables as quickly as possible definitely took precedence over diners' comfort. Yet another not so subtle indication of this restaurant's unfortunate decline.

My friend and I dined here for lunch on Friday. We were a little early for our 11:45 reservation, but were seated immediately, as we were the first guests of the day. As soon as you walk in the door, the restaurant is beautiful and has a cool, classy ambience. Everything, including the restrooms, was clean and well maintained. The gentleman who seated us was also our server. I'm not sure if he had a rough morning, or was annoyed that we showed up early, but he was not friendly. No smile, all business. Despite his lack of personality, he was very attentive, got our order correct, and kept our water glasses filled -- all of which we were appreciative of! We started with the Szechuan dumplings, which were very tasty and had just the right amount of spicy heat. We both got the lunch special with 2 sushi rolls (I got spicy tuna and spicy crabmeat) plus miso soup. Everything was delicious and served at the proper temperature, and the food came out pretty quickly. As we were leaving, there was a nice woman at the host stand, and she warmly thanked us for coming, which made up for the otherwise awkward service! I would welcome the opportunity to come here again.

Hot and sour soup is delicious
Gail W.

Try the hot and sour soup as well as shrimp. Hunan whichas eight large shrimp. I prefer the restaurant VeeKoo in Royersford and Bryn Mawr only because of the ambience.

Spring roll appetizer
Sandra R.

Veekoo in Berwyn The restaurant was packed but Service was quick and friendly. The food was very delicious. Spring rolls, General Tso chicken, Basil chicken - all fantastic. We will definitely come back.

Pink Lady Sushi Roll  Under special Rolls Delicious
Ann B.

Veekoo in Royersford Reservation 5:45 the restaurant was filled. our table was the only empty table. Great service, clean, Pink Lady was suggested on Yelp so tried it. Thank you to who ever suggested Pink Lady. BYOB

California Roll with added cream cheese! Delicious!!
Gabriella W.

I love Veekoo. I live and work nearby and grab take-out for lunch or dine-in for dinner on a weekly basis. I have been able to try an assortment of options from their menu and have enjoyed almost everything I have tried! The sushi is amazing! It cannot be beat. The only down side would be the cost, however it is VERY worth it. I love their ocean roll and regularly get the classic California roll and add cream cheese. One of my favorite meals I have ever ordered from a restaurant is Veekoo's fried rice with shrimp and chicken that is served in a pineapple. It is so delicious! I have attempted to recreate this dish at home, but nothing compares. My only complaint would be that on occasion the chicken, in the dishes like Kung Pao Chicken or Chicken with Broccoli, seems as if it might not be fresh. It can get that kind of rubbery texture which is a huge turn-off for me. This is not always the case, but it has happened a few times. I highly recommend Veekoo and suggest you try their sushi and the fried rice!

I had nine different Baos and some were good, but some were suboptimal. A few of my favorites were the Bang Bang, lil Bao Wow, and Bao Boa which the combination of flavors made sense on a bao and they didn't fall apart as easily due to the amount of filling they had or how soaked they were from the steam. The yenta, prime time, and crispy chick were okay. I wish there was a little bit more sauce on each one. I feel like the yenta would've been better with a larger pizza of pastrami as cutting it so thin and tiny sort of destroyed the flavor of it. The gringo was a bit on the drier side and the sticky chicky was underwhelming, I think it needed something extra to enhance the flavor profile of it. Lastly, I had the Hot Motha Clucka which was my least favorite of the nine. Not enough buffalo sauce and too much blue cheese, ultimately the blue cheese overpowered everything else and made this one a bit distasteful. The prices were also not much better, Nine Baos for $47 is absurd.

With me being Asian and my family being familiar with Asian cuisine we looked forward to trying this new restaurant. We usually do a quick scan of the clientele to see if Asians are actually dining in the Asian restaurant. Didn't see many. I may have been the only Asian in our section. Staff consisted of mix of Asians and non-Asians. Before the food came out our waiter brought over a little black plate with 4 white towelettes rolled up like little marshmallows. My youngest thought it was a marshmallow and tried to eat it. We stopped him! Coincidentally, the booth behind us had a large party of adults and one of the adults did the same. Makes for a good laugh but down the road this could be a huge liability. Osaka restaurant should change up the presentation before a customer chokes on the little towelette. We started out with scallion pancakes, egg rolls, wonton soup, and hot & sour soup. Scallion pancakes were hot, crispy, and tasty. Egg rolls were blah. No flavor and all cabbage. No protein mixed in. Wonton soup is as basic as you can get. It was delicious! However, Hot and sour soup was a huge disappointment. It was dark colored water with a slight soy sauce and black pepper flavor. Where was the sour? Where was the heat? No black mushrooms. This had to be an off night for this restaurant. Taste test the batch before serving. The entrées. My son ordered sweet & sour chicken. Without requesting separate sauce, Osaka served the sauce on the side. Perfect for my son. He likes to dip the chicken into the sauce and eat with white rice. Since the chicken was served plain we all tried a piece to taste test the quality. Actually not bad. My son finished his whole dinner. Portion was huge too. My other son ordered Mala chicken. Delicious mix of chicken and vegetables with spicy heat. Huge portion. Definitely a favorite. My husband ordered Orange Chicken. Chicken was crispy on the outside, tender inside and sauce was sweet with orange flavor. Mild spice. He devoured almost all of it. Again another huge portion. I ordered the Teriyaki beef. It came with a side of steamed broccoli and rice. I chose brown rice. This beef was so tender and tasty. Melt in your mouth kind of tender. Teriyaki flavor could have been a little more intense but not bad at all. I would definitely order this again. Huge portion served. I ended up taking half of this home. It made for a pretty good lunch the next day. We finished off our meal with a shared dessert; Fried banana with vanilla ice cream. Order this dessert!! Don't live with regret missing out on this happy ending. My overall take on this place... try it out. It's Asian food in the suburbs. Not quite Chinatown or upper mainline but it's pretty good for Asian food in Downingtown. Huge portions. Some things are hit or miss but my guess is it's just starting out. Osaka is definitely worth checking out and coming back for your favorite dishes. (The other restaurants owned with Osaka are pretty good too.)

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.

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.
