GINA DEVINGO

Always good food and service.

Jesse Dodge

Very very good

jason lawrence

Food selection has come up but the food is gross tasting and makes me sick every time I go there. I won't say one star because the service is polite and respectful even though they were packed but the food is why I go to a restaurant and the food unfortunately sucks

Elizabeth Cyr

Always a great experience for our families!

Myrtle Chase

I've been there every Saturday after shopping since December 2018

Larissa Young

Great food, for a buffet. Clean place, friendly and attentive staff. The food is fresh and doesn't sit for long. They appear to make smaller batches if it isn't busy, therefore making food more frequently as needed.

Cassandra Spencer

Great food and great service. No complaints really

Amber Sargent

Great place to bring the kids or a group of people

Nancy Butts

Love Lotus they have great food as well as staff

Carla Evans

Clean, nicely decorated and very nice staff. Food was good and buffet was well stocked. Some of the food was alittle picked over and not as hot as I would have liked but overall a great value. Was very happy when the check came as it was only $30 for a family of 4 for the buffet. Will definetly go again.

Pam Whittier

The service was very good. The food at the buffet I felt was excellent. Great salad bar for the wife and all the hot foods were hot. I really enjoyed it and Can't wait to go back!!!

kashxxily

If you go on a good night food is usually stocked at the buffet. Even on a busy night the food and service is great.

karen dube

Everything was good except for the ordering part. New waiter. No one writes stuff down so tbey have to keep coming back to ask about your order 3 -4 times.

SAM Dalfonso

Very good food and prices..i drive 25 miles once a week to eat there

Tiffany May

We are regulars at lotus, going at least 2 orn3 times a month. The staff is always very welcoming and courteous. Easily my favorite buffet in the area!

Jessica Barry

Food is good, hot and fresh. Service is always very nice. Prices are worth it.

Keith Smith

I eat here a lot ...this is the only bad experience I've ever had here... the food is normally fresh and delicious.. I tried to let them know about the rangoon being less than satisfactory... and they tried to argue that it was the recipe they use...had they just acknowledged that it was less than what it should be they would get 5 stars .. but I don't want to argue about bad food... in hindsight I should have taken a picture.

Lisa Cloutier

Great food and service

Scott Pinette

Incredible food very delicious very clean and very friendly staff highly recommended

James Danse

Buffet is awesome. Reasonable prices. Unfriendly staff.

Brianna Shade

Me and my husband love coming here. It's the most sanitary buffet we have found. Decent prices. And great service. My husband especially love the dinner options here. They serve a lot of sea food during dinner which is what he likes. It's also close to our house so location is great too.

N VEE

Polite and attentive service, fully stocked Chinese and Japanese buffe'. The food taste amazing but the real treat is the sushi bar, they also have some pretty tasty apetitisers as well as some deserts. Over all I'd give it a 10 if the rattings wasn't just limited to 5 stars.

Shelley Rogers

We love the food here took my daughter and her family there for my grandsons for my olds grandson Clayton birthday and they love to beable to have what ever they want on the buffet and my youngest couldn't say jello and he would always call it the jelly place.

I love coming here with my family. The atmosphere is nice, the food is delicious, and the staff never lose their smiles even when I'm dragging my screaming toddler out (she never wants to leave).

Peter Dyer

Good service and food.

Ann Chattick

Found this place very friendly and the food delightful. Buffet was well done and steaming hot but not to much to dry the food. We will go again with other family members.

April Wilson

Food was really good and fresh. I liked how they would place smaller amounts of good out to ensure freshness. Our waitress, Alice, was amazing! All staff was friendly and the restrooms were very clean.

Ed Short

We found the Lotus Restaurant to be clean with excellent food and service. We ate from the buffet and found that the food was plentiful and very good. The staff was constantly cleaning around the buffet keeping the area presentable. The desert area had a very good selection of ice cream as well as small cakes. We are traveling and should we come through this way again we will definitely eat here.

William Wall

Great food. Especially for dinner. They just need to switch it up a bit sometimes. But otherwise it is a local awesome buffet. No Vegas buffet but a good one.

Martin Bailey

Large buffet and great service. Good quality food as well.

Rodney Winslow Sr

Lotus has great food. The wait staff is excellant.Check out counter is very friendly.

Brian Scronce

Great food, as always! It's fresh and hot! By far, the best Chinese food buffet in the L/A, Brunswick, Topsham area. Great service too.

Stephen Getchell

Decent restaurant for the price, good atmosphere

Jessi-Lee Buck

It was so busy & loud everytime we're there we can't even talk to each other at the table

Mona DeBose

Best Chinese buffet in the area, they also have very good sushi

Veronica Sterling

Delicious and different! Not the same old buffet food. The staff is very friendly and courteous. Food was hot, and didn't look like it had been sitting in a buffet table for a day. The choices have been different each time I have gone, keeping the same basics, lo mein, general Tsao chicken, that sort of thing. Basic sushi is available as is a delicious seaweed salad. Full bar for those who are interested with nice specialty drinks. Hershey's ice cream bars, ice cream, cakes, and more available for dessert. Really like this restaurant!

Ernest Saindon

Excellent food and relaxing atmosphere ☕ Super great restaurant!!

All the food was fresh and on point... I know this may sound bad but I was there for a paint night that I had to pay for and they booked a party of 50 right where they put the party for paint night and it's all open

Sarah Mahan

This is the place you want to go to if you're looking for a little bit of everything. Buffet style that pleases the whole family at a great price!

MoonlightSeraph

Only visited for a quick meal, but the food was surprisingly good! Very friendly staff and a very welcoming environment. Fresh Sushi all around!

Jillian Warner

Great food, great people the lunch time isn't the best but the dinner is much better because it has more options.

Mike Whalen

Good food, low cost

Robin B

Excellent food and service at very reasonable prices.

lendogg1979

The food was great even at 8pm. They were still bringing out fresh food for things that were gone. I appreciate that! Sometimes buffets later at night you get what you get and pay the same. We have always had a good experience here.

Phillip Somers

In my opinion the best Asian buffet in the area. Been going here for a few years now. Yeah I've heard they have some rough history but that was before my first visit and I understand management has changed since then. They have most of your favorite Asian dishes even sushi. Not much in the way of deserts, typically at buffets you find a soft serve machine, not here. They do have ice cream but it's individual treats or scoop yourself chest freezer. Still, food tasted good and they are pretty quick at refilling trays and cleaning your table.

Norman Richardson

Can't ask for a better place, staff is great and always have the food I want. The price is good

Michelle Miskinis

Great experience. Will eat there again.

Jasmine Saindon

They only offer like 1 vegetarian option.

Dale Carr

Went for the Mother's day buffet. Food was good although the "Chinese clams" disappeared shortly after 7pm. Duck was moist but sauce was overpowering (garlic and soy). Tasted good but just didn't taste like duck. Tasted like the garlic sauce that is in all their other dishes. You could have put any meat in the duck dish and it would have tastes the same. Stuffed haddock was a bit dry. Lemon wedges would have helped. There may have been some I missed but definitely would have helped. Was packed even at 7 pm and the table we had was near the drink station and the servers were constantly beating plates into the garbage bucket there and congregating to rant about their day 8 ft away from where we were trying to eat. Not the best experience, but the food was good and it wasn't the worst experience.

Dillon N

Literally nothing beats eating at Lotus! Owners are super friendly! Custom sushi rolls, chinese buffet, hibachi and more!

Joshua Viles

Loved the buffet and really great prices

Melissa Shepherd

zahra goode

Since we had issue with chinese food from different restaurant, it always stops us to go to one. Found this restaurant with great reviews.. so tried. The food was great and delicious.. plenty of options for ice cream too. Price is reasonable about $10 per person.

Marc Tabor

The food was hot, fresh and of decent quality. First Oriental style buffet I have been to in a long time where the meat was not rubbery. Priced very reasonable and there was no charge for the hot tea. Definitely on my return list for a quick lunch!

Sylvia Corriveau

Beautiful buffet restaurant for the area. Better than the other "big" local Chinese buffet by far. Very friendly staff, always a good experience.

Frank Dorr

Great food at a very reasonable price!

Alvin D.

It's ok, typical buffet. The place is clean and has has a attractive appearance. The staff is very pleasant and attentive. All the food was hot and fresh. I might go back if in the area but wouldn't go out of my way to return. Good place to go for lunch if on a budget.

The food was delicious! The green beans were slightly salty overall I was very satisfied . The sushi was amazing! Also, the cinnamon cream cheese icing desert was to die for. I would definitely recommend. If you are interested in having a drink from the bar...all of them are fantastic!
