Lotus Garden

Really really exquisite Thai food! You can request changes and preferences to any plate! Loved it! Service is amazing! Highly recommend!

It was my first time at Lotus Garden for lunch and I had the vegetable pad Thai. It was so delicious. It was flavorful and the portion was perfect– filling but had me wanting more because it was so good.
The service was great and quick. And the price is reasonable. I will definitely back!

If you are ok with a place that smells like stale old people, and you are ok with ridiculously small lunch take out portions this place is for you. $ 10 for the food pictured, these photos were taken prior to eating anything. This place is a disgrace.

Been coming here for years, and will always be my favorite Thai food spot! I live nearby so whether it’s popping in or ordering take out this place never disappoints. The service and staff are incredibly friendly and always remember me when I come in! Their lunch specials are crazy good deals, and their dinner meals are nice and big. My favorite thing on the menu is the Lotus Garden Delight; try it, you will not regret it!

Really great experience at lotus. The service was pretty amazing, very accommodating and flexible when we asked for chicken teriyaki! And even went out of their way to get crayons and coloring book for our daughter! Oh yeah and the food was delicious! Definitely get the chicken fried rice! The wonton soup had lobster in it and was a delicious flavor! Volcano chicken also recommended! Really great place and we will def be back!

Hands down the best place in town!!! This is a spot that you can’t over look family owned business quality of food is amazing a must try is the Tigers tear also there fried rice is awesome everything comes out like if your eating at home. I can truly say this is my spot!

I hail from northern California, land of authentic and well-​spiced Asian foods from all cultures. So I was pretty damn pleased to find this gem hiding walking distance from my house, on the quiet end of Miracle Mile.
The staff are super friendly to talk to, and the selection is GREAT for South Florida. I had a take-​out order of yum nua, pad thai, curry, and tom yum soup. I requested that two of those four dishes be made extra, thai-​spicy, and yaass did Lotus Garden deliver on that promise!
Food was super flavorful, not greasy in the slightest, and I would definitely come back again. My only downside was the pricing. This was take-​out for 2 adults, and it came to about $ 45. Maybe I have different expectations than most, but I am learning to adjust. And my belly is pleased.

Great food, good size portions and affordable portions. I always order for take out! Try their chicken with red curry and their basil beef… both are delicious!

Been eating here a long time. They were even open last major hurricane we had and thankfully had gas left to cook the food. One of the only places in town that was open. That always stuck with me and my family and we’ve been loyal customers for many years since.
Great food and friendly laid back service that makes you feel welcome and at home.

I have eaten here many times and most of the time it is pretty good but today really fell short. I might point out that usually I order from the dinner menu but today got the lunch. Perhaps the lunch portions are different but I found the portions very small and more importantly the meal was boxed cold and even though I had a 2 minute walk it tasted like it just came out of the refrigerator and was microwaved for too short a time. It certainly was not made to order.

Lotus Garden seems like a pretty solid neighborhood Thai place. It looked like we were the only diners who weren’t regulars. Easy to see why — service was good, and the staff was very friendly and had a great rapport with the customers.
My volcano chicken hit the spot. The chicken was crisply fried and the vegetables nicely cooked as well. Nothing soggy or too oily here. Though the flavors didn’t blow me away, the taste was still pretty solid. I would have liked the dish to be sauced a little more evenly: some chicken pieces lacked the sweet chili sauce.
I’d return here.

Based on other reviewers’ recommendation, we ordered the Volcano tofu, which turned out to be the failure of our dinner. Tofu was fried pretty dry, also flavorless. If fried tofu is not your thing, I suggest you skip it. Other than that, we had Pad Thai, not very impressive but it was okay… And just a reminder., Tom yung soup here is sourer than normal.

Great reviews on Unilocal so I decided to check it out. Lowered my expectations from California over all was disappointed. Had the Volcanic tofu, the Tom Yum Goong, and the Pad Thai. The Volcanic tofu was the most disappointing. It was fried tofu really dry served with vegetables on a hot plate, really dry and flavorless. The Pad Thai was small proportion but decent. The Tom Yum Goong was really sour and small proportion. Looks like will have to find a real Thai place in Miami.

This place is great! Best Asian food I’ve had in Miami. Hands down. The location is easy to get to. The service is friendly and nonintrusive.
A friend of mine brought a few of us here as he had been here with his wife a few times. He ordered the king of the sea soup for our table and it was filled with seafood and the broth was spiced perfectly and very flavorful the seafood was not undercooked and made the meal more dynamic. Everyone enjoyed it without complaint.
For the main dish I ordered shrimp Panang curry. It was quite good but there is one other location that I’ve been to that did the Panang a bit better. Nonetheless it may have been my fault as the spice scale here was different from other places and I may have ordered it too spicy. Either way, it was fresh and you could tell that the shrimp was fresh and they were of very good size unlike other places that you have to search for the shrimp. The vegetable that were mixed in were crunchy and not soggy and you could tell were prepared separately and not soaked in the curry which made them perfect.
Finally the tea was delicious and didn’t require any additive and made the meal perfect!
Definitely recommend.

Do try the Tom Yum soup. It is flavorful and packed with fresh veggies. A real delight. We also tried the veg and the egg spring rolls and they were delicious. The sweet and sour sauce accompanying the spring rolls was perfect. The fried rice was the best we have had in a really long time. Overall I think this place is underrated on the miracle mile. The quality of food, the fresh ingredients and the flavors, should have ensured a long waiting queue outside. If you are vegetarian this place has an amazing variety. Do try

Not a bad place on the mile. The food was great. I ordered the volcano chicken! The chicken to veggie to rice ratio was on point! OH! Also, the sauce is amazing. and staff was extra friendly. Also, try their pad thai.
Highlight of my evening was their THAI TEA! Probably the best Thai Tea I’ve ever had in my life.

Maybe an off day for us? I thought my Massaman Curry was executed poorly. It just tasted over-​spiced (in the worst possible way), and heavy handed on the «safe spice» aka Curry Powder. Lotus Garden is Boring, uninspired «Thai» at its best. Skip.

I’ve learned not to have too high of expectations for Thai food in Miami, but even then Lotus Garden hardly met them. The service was decent, but the portions were small and flavor lacking. Although my dish was quite spicier than I anticipated (chose Medium), the spice did not mask the obvious blandness of the rest of the food. Definitely not authentic and a bit overpriced.

Fantastic eat!
Miraculously seated on Miami’s famous Miracle Mile, the Lotus Garden offers an exquisite Thai experience in the Coral Gables area. I came here with a dynamic group of colleagues at the recommendation of a Thai connoisseur (thanks Luke). Our taste preferences were diverse, yet none of us struggled to find our golden vegetable from the Garden.
Upon arrival, one friend demanded a Sake bomb. A delicious Tokyo-​style Saporo beer complemented a delicious hot sake to create an explosive celebratory treat. The service here was spectacular as our friendly waiters made a special effort to accommodate our exorbitant party.
My adventurous palate led me to try the firy volcano chicken. These guys don’t joke around when it comes to spice. A deliciously marinated batch of boneless chicken breasts was served with roasted vegetables and brown rice. This was a superb meal and, I will be back here very soon to explore more Of the offered Thai cuisine!

I will give one star for good service. The food had no flavor. We love eating THAI food and have had great Meals in New York, Cape Cod, west Hartford, & DC. As the major metropolitan city that Miami is, we expected a delicious meal. The food was bland & the Pad Thai was just terrible. It was bitter & rubbery. Even the brown rice was served up just thrown in a bowl.
A real disappointment.
