★★★★★ 5.0 Organic Food · Oct 2025

Stopped by Café Lotus for lunch today and was pleasantly surprised. The chicken curry was rich, flavorful, and made with organic ingredients — a comforting and wholesome dish that really stood out.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Jainam Shah · Dec 2024

Cafe Lotus offers a wonderful dining experience with a delightful Indian touch to its cuisine. The food is packed with authentic flavors, and we were seated immediately without any wait time, which was a great start to the visit. One of the most unique aspects of the cafe is its open kitchen. Watching the chefs expertly prepare dishes adds transparency and an interactive touch that enhances the overall experience. However, there are a couple of drawbacks. While the dishes are undeniably tasty, the prices are on the higher side, which might not appeal to budget-conscious diners. Additionally, the portion size of the curry was smaller than expected, leaving us wishing for a bit more value for the cost.

I’ve been coming here every now and then for many many years. Now they’ve expanded the restaurant taking over the adjacent old hair salon to create a much larger restaurant. Beautiful interior and a spacious patio in the back. Very friendly and attentive staff and most importantly wonderful food!

I love this place! My friend Rosie took me here years ago and now I save time for dinner here any time I am nearby. The food is some of the best i have ever had, but what makes it special is the staff. Very friendly and welcoming. And the Chai is a wonderful bonus. Get the puri (sp)! It is a bread similar to fry bread but thinner, that puffs up and separates in the middle.

Nice eatery, I stumbled upon after trying another place for vegan options. Staff were helpful and friendly. The lunch portions were filling. Complimentary tea is offered while waiting.
