Travelling through Coonabarabran for work and some of the other reviewer's photos from Lotus looked appetising so we decided to give it a shot! Got the sweet sour pork and Mongolian beef lunch specials and both were super great. Hot, tasty, with excellent fried rice. Decently priced, and a good sized serving. It was very quiet when we went for lunch, and the service was friendly, helpful, and quick. Nice views of the golf course too.
We sat outside looking out across the beautiful greens and had a very good Chinese meal. Staff were delightful and observed covid safe service.
We had Szechuan beef said to be extra hot but wasn't although very tasty. Also had delicious boc choy in ginger and a seafood sizzle platter that was slightly hot and a little sweet with lots of veggies.
Having first tried the Golden Sea Dragon Chinese Restaurant and walking out utterly disappointed with the food and service, and rudeness of the woman at reception, I was recommended by some locals to give Lotus Chinese Restaurant a go. From day dot, the quality of food, standard of customer service and prices matched that of Sydney (unlike some of the highly inflated prices you can get in some pubs and restaurants around the region). And ever since day dot, I've been a regular. During Covid, the restaurant saw a huge increase of takeaway orders, which meant wait time was sometimes a bit longer than usual, so it was great to see that this restaurant had the support of locals. I would highly recommend any out-of-towners, or those new to the area, to give this place a go. A++
Really nice food but a bit slow in delivery. Also, don't sit outside, you'll get 1000 bugs on you.
Kevin is always friendly and accommodating . Delish meals
Consistently delicious food. Rainbow beef was terrific, rice was on point, lemon chicken is always a winner, and the service delivery was fantastic. Will be back.
