I had an amazing experience at Lotus Pond. The food was pretty good. The Lemongrass Beef, Roasted Pork, Grilled Shrimp Woven Vermicelli, and Lotus Pond Combo Woven Vermicelli were simply awesome, with the Roasted Pork being particularly tasty and moist. The generous portions made the dining experience even better.

After reading about this place in an article, which mentioned the owner’s background and raved about their spicy beef noodle, I decided to make a stop on my way back from Vancouver. Despite its somewhat run-down exterior, the interior of the place was surprisingly spacious and clean. The service provided was friendly, and the food, while decent, didn’t quite meet my high expectations. The spicy beef noodle was an interesting dish, but it wasn’t exceptional. It seemed to be a fusion of pho and bun bo hue, deviating from the traditional flavors. Honestly, I wouldn’t make a special trip just to eat here. However, if I happened to be in the area and had a craving for something spicy, I wouldn’t mind stopping by. It’s worth noting that the prices are on the higher side considering the neighborhood it’s located in.

Fun and tasty place. Staff welcoming and accommodating. Great portions and wonderful mix of flavors. Had vegetarian meal, fried rolls, pho and a noodle dish. Had my eye on the wings but will save those for next time.

A 5 stars means I do not mind to go back to eat in near future. The Pho and rice cake were good but what impressed me the most is the depth of the menu – there are so many dishes to try. Most Vietnamese restaurant only have a few items – Pho … and Pho.

Always a good experience here. More expensive than other restaurants in the area but the food is always flavorful, fresh, and generously portioned. This time we got the roasted duck noodle soup (the broth was wonderful and my favorite part) and the steak & eggs that was served with a delicious pate.

This restaurant has excellent quality food and wonderful staff. Went in for the first time a few weeks ago with my parents and most of the food was delicious. The service was also extremely nice. The only thing I would mention is that they are slightly pricey, but for the quality of food it is worth it!

Usually I have disappointing experience wjth Bahn Mi but this restaurant proves me otherwise. This is by far the best Bahn Mi I have ever tasted in Seattle. Tofu and veges are well seasoned and fried. Side salad is fresh and the fried spring roll is awesome. Portion is generous. The fresh tofu spring roll is awesome too. Highly recommend this restaurant to Vietnamese food lover. Will definitely be a returning customer.

I ordered the beef pho with meatballs and brisket. The broth was so good. Tasted like it had been simmering for a week. Super friendly staff. Plenty of parking too. Got there at 11:30 and I was the first to arrive for lunch … by the time I left it was packed! YUM!
