Our group was split on what everyone wanted to order and we found Lotus Xpress that had a little bit of everything! We got the orange sesame chicken, crab rangoon, drunken noodles, and a few different sushi rolls. Everything was so good, it was easy to pick up from them because they have a parking lot, the food was ready quickly and everything seemed very fresh. Prices were also very reasonable. We will definitely be back!

We didn’t dine in, instead did a take out. Some fried rice and soup. My partner and I, are both stomach sick since last night when we ate the food. Avoid at all costs.

I ordered from here for the first time tonight and have never been more disappointed with chinese food in my life. Their photos look great and their reviews make their food seem great. I ordered sweet and sour chicken with rice and spring rolls. What I received was chicken fingers with a side of sweet and sour sauce, plain brown rice, and a single spring roll.

This place is okay. The staff is friendly, and there is not much of a waiting time involved; but the food itself is not very impressive. I have tried about three dishes here so far – mala spicy vegetables with fried tofu, vegetarian delight and General Gao’s chicken. The veggie dishes were not as flavorful, but the spring rolls are pretty good. Overall, a mediocre place to get a lunch combo under $10.

Awesome food, awesome people, at a good price

I normally don’t write reviews but I have to. Now I’m not bashing here their food is good but they over charged my card wich is absolutely not ok and when I asked for my money back they did not refund me they refused. So ordering here you have to be careful!
