Lotus Cafe is warm, welcoming, friendly, uplifting, kind, giving you a ?feels like family? vibe with their down to earth,... genuine presence, recalling your name & order if you frequent often, from the moment you walk in, during your meal, to the timeyou leave. This is from the super kind, knowledgeable, upbeat staff, to the kind hearted, accommodating, friendly, helpful newmanagement, as well as the awesome guests that come in. The quality, taste, pricing, of the meals are far beyond excellent withplenty of options to choose from! You receive your meals in such a timely manner, no matter how many other guests there are.They have good intentions, and you can feel that in the entire space, and from your food. I absolutely love that they are animalfriendly, kid friendly, family friendly. The parking is excellent, there is easy, and plenty of parking even on their busiestdays. The restrooms are always clean, well kept, and stocked. I have been going to Lotus for years, and the rapport has stayedconsistent, and even continues to blossom greater. I support Lotus Cafe, and extend an invitation to you to experience howlovely it is. I recommend: moonlight mango smoothie, breakfast potatoes, vegan soups, vegan black bean enchilada, french fries,vegan gluten free cupcakes, and carrot juice! I am excited to see, and experience how it expands, blossoms, and grows! Read more
A nice neat place with so many vegetarian and vegan options . I liked what I tried but spouse was not so much thrilled about his... salad and told it was a bit bland and not much flavourful. I liked the sandwich artichoke pesto with mock chicken it was quitegood. Will go back to try some more options to know if this is a solid vegetarian joint .so far liked what I tried and theprices are okay too. Read more
Friendly staff and delicious drinks and food. I loved my moonlight mango smoothie and my friend liked her sandwich. The place... had such a cool interior and design. It was clean, and everything was well priced. I asked the cashier for a recommendation andhe suggested the smoothie I had. He even complimented me in my Red Cross shirt. Read more
Came for the delicious savory food and stayed even longer for the rich desserts! The atmosphere consists of comfy, cozy and... heart warming. It feels like a well cared for home with fresh hot food ready for you to indulge in the moment you getthere. While the menu is large and slightly overwhelming with options, it is full of satisfying meals. The portions aregenerous and very filling. Food made with quality and a good heart is hard to find but at Lotus Cafe, they serve it up withease. If you?re not too full from your main course then make sure you indulge in their variety of tasty treats. Tonight I hadthe pleasure of trying the vegan, gluten free chocolate and peanut butter cupcake. It tasted so moist and dense, it was hard tobelieve that it was gluten free! This is a rare gem restaurant that combines quality ingredients with comfortable atmosphere.Take a break from your busy life and fill yourself up with the good energy that is served here! Read more
I love this place. The staff couldn?t be more AMAZING! Special shout out to Vishal for always smiling, regardless the workload.... This is my fave study spot and the vibe is relaxed.

One of my favorite spots! Amazing artichoke scramble and freshly squeezed juices. Yesterday, my wife?s chicken tacos were very... tasty, but extremely greasy as it kept running everywhere as she was eating it. Read more
