Reviews Lotus Blossom

A cozy and small restaurant. With reasonably good thai food. The tom yum soup tasted great but was a little heavy on the Galangal. All the veg starters were excellent. The tom kha was a little too heavy on the cocounut cream and we had to return it. Very warm hospitality and a welcome change for the taste buds from all the breads!

Puneet Saini and I discovered this restaurant while driving to the Saturday night market in Goa, its right on the road and has good accessibility and parking.

The menu had a good variety of your regular Thai fare, with a good mix of salads, appetizers and mains.

The vegetarian starter platter was a mixed bag, the spring roll were great, as was the tofu, however the corn cakes lacked any bite and were sort of soggy. They also didn't bring out the shitake mushroom and only did so after our prodding.

The mains fared better, the massaaman curry was delightful and delicately flavoured, the stir fry pok choi, mushrooms and brocolli was also nice. However the pad thai was a little on the sweeter side than what I enjoy.

I would request the work on their lighting as the place has dark spots with lighting not working and some places just didn't have fans.

I think Lotus Blossom has fantastic potential. Just needs a little more of a push.

Lotus Blossom is a rare find in Goa and once you do....you can get addicted to their food!! We went two nights in a row and that says a lot!! Radhika and the thai chef make the meals memorable!
This place is semi outdoor and please remember to carry some sort of a mosquito repellant.
The prawn crackers and sambal were good start and their lemongrass iced tea is very refreshing.
The tom yum soup, som tham salad with dry prawns, minced chicken with chilli basil, tom kha soup, chicken satay, thai fried rice, tamarind prawns, prawns in pepper garlic were an absolute delight. 
The fishcakes weren't so great and the desserts can be missed. 
Overall a fantastic meal!! Cant wait to get back to Goa and have a meal again!!

The food is delicious. The portion sizes are always a little smaller than expected, especially when they deliver, which is a shame. The food is authentic south east asian and it's fantastic every time. The place is really nice to go to as well, great staff and a beautiful set up.

Fruit Punch which was filled with strawberries and sweetness. We  ordered Mocktails - Italian Smooch which. tasted good and Watermelon Charger  which. was pretty decent. Then came the. Strawberry Banana smoothie which tasted like heaven with yummy taste of. In starters we had. mushroom duplex..Unique name isn’t it? It was so delish and was so

Lotus Blossom is a Nice and vibrant place located bang on Anjuna Road at Arpora opp. to the petrol station at Tito's White House. Goa, needed an authentic Thai place for long. We reached this place around 8 PM on a Friday night and it was already bustling with people mostly foreigners.

The place has Alfresco seating with ceiling fans which is a little dampener as it's already 36 degrees in Goa. But I noticed most places are running the same way here. The walls are all painted bluish green with lotus flowers and other flowers painted on them. Simple and elegant furniture adorns the place. The table mats are leaf shaped green coloured , feels as if natural leaves are lying on the table.

Coming to the main part, the Food. Best part is that the Chefs are Thai, which makes the experience worthy enough.

 We started with a Starters Platter customised for us specially.It had Por Pia (traditional Thai spring rolls), Satay skewers, Peek Kai thod ( chicken winglets stuffed) .I loved the wings which were stuffed with glass noodles and a few more ingredients.The dips served were amazing like sweet chilli, peanut sauce etc.
They also have a good range of Cocktails and other drinks on the menu.We tried the Kaffir Lime Margarita which was amazing I can say.
 
I ordered a Tom Yum soup which was very refreshing and tangy with awesome flavor of lemongrass. The best was the Miang Kham  (Thai herbs and sauce filled into edible leaves specially betel leaf and eaten like a Paan). The platter was beautiful and really colorful.

I also ordered a Som Tam salad ( raw papaya salad) for me it was a little more tangy and spicy with no sweet flavor at all. The Yam Neua ( sliced beef/buff with mint, shallots, rice crisps and lime juice) was good.

We tried the Stir fried chicken  with Bok choy and soya also the Thai green curry veg with rice was amazing.

To wrap up our meal we ordered an authentic coconut cream based dessert which , as per my taste was superb. Mildly sweet and chilled.

Overall, a nice place to savour good authentic Thai food at very reasonable prices made by none other than but only Thai Chefs flown from Thailand.

Located opposite Anjuna Petrol Pump, Tito's White House will be the new entertainment lifestyle Center soon.

Reasonable prices... Friendly staff.

Just amazing...
