Square Lotus

They have a whole vegetarian menu section! The food is so tasty and staff come around frequently for water a refill. Vegetarian options: Meat alternatives are added to dishes so that vegetarians can enjoy the same menu entrees as non-vegetarians.

Excellent foods and service.

got the Vietnamese Rice Noodle I've been here before a few months ago - last time I got the crispy egg noodle - which I didn't really like, so I got the rice noodle this time I started with ordering the Vegetarian Vietnamese Crepe as an appetizer, however This shocked me at how good it was It looked a little bit like a deep fried omelette from the outside, but it was incredibly crispy on the outside instead - kind of like a huge deep fried taco Tihs was dripping with oil - but that's what makes it taste so good I don't have enough words to describe the outside of this crepe - the level of frying involved here was unreal Each bite was so perfectly crispy and so astoundingly flavorful I was shocked at how incredibly amazing it was This outward crust was so perfecrly golden brown I don't know if I've tasted a better fried crust on anything The inside didn't disappoint either - I really loved the fried tofu inside The house sauce also really added to the flavor Normally, I strongly dislike bean sprouts, but somewhow even these managed to taste amazing in this dish despite there being a lot of them The magic of oil, I suppose At the end, I was annoyed at myself for not ordering this as the main course When the main dish was served - I was a bit disappointed as I was expecting more of a wide rice noodle, rather than the thin-pad thai like noodles i got This whole dish actually seemed like a pad thai imitation, coming with the ground peanuts, brocoli + other vegetables, and tofu I asked for four stars - but this was not spicy at all. It got a little bit better when I mixed in some sriracha near the end The noodles themselves were ok - nothing too special I wasn't really happy with the fried tofu - it was way too chewy and not crispy at all Did not think it was cooked that well Even the vegetables weren't as soft as I would expect - I normally love brocoli but I didn't think it tasted as could as it could have here The one thing that I appreciated was the massive portion size for the price (only about 16 dollars). I was able to finish all of my dish but not with a lot of room left - there were certainly a lot on the plate Overall, I thought the meal was ok, but I'd rather have Pad Thai, and the appetizer overshadowed everything. 7.15/10

Well flavored and tender meat that comes with the house vermicelli bowl, veggies tasted fresh, egg roll was crunchy and had a tasty filling. Nuoc mam sauce was just right!
