Somewhat pricey - entrees run $20 for vegetarian up to $30+ for non-veg, but well worth it. You’ll find very high quality Indian cuisine here. Attention to detail, quality of ingredients, and a focused menu mean you can’t really go wrong here.
Recently remodeled and decorated beautifully. Front of house did a great job. Get some appetizers too; they’re excellent.
We had an absolutely fantastic dinner at Golden Lotus. The pistachio chicken was incredibly flavorful and unlike anything I've had before, the buttered lamb was tender and rich, and the ghee garlic naan was the perfect accompaniment to soak up every bit of sauce. We finished the meal with a chai tea that was warm, aromatic, and the perfect ending to an excellent experience.
The food was fresh, beautifully prepared, and full of flavor. We'll definitely be back to explore more of the menu. Highly recommend!

I was very disappointed with my experience at this restaurant. The food was extremely bland and completely lacked flavor. Every dish tasted tasteless, as if no seasoning had been used at all. The presentation was decent, but the taste did not match the appearance. Considering the prices, I expected much better quality. Unfortunately, I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a delicious meal.

This restaurant was an unexpected find and a great dinner experience. The absolute star of the evening was the food: crisp, golden brown onion bhaghis with great texture and no hint of oiliness, a fragrant and delicious butter chicken in a creamy spicy sauce, lamb biryani that was incredibly light, airy and fluffy with fork-tender meat and Peshwari naan bursting with a sweet, nutty filling. Everyone was knowledgeable, attentive and friendly and the elegant interior and tableware added to the experience. Thank you for a lovely treat of authentic and lovingly prepared Indian food!
Wanted to try something different, and since not much is open here on Sundays, we decided to give Golden Lotus a try. Let me just say—this was some of the most flavorful food I've ever eaten! The spices were perfectly balanced and cooked to perfection. Everything was incredibly fresh, tender, and full of flavor.
We even stepped out and tried the goat, and wow... it was AMAZING! The service was excellent, and the staff made us feel very welcome.
If you're looking for fresh, authentic, flavorful food, I highly recommend Golden Lotus. We'll definitely be back!
