About Lotus Inn
Lotus Inn is a chinese restaurant in Brownsville, Texas. It is listed at 905 North Expy, Brownsville, TX 78520, which places it among the local businesses of Brownsville that residents and visitors turn to when they need this kind of service close by.
In cities with a Chinatown, weekend mornings bring dim sum carts or order sheets, and lines form early at the most popular spots in Brownsville; walk-ins are standard and reservations are uncommon outside large banquet restaurants. Regional labels matter: Cantonese, Sichuan, Hunan, Shanghainese and Taiwanese kitchens cook very differently, so a restaurant's stated region is a better guide to the food than the word "Chinese" alone. Some smaller restaurants in Texas are BYOB with no corkage fee; call ahead to confirm. A tip of 15-20% is customary for table service but not expected at counter-order takeout. Spice level, MSG and allergen questions are normal to ask before ordering, and most kitchens are happy to leave an ingredient out or tone down the heat if you mention it when ordering rather than after the food arrives.
The business lists hours on 2 days of the week. Typical hours are 11 AMβ10 PM. As with most places, expect changes around holidays; the phone number below is the fastest way to confirm. The listed phone number is (956) 542-5715. Many businesses also reply to text messages on the same number if it is a cell phone. Its website is lotusinnbrownsville.com, where you may find menus, price lists or booking options.
Its Google rating is 3.9 out of 5 from 575 reviews, a solid but mixed picture; reading the most recent reviews will tell you what to expect.
Brownsville is in Texas, in the South, where summers are hot and humid, winters are short, and severe storms in spring are a fact of life; businesses run air conditioning most of the year and many open early to beat the heat.

We went and picked up some Chinese was in the mood for it. Usually goto the one on boca chica but decided to give this one a chance. Was pleasantly surprised the food had good flavor. Was nice and hot very well prepared. Was little less food but made up for it with flavor. We really enjoyed the food. We had the combination low mein and the sweet and sour shrimp and both were great. Daughter liked their cabbage soup and I enjoyed their egg drop soup. Wife said the egg rolls were amazing.

I came back to this restaurant 5years later. Do not recommend it. I wasnβt warned how much food it was and also the flavor was just not there. Tasted dry and barely any flavor. The only thing good was the tea. My wifeβs plate had flavor but still not compared to other restaurants Iβve visited. Service was good, very kind people. I donβt understand why all the hype of this restaurant. I hope it does get better because I would def revisit if it did. Time will only tell.

My girlfriend and I are new in town and we have been here twice and we have not been disappointed. The waitresses have been friendly and attentive the prices are reasonable and the portions are good. We have ordered a different dish each time we go and each time they have been Delicious definitely coming back.

Well, needless to say, guys, it isn't the same owner anymore. Lots of us were looking forward to the original fresh taste in our fav. Dishes as mine is the chicken almond total different ball game. It used to be as it reads chicken almonds, now they add all these veggies that don't belong in the dish. As the other two dishes they were ok, not the best but ok. The restaurant is still the same. We thought it was remodeled, but no. They were some changes, and not everything did away with fish tanks. But as far as food goes. Well, you are not to get the same taste as before. I got used to the cook Manuel he knew his stuff. And made the dishes taste different. I'm just not a fan of this one. The tastes are similar to the one on Alton gloor or boca Chica, so for me, either get the recipe from the prior cook/cooks or it ain't cutting it. Sorry guys, it really was a nah! From me. Give it a try. Your taste buds be the judge. As far as staff waiting Well they need more help because one or two waitresses aren't cutting it. Either they are waiting on too many tables and forgetting items for the clients. Their job ain't easy. I'm just saying they need more help during rush hours. Oh, and the ch
