Lotus Room Chinese Cuisine - Flint

I had to write a review after reading what others have given this place 1 or 2 stars for.Understand: in Genesee county, there used to be a few good Chinese food places. Places that made Chinese food properly. Not the americanized expectations of poorly cooked Chinese food dishes. Yes, the sweet and sour chicken is soggy because it 's prepared properly WITH the vegetables and fruit it 's supposed to be with. Not the americanized version of Chinese Chicken nuggets that most people expect from sweet and sour chicken. All that aside:The lotus room has never let me down so far. I 'm a big Mongolian beef fan, but no where- NO WHERE in genesee county comes close to The Lotus room 's. The beef isn 't the fatty grisly pieces other places serve, it 's lean and juicy and the onions are the perfect al dented. Soft yet slight crunch. The sauce isn 't full of salt, it 's flavorful and delicious. I didn 't try their eggs rolls but my husband said they 're very good. Overall if you want quality ingredients, quality Chinese food, delicately balanced dishes that are truly GOOD Chinese food- then eat here. Eat here and try no other Chinese food places in Genesee county because none will come close. But IF you 're wanting Asian style chicken nuggets for your S&S. Or you don 't want Chinese food the way it 's supposed to be prepared- then go somewhere else and take your american fried food tastebuds with you. The chef at the Lotus room has won enough awards and accolades he really doesn 't need anyone to write reviews to express his quality- the food and the restaurant- Even the woman who answers the phones and takes orders, speaks for itself.

We love this restaurant. They are fast, well-priced and delicious. Our favorite is the Lotus combination

The food was plenty fine and fresh. The fried rice is on the lighter side, which is nice. It has plenty of oil and toppings, just not completely drenched in oil and sauce.The Mongolian beef was nice, maybe ask for light onions if you aren't crazy about them. Beef and broccoli was awesome. Service was fast and friendly. Portions are realistic, so if you want a lot just buy and extra portion. You get what you pay for, and so far the quality has been nice.

No atmosphere because we still can't go out to beat. It's been take out only since covid. Love their Mongolian beef so I put up with it.

The food here is consistently tasty.Like so many other restaurants, Lotus Room is dine out only.
