Reviews for Siam Lotus in Norwood, MA
I?ve always been a huge fan of this restaurant. I?ve been coming here since 1987. Then it closed for a bit. I was thrilled when... I heard that former employees had bought it and were resuming the business because they were keeping the menu. But ordering hasbeen problematic ever since. Today was the last straw that broke my loyalty. I was told they were too busy to take an order overthe phone and they told me to order online. I tried but kept getting an error message that the card wasn?t valid - though the$158 order appeared in my pending charges 3x (for each attempt). I called the restaurant back and they essentially said ?tough?.Didn?t even bother to try and take my order over the phone. Maybe they will always be busy, but it will never be from mybusiness. I?m done. The former managers Angie and Paul would never have treated a customer like this. Read more
The food is incredible. It really is the best Thai food I've had anywhere. The Racha Trio is really a stand out dish. If I have... one complaint it's just how cold the staff is. They aren't nice. They either hate their job or they hate other people. We haddinner at 8pm. Sat by 8 10pm ordered by 8 15pm and then we were thrown out by 9pm because they were "locking the doors". Youdon't say that to people. We were almost done and I even paid the bill early to avoid this. Look, I understand no one likes tostay late but you have customers for Christs sake. You don't treat them like that. Especially when we come all the time. Ifyou're open until 9pm then you need to expect tables up until then. We came at a reasonable time. Do better. Your food is greatand your service sucks. And it's unfortunate. Read more
THE best Thai food we have ever had! Each one of us loved our selections and it was made to our extra spicy level, made to... perfection. Don't have enough words to describe experience. Clean, classy, great service and great atmosphere! Read more
Siam lotus is a great place to get Thai food in the area. It usually doesn?t take too long to get your food and you get good... service. Usually the restaurant is pretty empty so if you want a quiet, peaceful meal with no bratty kids or even people makingnoise, I recommend eating here. Their food is really good, and the best part is that it?s mostly pretty spicy. I thinkrestaurants that aren?t afraid to turn up the scoville heat units are great. If you?re kind of a wimp and can?t take the heat,you could probably ask for it on the mild side, but I recommend going for the spicy dishes. Read more
First off, I really like Thai food and eat it quite often, so was happy to find this restaurant was very close to our hotel. I... was lead by the good ratings, but should have trusted my gut when we walked in on the Thursday evening before the 4th of Julyand the restaurant was empty. Although the server was really nice, I hate to say this was the worst Thai food I've had so far.The beef with broccoli was totally bland and The Tom Kha soup had way too much fish sauce. To be fair, the papaya salad wasokay-ish. Also what took the cake is they charge for rice, which comes with main dishes in every Asian restaurant I've ever beento. I wish them well, but would not recommend this place to my friends. Read more
So, since it was Mother?s Day, me and my family were finding a place to eat out. We ended up finding this place and went to eat... here? on a positive note, the shonburi chicken was overall pretty good, as well as the fried rice and tiger salad, the papayasalad was good and the flavors were well blended. The atmosphere was rather fancy and kind of empty for a fancy lookingrestaurant. Now onto the less positive aspects? they took quite awhile to serve our food. (which took about one hour.) eventhough the water was free, it tasted kind of like plastic, another drink we got was Thai iced coffee, it was on the sweet sidebut overall mediocre tasting for coffee. In addition the floor looked like it had a lot of dirt, even if it is just the texture,in plus there was too much open space which is the reason it looked empty for me. But overall I would rate this experience a 3/5since I empathize with their staff and the waitress even said they were pretty low on staff and quite busy. Read more
Their service was excellent. Generally speaking the food was good. The shrimp soup is spicy and most of their dishes too. The... Salmon dish was spicy too. We liked their Thai iced tea and coffee. Will go there again. ???? ??? ?????? ???? ?? ?????? ???????? ??? Read more
