I've been to hundreds of restaurants and this is some of the best food I've ever eaten! Absolutely phenomenal! The sauces are... fantastic and be sure to try their pork! Read more
I posted a takeout order from Lona?s for lunch today. It was my first time trying their food. The online ordering was very easy,... and the food was ready within 15 minutes, at or better what I am used to. The restaurant itself is very fun, with good music andfriendly staff working the counter. I ordered the chicken spring rolls with spicy peanut sauce and eggplant side salad. Veryreasonable price for what I am used to for takeout ordering, and what did not seem like a bunch of food at first left me with anutritious and filling meal for a big guy! I can see why the past reviews are so good! It was highly enjoyable. Thanks and willbe back for more! Read more

I was excited to visit Lona's for the first time and try some of their rice-paper-wrapped creations. Unfortunately, the night I... visited, they had run out of rice paper! Yes, really. I ordered the spicy tofu wrap (on a tortilla, unfortunately) with spicyeggplant and an order of mushroom dumplings. The tofu wrap was good, tortilla and all. Delicious blend of flavors with thespice, the cilantro, the sweet cabbage... I could eat that every day. I bet it's even better on rice paper. ???? The dumplingswere also addictive. Savory, with a spicy sauce. Either item probably would have been enough on their own. I appreciated thededication to minimizing waste by setting chopsticks aside to be washed and reused. I'm not clear on the wisdom of servingeverything on butcher paper, but okay. ???? I'll be back another day to try the rice paper. Read more
I liked this place a lot. The giant rice paper wraps were delicious and stuffed full. The stir fried veggie was bok choy, which... I liked, and the spicy eggplant was okay. My husband really enjoyed his Thai chicken wrap. The only real drawback for me isthat they don't seem to know what to do with a kid's palate. We talked about using plain tofu, which I got and enjoyed, but mykid's plate had spicy tofu. It's pretty dang spicy, and she just couldn't eat it. He very nicely agreed to bring out non-spicytofu, but unfortunately it was soaked in some very strong soy sauce. Also, note that even though they have a kid's section onthe menu, they apparently don't really have a kid's menu. He mentioned that, but I guess I didn't understand that the "tofu" inthat section was the same as the "spicy tofu" on another part of the menu. All this to say: be very explicit if you have strongpreferences or dietary needs, particularly if you have a finicky eater in the group. Read more
