Lotus in Swansea

Booked an early evening meal before Rob Gilbert in the Arena. Stunning food, really friendly staff made for a lovely start to the evening. Thank you.

Delicious meal tonight! The restaurant were wonderful in accommodating our table of 4 at short notice on a Friday night. The waiting staff were all warm and welcoming, the 4 of us commented how lovely and sweet they were. The atmosphere were great too - not too loud, plenty of room, and our waitress offered us a window table for more room. The food was the best Thai I've ever had. I had the chicken spring rolls, then shared half a chicken massaman and chicken pad Thai with my husband. The whole night was brilliant value with the bill only coming to £85 for four of us, two courses each, sides, and drinks. I can't think of anywhere else that serves such beautiful food, with service as lovely, all for such good value. Thank you for a wonderful evening, we'll definitely be back!

Food is absolutely delicious from here!

Really disappointed in the meal. Can’t really call it a meal, the curries were just sauce with next to no chicken and veg. Really disappointed as we have had lovely meals previously. Definitely not worth £50.

lovely place. very authentic. Thai family run. and the prices feel like from years ago when things cost normal prices ! plenty of vegetarian options which are delicious. cheap wine too ;)

I've said this before, but Lotus is my favourite place to get Thai food, it is the best.

Absolutely gorgeous food, can highly recommend this restaurant

Very excellent, fast and excellent manners

Very nice and fresh food. Gentle people. You need to go there. I loved my noodles and the satay. Thank you

I absolutely love the food here, it is the best Thai food I've tried in Swansea, but lately they have started giving very poor portions. Today i spent £50 on a takeaway order for 2 of us, the pork 5 spice main literally came half empty and there was not much more in the curry. I get the cost of living has gone up for everyone but it really annoyed me spending £50 and not even having a full plate of food. I'm going to stop ordering from here now. It's not the first time and I've had enough now

Great working lunch , fantastic service for a large group. Food was very good , well worth a visit.

Great food, excellent service at a busy lunchtime event. Very much recommended 👌

Had a wonderful lunch at Lotus today, we were a large group and the orders were well managed and the service was brilliant. I had the spicy Thai cakes which were amazing and the green curry YUM. Will definitely return. Thanks

With a big crown in today. Despite a big group the staff were organised, food was hot and tasted very nice. I’ll come back.

We hosted our True Connectors monthly lunch here today, we were a large group and the team managed us beautifully. The food was super, the service responsive and great value for money. Nothing phased them! We look forward to coming back soon. Thanks to you all !

What a wonderful friendly Thai restaurant, the best food I have ever tasted and would recommend it to anyone that wants a delicious Thai experience.

Delicious food at reasonable prices, and excellent service. Maew is an absolute delight!

Bustling Popular place. Went twice so no problems for me!

Lovely menu but hard to know what you are ordering. Duck was dry and tough should have stuck with prawns.

fantastic food. As good a takeaway as a sit down

We just had a Saturday lunch at the Lotus and it was amazing!! The service was superb and the food was so tasty and delicious. Although it was a Saturday, we were able to order from a lunch menu, with two courses costing less than £10! The four of us had 2 courses each (starter and main) and a drink each and it only came to £63, cannot fault that at all!! Beautiful food, great atmosphere and service. Will definitely be coming back.

The staff at Lotus are always wonderful and very attentive, the food is always top tier and delicious! Thoroughly recommend the spicy fish cake starter, the pad thai main and banana fritter for dessert!

Very crowded for dinner, much better for lunch for us. Nice menus as well. Kind lady managing the orders. We enjoyed the food, tasty.

A lovely location. Amazing food. Friendly staff .

Service was excellent, food was amazing! Great atmosphere and can't wait to return.

Food is delicious! They offer plenty of gluten free options too and they are very tasty. Reasonably priced too! The gf Pad see ew was very nice as was the gf Kang panang. Would definitely recommend!

Recently had a belated Mother`s Day meal at the Lotus. Excellent food and service, good portions and great value. Sold local, large beers at super prices. Hard to fault. Friendly staff. Hope to see you soon.

Amazing food superb as always lush

The food is usually lovely. The prawn crackers were very soft and stale. Not the best!!!

Great food with a home cooked flavour. Well priced. Regular visitor.

Tasty, healthy, fresh food. Bright clean restaurant. Charming, prompt service. Good beer/ wine choice. Good value.

Amazing food, amazing service and lovely atmosphere! Highly recommend this restaurant! <3 Definitely will come again! I went on Valentine’s Day and our order totalled to £60. We had: chicken spring rolls, they were very very delicious, highly recommend getting them as a starter; vegetable Tom Yum soup, the warmth and sourness of the soup really hit the spot; dim sum, it was so delicious; 2 green curry with rice, I really really recommend this main dish - it says medium spicy on the menu but it is not for those who can’t handle spicy food, but I really loved it; and we got pulled pork and an extra portion of steamed rice :) Also had a pot of green tea and 2 fizzy drinks. The overall experience was 10/10 and I will definitely come back again! The ladies who served us were very sweet and lovely too!

The best Thai food in Wales and such value for money. Amazing 🤩

The driver couldn't find my flat and when we spoke on the phone, he was unable to understand the directions I gave

The delivery driver left my food on the floor outside my flat (supplied photo evidence). I emailed just eat and they refuse to give me a refund. First time using just eat in a long time - won't be trying them again

Had a fantastic date night here and Lotus certainly lived up to all the good reviews I found. The service was excellent and all the food was fantastic. The red curry in particular was wonderfully fragrant and spicy. Would highly recommend the banana fritters for dessert. It was our first time here but certainly won't be our last!

Amazing - the best Thai ever!!!!!!

Very good food and excellent customer service andvery tasty

Food was cold. Delivery time kept changing.

Met in Swansea for a cousins w/e and booked this place randomly. Well what a find, we couldn’t rate it highly enough and if we’re that way again, we will be there both nights…. The food, the folks the atmosphere all blended well…..

Food was delicious as always but service by Just Eat was appaling, we phoned the restaurant who couldn't get hold of Just Eat delivery drivers for orders so we ended up collecting the food ourselves. Restaurant were lovely and very apologetic, will definitely order from them again but poor service from Just Eat.

Excellent food and wine. Reasonable prices. Relaxed environment. Great staff. Lovely enterior. Authentic restaurant

Nice food but took forever to arrive so was tepid at best by the time it did. Just Eat shouldn’t accept orders they can’t fulfil if drivers aren’t available. Over an hour late isn’t good enough.

Nice meal and the waitress placed a fan beside me which really helped!

We hadn't booked but they accommodated us with no problem. We both had 2 courses and shared a bottle of wine. Everything was delicious and the portion sizes were perfect. We shared a rice to go with our mains. Would definitely recommend.

We have eaten several times at the Lotus and always find the food excellent and very reasonably priced.

Ate here while staying in Swansea last Friday, pre booked a table, fast efficient service, we had prawn crackers, prawn Mamuang Himmaparn and duck Pad Makam, both were gorgeous, plus three double spirits and a pint of Mahou all for less than£60, staff were very helpful and friendly. Thank you.

The driver can never find the front of my house Food was lovely

Regularly order from this restaurant. The food tastes great and authentic. Only reason I gave 4 stars was the portion size for online delivery, could have been a bit more generous considering the price.

Really friendly staff and the food is amazing. Best thai food I have had.

The food was really hot and nice I enjoyed it

Assigning driver for 1 hour and 30 minutes when originally stated 35 minutes . App clearly states that orders are not prepared until a driver has been assigned. Tried cancelling after 1 hour of waiting and advised would be charged full price as meal is already prepared. Eventually, I gave up and went and collected myself, and my order had been waiting there for the driver. The food was cold.

Had lunch here yesterday on a day trip to Swansea. The restaurant looked beautifully decorated and clean, and the meal and service was outstanding. A lucky find, and an interesting area too.

Always tasty food, good service, the lunch deal towards the end of the week is great.

The best Thai food I have ever eaten in the UK. Very authentic and tasty. Service was friendly and quick.

Nearly all mains can be served gluten free and vegetarian. Very good restaurant for anyone with food intolerances. The service and food was delightful

Delicious food, great service and definitely will come back again!

Best Thai in Wales. Blasus iawn. Love the Freshness!

I love this place as food is gorgeous and the customer service is very good plus it's a lovely place by the river. Quite reasonably priced

1x Prawn Crackers & 1x Spring Rolls were missing

Super food, excellent value for money

Food was delicious and staff were so lovely and welcoming! Would definitely come back.

Loved it - certainly will return when I come back to the area. Great food, great service, very reasonably priced.

Fantastic food, great staff, brilliant ambiance, highly recommend!

Not sure time Everything very hot and food was lovely

Mmmm yummmmm. So good! Lovely staff. Great location!

Really yummy food; extremely tiny portions. Wouldn't order again.

AVOID. We had previously had had great food from here, but last night we ordered the tofu pad thai yet again and this time it was disgusting, tasting only of burned food. It overwhelmed the flavour of the dish completely. My daughter couldn’t even eat it. I told Just Eat but they have refused a refund because the photos don’t show the burned taste. Visually the burning was only apparent in places, and my guess is that the restaurant burned it much worse but then picked out the obviously burned bits - unfortunately the whole dish was infused with a burnt taste and the food was just sickening. These mistakes can happen but when they do the order should be refunded. Since this hasn’t happened, I would not use this restaurant again and I’d advise others to avoid it. If they burn your food they’ll try to disguise that and if you can’t eat it in consequence you’ll not be refunded.

Food was amazing will definitely order again.

Terrible quality- the chicken was tough and inedible- tasted like it was very old or very over cooked. We ended up throwing our curries in the bin. Very disappointed.

Love this place but at the moment you can only order on deliveroo the driver was very friendly and prompt thanks Andrew vaughan never had a delivery come to me so fast love love love

Trays broken open during delivery I now have curry across my kitchen worktop! The curry seems to be just juice with very little meat or anything else. I won’t be ordering again.

A great find - fresh Thai food and good service. It's an easy (and picturesque) walk from the town centre and well worth the effort. I had the duck and my partner had the pad Thai. Both were superb with the tamarind & oyster sauce. Beware - the prawn crackers are huge! Selection of bottled beers and draft Mahou on this visit. I think it's a bargain for the food quality.

satay chicken very dry otherwise great food

Wow, wonderful food and lovely service! I used to have a favorite Thai restaurant in Sevenoaks but since leaving hadn't found anywhere as good. But this place really hit the mark! Reminded me of why I love Thai food. Very reasonably priced too. Couldn't fault it. We will return!

Very polite. Quick and design was fantastic! I absolutely would recommend getting your nails done here! ❤️❤️

Very friendly staff. Small but cozy space

Excellent food, I highly recommend

Food arrived within 20 minutes and was absolutely fantastic. The Dim Som were brilliant and the beef panang was very tasty. 5 *

Delicious food and great atmosphere, good prices. Really nice staff. Love the place definitely coming back!

First time trying this place and I have to say that it was outstanding. Best authentic Thai I have tasted. Will definitely be back.

One of the best thai restaurants I’ve ever been. The Tom kha soup and the pad kaprow were great!

Disappointing first time ever! Was it different Chef? Or did I order the wrong meal? P I didn’t like the starter either, too greasy

Beautiful food and beautiful service! Very welcoming and look after you. Best Thai restaurant in Wales!

The food as always was piping hot and the most tastiest of any Thai foods. The best!!!

Went with a small group of friends. Food was delicious, reasonably priced and service was very good. Would recommend and I would go there again

First time here today, fantastic food, great service and good value for money! The tastiest Thai food I've ever had!

Great food and service. Would order again when I am in the area.

Came here once before and was absolutely blown away. The quality of the freshly cooked food, super friendly staff and brilliant price it's totally worth it! Highly recommend this place you won't be let down 😉

lotus we had a fantastic delivery from you last night 16/04, the food was fantastic and will be definitely ordering from you again. Thank you

First time at this thai restaurant and its unbelievably tasty.I've eaten Asian food in many places including Thailand. This restaurant is up there with the best Thai food I've tasted friendly staff and lovely settings too will definitely be coming back again and if you like your asian/ thai food then this place is %100 a must 😋

Very nice food but the potatoes were small but I enjoyed my meal

Food was fantastic (as always). Fresh and big variety of vegetables. The woman in the restaurant is awesome, very kind and friendly.

Reasonable price for an amazing taste. Red curry with salmon was perfection. Will be going again.

The best in Swansea!!! Beautiful and so fresh.

One of the best Pad Thai I ever had

lovely staff and amazing food thank you :)

Absolutely lovely - highly recommend

Can’t wait to return! Excellent food and the customer service simply cannot be faulted. So friendly.

Absolutely gorgeous Thai food, one of the best we’ve had
