excellent Chinese food...me and my husband are fussy with food and this is one place will continue to eat from...food red hot, freshly cooked and always early on delivery time....be nice if they did a loyalty card or something like that rather than the free crackers...be nice to have something different if you spend so much each week...thanks lotus house we really appreciate you all.

Took over 2 hours and 30 minutes to deliver after order was made, no compensation or apology was given. After delivery we come to find that there is close to no meat in any of the dishes, for example in the shrimp dish, there was only 4 shrimps and the rest was sauce and vegetables; for the price we paid we expect more meat in the dishes and more food overall along with better delivery. For £48 the food was not for 4 adults but 4 kids.

Ordered via Food Hub for the first time, told 20 mins so as only 19 mins walk to go collect i headed off. I arrived just as i got the text to collect. Told woman my order, name, she showed me the order receipt i said yes. I noticed a foil tray with food in on the side so i thought just been dished up. Yet to be covered. I got home the food was dry, hardly ant Peking sauce, was one big lump, congealed, took a mouthful and it was cold!!! Thought im not even going to bother microwaving it! So contacted Food Hub whom were very apologetic. Listened to what i had to say. They contacted Lotus House according to LH i was 15 mins late hence why it was cold. Funny that did they not think food left uncovered not kept in a,warning cabinet would make food cold! Also i had arrived just as i got the text to collect. The Takeaway obviously was awarded the 3 food rating from Derby City Council for a reason obviously food hygeine isnt excellent and matches the fact they take no responsibility and call customers liars. Used to.be a good takeaway i stopped going because of covid, and upon easing up went to Taste House in Allenton as LH didn't reopen immediately. Im guessing change of ownership with poor ratings, reviews, presentation of the premises and the production of the food! I won't be using Lotus House again that is for sure They also have the audacity to charge a sneaky 50p service charge! Also you are supposed to get free prawn crackers but you did not!

Food arrived 2 hours after it was ordered, most of it was cold, and the chips were soggy and inedible. Called the restaurant twice and was told the driver was stuck in traffic and they didn't know where they were. Customer service not great as I stated, I wanted to cancel but was told I had to give them 15 minutes, then called again, and it was another 10 minutes. Not great customer service, so we won't be ordering from them again.

Food tasted alright but I spat out a piece of what looked like metal shavings or a food tie from the chow mein, and a sizeable bone chunk (looked to be chicken) from my sesame prawn toast. I liked that they texted when the food was on its way, but it was delivered by a car with what looked like the delivery person's whole family inside; the man who came to the door paused on his way to point at something in our garden and comment on it to the woman in the front seat of the car. The whole thing was wierd and uncomfortable. It's a shame as we used to go here regularly, but we stopped when we moved to ordering on delivery as other places were cheaper.

I tell you what pal, I love a top chef and this is the best Chinese in Derby! Absolutely banging pal, I always go with the egg fried rice and sweet and sour chicken balls it's just an absolute delightful dish. You get 10 battered chicken balls in a bag, a tub of egg fried rice and for being such a good boy they throw a free bag of prawn crackers in and all this for £10.50 an absolute steal in this day and age and believe me pal the portions are big you can easily feed 2 people with this order. The shop gets busy and if I were you pal I'd phone ahead and place your order before going to collect. And please 🙏 just don't forgot your money, this Chinese is cash only and God we all love abit of cash because we all know that it will always be king 🤴
