Restaurant: Lotus Thai is a bit boring, has low parking availability nearby, and doesn't have as good as an atmosphere as competitors
Service: Good
Curry puffs: Nice crispy outer and good filling.
Fried rice: Seriously bland and boring, poor rice choice and cooking, and odd...fillings. Almost no seasoning apart from the heat added with a request for medium spice. Honestly, worse than I would expect from a standard fish and chips style takeaway, yet alone a restaurant. Served with frozen style vegetables rather than proper chunks such as broccoli and cauliflower, and instead had only weirdly shaped pieces of onion and large cuts of cucumber and tomato.
Value: OK.
All in all, pretty sad at the moment but no good Thai offerings in Taupo.More
