Lotus Garden

This restaurant is famous for its Lanzhou style noodle, however, my only one experience tells me the noodle here is just so so no matter taste or shape. I don't want to be very critical to this restaurant so I would like to recommend fried rice here. Honestly, the fried rice of this restaurant could be one of the top fried rice I had eaten in the US as a Chinese. Don't expect too much if u really try to have a real Chinese food here.

Best place for Cantonese food. The crispy spicy beef and deep fried pork chops are the best. They make all their noodles fresh and there is a window where you can see them making your order. Food is always fresh and very tasty.

Food was definately a notch above most local Chinese places. Fresh ingredients but very basic recipes. We had hand cut and hand pulled noodles and they were both good. Service could be more attentive.

We LOVE this restaurant! The food is always fantastic and the staff is very welcoming and helpful. The restaurant is also friendly to those with mobility issues, both in terms of the dining room and the restroom, though the location of the bussing carts makes for a very tight turn when going to or from the restroom.

This is by far one of the best kept secrets in Northern Virginia!! It’s a small hole-in-the-wall restaurant, but because of it’s size, the chefs can deliver the highest quality of food, which is perfect for the fast-paced nature of Chinese cooking! You’ve probably driven by and wouldn’t give it a second glance. Next time, definitely stop in!

This restaurant specializes in traditional Cantonese dishes. EVERYTHING we have gotten in the several years we have been going, has been absolutely outstanding, no matter what time of day you visit!

Hanging in the chef’s kitchen window, you see their beautifully-glazed roast pork (char siu), succulent roast duck, and gleaming soy sauce chicken. (But definitely try their fried or steamed chicken... they are also perfectly executed!) Through the window you can also see their noodle chef showcasing his art, hand-pulling their noodles into beautiful uniform lengths, for all of the noodle and soup dishes. Go outside your comfort zone and order the more traditional dishes (not your westernized Chinese food). Everything is so delicate and tasty. Each dish is different than the next!

Honestly, the best judges of the food are my VERY hard-to-please Chinese parents. They visit at least once a week and rave about the food and service each time they go. I promise you won’t be disappointed; it’s truly that good!!!
