Fresh. Innovative. Delicious.
I could go all day with one-word summaries of how good this place was.
I’m an Omakase type diner, so my date and I sat in front of Chef Edgar and Chef Dylan requested that they just ” do their thing”, until i tap out.
They did not disappoint. Everything was plated perfectly. Tasted delicous. Wonderful layers of flavor on every dish. I was never left waiting for food. In fact, the restaurant was full, and they managed to keep plates flying to tables while feeding a full sushi bar. Dem boys are good. Also, the few hot dishes I got from the kitchen were so good! Highly recommend the spicy edamame.
They’re currently waiving a corkage fee so BYOB. Brought our own bottles of wine to enjoy with this amazing meal. There is a mini mart right next door with great deals , so convenient.
As you’re reading this, youre probably saying: “Wow..great review! theres no more you can say, I’m already sold and eating there tonight!”.
But there is more, and to me, is equally as important as the food. THE SERVICE!
Our waitress, Kaci, was nothing short of incredible. Great service, so attentive and greeted us with a smile as we walked in. She made an already outstanding meal, an overall phenomenal experience.
I highly recommend this beautiful new gem of a sushi restaurant perfectly located in Lakeview/WestEnd.

Kind people and great food! I swung by here on my way home this evening and I was very impressed. I got to speak with Betty, the proprietress, for a couple minutes. She was very kind and explained the menu to me. I ordered a Kimie Iwata roll and some shrimp fried rice – then went to wait in my car. They brought my food out, and included a couple extras too – some shrimp and a nice pair of reusable chopsticks.
The food was delicious, and it was clear that they take pride in what they do! Lots of nice little touches. It’s great to have small businesses like Lotus Bistro here in Lakeview. Ill be coming back next time I am craving sushi!

Hands down the absolute BEST SUSHI I’ve ever eaten anywhere on earth and I’ve travelled the world. Everything we’ve ever ordered has been delicious, seriously, but some of our go-to’s include, but are in no way limited to: Tomoe Gozen Roll (soy paper), Masako Katsura Roll (Eat Fit Certified!), Chef’s Special Roll (mix of deliciousness), Stuffed Jalapeños for an app and Tempura Cheesecake for dessert (perfect combo of sweet/salt + crunch/cream + warm/cold of all time). On top of it all, the customer service is second to none. The owner and her staff couldn’t be more friendly or accommodating. Trust me on this one, folks!

My wife and I had a fantastic experience here, we sat outside and started with a couple of their wonderful cocktails. I had the Socialite, with gin, elderflower, and cucumber, perfect for a summer evening. My wife had the FOMO, it has pineapple, turmeric, vodka and it was delicious, earthy and refreshing as described. The sushi was fantastic also and our waitress was funny, fun and she made some good recommendations also. We’ll be back for sure.

Just another honest review for Lotus Bistro! The food was superior to many of the restaurants I have tried with similar menus in Aventura, Florida as-well-as Atlanta, Ga! My waitress was Pie and she had a great sense of humor! During the meal the owner, Betty Sun made her self know and it was obvious why the experience and food preparation was superior! She was pleasant and a beauty women inside and out! If you are in the area you have to give Lotus Bistro a try! If you are looking to cater a party or just want to take a drive across town its a great Sushi Restaurant to try with a friend, love one or colleague!

I hadn’t been to Lotus since they closed during Covid. A newly remodeled dinning room and the familiar Sushi bar was a treat. The freshness of the seafood was right on. Some new dishes were wonderful and the attention shown by the staff was the best. Betty is the chef/owner and is very proud to offer suggestions and tips of how the recipes are made. Try the Fireman Mike roll and the Sushi pizza but don’t skip the Sushi and Sashimi. Gouza soup was extremely good

My new favorite neighborhood sushi restaurant! Lotus Bistro was super easy, fairly priced, and the food was by far some of the best sushi I’ve had in a while! They were super nice, brought our food to our car, and even gave us bonus chopsticks that I can’t wait to use again! I will definitely be ordering from Lotus Bistro again real soon!

Fabulous! Lovely service. The salmon sashimi was so fresh. We had two house rolls, Lotus and the pool shark lady roll (not it’s real name) were delicious. Happy hour from 4:00. We’ll be back!

A new “must try” gem in Lakeview. The food was phenomenal with flavor that continually surprises and impresses with each roll. We tried several signature rolls with a blend of starters and loved them all! Service and staff also deserve many props. Great new restaurant!
