Our approach is simple: Good food... Fine drinks... Friends & Family. These are the ingredients at Lotus. We bring them together under the same roof, and combine these elements into a memorable experience. Sound complicated? It's not. We begin with an incredible variety of locally-sourced products and imported fresh ingredients, searching far and wide for distinct local flavors, and bringing them home to our close-knit community. Here at the crossroads of the Carolinas, we set our sights upon presenting to you, our valued customer, a time-honored feast that we hope will evoke a long-lost meal, an eye-opening experience at a five star restaurant, or a favorite that you haven't even discovered yet. With signature cocktails made fresh from scratch, over 80 domestic and imported micro-brews, 40+ wines by the glass, premium sake, and rare, small-batch spirits, we stock a drink lover's library to quench your thirst. Our sushi bar specializes in traditional fare as well as creative signature rolls, serving only the freshest fish: raw, cooked, and everything in between. Our kitchen finds inspiration in classic American comfort food, bringing together a wide range of regional influences and culinary know-how to produce a modern twist on homespun favorites. With fresh catch specials brought in daily from the coastal Carolinas, and everything from prime steaks, all-natural free-range chicken, and house-smoked BBQ to jumbo lump crab cakes, shrimp 'n grits, and homemade pastas, we have something for everyone regardless of taste, appetite, or budget. We Love what we do, and know you will too.Our approach is simple: Good food... Fine drinks... Friends & Family. These are the ingredients at Lotus.

Love this place!!!

The food is ALWAYS excellent and the atmosphere is far and above that of any in Gastonia. It's hard to find sushi as good in Charlotte or anywhere else in the state, the brunch is outstanding, the overall menu concept and design of the space is great- perfect date night, girls/guys night out, or place to bring business clients, also family friendly. Thank you also for including vegetarians on your menu. Me and my family really do love Lotus and hope it stays for a very long time. Every single dining experience has not been perfect, but nothing in life is. No, service has not been consistent through the years, sometimes good, sometimes bad. No different than going to any other store/restaurant. In fact last night our (male) server was pretty close to horrible. The response from the server makes me a little uncomfortable, because the owners seem to be really involved, which seems like a good thing... but if they are being unfair, that really sucks.



I highly recommend Lotus and hope the rest of Gastonia does too, who knows maybe we'll get more amazing places to eat like this in the future!
