Dropped by for a quick bite and drink. Very happy with our selections and service. We sat at the bar nice ambience bartender was attentive and busy. We had the sunshine roll and a shrimp tempura so good and they had this house sauce, wasabi with honey which was flavorful (I don't do wasabi). Will be coming back!

Outstanding service and very good food! We had the Shrimp entree, Red Curry Chicken. We started with the Duck sliders and rock shrimp appetizers. Food was very good. Duck sliders were a little on the meager side and probably would not order again but they were delicious. Both shrimp dishes and the curry chicken were excellent. Beer choices are extremely limited. Had to make do with a Sapporo which was good enough. Service was as good as it gets and the ambiance is just fine. I plan to return. Despite being located in a shopping mall this is one of the better restaurants in the Shelton area!

Great meal. The salt and pepper cod was my favorite. Staff was friendly, the decor was nice. The dumplings are home made and excellent. It was one of the better Chinese restaurants outside of Manhattan or Flushing.

My wife wanted to have Asian food for our anniversary and this place had been on my to try list forever. Glad I made a reservation because it was packed for the entirety of our Saturday night dinner. Menu was very large. We had a couple of rolls for an appetizer and then shared two entrees. Both rolls were great, with the tempura batter adding a nice texture to the sweet potato. Pad Thai was fairly standard and straightforward. Prawns were massive and well fried, but a little bland. Was expecting more of a honey walnut sauce as opposed to a few glazed walnuts mixed into the shrimp and random raw vegetables. Fortunately it had a creamy dipping sauce that worked very well for the fries shrimp. Would definitely come back.

Ate dinner here as it was a convenient stop off Route 8 on our way to a show in Bridgeport. We had a vegetarian with us, and my sister in law who lives in town said this was her favorite place. I had the Japanese chicken curry which I do not see that often and it reminds me of food my mom used to make when I was growing up. It was quite good. I only wish the portion was a little larger for the price. Other than that, the place is really pretty inside and the service was good.

Visiting this area on business and I was hoping to get some good sushi while I was here. Of course I went to YELP and the Red Lotus had some great reviews so off I went to try them. I'm so glad I did. The menu is great, and the sushi chefs are incredibly creative as well. That's where I fit. I was desiring a 'Chirashi don' (a sashimi rice bowl). Quickly, the Sushi Chefs smiled, put their heads together, and came out with a beautiful bowl. I had a big smile on my face too! This place a local gem. Great food, a wonderful staff, reasonable pricing, casual attire, and plenty of parking. A great restaurant for the family, a date lunch or a date night, a business meeting, or simply a get together of friends who love sushi! If your local, or visiting the area, try this place out. You'll be glad you did! Enjoy! Bon Appétit!
