Chinees-Indisch Restaurant Lotus in Wijk 06 Nijmegen-Zuid

Picked up food, which was terrible. We drove 2 km from home and the food was lukewarm. Chicken satay and babi pagang all in one container. Stupid. Never again.

Excellent buffet with ice cream and fruit. Order drinks in advance.

Funny, we were in a section with 3 long tables, we didn't know each other, but 2 tables had a birthday grandpa and 1 table had a birthday grandma. Spontaneously everyone started singing "long may zd leve"

The all-you-can-eat menu, including a selection of drinks, was great. Unfortunately, there wasn't much choice, including dessert. But what was available... Very tasty and well-seasoned.

Friendly owners, delicious food and fast service.

We had a reservation for two people. After five minutes, a staff member said, "Just pick a table." It was a rather uninviting cafeteria, by the way. We sat down at a table set for two. After another five minutes, another staff member came and said this table was reserved. So I told them we had, but had to go to another table. We sat down there, and after 20 minutes, we finally received our coffee and coke. We ordered food, which was clearly reheated, but the plate of piping hot food was cold inside. My table companion's sauce/meat was very wet. I definitely think the price is out of line. Not once did anyone come to the table to ask if everything was to our liking or if we wanted more drinks. €45 for a coke/coffee and reheated food (main course only) was quite expensive. I asked if we could pay, but they told me to go to the takeaway counter because they couldn't. It was very busy there, so I had to wait in line. Definitely not recommended, not for the atmosphere, not for the food, and not for the service.

I think it fell behind the competition and lacked the variety and quality of its peers.

Food at the buffet is replenished frequently, so everything is delicious and fresh. Today, everything was delicious and freshly prepared again. Excellent. It's a shame that the woman in charge forces you to have a drink. She says it's mandatory, but we can't see that happening and find it strange to force people to drink, which is the reason for the 3 stars. It's also a shame that she starts talking loudly when she doesn't get her way. Everyone looks at us, and it makes you feel uncomfortable. 🤫🤫🤫

The quality is better than it was a while ago. More like 30 years ago. Edit 2025: The quality is now sub-zero.

Super bad, you can't call it a buffet, nothing is replenished. You're treated unfriendly.

Not recommended, very bad. Price ratio is not right.

Food was very unappetizing, got acute food poisoning

They have renovated and it has become much nicer. And the food is always just as good. In terms of buffet, it is still the tastiest and cheapest in Nijmegen. We enjoy going there.

To take off. Good taste and quantity.

Price and quality in relation. Really tasty food.

After not having been there for a long time because the quality had deteriorated, we went again today. Food was super good and the buffet was well stocked and the beer was nice and cold.. Had a great dinner for this price.. next time again!!!!

Very bad food that has been left out for far too long and is tough and dry, not recommended.

we ate here on December 26, 2024, food cold, atmosphere was 10x better 4 years ago so we won't eat here anymore

Been there a lot in the past, today for the first time again, I think it was 4 years ago, but we were there at 5 o'clock, but half of it was empty or cold, never again for me, 4 years ago it was still good and especially the satay was really tasty. guess now it was cold and for a lot of money they will never see us there again

Didn't eat at the buffet this time but picked up the food. Was very good! The buffet is certainly recommended, but please call in advance to check whether the buffet will take place that evening.

Good Chinese restaurant. Good food. Friendly people Restaurant renovated Looks nice Buffet is not expensive.

Tasty food! Nowadays we know many Chinese restaurants in the Netherlands, but for me there is a real difference in who I go to and who I like. I have already bought food from this place several times and am very satisfied. Tastes good service is how it should be. Unfortunately, the noodles and nasi are in a small bowl, compared to the old one you got in a large bowl

Delicious food for a good price!

We picked up food from this restaurant. The food was good and tasted delicious! Staff is very friendly and the order was ready on time.

Food quite tasty, service OK but unfortunately many empty buffet trays

Containers in the buffet are empty and are only replenished after asking. The dessert cupboard is also not replenished, so I just took a leftover profiterole, which was still frozen. Limited choice for vegetarians. Atmosphereless place, price-quality ratio is not right.

Service friendly and the food excellent.

Nice old-fashioned buffet, no stir-frying!

Good takeaway. Much choice. Good price. Friendly staff.

Went to eat here today, very poor buffet with little choice. Bins were empty and were not replenished. You just had to ask for it yourself, said the woman at the counter. The desserts were also counted and the ice cream is standard. The fruit was canned. We told the woman that we thought it was very bad, but nothing was done about it. Never again this Chinese for us.

Buffet was almost empty at 8 p.m Too expensive

Fast service, many guests used the buffet

What an atmosphereless place, with a very meager buffet. Around 7 o'clock nothing was replenished, which limited the already limited choice even further. Service barely came by & the place exudes zero atmosphere.

Excellent food for a reasonable price. We could accept a little more service so that you are not left with an empty glass if you order a drink, including drinks. Otherwise just fine.

We are very disappointed in this Chinese. Normally we eat well here, but now the food was tasteless and way too greasy. We called about this and were able to come back with the food. The staff did nothing we asked, they shouted through the hatch. We will never come here again, very bad Chinese.

Classic Chinese Restaurant. A trusted address in Nijmegen for more than 50 years. The quality is also still very good. In addition to takeaway, they also have an excellent buffet here.

Very friendly and helpful help. Placed a large order for an event. It'll be just fine.

Never going to eat there again, the containers of food were empty and were not replenished, the food was cold, it seemed like it had been there for a week, the ice cream and the desserts were also nothing, condensation will form on the desserts, if this doesn't give you food poisoning, I don't know. I just ate it and now I feel nauseous. For 56 euros it is expensive when everything is empty, no value for money

Today we went to the buffet for 6 hours and the trays were empty and were poorly refilled. Had to ask a few times if they were refilled, which is a pity

Reasonable takeaway restaurant. I thought the quality was a little less.

Good food, but had to ask several times for refills

We came for the buffet, but because there was hardly anyone there, everything was made to order for us! It's all so delicious, and secretly much tastier than when it's been in those containers for a while 😁

Food was delicious, prices on the menu online are not the current prices, it is now a lot more expensive.

I thought the food was very little for the price, especially the meat. There was also little choice in the menu for 3-4 people. So I only had a 2x menu for 2 people. For almost 50 euros I was disappointed. Last time the food was much better and more. Been coming here for at least 25 years, hope it will be better next time.

Fried bacon was tough... bami pangang was full of fat... satay was not tasty either..

It wasn't the way it used to be.

Great meal. Good price/quality ratio

Pick up fine! Tip; call your order in advance...

is no longer what it used to be

Paid 65 euros for 4 small containers of fat, a bag in which the fried banana was stuffed. You can't unpack it because it falls apart so quickly. The fried banana was dirty, greasy and limp, just like the babi ketjap. The noodles are tasteless. An outrageous amount of money for this crap. We will never order anything from here again.

Good food for a reasonable price

Good, tasty food You can tell there is a different cook

Tasty food, fast service, friendly people

Everything fresh, not busy, plenty of choice!!

Large spring rolls and mini spring rolls even burned the contents. .other food quite tasteless First and last x

Cantonese dish taken away. It was really well prepared and more than enough. Recommended

I have been eating here almost every week for 30 years. it has now been renovated and I was curious what it was like. I can be short and clear here; terribly bad, there were only 15 people to eat, and 8 people in the service and kitchen, all waiting more than 1.5 hours to first get your soup, which turned out to be cold water. Sorry, something went wrong, they report it to their customers, more than an hour later cold food, really stone cold, people who were with 2 or more people, 1 received part of the order, the others received nothing. In the end everyone went home with an empty stomach, including us. more than 2 hours and received a small portion and was stone cold. They didn't care, but still paid!! But some people went and paid nothing or only the drinks very unfortunate, a beautiful company that has been completely destroyed by bad staff and deteriorated food, not even sorry!! and almost forgot to mention that the price has almost doubled!! Almost every week for 30 years, never again!!!!!! pity

At 7 p.m. the buffet was almost empty and no longer warm. Was not replenished spontaneously.

Delicious food, large portion and friendly staff. Vegetarian options are available within the menu but also on request.

Delicious food in buffet style, excellent service and friendly staff. The atmosphere of the restaurant could be better, but we had a nice time with a large group and the food was delicious.

Good Chinese food there. The fried banana is recommended.

🇳🇱 Small, but cozy restaurant. Easily accessible and clear separation between the takeaway area and the dining room. Fast and friendly service. Good food! In short: #recommended #chinesefood #letsguide

Delicious food! Dinner in tapas form is a great idea. Super freshly prepared. Crispy vegetables and delicious stew to top it all! Friendly and fast service.

Poor quality/price ratio, Sate, Chicken and Babi Pangang are put in a container, causing sauces to mix and become one unappetizing mass. With an order of 46 euros, no prawn crackers or sambal. Rarely experienced such a bad Chinese takeaway.

I used to eat here often. The food was always very tasty. The last time the food was cold, my hot plate had gone out and the food was very greasy.

It's been a long time since I've done a buffer again. Dissapointing. Try Chinese tapas next time

We did takeout. Delicious food and the next day too.

Very good Chinese restaurant fast service and good quality

Got a takeaway dish, very long wait.

I always take away, but from what I hear from others, the menu has been very good and has been around for a long time..

The takeaway menu for 2 people was not only delicious...we enjoyed it for 3 days!!

Not bad, but not great either. Suitable for satisfying your appetite with a buffet. For atmosphere you have to be somewhere else.

Only takeaway is sometimes okay, the restaurant is very bad

We thought we'd get some delicious Chinese food again after a while. That was very disappointing. The menu still had plenty of taste. The babi pangang meat was so salty that we left it alone. The sauce, on the other hand, was tasteless and had nothing at all to do with babi pangang sauce. The Indian meat was well done but had no taste. Really a no go for us.

As always, the food is delicious.

plenty of choice, large portions, delicious, value for money

Went to Lotus last Friday for a nice bite to eat. But that was very disappointing. It was quite busy, which was nice for you, but make sure you have enough people working. I counted 2 girls1 behind and1 flying lady in the shop. Guests came in, but there was no one to receive them. and could indicate a seat because the staff member had to be behind. We cut short our dinner to accommodate a group of 7 people. Not a good thing Lotus

The staff was always somewhat unfriendly, who spoke very poor Dutch, the only thing that was clearly stated was how much it cost. The food you picked up was good but not delicious. It seems like there has been an improvement.

Such a bad restaurant. Very poorly replenished. So just make kege. Get food is not tasty. And also bad service. Once but never again

Always friendly. Always good food

Good food. Now adapted for corona time with a tapas formula that works well.

Yesterday I got a menu for 4 people and it was really not edible Called and nothing was done. Never again!!!!!!!!

Beautiful location, very friendly owner, the food price quality ratio definitely do it!!!!!

Our regular Chinese takeaway. 8 out of 10 times very tasty. I can count on one hand when it was disappointing.

Outrageously expensive and no menu for 1 person! Then they don't earn enough. Menus cannot be made for 1 person. Discrimination.

Food is easy to keep inside 🤙🏻🤙🏻

Just picked up. Delicious food!

This is the place to go for delicious dishes from Chinese Asian cuisine, the portions are very large, everything is freshly prepared

Good vegetarian meal not on the menu

Customer friendly and the food was good.

Neat, simple and friendly. An enjoyable dinner. Chinese/Indian buffet. Highly recommended, value for money.

This remains my favorite Chinese restaurant. It is also recommended to take advantage of the buffet.

Broad assortment and tasty food

Good food, the tapas are great and at the weekend you can also opt for a buffet

Friendly waitress, tasty food, restaurant looks great

Very tasty food, perfect for students too!!!! Top!

We were the only ones in the restaurant. First it was a buffet, then everything was full, now it's tapas and ordering with the I-pad. The quality has improved and the service is great.

Tasty food for a reasonable price. We've been coming here for takeaway food for years.

New concept, definitely successful. Tapas idea.

I used to come more often because I lived on St Jacobs Laan, it varied in taste, a pity
