• Thai • Delano Las Vegas

Booked 198 times today

Before the James Beard Award and the Gourmet Magazine review, Lotus of Siam was a small little hole in the wall located in Commercial Center in Las Vegas. November 1999 was the month Chef Saipin and her husband Bill took over Lotus of Siam. Since then, Thai food became an adventure for those willing to step out of their comfort zones for Asian Cuisine. Chef Saipin’s distinct cooking has been passed down from generation to generation, from both her grandmothers and her husband’s grandmothers. Her northern style cooking has opened America into the “Northern” world of Thailand, away from the Bangkok style of sweet and tang. The northern menu consists of hearty herbs and spices, along with Thai style stews and coconut-less curries. Through her set menus, our guests can dine and enjoy recipes from over 100 years in the Chutima family.

If you're in the mood for something more Vegas style, the 24oz. Flannery Beef Ribsteak is just right. The cocktails are best in class. We can do all of the classics, or anything off the cuff. We have all the bells and whistles. The environment is dark and loungey with present but not overbearing music specially curated to the vibe. Always the right level, the music will not get in the way of your conversations. The kitchen is open from 5pm to 1am, Tuesday through Saturday. The bar is usually open later.

It was a very good experience overall. The ambiance and vibe in the place is great. The decor is fun and funky. The dining room was a little narrow and we were bumping into either servers or the diners behind us. The steak was delicious. The side dishes too. Cocktails were spendy but not exorbitant. My major gripe is that the restaurant added an 18% gratuity without any prior information that this would happen.

A hidden little gem tucked away close to Harry Reid airport and a few miles from the Vegas strip. The food was really good - as an Indian, I’d say it was pretty close to home. The service was wonderful. Chris and the team were joyful and genuinely warm in serving everyone. The online search shows their location as on the strip which it isn’t but it’s worth the drive. Beautiful Bollywood movies themed decor.
