• Thai • Delano Las Vegas

Booked 151 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.

Excellent service and food. A bit pricey but worth every dollar spent. We were celebrating a birthday and had varied dishes, smoked NY steak, pork chop, lamb chops, chicken and Chilean sea bass. We were all highly satisfied. The bread and the sauce they bring out with it has a kick but was very tasty. If I had to name an inconsistency it would be with the cocktails, they were a little slow coming out and the 1st drink was great but the 2nd was ok after ordering the same drink.

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.
