This review is an extension of their UIC location... Really excited they opened a much closer location for me to try. Love the garden rolls w/ peanut sauce and banh mi's!

Great find. Tasty banh mi sandwiches. Fast & friendly service. Came here for a pickup mid weekday. Calm atmosphere. I will return!

One of the best banh mi sandwiches ever. Clean restaurant. Really chic. A go-to of mine for lunch and catering

Yum! They make a really good banh mi! Highly recommend! I've eaten banh mi in Vietnam and this was as good.

Best place to get Vietnamese pho!! Lotus banh Mi is my go to place to get delicious Vietnamese food at affordable prices. This is my go to lunch time spot. The ginger chicken pho and beef noodle salad are my favorite . They have a nice selection of food time and they also have some vegetarian options. Everything I have tried on their menu has been great. We ordered the curry chicken rice bowl, beef noodle salad, ginger chicken pho, soy glazed wings, veggiecado, and shrimp spring rolls.

First time here, was feeling a bit under the weather so I thought a nice Pho would help fix that. Very nice little place, low key, tastefully decorated. We had the shrimp spring rolls with peanut sauce, super yummy. The noodle soups were delicious with plenty of meat and noodles, very tasty broth and sprouts, lime, jalapeños, and basil to add. You can also get sauces if you like. We both were very happy with our food that was delicious and plentiful. Another nice touch was the kindness and politeness of our server. We will be back, thank you for the nice experience!

The ginger chicken bahn mi is amazing. Super fresh and delicious! The bread is light and crispy and the chicken is so flavorful! Definitely will be back!

We got the beef pho noodle soup and the chicken pho noodle soup to go for lunch. The order was ready on time and packaged well. The soup is absolutely delicious! I’d recommend this place to anyone.

This place is so fire. I ended up getting another sandwich back to back. And I’m leaving another review. 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Honey pork banh mi is fire. This place is also clean and modern.

Absolute GEM!!! It's a small, cozy fast-casual spot in the middle of a busy Oakbrook shopping corridor. We came in on Saturday during late lunch, and ordered 2 banh mi sandwiches and a Beef Pho. The sandwiches were simply amazing. The buns were fresh, soft on the inside and crunchy on the outside. The filling was fresh, warm, flavorful and absolutely delicious! The pho was delightful, had great toppings and deep flavor! Only small gripe is I would have liked a bit more toppings to add besides that Thai basil and bean sprouts (like cilantro, onions, jalapeño, etc.) but the simplicity of the pho was overshadowed by its great flavor and the HUGE portion (which we ate and took home the leftovers for 2 additional meals) The price point was slightly higher than "fast food" but manageable at about $40 for two people for 2 sandwiches, Pho, and a can of soda. We really enjoyed Lotus Bahn Mi and would absolutely recommend it!

Came in for lunch and I am shocked that this place was not busy!! People are sleeping on this place. Had the Chicken Pho and a pork egg roll, let me tell you it was good AF. Fresh and hot! They had all the fixings you would want! I wasn’t too hungry otherwise I would have added eggs. But it did not let down. I live in Elmhurst but will definitely be ordering from here more often!

Nice service and fine dining experience

Best pho in the western suburbs! The beef is super tasty and the broth is clean. The service is great, they remember us every time we come in.

Friendly and fast team. The place is well kept. The food is amazing. All of their sandwiches are fairly priced and full of flavor. Their coffee is amazing.

As a UIC alumni, I have eaten at Lotus all the time. Now that I am in the suburbs, i have never been able to satisfy my pho craving because all the places around here suck. I would always drive to downtown to pick some up. Until 1 day I saw they opened a oakbrook location. Safe to say, best pho in the suburbs hands down.

2nd time trying this place and it's still great! The beef pho is so good and the banh mi was excellent. My wife is in love with the Vietnamese coffee.

Been to the OG Lotus at UIC and saw there was a new location at Oakbrook. Luckily was around the area and checked it out. The tastes were definitely different. Good regardless. I got the #1 banh mi and it had pate which was different. Very filling and flavorful. A lot of space and service was very quick. Ambience was very laid back and modern

Great service and new food in the area. Food was outstanding and will definitely be back soon! Highly recommend it!

Food was really good quality. Got takeout - Shrimp spring rolls, Belly classic bang mi, pork noodle bowl. We will be back so we can try the Pho!

Everything was absolutely delicious! Great service, clean, and really fresh food. Definitely visiting again!

First time trying this restaurant and the food was AMAZING. Fresh, tasty and good size portion. Money well spent and I will definitely order again!

So nice! The food was A-mazing and would definitely go here again.

Delicious food, the pho was fresh and light and the pork eggroll was amazing, and had a wonderful environment, with quick and friendly service

A very delicious lunch place! The food was very delicious and fresh, and the service was very quick and attentive.

Wow! Delicious. Just what all the other reviews say. Super fresh tasting. I've been twice and got the Belly classic and Sunny Side Beef Banh Mi. Both were wonderful. Looking forward to tying the Pho and rice bowls.

After doing some holiday shopping, had a taste for bahn mi and was happy to find this beautiful location. The place itself is super spacious, clean, and had very friendly staff - other reviews specified how kind they are as well which is always great! Anyways, the food itself was very good. The wings were full of flavor, juicy, and crispy. A near perfect combo for wings! The bahn mi was also great! It was huge and full of fresh/crispy veggies and well seasoned meat. The bahn mi baguette was also delicious, crunchy yet soft as expected from that bread. Overall, had a very nice time, I do hope more people can come here! It wasn't very packed when I went but it deserves to be. Lastly, the price was great! For me/my SO, we spent around 45$ for 2 entrees and two sides.

Was in the area looking for something delicious and this popped up on Yelp. I must've missed the lunch rush because I am the only one here eating. Place is super cute and in a solid location. Got the Belly Classic banh mi and it is delicious. I like the menu as it is light and straight to the point. All beverages seem to be can or bottled but they have free serve yourself water. A little on the pricier side for a banh mi but I'd come back.

Bahn Mi sandwich was on point. Meat was flavorful, bread had a crisp but wasn’t like trying to eat razor blades, and pickled veggies gave just the right acid note. Go here, get a bahn mi, put it in your face.

Freshest of the fresh. First I had their bahn mi, and I thought well it don’t get any better than this. Then the pho darn near blew my eyebrows off with flavor. The food has quality to it and you actually feel refreshed after the meal, similar to home cooked meals. Everything from here has been stellar. The couple who owns the place were so nice and the service was amazing.
