White Lotus Restaurant

My boyfriend and I stopped by after seeing some of the pictures in the reviews. This place did not disappoint, do not let the appearance fool you. It's a one woman show and she is killing it. If you are in a hurry or are just impatient then don't stop here. She cooks everything fresh to order right in front of you and the ingredients are freshly cut, well worth waiting for. Peppers, onions, broccoli and meat all looked great as she was cooking. We had Thai noodle soup, pepper steak and honey Thai chicken. The food and the conversation/her personality was great. Definitely has a mom or grandma's kitchen feel.

Beautiful location in Dayton! I love Thai food and right in front of me, the sweetest lady cooked my order to perfection. It was served medium hot which still made me sweat! Delicious Thai iced tea and a Coke to drink. Very small but intimate place to eat! Highly recommended ????

Amazing place, but set your expectations: It's a one woman operation, and she moves at her own pace. Don't come if you're in a rush, and don't call your order in (she probably won't make it until you arrive). But if you're in the mood to sit at a lunch counter and watch her cook amazing food while casually commenting on the street traffic, this is the place for you. I got the Chicken Chili with Basil (aka Pad Krapow/grapow), and it was excellent. Had a smoker flavor than other versions I've had. Also: The spice level is on the upper end. Her medium is higher than the hottest available at many Thai places.
