Lotus Hot Pot & Grill

We absolutely love this place. It is a little drive for us as we live in eastern Jackson county but it is so worth it! Best hot pot in KC hands down. So many choices for everyone and a great staff. I personally love the mushroom and tofu options. As they have tofu that you can’t regularly find any where else in the KC market. I hope you enjoy it as well.

The food here is delicious & so fun to experiment with! Every time we come we change up our order a little bit. We start with the herbal broth & have found our favorite meats to be chicken, shrimp, & imitation crab. We really love the house clear noodles, lotus root & potatoes as well. The sauces we put into our individual bowls: hoisin, oyster, minced garlic & sesame oil. This is a beautiful restaurant with great food and a really neat experience, the kids even love it.

My first time here; will definitely come back! We tried both house special spicy broth and seafood broth; love them both. Wanted to give 5 stars but their dipping sauces that we picked were all awful will try different ones on my next visit. Our friend suggested to bring your own dipping sauce which fortunately we believed her. If you need extra sauce will cost .50$/ cup. (Photos added from the second trip) we went there again. Drove 30 minutes to get here lol but we love it so much.

Really great food. We got the split pot with two veggies, two meats, and mushrooms and it was definitely enough to feed 6 and it was just 2 of us. The house special spicy was extremely spicy the owner said 5-6 spiciness the waitress said a 12. The flavor was great but too spicy for us and my husband loves spicy, we mixed a little of our mushroom broth in the bowls to even it out. For 2 people a procedure pricier outing but for 4 very reasonable. We took home like 4 servings. Also the spring rolls are huge, great peanut sauce

Delicious! The establishment was very clean, including the restrooms. Even though they were short staffed, we had great service. Fun, casual atmosphere and a great experience. We love the spicy and mushroom broths with brisket. We drive 45 minutes each way to dine here and have never regretted it.
