Tucked away in a strip mall in a seedy section of Las Vegas, Lotus of Siam doesn't look very inviting from the outside. But once you walk in, a cavernous, buzzing space packed with hungry patrons unveils itself and you realize that you've just entered somewhere very popular and special. Legendary for their authentic and tasty Thai dishes, Lotus of Siam is sure to please your ravenous belly -- you really can't go wrong with anything on the menu.

We tried the meatless "Egg Rolls" which were extra crispy and served with a homemade sweet and sour sauce. Next was the "Crispy Mussel Omelet" which had a chewy glutenous rice texture that complemented the crispy fried mussels and snappy green onions and bean sprouts hiding underneath. Make sure you generously pour the spicy sweet sauce that accompanies the omelet over the entire dish! The shrimp "Pad Thai" and "Crab Meat Fried Rice" were also fresh and packed with flavor!

Get in line, Lotus of Siam is worth the wait!
