New Minas: Lotus Thai

Lotus Thai on Commercial Street in New Minas is a reliable spot for fresh, tasty Thai food. It’s a small, family-run place with quick service and friendly staff who make you feel welcome as soon as you walk in.

The weekday lunch specials are a big draw—served from noon to 2:30pm, they include your choice of main dish (like Pad Thai, Red Curry, or Basil Stir Fry), a side of rice (if the dish doesn’t already come with noodles), and a crispy spring roll. It’s a solid portion at a reasonable price, perfect if you’re working nearby or just want a quick, satisfying lunch.

Beyond lunch, the full menu covers all the Thai classics: Green Curry, Pad See Ew, Tom Yum Soup, and more. You can customize most dishes by choosing your protein and spice level. They also have vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options clearly marked.

The space is cozy and casual, and even when it’s busy, the staff keeps things moving with a smile.
