We visited Dragon Lotus on the recommendation of 2 different people in West Kelowna. This is a family owned business and they are only open for dinner, so if you drive by and it looks like they are out of business, don't be deterred, they AREN'T! We are used to chinese food in LA, so we had high expectations and boy did they deliver!! We started off with a large order of Wor Wonton Soup. There were more Wontons than I have ever had in ANY wonton soup, ever! The shrimp and pork were so tender, and the broth was super flavorful. We also ordered Shanghai Thick Noodles w/Beef, Mix Vegetables w/Mushrooms, Ginger Beef, Prawns & Cashew Diced Vegetables, and Szechuan Chicken (which was the spiciest of all). Everything was SUPER fresh and the owner came to our table and made sure we had everything we needed and to make sure we were enjoying our meals. The vegetables were tender and not overcooked, the protein was cooked to perfection and the flavor was outstanding! If you are anywhere near Peachland, BC, you absolutely have to go to Dragon Lotus! It is OUTSTANDING!! Our service was also great and we found that the food was a great value as well.

My girlfriend and I have driven past the Dragon Lotus on our many road trips with always the promise to each other that we would stop in! Well we did last night and crossed the Dragon Lotus off of our bucket list.
It was earlier in the evening when we showed up and got lost in the view across from the restaurant. Fabulous view of the lake.
The restaurant wasn't very busy so we ordered our meals. Mannie had the Prawns, Snow Peas and Baby Corn along with an order of Chicken Chow Mein. I was a little bit more bolder in my choices...lol I asked for the Szechuan Prawns spicier and a side of white rice. When our dishes arrived we dug in! Mannie loved her meal and couldn't stop raving about it. Mine was so very delicious and very warm to the pallet.
As we sat there enjoying our meal and then relaxing after pigging out, the Dragon Lotus got very busy. Lots of people coming in to eat and many picking up take away orders. What a busy establishment!!! It was so wonderful to see all of the people supporting this local business.
To say the least, this is not our last meal here! We will be back but with much bigger appetites. Lol
Cheers
Mannie and Esther

Out of the way but worth the trip . Absolutely the best Chinese food ever. The Ginger beef is fantastic so incredible.
Everything we had was excellent we had five or six different dishes and ended up with leftovers for take out ,They even have a Buddha Beer that is quite nice.

This restaurant like many others since Covid has gone downhill. Sadly ! It was one of the better Asian but no longer. Each dish used to have a distinct taste and had plenty of small chopped vegetables. Today it’s very cheap looking with tons of large extras and less of the meats and fish. Too bad… quality down, prices up!

Warning if you read this and find the material rude and offensive don't be like Russellm460 and post it! 😜
Thank you Russellm460 for your "2 cents worth of review" as in Canada it's worthless and obsolete!😆
I'm not a Doctor however you might want to go get yourself a checkup as we are concern for your health!
First off usually after a camping trip one would be relaxed however seeing your post we feel you left yourself back at camp site! Second, you might want to check on your tongue as you order food and "every single dish" was Gross, Bland and Inedible Literally Zero Flavor. It seems you're the only one out of the few 100's of customers during whole day eating take out or dine in with that issue. Also you're not to eat the "dish" just the food inside the dish.🤪 You also might want to checkup on you high blood pressure
as even though we make mistakes we would not make $140 worth of mistakes by missing certain ingredients. Lastly, thank you for spending $140 and we are Happy Not to ever serve you Gross, Bland and Inedible Literally Zero Flavor "Dishes" unless you order under different name and phone number!
If you're reading this and you agree with Russellm460, I would highly recommend you also don't order from us as it be 100% Gross, Bland and Inedible Dish! that way it save us both money , time and headaches. To the customers that don't agree enjoy your Delicious Food and some what good read😉

Very disappointed with the customer service, or lack of. Ordered a dish with chicken, and it was inedible. There was a weird, funky taste and it was like eating rubber. We mentioned it to the waitress, who went to the kitchen for advice. Came back with a minimal discount off the dish that was not eaten. The reply was it is a new supplier. That doesn’t cut it as it appears they have had this issue before. We have recommended this spot to many and the food is quite good. Due to the lack of concern on the owner’s part, this will no longer be the case. Too bad!

This restaurant use to be amazing but now it is terrible. They are chinsing out with the prawns and meat with the dishes. Also with the chow mien the carrots were not peeled and mushrooms were old. Totally not going back as the prices are raised and they add a tip automatically due to covid. Only open from 4-8. Raking in the money but don't care about the quality or customer. VERY DISAPPOINTED. Think twice before ordering. When you order meat you get half a container. I hate to write this review as they were great last year. But now it is disgusting at the quality and size of portions. I took a pic of the rotten carrot if someone wants to see it.

WARNING DANGER!! Do Not Read If you don’t like humor, sarcasm or us replying and telling the truth!
Thank you for advising us with issues (Sarcasm as I’m only reading it now as you didn’t bother notifying us with any issues!) People that say “the restaurant was amazing” would have given me a call or email as then I could fix issue as we’re pretty nice people! Not sure what dish you ordered that we were chinsing out on Prawns and Meats as you didn’t specify, if you had order #33- special mixed vegies you get 6 prawns, 6 pieces chicken breast and 6 pieces BBQ pork (666 Devil of a dish :-P) and if you order #37- prawns mixed vegies you get 12 prawns. (Not sure how we Chinsed you on that unless you were thinking you deserved more which you could of asked for extra with extra cost). All our carrots are peeled however as we peel so many carrots in 1 day we might of accidentally missed one as we are humans too and we do make mistakes! (I’ll say this again We Are Not Perfect or Super People also please do send me picture of rotten carrot as I did ask now) Yes we did raise the prices which we did post all over restaurant in Big Black Ink on Paper, on websites and menu, also you didn’t have to order from us after reading all the posts. Guessing you are not in food business or do the grocery shopping as people that do regular shopping would know prices of food has gone up like crazy. Example 16 liter of Canola Oil used to be $20 as of date $44.49 and rising. (However I don’t think you care) Not sure if you really have eaten at our place before as some of the stuff you say seems totally weird ”hours 4-8 pm”. Our business hours have been like that for past 8 years and we change them during spring and winter and even shut down for few months out of the year (The Audacity and Nerve of us working so less and shutting down)! VERY DISAPPOINTED on your observation on Receipts as We Do Not I REPEAT We Do Not Automatically Add Covid Tip Any Where!(Please show Picture of Receipt with automatically added Covid Tip)(who has gone downhill pffft sarcasm). One More Time “ Wished you could of called or even emailed us however looks like you like to write more then get positive feedback ;-P” Sorry for long read until next weird post!
Positive Sarcasm Person Sam!

Yup, maybe even outside BC. Went again tonight after multiple good experiences here. Sabrina is very nice always. The food quality is simply a cut above here. The prices are just a little more or equal to other places in the area but theres a few things that set Dragon Lotus apart. First is the freshness. Meat and veggies here are of good fresh quality. Second is the taste. Ginger beef is great here. All the items I've ordered have been good and fresh. Not bland, a good flavor. I am no chef but I know when something tastes great and there isnt a place in the area that can compete. In fact, not a place anywhere. I brought my parents here from out of town and they loved it.
Location is fantastic as well. If I lived closer I'd be here all the time. Its worth the 40 min drive. Portions are good, you can order half portions too. We generally order up several items and none have been stickers or even just average. All have been quite good to excellent. I cant stand eating chinese from anywhere else in town as its never fresh and tasty like this place. Considering the quality the pricing is actually quite good.
I havent been to a place that pays attention to detail and experience like this for years. The character on the outside continues all the way to when you leave.

Definitely a great choice in Peachland area. Many locals stop by for takeout. I’ve read and we were told that this place has the best asian food in the valley. So true. We ordered the ginger beef and sweet & sour pork - we were speechless… every bite was so tasty. Thanks to the chef. The service was above and beyond - thanks Jordan for making our dinner so great!

It is take out only. Their website and phone message do not disclose that. We drove mikes to have dinner there only to be told “take out only”.
Fix your website and phone message so people don’t waste their time and gas driving out to have dinner

We were finally happy to be able to dine in at this restaurant again. The service is always excellent. The portions are certainly generous. The food was ok but I had to pay extra to eat with disposable chopsticks. To me, when I’m spending money in a restaurant and tipping generously I don’t expect to have to pay for proper cutlery.
Not sure we will be back.

This was a take out order. The order came really Fast and the staff is very friendly.
it was still warm when we arrived home in Penticton. The food was beyond being excellent. My husband is not a big eater, but my goodness he really enjoyed his dinner and ate far more than he usually does.
Thanks for everything Sam. We will be back for sure.

Great take-out and excellent food. No dining in currently. Ordered premium Cantonese Chow Mein, pork chop Suey, lemon chicken, ginger beef. Delicious flavours, large meat pieces, large shrimp. Check opening hours and days. Far above other Chinese restaurants in the Okanagan. When dining reopens try the sizzling beef.

Ate until we could not eat anymore. Our food was made fresh and you can tell. Sam, the owner, definitely shows a passion for his food that you rarely find. This passion results in exquisite Chinese dishes with so much flavour.
This is the only place I know that sells imported Buddha beer. I would recommend it even if you’re doing takeout since it perfectly pairs with the food.
