Our goal at Lotus is to serve the highest quality and best tasting Asian food you have ever eaten.  Using our 35 years of experience working with natural and organic foods, we have created unique recipes and sourced special ingredients,many that we grow on our farm, to bring you the authentic flavors of Northern Thailand, Burma, India and Indonesia cooked without the slew of artificial ingredients commonly used in all other Asian restaurants.
 
 

 We use Fresh herbs and spices to make all our dishes; NO bottled or canned sauces are used at Lotus
and we are 100% gluten free!

 

Being Hawaii's only Pan-Asian restaurant, with a great menu of dishes not offered anywhere else in Hawaii, and serving fresh and delicious food, we have built a huge following of clients just by word of mouth.  Our focus is on serving delicious cuisine, thats fresh and healthy

Lotus Cafe is Kona's only pan-Asian restaurant offering the freshest and tastiest food and beverages in Hawaii.

                                    

 

There is no secret to how we do this.  Our chef prepares our sauces and curries from scratch using mostly local and organic ingredients, many we grow ourselves.  We  feature many in-season fruits in our menu and weekly lunch and dinner specials.  Sample any of  the flavors of our own vegan gelato made fresh with organic coconut milk and local fruits.  Try our original Lotus coffee drinks sweetened with palm sugar or our super ginger lemonade and lilikoi nectar.  Taste some of our delicious healthy pastries (we usually have some raw vegan treats).  

 

See us every Saturday from 8 AM till Noon at the Keauhou Farmer's Market with original beverages, fresh juices, Mango Curry and other treats from the Lotus Cafe!
