According to some customer reviews, Red Lotus Bistro has improved under new management, with Victor at the helm. One reviewer stated that the food has "never tasted so good" and the service is "top-notch"—fast, friendly, and welcoming. They highly recommended the Pon Pon Chicken, describing it as perfectly breaded chicken glazed with a sweet and spicy Chinese BBQ plum sauce that was absolutely delicious and packed with flavor. This reviewer suggested Red Lotus Bistro is a "must-visit" in Salt Lake City for both Chinese and Vietnamese cuisine.

However, another customer had a more mixed experience. While they found the Pon Pon Chicken to be good, noting its mix of sweet and savory flavors and the right amount of crunchiness, they were less impressed with other dishes. The garlic wings were described as fried with pressed garlic added afterward and not very inventive. The yakisoba was considered "nothing to write home about," being salty with a sauce lacking depth. This reviewer did find the fresh squeezed lemonade to be "pretty good." Overall, they felt the experience was not very impressive.

Red Lotus Bistro is better than ever under new management with Victor at the helm. The food has never tasted so good, and the service is top-notch—fast, friendly, and welcoming. I tried the Pon Pon Chicken, a perfectly breaded chicken glazed with a sweet and spicy Chinese BBQ plum sauce, and it was absolutely delicious. Every bite was packed with flavor! If you’re in #SaltLakeCity, Red Lotus Bistro is a must-visit for incredible Chinese & Vietnamese cuisine. Highly recommend!

The food here was just okay. I got the garlic wings, yakisoba, and pon pon chicken. The garlic wings were fried, and a bunch of pressed garlic is pressed over them after the fact. They weren't very inventive with them. The yakisoba was nothing to write home about. It was salty, and the sauce had no depth. The pon pon chicken was good, a mix of sweet and savory. The crunchiness was just the right texture. I also had fresh squeezed lemonade that was actually pretty good. Overall, though, this wasn't very impressive.

This was my first time here and it did NOT disappoint. The food was amazing and our waitress was so kind and actively attended to our needs. Last week, my friends were visiting in town from Vegas and they couldn't agree more that this food was amazing! We had a little of everything.. the walnut shrimp, seasame chicken, pho and more!

Great place can’t believe I haven’t been there before! Service was great, very attentive. We tried all their wings and they were all delicious and full of flavor. Had their signature cocktail, which was very refreshing on a hot day. Would like to go back sometime for lunch next.

All round great place to eat and super chill. Relaxing vibes, delicious fresh Asian cuisine and they have some good selections on beer and alcohol especially from Asia. I did my first sake bomb here during lunch with a friend and it was definitely an experience. Their prices are good for a cozy spot downtown salt lake and the food was absolutely delicious! Definitely going back sometime. They do events and cute little things like that.
