This is some fantastic Thai food.  This is basically the ultimate hole-in-the-wall with awesome food.\n\nIt's located in a shady strip mall on Sahara, near Maryland, actually really near the Green Door, if that tells you anything about the neighborhood.  Look it up.\n\nThe food beyond makes up for the area, though.  We shared the spicy Thai wings, which were amazing.  I had the roasted duck curry with a heat level of 6 (out of 10), and it was like I died and went to curry heaven.  Le sigh.\n\nI'm a big fan of all things spicy, and I thought the 6 was just about perfect.  Hot enough to make me sit up and notice, but not so hot I couldn't taste the delicious curry and duck.  I could've probably handled a 7 or 8, but I would've had tears in my eyes.\n\nHands down, this is some of the best Thai food I've had.  Ever.  And I eat a lot of Thai food.\n\nOddly enough, they actually have a great wine list, so if you're interested in that, it's a cool experience.   It makes dinner a bit pricey (for Thai food), but it's a nice addition.\n\nI can't say enough good about Lotus, just go and enjoy!
