😠 Curry is not good. 90% rice, hardly any veg and the sauce seemed old and was just heated in microwave. Sushi might be OK but avoid the curry unless they improve it. People often mention sushi, curry, chicken, sauce, quality, rice, Japanese,

    1* for 1* food hygiene whilst working with raw fish. Avoid if you want to avoid digestion issues. Also, recently started charging extra for soy sauce, ginger etc. not mentioning that while ordering! On some days don't let use 2for1 deal for hot food, while it is fine on other days.

    When the boss is in, there really is nothing they can't do for you here. Vegan/vegetarian options can be made to order (veggie chirashi don). A recent menu update means there is now also a tofu curry option. It's impressive given the tiny space they operate from. The boss also helpfully gives you info sometimes like Tuna is better for you than Salmon, for example. I'd say the work ethic and service mindset of the boss is slow to trickle down to all the staff. Maybe they are mostly students who have needed to be trained in the service industry from scratch? It doesn't matter though, I am just over the moon to have a sushi option in Bradford. FINALLY!

    I go here at least twice a week to get a take away lunch. I love their tofu noodle soup and they have lots of other good things to eat too.

    Visited the Bradford store and had the Beef Teriyaki one day and few days later, I had the Salmon Teriyaki. Both visits, the staff were on point and the food were amazing. Definitely recommend trying the food here and the other cuisines on offer. Great experience

    It was a great brunch for me. I had spicy chicken ramen and California sushi roll and it cost less than 10 pounds! It is in the Broadway shopping mall, in front of the food court. Another price-worthy eatery. Oh the wasabi and sauce is chargeable to prevent wastages.

    The sushi is just so good, i would eat there everyday if u could. i love the spicy mayo and teriyaki sauce combo (pls never change this) amazing quality & flavour, i wish there where larger sets for the chicken sushi rolls. If you’ve never had sushi before i would recommend you start eating chicken sushi, then move up to more advanced ones (salmon, caviar etc..) Also don’t go get sushi from here and rate them poorly if you’re not a sushi eater and if it’s your first time. the first time eating sushi is always iffy, it’s like trial and error, explore your pallet. Please EXPAND The lotus bar 😭 it’s honestly better than any sushi restaurants i’ve been to !! & eco friendly :) Customer Service : 5/5 Sushi : 5/5 Freshness : 5/5 (you can see them make it behind the counter) Friendliness : 5/5

    You can a decent sushi from there, one box cost between 4.5 pounds to 5.5 pounds, Japanese curry is Fantastic, other curries are acceptable as well.

    Best Japanese takeaway in all of Bradford loved the service and the food is amazing! Food is fresh and made directly in front of your very eyes. Price is fair for portion, in my opinion Definitely my no1 place to eat out :) Teriyaki is great, my favourite has to be the vegan japanese curry and the sushi

    Fab food and extra friendly staff. Credit to goes to the male and female worker you had working here tonight. Both were super nice and helpful ♥️

    Little lotus has become my NEW FAVOURITE place to go for pre work lunch in Bradford, finding good quality yet adequately priced sushi is so hard and yet this little business delivers.. the portion sizes are more than generous and everything is made fresh to order if not available on the side! They also appear to do fresh ramen pots which I have yet to try but they will be going on my to do list, all in all if you really like Japanese food and want some too quality sushi I would HIGHLY recommend you to give this place a go!

    Really delicious pumpkin katsu and tofu curries. Well priced, tasty food, highly recommended!

    I've been eating here a while but just recently, the quality of the chicken has left me feeling quite sick after eating it. I normally get the Chicken Teriyaki or Salmon bowl but the chicken is really poor quality now, grissly and tastes like grease.

    My favourite place for fresh sushi

    I’ve been a loyal customer at Lotus since Broadway has been open. Myself and my daughters have always had the Japanese curry (chicken one) It’s upsetting to say we WON’T be going back no longer. I understand the price has gone up and that isn’t the problem, problem is that they have opt for chicken thigh in their Japanese curry instead of chicken breast and there’s no vegetable. It tasted awful as it tasted like the chicken wasn’t cooked in the sauce and was chucked in. We ordered 3 and all 3 went to waste. Not impressed at all.. for £5.79 I expect quality not low standard.

    WOW! This place has become a personal favourite of mine in the last few months. The staff are lovely and attentive every visit and the food is delicious. If you visit the chicken curry is gorgeous and is filled with lots of veggies and the chicken is so tender 😍 Portions could be bigger don’t mind paying extra but it is a fab place for a quick lunch stop

    Me and my sister have been a loyal customer at this place since before it opened. I used to get a large japanese curry for less than a fiver. I know prices have gone up but I went in and paid £5.79 and got the smallest tub I have ever seen. I refunded and didnt take the food. I Loved the food but I am not gonna eat from there anymore. That's extortionate to charge almost 6 quid for a flat small tub. After response. The large tub was more than 750ml just a few months ago

    I buy food from here quite often and I'm almost always disappointed, but I still hope and will buy again . I buy there Japanese curry with rice, they serve 80% rice and 20% curry without vegetables, I like carrots and potatoes, but it's never there, it always makes me angry. I told them several times to load 50% rice and 50% curry , but always I have a lot of rice left , it's embarrassing for me to go there and ask them for a little add curry sauce. Today, I got a bucket of raw rice, potatoes and carrots were not there, it all went into the trash. The new bowls are smaller . The price went up but the quality went down. I lost the desire to give them another chance.

    Situated in the food Court in broadway, so always full of groups of kids and incredibly loud and noisy. They now charge for sauce which they didn't used to and can be quite abrupt about it but the food is lovely

    I used to be a HUGE fan of this place,everytime I was in Broadway the Little Lotus was my first to go to place if I was hungry! But the last time it got me disappointed greatly,in my Salmon avocado poke bowl I discovered a bloody SLUG in wakame. I wish I would of made a picture of it but I was that disgusted that I just throw it all away. Never buying from this place ever again!
