Lotus Garden

This Miracle Mile mainstay is a Thai classic in the Magic City. You don’t go here for bells and whistles—you go here for reliably good, traditional Thai food. For decor, expect glass-topped tables, giant fish tanks, red lighting and an overall demure ambiance. On the menu, find staples mixed with standout specials, like snapper and glass noodles cooked in wine and ginger, crispy volcano chicken in a mild chili sauce and fried frog legs with basil leaves and peppers.
