Li-Ao Sushi, located in the Shoppes of Bridlewood, offers fresh sushi and authentic Japanese dishes. With their second location found in Nolan Hill Blvd NW, you really got to try Li-Ao if you haven't done so already!
Li-Ao Sushi is not new to me, I used to be a regular customer a couple years back and now I occasionally drop by from time to time. I've notice a lot of changes with Li-Ao over the years and the biggest change that caught my eye was their logo out in front. I'm not sure when they changed it but it does look fresher than before!
Yes the prices are cheap but the plating, the portion and the flavour packs a punch. Upon seating at a booth you'll receive complementary deep fried tuna gyoza, where else can you get a complementary sample? No where!
Make sure you can finish what you ordered, I accidentally went a little overboard but hey it was actually worth it. Now I can describe in detail every single dish that was ordered but I rather not and let the pictures do all the talking, all I can say is the plating, portion and flavour does make a big difference.
If I were to criticize a particular dish it would be the AAA Steak Combo, why? My only concern is the meat to rice ratio is waay off. Lots of rice but not enough steak to have per serving unless the ratio balances so it would me an equal of rice to meat to vegetable but nevertheless it is still a good dish either way!
I would recommend Li-Ao to everyone and would differently come back again in the near future. Li-Ao is the number one go to for a non AYCE sushi restaurant in the Deep South.
