Li's Asian is just alright.
The place is conveniently located in a South Tempe Safeway Plaza, it's clean and the dishes are affordable.
The food is meh.
I had never been in until my Dad got out of the hospital for a major heart surgery and finally got his appetite back ... For takeout Chinese!
*Food police, CHILL OUT. His surgeon and cardiologist said it was OK on this particular occasion as Pops was barely eating since he got home.*
Some of the things we've tried:
1) Hot and Sour Soup
2) Mixed Fried Rice
3) Orange Chicken
4) Egg Roll
Three of these items, specifically the Orange Chicken, was swimming in an abundance of oil.
Pops and my brother mentioned the Mixed Fried Rice was uber salty. The rice also looked like rice at Mexican restaurants. Odd indeed.
Pretty bland overall, not what one would expect from a neighborhood place like this.
Bummer, because on both occasions the counter staff and gal that took my phone order were very polite and customer service oriented.
Maybe I'll pop into Lis Asian again in the future, but wasn't memorable enough for it to be on my short list of takeout places that come to mind.
