Our servers or bartender are always friendly! We enjoy the salted edamame, the potstickers, spring rolls & lettuce wraps. Meals: we enjoy chicken pad Thai, chicken fried rice, spicy chicken, the blackened tuna, & the filet. Sushi: crazy tuna, Dynamite, & shrimp tempura are delicious! It is a lively place! The bar area can be loud depending on the usual crowd but I can still have a conversation with my husband or friends. read more

The first time I went to J Liu I wasn't very impressed. I came back a couple of times and I will say they have definitely improved in terms of the food. Service has always been great and I appreciate the parking lot they have, but there's plenty of free parking options all around. It's interesting considering they have Asian food to American to Italian. I've only ever tried the Asian and it's not bad. It's overpriced in my opinion, but the atmosphere is nice. I'll need to try non Asian items. The tiramisu is good though! read more

Continues to deteriorate. When we came here in 2007-2010 the menu was spot on, food was always good, hot and service was fantastic. Since they opened the Worthington location it's like he has forgotten about this location. The menu is subpar, the food is even worse and service leaves a lot to be desired. We watched the staff ask a customer to move tables so they could accommodate a large group, which he did willingly, but when he got to the other table, the little light wasn't working, and he was obviously working on some paperwork and a map, and the waiter didn't even offer to get a light that worked.So I gave him ours. Then and only then did the waiter get the hint. Salad came and the level of dressing was basically non existent. We ordered lettuce wraps, crab rangoon, spring rolls, and 14oz strip. I sound like complain, complain complain.But it really was not that good. The spring rolls were great. Crab rangoon had to be sent back because I believe the crab was bad. The lettuce wraps were so dry and tasteless it's almost unbelievable. I'm gonna take it home and add some spice to it and eat it later. I don't know what kind of rub you're putting on the steak, but it made it so sweet that it was almost inedible. The potatoes that came with the steak have really great flavor but they're old so they're really dry inside. And unfortunately, the level of weight staff here isnt what it used to be. Am I expecting better?Absolutely?This is Jason's for goodness sakes, and it's just not as good as it used to be. We tried it a few times over the past six years.And this will probably be our last time. That breaks my heart, because this is where we came for our first date, and this is where we came for him to propose and we came for our anniversary for many years. But it's just not worth the money for a subpar meal that I can make at home for a third of a cost. read more

I've eaten here a few times now and it's always great service for my carry out. I ordered the fried rice lunch portion. It came with 3 protein choices. I got double shrimp and chicken. Mine was gluten free and they said they were careful about cross contamination. It was $15 and came with a lot of food! This delicious meal makes for leftover breakfast tacos! read more

Delicious food tonight with excellent service. Mixed appetizer plate. The Crab Rangoon is outstanding!! I could have eaten 15 of those guys! Delicious, fresh poke bowl. Served with two sauces. Rice was perfectly cooked and the tuna was fresh and a huge portion! This quiet little place gets overlooked but it's certainly worth your time. Oh, and an awesome outside. read more

was not impressed with the new menu selections! There was maybe two items from old menu. the spring rolls were mushy, no vegetables, tasteless. Not to mention is was extremely loud! Could not hear the couple we were sitting across from in booth! Will not be going back or recommending. read more

Their happy hour is amazing! Great drink specials and so much yummy food. We ordered almost one of everything but our favorite was the avocado and the dumplings. Everything we had was delicious though. We also tried the old fashioned and the Pomegranate martini which also did not disappoint. Definitely worth the visit, especially during happy hour. read more

Decided to try for my husbands and I anniversary. The restaurant was empty on a Saturday night but we did have an early reservation right around the time the restaurant opened. The staff were nice and friendly. The lighting in the restaurant was dim, but nice. Staff dressed up for Halloween and music played in the background. Now on to the food... The dumplings were great! We ordered two orders. We had the dragon roll, the shrimp could have been crunchier , husband wasn't a fan of how chewy the texture was. Still good. The Mongolian beef and white rice were seasoned good, nice size portion. You can choose from white rice or fried rice. Can't go wrong with cheesecake! Everything was great! I would definitely go again! read more

Last Sunday we tried something new. (My husband went there around Christmas time with coworkers.) Very good. Cute place, very small and quaint with a relaxing feel. We ordered the Brussel sprouts for an appetizer and Omgoodness were they so good!! Amazing!! My husband had the hot and sour soup but I didn't try it. He said it was good. I got the roasted chicken, potatoes and broccolini and my husband got the beef pad Thai. Both were very good. The chicken was so tender and juicy and the pad Thai had very good flavor!! We would go back again!! Our service was fast and very nice!! read more

Held a rehearsal dinner here for 21 people. We were offered many entree choices. Many compliments from our guests as to the food quality and quantity. Service and accommodations were outstanding. Anything we asked for was made available. We will definitely be returning. Scott the manager was excellent, as was the serving staff. read more

What a great little restaurant in downtown Dublin, Ohio. The building has lots of charm and is a cozy, quite restaurant. I love the Mongolian Beef at this place. This dish comes with tenderloin, scallions, onion and crispy rice noodles with a delicious spicy brown sauce. I also recommend getting the fried rice with this. It's a small up charge for the fried rice, but worth every penny. There is limited parking around the restaurant but there is a big parking lot located just behind the restaurant. Great food and great service. read more

Dan the man! He has a way of making people feel welcomed after a long day and looking for a place to unwind. The Mongolian Beef plate is highly recommended as a meal is filling and tastes great. It's nicely done inside and relaxing. read more

My pad Thai is "extra vegetables". There are hardly any veggies as all and they're all massively overcooked and mushy. Everything we ordered lacked freshness but had really good flavors. This is a GREAT location, gorgeous patio, and I love having an ethnic food option in Dublin (even though they still have all the Dublin classics on the menu too god forbid the people of Dublin skip chicken parm on a night out). I think another issue is they basically have two menus, Asian and Dublin, I think they need to pick a single menu and go with it. The Asian side is great if they freshen everything up. Great staff also. read more

J Liu of Dublin - Pad Thai - New American Near Me - Dublin, Ohio

Service was a bit slow, but not due to lack of effort! The lady that was taking care of my table was running her butt off, but she could have been duplicated to make the experience 5 star. Slow to take an order, slow to follow up, slow to get the check. The food, on the other hand, was quick and hot. Started with a cup of the lobster bisque. Very thick, very rich, little light on the crustacean. Also, very hot, extremely hot. I'm not going to complain, because if I do complain about a soup, it's because it isn't hot enough. This stuff burned the roof of my mouth! For dinner I had the blackened tuna over something like coconut rice (whatever that is). Regardless, I'm here to tell you the tuna was the best I ever had! Thick cut, rare, tender as all get out. Outstanding. The rice was topped with avocado and crab meet. Also had a slight spice/wasabi flavor to it. The spice made it happen! Washed everything down with their house Chardonnay, which I also very much enjoyed. read more

Glad I read the recent reviews vs just looking at the stars. I was worried about 3.5* but after reading most recent reviews I felt better. The food was great. The Pad Thai was very good with well balanced flavors. We had the Mongolian beef, California roll and chicken. All were very good. The service and atmosphere were great. read more

I went here for dinner with my husband on Friday night. The J Liu in Dublin was booked, so we opted for a reservation here as it was wide open. I ordered a cocktail that had strawberry purée (can't remember the name), it was awful! It tasted like straight liquor. My husband ordered a happy hour lemonade drink and also said his was very strong. That is after the server told him it can only be ordered at the bar?! Ha! We asked if we can have it if we paid full price and sure enough the drink showed up. We had the crab Rangoon which was very very good! We also both ordered a cup of lobster bisque soup which was very good despite not having much of any lobster chunks in it. For our entrees my husband ordered the chicken parm and I ordered their salmon. When I tell you the food was bland! My goodness! I never reach for the salt and pepper but had to. The broccoli was under cooked, the salmon although cooked nice had absolutely no flavor. The coconut rice was alright, one bit had flavor and the next didn't. My husband wasn't impressed with the chicken parm and again it was very bland, he ate his though. Service was ok, maybe it was the fact that we didn't order Asian food here? But if you have something on the menu, do it right. We will never return here or the Dublin location for that matter. Overly priced and not good. read more

I almost forgot about this place. Tucked away in the trendy Bridge Park area of old Dublin, is one of the OG's in Asian fusion cuisine. Unlike their Worthington restaurant, this location has a more humble facade. A small unassuming building next to the new Fox in the Snow. I've gone to dinner here before and was never really that impressed. It's always been decent, but nothing memorable in atmosphere or food flavor. The menu is also a little bit confusing to me because it offers classic Asian dishes along with confusing things like Chicken Parmesan? There's an obvious identity complex here lol. Anyway, our friends decided to go for a happy hour birthday celebration here, and I have to say I was surprisingly impressed!! I think mainly for the HH value this place brings. And I think the secret's out. The place was packed on this particular Thursday evening. Their happy hour had a great selection for each price point category, especially the food. My favorite was their lettuce wraps. The portion size was large enough for two people. Everything came out fresh and very flavorful too. My second favorite was their brussels sprouts, which had a nut topping that added a lot of texture. The crab rangoon and sushi rolls were good too. Unfortunately, the entrée was the only disappointment. Very underwhelming and bland. The fried rice was just missing that high heat wok fire, & definitely missing alot of seasoning. However, our polite and friendly waiter made up for anything lacking. He was attentive, but not overwhelmingly so. The ambiance was also intimate enough for conversation but also lively enough where our large party didn't need to be hushed. Overall though, it was a fun evening and this may be a HH go to in Dublin for me in the future, especially for their lettuce wraps! read more

I've been coming here regularly since it opened as Jason's bac. We have always loved the food, service and atmosphere. One of my favorite dishes of any restaurant in Columbus is their spicy chicken, an excellent take on the traditional general tso's chicken. The restaurant recently changed owners and in my opinion the quality has definitely improved. read more

Today was my first time having food from this restaurant. My husband eats here from time to time with clients. Today, He brought me home a Poké bowl. I ordered the salmon poké thinking it was raw. When my husband brought it home, it was cooked. I don't eat cooked salmon, and my husband was under the impression it was raw because the menu does not denote cooked. I called in asking if they could do any kind of raw fish instead, and they said their tuna is raw. They agreed to make me a new bowl with tuna, which I really did not expect, but was so nice of them! The bowl was absolutely delicious and we will definitely be frequenting this restaurant!! They made a customer for life! read more

Great little spot! They have a variety of options and everything we had was delicious. The Dynamite roll was my favorite thing on the menu. Potstickers were stuffed to the brim and the spicy chicken was easy to split between 2 people. Can't wait to go back and sit on the patio in warmer weather and try more dishes. Also, Grace, our server was wonderful. All around a great experience. read more

Food is always delicious and wait time is next to nothing. Great service and mild noise level. Even on a Friday night.

I had been wanting to try this place knowing it was a Dublin staple and I really enjoyed our experience. The restaurant itself is outdated, and if you are seated at one of the free standing tables they are very tightly packed together, but luckily we got a booth. They have an excellent wine menu and we got a great bottle of red. We started with an order of the dynamite roll and I think this may have been the best sushi I've ever had. My fiancé and I split the chicken pad tai and the chicken Parmesan. I personally liked the chicken Parmesan better but both were delicious. They were also severely under staffed but our waitress was excellent and worked her tail off so that we wouldn't be able to tell. I would come back here for sure, especially to try more of that delicious sushi. read more

Was great for 5y, then good for 5y, now hit or miss. Service has always been weak point but now worse. Food was strong point but they changed/downgraded supplier ... or have worse cooks .. as food now hit or miss. Better service in bar area but you must endure the "regulars" bar flies often racist and old white guy commentary, cursing at drunk volume. So.....probably stop going here as I can get better Ahi and service across the bridge now. read more

J Liu is a great place if you're looking for good quality Asian cuisine. It's a nicer restaurant so the menu is a little pricier, but also not overly priced. They offer a wide range of Asian dishes like poke, fish, sushi, and Thai. They also have some Italian pasta dishes on the menu as well. As far as drinks go, they have a good selection of wines, beer, and also a craft cocktail list. I ordered the spicy margarita and they do not hold back on the spice. It was a little too much for my liking. Their sushi and potstickers are very good and make for delicious appetizers that are easy to share with the table. The tuna poke bowl on the entree menu was the highlight for me, it was amazing. The tuna was so fresh and really just made the bowl. I ordered mine with rice but you can also choose to order it with greens. It was served with avocado, mango salsa, edamame, etc. - all which added to the great flavor & texture of this bowl. The service was spectacular, our server was very attentive and made sure we were always taken care of. The owner even checked on us at one point to make sure everything was to our liking. Parking can be a bit of a pain if you're going to the Dublin location as their lot isn't that big and they tend to stay pretty busy. But overall it was a great experience and I will definitely be going back in the future! read more

OUTSTANDING and DELICIOUS FIND for two weary travelers driving coast to coast. Had lobster bisque all of the globe and this was the best! (Lots of lobster and not fishy tasting- pure seafood creamy heaven). The Lettuce Wraps were also TASTY, filling, light and refreshing. The Poke Bowl was also delicious, healthy, had variety, and was very fresh and filling. Angie, our waitress was friendly, fast and informative! Outstanding eats! Thank You! read more

Just had the Sunday brunch buffet that I think we have all missed since Covid. The food was good...but I think what has always set this buffet aside from all the others is the choice options.....you can get "breakfast" food anywhere.....I'm coming for the Asian dishes.....please bring back the Lo Mein, crab Rangoon, shrimp and grits and omelet station. The chicken fingers and fries I understand are for kids probably but I would set those aside from the buffet. I do like the set up in the bigger room. Price was $55 for 2 people....it would be worth that like I said if you bring back more of the lunch options (lo mein, crab, omelet). We will definitely be back but probably not every Sunday like usual. read more

I have not been here in awhile and will always come back as I love the Asian flair to the menu. However, I just didn't understand why our service was a little slow as there was lots of staff people and our waiter was even training a new person. All that staff was great to see but I just felt like it took a long time to get each course or beverages. It just felt like there was something out of sync, it's hard to explain. read more

J Liu is another nice restaurant in Dublin. It sounds like this is Chinese but it's not. Maybe they have some Asian items, but it seems more like an Italian restaurant. It has a menu of good cocktails. They also have good small plates for happy hour. I had a Royale martini. It's about $7 at happy hour. This was pretty good tasting. It was strong, as it should be. This went well with the small plate that was on special. I had the hummus appetizer. It's about $5 at happy hour. This came with lots of crispy pita bread, which was a generous portion. Food is good. Parking anywhere around here sucks. There's a public lot but that fills quickly. read more

My wife and I recently moved back to Dublin after about 10 years away. We decided to go back to J Liu for dinner. For the most part it was fine. I ordered a Diet Pepsi and my wife had a water. At the end of the meal I asked for the check. It was then I noticed they had charged me $10.50 for the Diet Pepsi. I asked if there was a mistake and she said no that they charged for each refill (I had two). Also each glass was about 80% ice. I think it is pretty crazy to charge for refills in a town where no one else does! Also, if you are going to charge for refills at least you should let the customer know. Pretty unacceptable in my book, so everyone be aware. PS I bought three 12 packs at Giant Eagle for $12. read more

Went for a friend's bday Saturday night. Had a dill cocktail at the bar and it was DELICIOUS. I tried the crab rangoons and chicken lettuce wraps and they were both also really good.

My family and I had a disappointing experience here due to the unprofessional and rude behavior of the host. Upon arrival, we were left standing awkwardly at the entrance as there was no one to greet or guide us to a table. After a few minutes, the host finally appeared but instead of offering a polite greeting, she seemed uninterested in helping. Her attitude made the entire experience unpleasant from the start. Luckily the dinner was good and the music/atmosphere helped the situation. Will not be back. read more
