Yepeeee so far staying on Calgary i found the best Japanese food,
There place is so accommodating, the food is really good moreover i loved the background music. its pure Japanese anime songs plus free pocky!!
Its just makes me sad since they don't have branch nearby on my place but i totally recommended this place and this is now my fav. Japanese resto
One of the best sushi places in the City. These guys do an excellent job at ensuring only quality hits your plate. Never had a bad experience and food always arrives quickly even when they are busy. They also make a really good bowl of Ramen.
Its a great affordable place to go in the SW. The other sushi place 10mins away is good but they've been increasing their prices every year, that its $60 for a family of 4, two adults and a 3&4yr old. Here we can spend $40 and enjoy it just as much, with pretty much the same menu options. Plus the staff is fantastic too. Even if you don't live in the neighborhood, its worth the extra 10mins to go to Li-ao :-)
Love this place, tired numerous sushi restaurants in Calgary, nothing compares: large portions (even sashimi), inexpensive (for sushi), fresh, taste great, friendly service. I recommend trying again if u had a bad experiance both for pick up and eat in. I am lucky I live in bridlewood or I would drive a great distance for this place. I have had a few experiances that were not seller but I have with fine dining also. Give this place a try! Hope they dont change the high quality and complementary roll/dumpling provided almost every time we have ordered.
Amazing sushi place, great prices and friendly staff. I highly recommend this sushi place. Fish is always fresh and the lobster roll is one of my favorites.
The Nolan Hill location : great sushi restaurant near my house. I tried sushi once in Edmonton and didn't really like it. I decided to give sushi another try, and they didn't let me down at all; good size portion, fresh, and delicious! I will go back there for sure.
Moving from Vancouver I had my doubts we would find decent let alone great sushi in Calgary. But its not just about the food. This place goes above and beyond. We made a large order and it happened that one of our items was missed. I called the restaurant to let them know and instead of having us come back to pick it up they offered to deliver it right to our house. Mistakes happen its how we recover from our mistakes that counts. Their recovery was flawless.
Been going to the south location for years now it's always great service trendy atmosphere and of course awesome sushi.
Great people, awesome food!!!! Enjoy every minute from the moment we walk in to the moment we leave!!! Fresh, tasty and just can't say enough.
We came as a party of 12 (5 kids and 7 adults)and the staff were very accommodating. After we were all seated, drinks had been served, and had submitted our order, they brought us 3 orders of complementary deep fried stuffed crab dumplings! DELICIOUS! And then our sushi orders came out soon afterward and we were served generous slices of sashimi and nigiri sushi. AMAZING! And to top it all off, at the end of our meal, the server came out and offered everyone at our table complementary boxes of Pocky sticks!! OUTSTANDING SERVICE AND QUALITY OF FOOD! We will definitely return soon.
Great Sushi! Great Service!!! We like this place because its really clean kitchen and good food!
Besides being close to home, they are fantastic and always greet with a smile! I am so happy I tried this place, one of my close favorites. I love the Hot California Rolls!
The staff were friendly and accommodating. The order came fast.
The sushi was good and priced reasonably about 50 dollars for what I included in the pictures
Happy to support a local restaurant ☺️
Tasty, fresh, affordable, friendly. I'll be back! Loved that they had low sodium soya sauce. Other guests were engaging in fun conversation with the gentleman server, they sounded like regulars who enjoy coming back for the food AND excellent service.
We always go back to this restaurant when we crave for Japanese food. Food is always fresh and tasty. Staff are always friendly!
Great food, taste good and serving is great. Service was not impressive, but I have no complaints. Overall, good sushi place.
Always really good and fresh sushi. I think they have one of the best mango rolls. Also their female dragon roll has this amazing smokey taste that you don't find at other places.
Always great quality food. I have been coming to this sushi place since I was 15. I’m 21 now and I have yet to taste a dish I didn’t like from Li Ao. The staff are friendly and accommodating. It’s always very clean inside and great to invite multiple friends to. The parking is good. My favourite dishes are the salmon sashimi, the takoyaki, the yam tempura special, and the cheesy crab bombs. Highly recommend to those interested to check this place out!
