    Serve was great but food was not as good as years in the past. Seemed like lower quality food (I had chicken)

    Food was great. Wait for food was terrible. Prob 45 minutes while others ate and left. Same long wait for dessert. Place is great, food was great, wait was terrible. Not sure if this is the norm or just a bad night. Was there over two hours total and ordered almost immediately after being seated.

    J. Liu Restaurant & Bar of DublinResponded on May 15, 2023Just a bad night, and please accept my apologies for it. We do hope we do get to see you again soon so that we can make up for it.

    J. Liu Restaurant & Bar of DublinResponded on May 15, 2023As we are no longer affiliated with our younger sister location from Worthington, our hosting staff should have informed you of the menu and the changes. Please accept our apologies. We hope we get a chance to make it up to you.

    Unfortunately, Mother's Day brunch was not well done at J. Liu. Service was poor. There was not clear communication with the wait staff and kitchen on what the menu entailed. I was with small children and our food took an unreasonably long time to come out. Food was wrong; service was poor. I have been to J.Liu for lunch and dinner many times and it has been pleasant and consistent. This brunch may have been a one-off, but it was very disappointing.

    J. Liu Restaurant & Bar of DublinResponded on May 15, 2023Hi Kelly, We are very sorry for the poor experience you had this time around. We do try to work hard to better ourselves and we hope we will get the chance to make it up to you in the future.

    We had a nice dinner for a work/team event. None of us had been to J Liu in a very long time. We all enjoyed our drinks, appetizers, and food. It was a lovely evening and experienced good service. We asked to sit outside on the patio and the staff accommodated us. Traffic got a bit loud sometimes due to being on right on the street. But all in all, we had a fantastic time and will be back again.

    I had the tuna steak seared and sliced. Accompanied with rice, aioli and one or two other items. Also had the house salad. Salad was outstanding, and this was the best tuna steak that I’ve ever had. Seriously…and I’m 69. The seasoning was perfect. Accompaniments we’re creative and very good. I’d go back in a heartbeat. My wife had the Miso salmon, and she was very pleased with that dish. She also had the lobster bisque, and said it was terrific. We plan to return to Dublin in the fall, and we’re eating at this restaurant. No questions.

    We have visited the Worthington location a few times but this was our first visit to Dublin. The location is easily accessible from the interstate, parking is adequate, and the atmosphere is more intimate than the Worthington location. The service is always excellent and t he food is always delicious, no matter what we order.

    We were thrilled to return to J Lui for a pre-theater meal as 3 gay male couples; we felt comfortable, welcome and loved every part of the meal...the calamari was very tasty; the lobster bisque was creamy and tasty; all the dishes were presented beautifully, and my ahi tuna dish was especially scrumptious...I am a very good home cook but what is wonderful about going out is all the additional ingredients the chefs here use to make the dishes true gourmet treats!

    Very nice dinner. We were celebrating our 53rd wedding anniversary. Reservation process was very easy online. We had a nice booth to sit and talk. Our server(Grace) was very friendly and attentive. Our only regret was that they had run out of filet mignon that we ordered for our meal. They had not restocked by the date of our reservation. We would recommend this restaurant to our family and friends.

    It was my sons bday and he wanted sushi - but no one else did. Lol. This was the perfect choice! So many options on the menu for whatever your taste - whether Asian food which was delicious or pasta and burgers. I’ve lived in the Columbus area all my life and have heard of the place often but was our 1st visit. Nice but not fancy, prices great, food exceptional, great cocktails and service. Would recommend!

    Took the whole family for my birthday. There were eight of us. They set up a table in the corner right where the servers walked by. It was way too tight. Just too many tables shoved into a small space. Service was extremely slow. Not what we are used to in Dublin. We are spoiled by Cameron Mitchell service. Food was good. Just took way too long to get.

    The appetizers were great, as was the red sangria. We had the grilled avocado and dumplings. Very fresh and delish. For the mains we had salads. Very tasty, but for almost 20. bucks, there could have been more salad. I had ordered the large, but it was more of a side in my opinion. Good place, def worth trying out we have been several times and we really like it. If you like avocado, do get the grilled avocado app.
