The restaurant is small but cozy, the sashimi was fresh, and the rolls were sizable. I'll be back!

I had just left a review somewhere else about how I've never had a restaurant that served both ramen and sushi where the ramen was actually decent, but there's a first time for everything, right?The restaurant itself is quaint, but comfortable and has a nice ambience. I sat right in front of the sushi making area so I had a nice little show while I ate. The server was nice and took my order quickly and checked in on me enough.I had ordered both a miso ramen and a couple pieces of tamago nigiri. Funny enough, while my usual complaint is the ramen at a sushi restaurant, today it's more of a small complaint about the sushi! The sushi itself didn't taste bad at all. It was well-made, in fact. My only "complaint" was that the tamago was still very cold from the fridge, but still really tasty. It didn't affect my overall experience.The ramen was great and the presentation was really nice. I'm really fond of miso ramen in general and they made it really well here.Noodles: The noodles are thinner, springy, and chewy. They were pleasant to eat and tasted amazing. They had a nice neutral taste that went well with the broth.Broth: The broth was rich and savory and had a good miso flavor. It was served perfectly hot.Toppings: The pork tasted like it was marinated well and was nicely braised. The egg wasn't marinated in anything and was a plain soft boiled egg. The bamboo shoots also tasted good on their own. I also enjoyed the corn last in the broth. Everything worked well both separately and together.Overall, I was very pleased with Lili Sushi & Ramen! I'll definitely be coming back to enjoy the other bowls of ramen offered here!Vegetarian options: They have vegetable ramen

Food was phenomenal, service was nothing special, it was just one girl working. But the food is worth the wait it’s very very good.

I order from Lili consistently. My favorite spot. This is the only time i feel like I've wasted my money. I ordered an Alaskan roll, Philadelphia roll and takoyaki. The rolls were 90% avocado and a thin , barely noticeable piece of salmon. Takoyaki had little to no sauce. Disappointed. Will be trying to find my new go to stop.

All five of the sushi rolls we had were really good. Cute small space. Will definitely be returning for my next sushi craving.

The harumaki was super delicious.The problem was that I was eating my ramen and noticed it tasted sour. Then I saw that the noodles had mold. It was green/blue. They tried to say it was from the purple cabbage. They gave me mochi ice cream as an apology, but we still had to pay for the molded ramen.

The service is a little slow, but the food is delicious. My favorite appetizer are their jalapeno poppers and every sushi roll I have tried I end up loving. The place has a clean smell, and relaxing ambiance. My boyfriend and I have always enjoyed it here.

For some odd reason, a lot of sushi places are closed around 2 pm... I was late for lunch but early for dinner but luckily Lili Sushi was open. For an appetizer, I ordered the Crab Rangoons and Fried Calamari. The calamari was perfectly cooked and bite cleanly. No chewiness at all All the rolls I ordered for lunch were fresh and tasted amazing. The service was top notch and the food arrived fairly quickly. The location is fairly small but there were plenty of tables to go around. When I arrived around 2, there was no one else in the restaurant but I was never ignored. This place is one of my favorite sushi places. I will surely return in the future.
