Tei Tei Restaurant

I'm a big fan of Tei Tei's. The sushi is always top notch. Although it can get a bit crowded during the evenings on the weekend, it is worth the wait. In the last six months, we have visited this establishment about 10 times. And each time, no matter what we order, it is always culinary yummyness. more

The best Sushi restaurant in Dallas! I recommend the Kobe beef that you you cook on a hot rock. Also, the yellowtail is always the freshest in town. I always take people from out of town and have yet to be disapointed. It is a dining experience and makes you feel in another place. Pros: Freshest seafood and nice ambience Cons: usually have to wait more

Loved the food, service was good, and ambiance was good too. Made reservations for a large group weeks in advance, however, our reservation was lost. After arguing with the manager, which was a good guy, and yelling at him made me feel bad (sorry), I got the reservation. Waited but 15 minutes to be seated. I recommend their lobster in some sake/juice. GREAT!!! Pros: Food, Ambience, Service Cons: popularity has made reservations a must more

So I had this long review written out with great description then my computer messed up and deleted it. Pros: It's just amazing Cons: my stomach isn't big enough more

After seeing the previous reviews, I felt like this would be a good place to eat. more

Sashimi, sushi, and their lobster is always fresh and made/grilled to perfection. Manager is friendly as hotess but they should really hire one. TORO is incredible!!! they use the very rare blue-fin tuna (so far the only place I know that serve it). deliver of the food is great as well~ dishes looks great, unique dishes (ex: cornflake shrimp), many choices of cold, smooth sake to choose from and ofcourse Sapporo comes in the original 16oz bottle with ice cold drinking glass like it should. being asian this is the most authentic and tastey food I've had so far living and traveling in the US for over 15+ years Pros: Food!! deco, area, extremely professional wait staff, and friendly bartenders Cons: party of more than 5 long wait, long wait for pick up valet parked cars more

Sashimi is always fresh. I guess since I'm a frequenter there, I get the manager to serve me. She knows what I order and the sushi griller grills my lobster to perfection. Pros: BBQ Lobster, Chilean Sea Bass, Personal Service Cons: Always running out of Toro!!! more

I visited this place along with another sushi restaurant while I was in town on business. The food was great! I started with a few sushi rolls and then moved on to the foiled grilled sea bass which was exceptional. I sat at the bar and ate and had drinks which was a great atmosphere. I had read other reviews saying how busy it was and the long wait but for a lone visitor I had no problem sitting down after 8pm. It's in a great area and the service was great; I will return when I'm back in town. Pros: Ambience, Food, Area more

Everyone loves Tei Tei! They only serve the best of everything! I just LOVE it! Always FRESH & DELICIOUS! Pros: QUALITY!! Valet parking. Cons: Wait staff not all that great. Too Small. Ridiculous reservation window. more

The wait at this restuarant is long you are basically forced to have a drink before you are seating, if not five. The waitress even said that plenty of people are ""not sober"" when they begin to eat. I can attest from seeing this red head face down on the table unable to move. The establishment looks very nice, but it is very small. Once we were finally seating I noticed that the sushi menu was not all too extensive. There was not even 10 rolls listed on the menu, that is horrible for a sushi place. They ran out of Toro, which I was extremly upset about. However, the shrimp appitizer was excellent. In addition, there were signs for no smoking but that rule was clearly broken as they even provided customers with ash trays. Furthermore they do not take reservation past 6:30, unless your VIP. There was a table for 8 not in use for an hour because it was on hold for someone else. If we did not have to wait close to 2 hours to be seated I am sure my opinion would be different, but I did. As a plus this place is really great for people watching, especially when you are there for a long period of time. Overall, if you can get there early and don't have to wait I would say go ahead because other people seem to like it. Pros: Valet Car Service Cons: Wait, Small Space more

Very nice decor, ambient. The presentation of the dishes, mainly the pottery, are ""super"". Unfortunately, the food had lots of ""up and downs"": great grilled Branzini, but fishy Octopus (Nuta); great quail with scallion, but insipid and ""watery"" Soboro Daikon; a perfectly cooked wings, but ""what happed with the chef?"" tasting Kinki and Asari Sakamushi. The young lady that was our waitress was unbearably ""dark""...no smile, no reaction,no...everything... A Japanese restaurant, but most definitely, not a place for the native Japanese. (And there was not a single Japanese the night I was there). Pros: Decor, presentation of the dishes. Cons: Too many: Too salty, too insipid. more

we got there kind of early, so seating wasn't a problem, but if you get there 8pm or later, you might be waiting in the front lounge area. We enjoyed the sashimi and sushi very much. The Spanish mackerel was beautifully presented and tasted good. This is high quality sushi, that melts in your mouth almost like butter. We brought two friends from out of town here and everyone walked away happy. Service is fast and courteous, even folding your napkin if you get up to use the restroom. more

I have been here countless times. It is still one of my favorite restaurants and go back all the time. The bar scene is awesome. The waitresses are lively and fun plus extremely attentive. The food is always on the mark. Best dishes: chilean seabass, steak on the rocks, lobster, sushi, etc. It is all very good. Enjoy. Pros: Chilean Seabass, Bar Scene, Everything Cons: Not great for groups more
