WOW! What am amazing find. We celebrated Valen-times and had a great and rewarding experience. The food was meticulously crafted! Some was simple but flavorful, some was complex. Barbara was a great and gracious waitress… or was it Amber… Nancy… oh never mind.
Even better, the entire staff was engaging and took the time to really connect with us. I truly appreciate a solid customer journey and great food… WELL DONE!

Thank you Tei-An for a lovely lunch. To our server, thank you for your patience and knowledge you shared with us about the menu. We were very happy with our selections and the pickled veggies were a great starter. We enjoyed a sweet finish thanks to you and both were delicious.
Make a reservation ahead of time for this lovely arts district restaurant.
We wanted a walk so we walked from city center and it took about 20-25 minutes and their were many museums and galleries on the walk that would be great for those exploring the city.

Overpriced and mediocre food at best. Sushi was very cold, texture off… seemed semi frozen still, not what to expect for a Japanese fine dining experience.
Be careful, they charge $6 for a small cup of tea that should be complimentary.
The fried chicken was actually okay, maybe the best item along with the soba (both fairly priced as well)
The wagyu slices highly disappointing, served basically raw and didn’t even feel like wagyu.
Service was poor, expect to wait for a reservation and have your waitress rush around.
Unfortunately the experience is not worth the cost

Came for Valentine’s Day meal and unfortunately felt disappointed by the 500 dollar price tag from the omakase course.
Food was Ok at best, sushi was decent. highlight of the meal was the soba noodles which I would want to come back for just by itself.
Service was Alright, will say it was a 6 course meal but the further we progressed through the courses the longer the wait got between the meals. Between course 4 and 5 it wound up being a 30 minute wait. Also wasn’t fond of auto gratuity being applied at 20% on the day we booked, especially given that service wasn’t as great as it should’ve been for the price point.
So for the 500 dollar price tag would def not recommend.

The best part of this dinner was our server Vy, very friendly and explained everything well.
The overall culinary experience though, didn’t match the $700+ price tag. We have celebrated birthdays here for multiple years and this time around the food quality really tanked. Not a single dish really shined. The “cherry on top” was the scrap-looking paper-thin otoro slices on the sashimi bowl. Quite disappointed.

My husband and I celebrated my birthday at Tei-An last night, it was such an amazing experience. We decided to do the 7-course “Classic Omakase” ($145) and I was initially worried that we wouldn’t be full in the end, but I was definitely wrong about that. We normally celebrate at places with the typical omakase in which it involves sashimi, nigiri, and sometimes an app/soup so we didn’t really know what to expect with this kind of omakase. We added on the toro, uni, freshly grated & pickled stem wasabi to our meal and it was a must get! Our drink of choice was a bottle of cold “Yuzu Omoi” sake and it was smooth & refreshing. After every course I was blown away by the quality and creativity of each course. I kept repeating “how can it get better each time?!”, we have already talked about coming back in the future since our experience was so amazing!

My husband and I celebrated our 7th anniversary here, and it was truly one of the best meals of my life. The food was exceptional in its uniqueness, variety, and quality—absolutely flawless. The atmosphere was calm and intimate, and the service matched it perfectly. Do yourself a favor: make a reservation and experience this place.

Ordered the omakase for two and left very disappointed. The food was mediocre at best, and the nearly $500 total (including tip) was hard to justify. Definitely not worth the price when there are far better options available.

A splendid evening with Omar and his team, who went above and beyond for my first experience at Tei-An. Each course was presented with a description of historical relevance and customs in the Japanese culture. Dietary restrictions were followed with even an accommodation to one of the courses I had ordered! Friendly, courteous and attentive staff made the experience unforgettable till my departure. Will definitely be visiting in the future.

Exceptional experience, especially the service. Food was fantastic and crafted with elegance. It’s pricey but you can’t take it with you when your time is up. So live!
