Tei-An is exactly the contemporary zen Japanese it claims to be. An aroma of woody incense is pleasingly present as soon as you walk in. The decor and stone arrangements also make the earthy vibe a comfortable dining environment. Our server, Janie was very kind and went out of her way to provide exceptional service. She introduced the menu and explained how the sequence on how the food is served. The house made pickles were a refreshingly excellent start to open our taste pallet. They were a perfect balance of sweet, tangy, and tart. Highly recommended. The soba sampler is a great way to taste different flavor pairing for the soba. The bolognese is an interesting take on westernizing soba. It has the light texture of soba noodles combined with the richness of mushrooms and cheese. The chicken karaage was disappointing to me as it tasted pre-packaged and out of the freezer. I know it's not the what they specialize in, but they could improve the karaage recipe to taste more traditionally Japanese. Other than that, I enjoyed my experience at Tei-An because everyone was super hospitable. Other servers stopped by our table to exchange our dirty plates and wipe the water off our table. I can tell there's a lot of effort put into the details of service. I hope others can have the same positive experience as I did.

Food was mediocre, we tried the omakase. The only thing I would recommend is the tuna tartare and their dessert. The white seaweed was really oily and the soba too heavy. Not worth the price.

Lunch here may not have the same cache of nighttime sushi dinner but get right in to gobble the soba noodles in various ways. Off menu picked vegetable cold soba salad is a champ. If your needing warmth, the duck broth dipping sauce is mighty. Fresh fish? Naturally. Ours arrived only hours before hand, direct from Nippon.Best salmon ever!Hankering for unagi? Yay Boy, also imported and you get the whole eel my people including the krispy krunchy fried spine.The desserts are also beautiful with stunning flavor.In general the decor is understated, clean and elegant. They take great care to match the food colors to the serving plates. And when nature calls you’re in for another treat, the heated seat and back side car wash known as the Toto Washlette is in service in the WC. Never had such a pleasent post meal pause ?

Each dish was a work of art, beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. From the delicate sashimi to the rich and savory ramen, every bite was a delight for the senses. The service was impeccable,! Great exp

I went there on my anniversary and it was a quiet restaurant with good service and atmosphere. The Japanese chawanmushi, which I have loved since I was a child, was also delicious. However, the chocolate cake my husband ate seemed too sweet.

One of my favorite places in Dallas, the architecture alone is worth going to see. I love the Omakase experience and the soba noodles. The menu changes with the seasons and they always have the best sushi. Excellent service and attention to detail. Highly recommend!

As soon as you walk into this place, you feel like you’ve been transported to a super-authentic Japanese dinner experience, fit with nice decorations and a cozy, intimate atmosphere. They have a daily special menu which changes everyday, as well as a separate menu which doesn’t change. We ordered the omakase ($140 pp), which turned out to be such an amazing experience. The courses range from sashimi platters, to fried oysters, scallops, and my favorite items I tried: the A5 Japanese Wagyu beef, Duck Soba, and Soba Buckwheat ice cream. The beef quality and texture was very high, and practically melts in your mouth. The soba was very flavorful and the buckwheat ice cream was surprisingly one of my favorite ice cream flavors I’ve ever tried, it reminded me a bit of tiramisu.The service here was also great, they constantly refilled our drinks, and gave us new sets of plates and utensils for each course of the omakase. This place is definitely on the pricier end, but IMO worth if you want to treat yourself or for a special occasion! 10/10 amazing dinner experience.Parking: free parking with restaurant validation
