"My favourite Japanese restaurant. And this time they have better offers for members. Their nabemono is delicious with lots of vegetables and the soup is quite sweet."

"It is always been my favorite japanese restaurant. The sushi was good especially dragon roll, I always ordered it. The ordering was a little bit difficult, since it is online self-ordering, the internet was not that good and it was very slow to load."

"Went with my aunties and cousin on Saturday for lunch. We really enjoyed the food tremendously. All the food were fresh chawanmushi, salmon don, avocado salad, agedashi tofu and the rests. The wasabi was the best. Service was prompt as well. Green Tea was so good too. We will be back again."

"Decided to give this place another go after they shift and renovated new place. Here’s what I tried for dinner : 1. Nabeyaki Udon ⭐⭐⭐⭐ - Upon my special request to make the egg fully cooked, they gave me hard boiled one The soup dashi were great but slightly on the sweet base side not as authentic as I had in Japan. Quite big portion however the pot used to cook with it looks so shabby with its coating went off perhaps it’s more healthier and safer if they use claypot instead? 2. Kaarage Chicken ⭐⭐⭐⭐ - Deep fried to super crisp and well marinated! The meat is not dry at all and still retain its juices. 3. Tobiko & Tamago Sushi ⭐⭐⭐ - Classics although the sushi rice a bit wet. 4. Chawanmushi ⭐⭐⭐⭐ - Nice dashi and lots of ingredients given."

"Sushi Tei: Comfort Food That Never Gets Old Sushi Tei will always be my ultimate comfort food spot. I swear, I order the same dishes every time but hey, when you love something, you stick with it, right? The restaurant itself is clean, tidy, and spacious with plenty of seating. The service? Always friendly and attentive, which makes the experience even better. This time, we added rice to our order, and no surprise it was delicious too. Honestly, I feel like everything on their menu just hits the spot. Hahaha! Can’t go wrong with Sushi Tei!"
