" I was hopeful for a great sushi experience but ended up a bit disappointed. While the ambiance was nice and the service attentive, the sushi rolls I ordered lacked the freshness I typically enjoy. The tuna was good, but some of the other rolls were a bit bland and underwhelming. I think they could improve on their rice texture as well. I might give them another shot for the hibachi experience, but overall, my sushi expectations weren't fully met. I would rate them a solid 3. " (*Curated Review*)

" I went to Tekka on a whim for a dinner date, and what a great choice! The atmosphere was lively and vibrant, exactly what I wanted for our night out. We ordered different sushi rolls, and I was blown away by the quality of the fish—it was so fresh! Plus, the presentation was stunning. Our server was friendly and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed. I even tried the hibachi, which was as entertaining as it was delicious. Can't wait to come back for another round! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a really enjoyable dining experience here! The atmosphere was bright and inviting, and the food was delicious. We went for the hibachi which was entertaining in itself. The chef did an excellent job cooking our meals while providing some fun humor. The portion sizes were decent for the price, and we left satisfied. The sushi at the end of the meal was also a delightful surprise. We will definitely return soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was very excited to try Tekka given its great reviews. The atmosphere was upbeat and fun, but I found the food lacking in authenticity for a Japanese restaurant. The hibachi grill was okay, while the fried rice had an odd taste compared to what I am used to. On the other hand, the sushi rolls were reasonably good, but not anything exceptional. The service was friendly but needed attention to detail, especially during busy times. Overall, I was left a bit disappointed despite the hype. " (*Curated Review*)

" My family wanted to try out a new place, and I'm glad we landed at Tekka! The hibachi experience was exceptional. The chef was entertaining, and the food was flavorful and well-cooked. I also tried their signature sushi and was pleasantly surprised by how fresh the fish was. Each piece melted in my mouth! The portions were satisfactory, and we all left feeling full. The only downside was the wait time during peak hours, but the food was worth it. I left feeling happy and satisfied; will return again soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I have mixed feelings about my visit to Tekka. While the atmosphere was welcoming, the food fell a bit short of my expectations. The sushi was fresh, but I found the rice somewhat mushy, which wasn't pleasant. The hibachi chef was fun, but I would’ve liked more interaction! The portions were okay but didn’t seem substantial enough for the price. I’m unsure if I would come back based on this experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" My first experience at Tekka was quite unique. The atmosphere is lively, and the decor is beautifully done. I particularly loved the sushi bar area. I ordered the chef's special sushi rolls and they were visually stunning and tasted even better! However, I found the portions rather small for what I had to pay compared to other sushi places I've been to. Still, the service was top-notch—attentive yet never overbearing. I would recommend it but maybe as a treat rather than a regular stop. " (*Curated Review*)
