Been coming here for at least 17 years now! never had a bad experience. Always Great customer service and amazing dishes. I've personally sent tones of people here and they were amazed by this little gem in the middle of busy Lower Greenville
Not sure why people leave bad reviews, if they have not even had sushi here ..
After having lived in the neighborhood for several years, it wasn't until I had moved away before I'd decided to try it! I was super pleased! The sushi is on the pricy side but excellent!
I couldn't help but notice how many couples were here but then I realized how much of a perfect date night spot this would be! I'm definitely coming back... probably with a date!
Honestly 4.5* but there are no half stars.
Food was fantastic! (Think Japanese tapas)
Sake options were very good as well.
The service was, at times, painfully slow.
Our food came out over a two hour period. When dealing with "tapas", this means that there were long stretches of no eating.
At the end of the night, after ordering dessert, the staff came out to apologise for the delays in food (we did not complain to anyone) and brought us a tray of macaroons.
Everything here was pretty good. I think my favorite thing from the night I went is actually tied between the chicken liver skewer and the sea urchin. The only things that I could have passed on was the cow tounge (tough for what I'm used to) and foie gras (which had something on it that was so sweet it overpowered everything). I think the general consensus from everyone that night was that the place was liked.
Great atmosphere, the staff is wonderfully attentive and the food is top notch. Absolutely loved their selection of skewers.
Not sure what's with all the recent reviews, but I went on a Saturday at 8 PM had no issues whatsoever. Food was absolutely delicious, although a bit disappointed yakitori is a $30 set rather than whatever skewer you want. Service time wasn't bad at all, received everything in reasonable time. Did not feel like it was exceptionally slow, and was out of there within an hour and a half or so, which felt reasonable with what we ordered.
Taste was amazing, although prices are high for the quantity you get. Yakitori alone will not fill you up, but I got a Yakitori set ($30) + Wagyu Fried Rice ($40) and was full afterwards. The fried rice is easily one of the best I've ever had.
I plan on returning next time I get the chance.
Teppo is a very intimate and authentic Japanese atmosphere. It has a small and quiet dining space which allows customers to really feel as if they have left America for a short period of time. The food does not stray far from this ideal, so be prepared to try something new when you go if you are not used to authentic Japanese food. For those who are adventurous and well versed in their cuisines, you will be delighted by some of the best sushi grade fish and meats there is to offer. The fried rice is huge wake up call for your local Chinese delivery place and the dessert wont disappoint either. It should be mentioned that Teppo is priced to reflect the quality of food, therefore you should expect to spend a generous amount whenever you go.
I have had sushi all over the US, and this place honestly serves the best sushi I have ever had. The texture, temperature, and taste are perfect. The tuna just melts in your mouth. The prices are slightly higher than I pay most places, but worth the high quality and fine service. Highly recommend this place to those who love high quality sushi.
Been there few times, always excellent-food wise and service wise.
Delicious! Yummy bites, love the chefs choice option. The sushi quality was wonderful, definitely recommend trying. We did the yakitori, mostly white meat bites, but they were all great.
