I really used to like this place, shame it is closed. Food was pretty good, and it was never busy(probably why it is now closed). It was probably a little over priced but it was nice never having to wait for a table.

After reading some of the reviews I was almost looking for a reason to not like this place and never found one. Everything we ordered was superb and cooked with perfectly balanced flavors. Not greasy or oily whatsoever as you get when you order at a lot of other places. The spicy chicken was excellent and the side items very good. I realize it is not truly authentic Asian, but the food is really spot on and the service was great.

I really hope the rebranding rumors are true!!! And I really hope the new brand has the lettuce wraps and bread pudding… it was our favorite in town!

They are rebranding. I hope they keep my perfect meal. Edemame, dumplings with creamy soy sauce and Te Kei roll fried. My life would be meaningless without it.

Atmosphere and staff are nice and attentive. Food is very underwhelming, except the salads. The salads have interesting texture and flavor(and I’m a salad fiend) with fresh greens(no iceberg there). I’ve also had two different rice bowls and ahi tuna seared rare. The tuna was somewhat too salty, but seared tuna stands on its own. The rice bowls were so flavorless or completely missed traditional Chinese flavors entirely(e.g., ginger basil tastes like neither, rather, tastes like the chef experimented with coconut milk and Chinese five spice). Pei Wei, although a chain, is a much better bet for traditional Chinese rice/veggie/meat combos.

We ordered Pearl’s Lemon Chicken and Tan Tan Noodles(no longer on the menu). The portions were alright, but both dishes were way too sweet for us. I guess you are paying more($ 11.50 per dish) for the nicer atmosphere. The food isn’t much better than a typical chinese takeout. Agree with another reviewer that the rice wasn’t the best. It was too mushy.

I stopped by this place to grab lunch before I headed to the airport due to Unilocal reviews. I get there and it’s NOT crowded so one would think my «to-go» order would be taken fairly swift. I had a few servers pass me and NOT one asked if I needed anything, because yes I wanted to hang at the bar at 2 in the afternoon. After questioning if anyone was working, I was finally helped. The food(Southwest Asian bowl) came out fairly quick and the prices was okay, not really a lunch price. The food was okay, except the chicken. It was a bit on the dry side. I would definitely substitute for shrimp. This place has great potential to be nice but for this first time out of state guest it gets 3 stars.

Te Kei’s is on my frequent dining list and a must whenever I’m entertaining out-of-town guests. The atmosphere is peaceful and relaxing to make your meal more enjoyable. Top notch wait staff who are there when you need them and don’t interrupt you while having a conversation. The Happy Hour appetizers are a real bargain and always delicious. Don’t miss out on the trying their cocktails and deserts.

Started with Chicken Satay, a moist, tasty starter. Great peanut sauce compliments this tasty treat. Sip some ht green tea and peach iced tea, and soup’s on! Tom Kha and the Hot & Sour, both great selections. Now to dive into Pad Thai(pictured) and Cashew Chicken. Yummmmm

Damn. I mean, this place really sucks. Thought we’d give it a shot but literally worst 50 bucks I’ve spent in a while. Wish I would’ve blown it gambling or at a strip club. I wish I could just go throw up and go to PF Changs. What a buzzkill for Friday night.

We were able to reserve their back room for a Christmas party and it was perfect. The food was very good. I ordered the Umami Burger. It looked and tasted great, spicy, but not over the top. I tried several friends’ sushi also, but it was nothing special and seemed to have a lot of rice used as filler. The service was asinine for such a nice place. Those who ordered sushi waited at least an hour. The rest of us still waited about a half hour for our food but we were done eating well before the sushi got there! Management really made an effort and comped all the sushi and desserts we had ordered. As we were getting up to leave, we saw a small cockroach crawling on the wall next to our table. It really was a nice restaurant with good food(thus the three stars) but the service was utterly lacking and hygiene questionable.

Te Kei’s has been one of our favorites for several years. It’s off our beaten path so we reserve it for special occasions and have always had good experiences, but last night will be our last visit. Food was good, service was average if you could get past the body odor of our server each time he filled our drinks. We were about to order dessert when the birthday girl said mom there is a bug crawling behind your head. It was a cockroach and after getting the stinky waiters attention we quickly realized it must be fairly common. We passed on dessert and he promptly brought us our check. We had to ask to see a manager and by the time he got there we had spotted two more roaches in our booth and the crevice where they were living. The manager did comp our entire check and assured us they use Orkin but we left feeling sick rather than satisfied.

Service has improved! Food was still great! Had Honey Salmon last time and it was awesome! Next time I would sub more veg or something for the wasabi potatoes. They were a lil odd and almost tasted instant. Well done though!

I had never been to Te Kei’s before, but I guarantee that I will return. My cousin suggested we eat here for lunch since she had a groupon and wanted to use it. I was nervous as I always am when trying a new place. I have food issues and can be rather picky. We were seated promptly and I was impressed by the menu. There were a variety of choices such as sushi, edamame, ribs, soups, rice bowls, and chicken. I decided on edamame and coconut breaded chicken. My cousin ordered the edamame, but also the pot stickers, and a rice bowl. Our food came promptly and plentiful. The edamame had just enough bite for me and was perfect. The chicken; oh the chicken… I loved it! It was crispy, sweet, flavorful, and just fabulous. I am a very picky eater, but I would order this again in a heartbeat. For dessert, we split a Mount Wutai; an Oreo pie. It was incredible. The whole meal was just perfect. We will definitely be back!!!

We used to go to this restaurant a few times in a year. It’s been 6 – 8 months since our last visit. The ambiance is still good and the server was pretty good. Among the 7 of us including kids, we only found one item that even had a semblance of our previous experience. Most of the items were pretty bland and nothing unique. From the time we saw the menu, we realized that there is something different. Don’t know if they changed ownership and chef, but we will not be going back again. Only reason for the two stars are for the location and ambiance.

This is perhaps my favorite restaurant in the world. I have dined here probably around thirty times; it’s a drive for me and I’m not made of money. But any day I get to eat at Te Kei’s is a true treat. The place is a work of art: from the beautiful exterior to the immaculately detailed interior. For me, this place can do no wrong(though I will still try to conjure up any negatives I can think of). First off, I don’t come here for the sushi. It’s never been out-of-the-ballpark quality sushi, but what I can say is that when I want to push one of my non-sushi eating friends closer to their inevitable trip to loving sushi– this is the place we go. We order blackened chicken sushi– which puts their fears to rest a bit. It helps them get a grasp of the ingredients to expect. However, the sushi itself is not among the best in Tulsa for me… which is fine because everything else is. The entrees are simply dining experiences. Picking a favorite feels like as much of a challenge now as it is anytime I’m presented with a menu here. The Southwest Asian(?) is a charming dish that everyone seems to love. Lately, I’ve been eating family style and splitting dishes among the party, and the Shrimp Tempura has been a hit(it’s served on a salad with an amazing dressing). Some people like Pearl’s Chicken– it’s not my favorite but it’s good. And while I’ve experienced undercooked rice a time or two, it’s nothing to keep me from returning and loving this place(the one Asian place I don’t want to fill up on rice). Some of the dishes also take creative turns on well-known traditional Asian dishes. For example, the Pad Thai has interesting notes and seasoning you wouldn’t find it a traditional restaurant, but I like it. Just don’t expect the same-old-thing and your taste-buds will have an odyssey to another world. I never order desserts. In my entire life, I think I’ve ordered a dessert at maybe three restaurants. And of course, Te Kei’s is one of them. Their bread pudding consistently takes my breath away. I’ll be honest: this is the only dessert I’ve tried(I have this fear of chocolate). Maybe one day I’ll branch out, but for now, the Pacific Rim Bread Pudding is a requirement. One last note and thank you to Te Kei’s: the Game of Thrones(Taking the Black Stout) beer! This took what is usually a 10⁄10 experience up even more! I adore you guys!

Another Tulsa restaurant that I’ve been wanting to try! I came for lunch with my sister. Nothing seemed really appetizing on the Lunch Menu(typical American«Asian» food), so I got sushi. I got the Dragon Roll(which had tuna, asparagus, cream cheese, chili paste, avocado, wonton crisps and green onions) and the Tiger Roll(which had tempura shrimp, ahi tuna, avocado, spicy and sweet soy sauce). Both were good. There were some parts of the roll that had excessive amounts of rice like the sushi«chef» didn’t know to actually even out the rice before they rolled the roll, but that’s okay because I’m a rice fiend. I thought the rolls were good, but expensive — more than $ 20. I had a bit of my sister’s food — Pearl’s Lemon Chicken. The chicken was good, but her white rice was undercooked. HOWCANAN «ASIAN» RESTAURANTNOTKNOWHOWTOCOOKWHITERICE?! That’s the freaking STAPLE of Asian food. Service was okay. The table we were seated at still had crumbs on it(I guess someone didn’t clean the table. Good job.). It’s a shame such a pretty restaurant is going to waste on a place with such flaws.

I was hoping the low reviews of Te Kei’s were kind of overblown because I’ve been to other Americanized Asian restaurants that were rated low, but were actually enjoyable(looking at you, UWS Ollie’s). Alas, Te Kei’s was not very good. As others mentioned, the décor is very beautiful. Unfortunately, when we sat at one of those nice-looking booths, the table hadn’t been wiped properly and was covered in flakes of old food. Blech. I ordered Pearl’s lemon chicken with brown rice. When it arrived at the table, the chicken portion looked good, but the rice did not. I’m not even sure how to describe the texture: maybe it had been cooked with too much water so the grains were blown out, but then left to dry so those grains were covered with a starchy sheen? And this was not a case of the rice looking bad but tasting great; it was gummy and tasted like starch. We flagged down the waitress(Why is it that the one time I’m not actually satisfied with my meal, no one has come around to ask me how it is?), and she promptly brought out a bowl of white rice. The new rice looked way better, but when I ate some of it, it was underdone. What. How is it that an Asian restaurant cannot cook rice properly?(!) That is a huuuuuge red flag. The actual chicken dish was pretty good. The chicken wasn’t soggy, and the veggies were crisp tender. But the improperly cooked rice? Come on. On a nerdy note, they have the Game of Thrones Ommegang Take the Black stout. Can’t mess up a bottle of beer?

Talk about some serious ambiance. The building is huge and and is architecturally as beautiful outside as it is inside –I was so impressed! The décor inside was breathtaking. Huge wooden tables, booths, extensive bar area with TVs abounded in dim lighting which set the mood for a unique dining experience. The service was outstanding and we were well taken care of the whole dinner. We started with the avocado spring roll and I can tell you I will I’ll be back for these and a drink soon. They are PHENOMENAL. Only 4 come with the order so I recommend each member of your party order their own –you will want to eat all four. I wouldn’t come back for a meal. Colin had the Thai Chicken with Peanut Sauce noodle bowl –it was really heavy and soggy with too much sauce. I had the Thai Chicken salad and really only enjoyed the chicken part of it. Great place to try. Not too expensive and again, an impressive ambiance!
