Reviews for Tengu Asian Bistro in Albany, NY
Tried Tengu for takeout and was pleased. Didn't order a ton, but everything I had was very tasty. One standard roll, one fancy... roll, and a few pieces of sashimi, all very fresh with nice presentation. It will definitely be a place to try again! Read more
The outside appearance leaves you wondering what it even is but inside is so pretty, quant and comfortable. We were seated... immediately the place was empty and I have no idea why. The food was INCREDIBLE!! The mongolian beef is so tender and soperfectly seasoned. The best gyoza ive ever eaten. My husband had a fantastic roll and he absolutely LOVED IT. We will be backagain and again. Thanks tengu! Read more
Great sushi at a fair price Our first 'visit' to Tengu Asian Bistro was actually in the form of a home delivery and were... extremely pleased with our dinner. Not only do we feel it was a fair price, but the food was also fresh, had great flavor,looked impressive, and got to our house in record time. We ordered fried dumplings, three different basic rolls and twospecialty rolls. Our total came to around $80 which, again, we felt was a fair price especially when you consider the overallexperience: taste, presentation, and packaging. The sushi was so good that this was the first time in a long time that we ateeverything that we ordered. There are many reviews raving about their specialty rolls, and we can definitely understand why;they were delicious! The packaging was amazing is amazing as well. The sushi was so perfectly packed that no matter how bad adelivery person might be, the rolls would be safe. I thought they might end up being a mess once I started opening thecontainers, but you can see in the pictures that the rolls came out perfectly. Finally, the rolls were rolled tight, so theystayed together when you picked them up. If you like good sushi, give Tengu a try. You won't be disappointed. Read more
So my first couple of times eating food from this place was good. I ordered online for my lunch break and I got the rainbow roll... (pictured) and the next day an Alaska roll and California roll. The rainbow roll had big ole chunks of fish which wasappreciated. Spicy Mayo was good. The only problem I had, which is kind of big, is the pieces were way to big. So every time Iate a piece, my whole mouth was full and I was literally stuffing my face and had to open my mouth as much as I could in orderto get it in. Make your jokes lol. Other than that, it was a good tasting roll. The Alaska and California roll were a goodnormal size and tastes very good. The wasabi was not spicy at all in my opinion. I had to really load it on a piece in order totaste it. One thing I LOVE is that they use very little rice. That's a big deal for me. And the miso soup is very good. Goodsushi place Read more
This was my first order from Tengu. The online order form is easy to use, no bells and whistles, pick up was easy, the dining... area is lovely, and I got 15% for paying with cash. I haven't had sushi in several months and the volcano roll hit the spot!Will definitely return. Read more
Great sushi, service, and ambiance. The wonton soup was tasty and the rolls were fresh and beautifully made. Prices were quite... reasonable. We will definitely be back! Read more
Though they have an advisory sign up stating that they have recently had to raise their prices, their prices are so very... reasonable for what you get. Their beautifully designed interior is gorgeous and sets the mood for the food. There is plenty ofseating and it's very comfortable. The waitstaff are very polite and fast, they gave an appropriate amount of time for us todecide on food and properly took our order down. It felt like just a few minutes later, we had our food. I was just getting donewith the starter salad and the main dishes arrived. Though it was quick, the order was also correct, and very delicious! Weordered the Shanghai noodles and the yellow curry. Both were excellent. Highly recommended. Read more
