Reviews for Antai Asian Dining in Lexington, SC

Went with party of 6, no reservations taken on Saturday. Quaint place inside. Good many options on the menu, even for the... non-sushi eater. General Tsos was fantastic, just the right amount of heat. Rice was light and fluffy. Kids had sushi- stated itwas all very good/fresh. Dumplings and soups were tasty as well. A little on the pricer side, but the food was well worth it. Anice little gem in Lexington. Read more

The price is a little expensive, but don't let that deter you if you want to try this place. It is worth every penny. The sushi... is the best I've ever had, and I eat a lot of sushi in various places. We had sushi, the vegetable dumplings, and a few drinks.I highly suggest trying the Fortune Cookie. It is a dangerous combo of Amaretto, Triple Sec, Bailey's Irish Cream, Half andHalf, and Vanilla Vodka. You cannot taste the alcohol, but you'll definitely get a buzz quick! Everything was amazing, down toour waitress, who was very efficient and attentive. Definitely suggest trying it, you won't regret it. We did have a 15 minutewait because the restaurant was full, but we were called quickly to be seated. Read more

Nearly every time i visit my mom, we go to Antai. This small mom and pop restaurant is nothing short of spectacular. There are... very few restaurants my mom can eat at as she has life-threatening food allergies (pepper and eggs). Antai takes her foodallergies seriously and always special cooks her orders, finding ways to add flavor without pepper. You'd be amazed how manyrestaurants don't take food allergies seriously and put plates covered in pepper in front of my mom. I have nothing but thehighest compliments for the cleanliness of their restaurant. It's another reason we felt comfortable coming here during andafter COVID. when a table is finished eating they take tremendous care to clean, wiping down not only the table but also thebooths and chairs. Lastly is the food. The sushi is top-class, so it's always hard to choose between that and the shrimpkabobs. Constantly craving the soy vinaigrette dressing on their house salad. Everything tastes super fresh. Can't recommendenough. Read more

The food and service here is absolutely wonderful. Our server was so sweet! They have such large portions so the price makes the... food worth it. Their stir fry dishes are great, and I love their brown garlic sauce!! The dumplings are amazing too, and thejasmine tea complimented our meal nicely. I had an amazing dinner aside from the Very Rude couple sitting next to us, but thatwas completely out of this establishment's hands. Such a great restaurant, they really deserve a more diverse and betterclientele! Read more

We drove about an hour from Augusta to try this place out after checking out the reviews on google maps. We arrived around 7pm... on a Saturday night and were told we would have about a 25 minute wait. We sat outside on the patio and waited until we weretexted to come inside. The interior of the restaurant is really cute, it can easily be a causal jeans and sneakers place or adressy date night spot. They have a HUGE menu which was the first thing that struck us. Sooooo many options, it is really hardto choose what to eat! It all looks so good and the smell inside of the restaurant doesn?t help, there are constant smells ofginger and meat, it?s intoxicating. They have several specialty cocktails, we tried 4 of them and they were all really good. Iwould suggest the Fortune cookie, my fella would suggest the Grand Margarita. We ordered calamari and crab wontons as ourappetizers, both were good. I always wanted to try a REAL ?crab Rangoon? and that?s what it was giving me. Real blue crab meatand not imitation crab. For our entrees we ordered the king pow chicken and the green coconut curry with beef. I tried only abite of my SO?s kung pow chicken but it was delicious! The peanuts were a nice textural difference. My coconut curry wasAMAZING. I?ve had authentic Thai green curry yearsss ago and I couldn?t find anything to come close until last night. It was socreamy and had the perfect amount of heat. They weren?t stingy with the meat which I appreciated. Our server was very busy so wespend over an hour and a half there but she came to check on us as much as possible and made sure our drinks were full. I wassurprised at how affordable this place is as well, 2 apps, 4 cocktails, 1 sweet tea and 2 entrees came right up under $100. Myonly complaint is I didn?t see anywhere on their site where you can make reservations online. We took a chance driving an houraway, luckily our wait time wasn?t ridiculous but it would have been nice to be seated immediately with a res Read more

The service here was great and the food, even better. The vegetable tempura was delicious and perfect. The cucumber roll and... spider roll were delicious.

The sampler wasgreat too, highly recommend as the vegetable spring rolls, dumplins, crab wontons are all delicious Read more

Amazing food, sushi rolls very tasty, pad thai was increible, salad and miso soup super fresh. The place was clean, bathrooms... are clean, highly recommend. Read more

The food is delicious and made with fresh quality ingredients. The drinks are wet and the waitress laughed at my Dad jokes. The... only issue is this place gets packed in the evenings so you may experience a 30-60 minute wait. Their bar is small but if youcan snag a seat the time will fly by. Read more
