Great ambient – Rolls were very good and fresh. I tried severals, but the one that I liked the most was the "Pressed Sushi" (spicy tuna, bid eye tuna, salmon and avocado). Attention and design are great
Good but not good enough – My husband and I are very loyal to a certain sushi restaurant in town. Over ten years and at least 100 dining experiences, and it has not failed us. However, on a recent Thursday night, we decided to branch out and try Shinsei. I've heard that the starpower (Owners are celeb chef wives of Kent Rathburn & Dean Fearing) doesn't overshadow the focus on food. On our visit, this much was true. The food was creative and very fresh, and the wine list offers good pairings. Unfortunately, that is where it s... read more
Love this place! – When this place first opened the wait was long and I think they were still trying to work out the problems. I love this place and I am a "baby" sushi eater...my sushi consists of cooked pieces...but I have tried some of the rolls that my husband gets and I LOVE it. They have expanded their restaurant and wait isnt bad if you go early. I have never had a bad waiter always have great food. I did have a party there once and they do make you order from a pre set menu and I did not like that..i dont like not ha... read more
horrible service – I was a big Top Chef fan and my sister loved the chef at Shinsei, Casey. I decided to go there for my birthday and emailed the owner for reservations. She never replied. When I called, she said she thought the co-owner had called me. She recommended to have a set menu since it was a large party (12). She was supposed to email me the menu but it never came even with further request for it. As luck would have it, the reunion show for Top Chef was airing that nite. My husband asked if Casey was in and if she ... read more
Go early, it gets crowded quickly! – What a treat! This place is filled with the beautiful people, with absolutely no snobbery from the owners, managers, or staff! Cool bar upstairs, scrumptious sushi at the sushi bar, and a saketini that will knock your socks off. We will be back!
Great Atmosphere – This place ROCKS! We went this weekend and it was crazy. It was a long wait...but the place was hopping. the upstairs was packed and we had such a great time! By the time we sat down, we were ready to eat. The sushi was fresh and we had Elvis (the sushi chef, you gotta see this guy) make the decisions for us. Perfect evening. Try the sashimi and don't miss the Cod entree. The service was not rushed, but they didn't take their time either...understood when a place is this busy. Check out their chef on the c... read more
Extremely Poor Service – We went to Shinsei Friday night for my girlfriend's birthday. We had an early reservation, and when I made the reservation a week prior, I had special circumstances for the birthday celebration that the hostess said they would be more than happy to accomodate. Not only did they forget the special arrangements, but we sat for 15 minutes before our drink order was taken, and another 15 before our appetizer order was taken. They forgot to bring the appetizer, and the server could not even keep our wine ... read more
Loved, Loved, Loved It! – This is a great place to have a fun dinner. It is a little loud, but it is also really busy. Loved the Kona Kamachi Special. Try the Miso Cod and the stuffed jalapenos, but they are hot! Very fun, very lively. The sake list is outstanding. We tried it for the first time and I never write reviews, but this was so great. Chef Casey (from Top Chef) was in and came by and visited with us. She was really pleasant and even better looking than on TV. Our ser vice was prompt and we never had to wait on anyt... read more
HOW VERY DISAPPOINTING!! – We are guessing that if your husband is a well known chef in Dallas, then you can serve terrible food at VERY UNREASONABLY HIGH PRICES, and get a good review (way ahead of schedule) from the now gone food critics of the Dallas Morning News. What a lousy meal we had. The only thing that was worse than our food, was the choice words that we could hear coming out of some females mouth in the kitchen!! Our friends who paid for our check, probably won't return either. They told us that the place was goi... read more
