Nippon Tei is one of my favorite restaurants in St. Louis, as I am a weekly regular. The sushi is excellent, the rolls are creative, and the staff could not be more friendly. Even though I am a regular, they make everyone feel just as welcome. The non-sushi items are as amazing as you find at any restaurant; the fusion menu is unique and full of test, while the Ichiban Steak is second to none, especially for a spicy pallete. Yes, the restaurant can be crowded, putting extra pressure on any sushi staff, but be patient, as the wait is well worth it and the ambience & atmosphere makes for a wonderful evening. Great for a romantic night or a family dinning experience, Nippon Tei is a must try on anyone's list.
Pros: Ambience, Staff, Unique Menu
