Tengu Asian Bistro Albany

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 two specialty rolls. Our total came to around $80 which, again, we felt was a fair price especially when you consider the overall experience: taste, presentation, and packaging. The sushi was so good that this was the first time in a long time that we ate everything 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 a delivery person might be, the rolls would be safe. I thought they might end up being a mess once I started opening the containers, but you can see in the pictures that the rolls came out perfectly. Finally, the rolls were rolled tight, so they stayed together when you picked them up. If you like good sushi, give Tengu a try. You won't be disappointed.

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 of seating and it's very comfortable. The waitstaff are very polite and fast, they gave an appropriate amount of time for us to decide on food and properly took our order down. It felt like just a few minutes later, we had our food. I was just getting done with the starter salad and the main dishes arrived. Though it was quick, the order was also correct, and very delicious! We ordered the Shanghai noodles and the yellow curry. Both were excellent. Highly recommended.
