My boyfriend and I went to Teak on a wednesday night thinking that they had half off sushi. When we arrived, we realized that it was half off appetizers and drinks only if you sit at the bar. The place was relatively quiet so we decided to give it a go and ordered a few tap beers and the mussel appetizer. \r
My boyfriend thought his beer was a little on the warm side, but mine was cold and delicious. Also, I have no doubt that if we would have nicely asked the waiter for a different, more chilled beer, he would have obliged. The mussels were pretty good and the spicy sauce it came with was surprising. How often do you get a spicy sauce that is actually spicy?!?! :) We then ordered a sushi roll; I can't remember the name of it, but it was something to do with ""Spicy Spider"" and had crab in it. \r

Holy cow.\r

Pretty phenomenal looking and tasting. In addition to a generous portion of rolls, there was a MOUND of spicy deliciousness on top. When I asked what it was, it didn't seem like any of the staff knew FOR SURE, but they did know the basics of the dish.\r

The bartender working was friendly and played a lot of Radiohead, which was much appreciated. We were impressed with the staff in general, who seemed eager to make conversation and give suggestions. We will definitely go back to Teak!
Pros: Great staff, great food, cheap beer
Cons: I wish the staff knew a little more about the rolls.
