Restaurant Review
Teak restaurant is an Asian - American fusion restaurant popular as a trendy gathering place for an under 55 crowd who enjoy people watching and meeting for drinks before ordering up some good Asian food.
The lounge area is a comfortable area for conversation with lots of couches, pillows, and ottomans.
The 140-seat restaurant offers guests a casual, yet upscale dining experience with a modern, soft lit with an Asian influence.. The restaurant is divided up into three sections; quieter rear dining area, street view dining for crowd watching, and the vibrant bar area.
As this review is being written, the restaurant is nearing completion of a expansion that will include 1,340 square feet of year-round indoor dining, plus 1,545 square feet of outdoor seating above a dining room that is now open on three sides in good weather.
The kitchen is run by Executive Chef/ Partner George Lyristis.
The Asian - American dishes are made with a variety of fresh local products . The menu is creatively prepared with portions offered as either small or full plates.
During the warmer months there is outdoor dining on the expanded patio.
