About Shinsei

Shinsei offers a mix experience; while there may be confusion regarding waitstaff and slow wine service, the sushi bar stands out with fresh and unique sushi, served by attentive staff. The food is enjoyable, with highlights such as the steamed dumplings of the day, short rib potstickers, and salmon sashimi. Many guests recommend the Dumpling Sampler when available and praise the Peking Duck. Reservations are advised, especially as the courtyard room is preferred for a quieter dining experience. Service can be hit or miss, but the management, including owner Lanae, has been responsive to feedback. The adorable Neko & Inu chopstick holders are available for sale as mementos. Guests have described the food as consistently fresh and savory, with many returning for the amazing sushi and overall enjoyable experience. Special mention goes to the Chocolate Cake Spring Rolls and the crispy rice with tuna, which enhance the dining experience at this Dallas gem.
