   It's rare to love every dish in a meal, but we did! The tea leaf salad was the best we'd had. The spring rolls were spicy but excellent. The whole branzino was artfully presented, surprisingly chewy (in a good way) and delicious with many sauces and frisee lettuce on top. The thick, warm garlic noodles were a nice complement. The garlic Japanese eggplant was as good or better than at my favorite Chinese restaurant but fresher. For all the garlic in these dishes, it was never overpowering; instead, nicely balanced with other ingredients offering tang, crunch, heat, and coolness, making for a great flavor with no heavy garlic aftertaste.

   We had the delicious spring rolls, black cod, and firery tofu (spicy) for a very enjoyable dinner. I would recommend

   We return to Teakwood again and again because of the quality of food and the proximity to the Davies Symphony Hall. It was a busy evening and our waiter did not pay too much attention to us after food was delivered. Tables were small and crowded. When we’re ready to pay, I had to get up to find somebody. It is a more comfortable experience if you can get a booth, with 3 or more guests. Otherwise, just go for the food, not the ambience or service.

   For some reason I didn't love this restaurant. I ordered the garlic salad (think that is what it was called) and it was too spicy so I traded with my son who ordered the Burmese salad which I thought didn't have a lot of flavor and was a bit boring. My daughter had the soup which was more like a stew. The location was good. Close to the Opera house and the Symphony Hall.
