I have project area and no team area. All members are added to project area.
However, we do have different teams in the project. Is there a way to limit the visibility of team dashboard to particular team?
So there will be 3 types of dashboard:
1) Personal dashboard - This dashboard is specific to a developer. A developer will have read and write permissions to it.
2) Team dashboard - This dashboard is specific to a team. A developer will have only read access to it, but team lead can read and write.
3) Project dashboard - This dashboard will cover all teams (entire project). A developer, team lead will only have read access to it, but project manager can read and write.

Is there a way to set this up?

I see personal and project dashboard but not able to set up team dashboard.

Pravin, if you have distinct teams, why not create team areas? This will generate dashboards for each team area. By default, all users can see the project and team dashboards, but you can restrict this by modifying project access rules.

I should note that you cannot restrict one team area from viewing another team area dashboard. The only ability to restrict the visibility of team area dashboards AFAIK is by restricting read only access to the project area itself. See Control read access to project area

You can customize the data returned in the team area dashboards to only return information about members of the team area, but the other team members can open the team area dashboards.

There is a RFE which requests more control over access to project dashboards:
