What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Samurai Japanese Steak House is praised for its entertaining teppanyaki chefs and delicious, high-quality food, making it a great value for both families and groups. While many rave about the vibrant atmosphere and engaging service, some reviews mention issues with sushi freshness and longer-than-expected wait times, particularly with online orders.
"Wow! Talk about a hidden gem. I’ve always seen this place tucked back in the strip mall but with the blinking signage it turned me off. I would have originally suggested that the owners have their sign replaced with something fresher and more sleek looking BUT they truly do not need help bringing in business! Came in on a Saturday night left around 9pm and people were still piling in!
We left the restaurant saying 5 stars and I truly mean it.
Beautiful restaurant. Quick and polite service. Delicious food. Great prices! Clean bathrooms. Turtle pond for the kids to enjoy.
I wish I would have given this place a chance sooner! Sat at a table this time and had a great time, but the Hibachi side of the restaurant was having a blast! Definitely suggest trying it if you love a good Japanese steakhouse. 5 stars all the way! Fantastic job!"

"A place to get great food. Hosts large groups easily, and the hibachi is entertaining. I dont normally like steak over other meat options, but this has to be some of the best I've had."
Alex Butcher
"I went here on a whim to grab some sushi. I was greeted quickly and seated within a couple of minutes. The waitress was great, she checked on us multiple times topped off our drinks. The sushi was great. There's a huge assortment that's great for anyone. The prices are not cheap but they're not over the top for decent sushi. Highly recommend this place."

This was our 20th anniversary dinner - at home. We've never been disappointed by Samurai and tonight was no different! My husband splurged with the filetFilet Mignon & Shrimp hibachi and he said it was awesome and that the steak "melted in his mouth." I ordered a favorite of mine, but I order it rarely because it's a pricey appetizer: Tuna Tataki. Oh my goodness! It's crusted lightly with a mild peppery dust and seared for just a moment, so it's still raw except for the crust. The ponzu sauce it's served with is *mwah* perfect! My main was the Spicy Maki Combo. I normally go for sashimi, but I was in the mood for something spicy. No regrets. All 3 types of rolls were delicious and succulent and just...yum. Thank you, Samurai, for making our night special!". "tako su is authentic not just squid with sauce and the sushi rolls have generous fish portions. very happy!". Hibachi New York Steak 8 Oz
