" I have been visiting Sam's China Inn for years, and while I've generally had good experiences, my last visit left me a bit disappointed. The food came out cold and lacked the freshness I usually expect from them. The staff was friendly, but it took a while to get our orders. I still believe they serve some of the best Chinese food around, but hope they can improve consistency. " (*Curated Review*)

" We were so happy with our experience at Sam's last weekend! The honey walnut shrimp was crunchy and wonderfully sweet. The crowd was lively, and we enjoyed the atmosphere. The only downside was that our server seemed rushed while taking our order, which made the experience a bit less personal. Regardless, we'll return for the fabulous food! " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at Sam's was just okay. The orange beef was pretty good, tangy but not too sweet, but the egg rolls were subpar—definitely not what I expected. The service was delightful and quick, which was a plus. I'll give it a few more tries before I make a call on whether it's worth the hype. " (*Curated Review*)

" Our family always chooses Sam's for takeout. The combination fried rice is plentiful and very filling. We enjoy the shrimp fried rice as it has generous shrimp and great flavors. The service for takeout can be busy at times, but the quality makes it worthwhile. We'll keep coming back! " (*Curated Review*)

" During our last visit, we found that some dishes were a bit underwhelming. The chicken in our General Tso was not as crispy as we remember, which was disappointing. However, the service was great as always. The environment is usually pleasant, which is why we keep returning! Overall, I'm hopeful the next dishes will impress more. " (*Curated Review*)

" Sam's continues to impress! I recently enjoyed their scallion pancakes as an appetizer, and they were cooked to perfection. My main dish was chicken curry, and the flavors were excellent! I experienced the best service yet, and the décor is charming. A great choice for date night or a family gathering! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently discovered Sam's China Inn and was thrilled to find authentic Chinese food in the area. Their menu is extensive, but the orange beef stood out to me—it’s now my favorite! The staff is always cheerful and creates a warm environment. I would recommend this spot to anyone who appreciates good service and good food! " (*Curated Review*)
