" I had high expectations for Samurai based on what I heard, but my experience wasn't as great as I anticipated. The food was average and the service was acceptable but slow. It took a long time to get seated and the chef was delayed. I might give it another shot, but I wasn’t blown away on my first visit. " (*Curated Review*)

" From the moment we walked into Samurai, I felt welcomed. The hostess seated us promptly and our chef was a true performer! I ordered the chicken hibachi, and it did not disappoint. The only drawback was the hiccup in service; it took a while for our drinks. All in all, it was a solid dining experience, and I’ll be back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Just had the most delightful dinner at Samurai! The hibachi was nothing short of spectacular, and the chef’s performance added such a fun element to the meal. Every bite of the chicken fried rice was bursting with flavor, and the shrimp sauce was superb! I will definitely return—it's perfect for a date or a family gathering. " (*Curated Review*)

" I love Samurai! I’ve always had great food and enjoyed the show with each visit. I had the chicken and steak hibachi this time, and it was delicious. The fried rice was flavorful and filling, but the wait for a table was a bit longer, but worth it. If you haven’t tried this place, go ASAP! " (*Curated Review*)

" Samurai is a must-visit if you enjoy a lively atmosphere with great food! Our chef was fantastic and really engaged with everyone at the table. I had the steak and it was perfectly cooked. The portions were generous, and I even had leftovers to take home. The only downside was that the drinks were a bit overpriced. But overall, I recommend it! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been to Samurai several times, and it’s always a good time! The food is consistently high quality, and I love the garlic butter they use. The chefs are entertaining, and I appreciate the effort they put into making the meal special. Although sometimes it gets busy, the wait is worth it. I’d definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a unique dining experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" The food at Samurai was excellent, and I loved how the chefs cooked right at the table. It felt like we were part of the show! The shrimp fried rice was incredibly flavorful and the portions were generous. I will say the wait times were long, another reason I’m giving it 4 stars instead of 5. Overall, I would recommend it to anyone looking for a fun meal. " (*Curated Review*)
