" Unfortunately, my experience at Japan Samurai wasn’t the best. We had a long wait for our food even though it was not particularly busy. The hibachi chef was talented, but the flavors in my meal were not as vibrant as I expected. Additionally, I was surprised by the automatic 18% gratuity on the bill for our small party. I left feeling that I could get better quality sushi elsewhere for the price I paid. I won’t be returning. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had an awful experience today! The service was unbelievably slow, and the food lacked flavor, which was disappointing given the hype surrounding this place. Nobody seemed to care about the customers, and I felt neglected. I won’t be returning even though my friends seem to love it. It’s unfortunate because I had high expectations after hearing so many positives. " (*Curated Review*)

" I enjoyed my meal at Japan Samurai quite a bit. The sushi was fresh, and the presentation was beautiful. The hibachi experience was entertaining as well. Service was alright but could be improved; a couple of times we had to wave down our server. Nonetheless, I would recommend coming here at least once for the fun factor. " (*Curated Review*)

" Amazing experience! The restaurant was lively, and we felt warmly welcomed. Our hibachi chef went above and beyond to make my daughter's birthday memorable. The food was absolutely delicious. They offered generous portions, and we will definitely be back for more family celebrations. Can't praise them enough for how well they treated us. " (*Curated Review*)

" Japan Samurai is a delightful dining experience! The service was commendable, and the chefs kept us thoroughly entertained throughout the meal. The food was fresh and tasted delicious, especially the hibachi shrimp and fried rice. However, the only downside was that it felt a bit pricey for what we received, but overall it was a great time.

" Had a fine time at Japan Samurai last weekend. The food was satisfactory and quite tasty. The server was nice, but they could use another person to help with the busy tables. The hibachi chef delivered a fun show while cooking, which made up for the long wait for the food. Overall, I’d say it was a decent dining experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" Decent visit to Japan Samurai overall. The ambiance was nice, nice seating, and prompt service initially. However, as more customers arrived, the wait time extended longer than expected. The food was satisfactory but did not stand out significantly. I appreciate that they are consistent, but at this point I am looking for more creativity in their dishes. " (*Curated Review*)
