" To tell the truth, I came with high expectations based on friends’ recommendations, but my experience fell short. The sushi was fresh, yes, but the flavors were somewhat underwhelming. Service could have been better, as it took us quite some time to get our drinks refilled. The atmosphere was nice and lively, but I was expecting better from the food. I might consider trying just the hibachi next time, which seems to be more popular. " (*Curated Review*)

" The prices at Samurai Japanese Restaurant were a little higher than expected, but the quality of the food justified the cost. The garlic fried rice was a standout! My family ordered several rolls and shared dishes, which allowed us to try a lot of different flavors. However, I wish the portion sizes were a bit larger, especially for the price. We didn’t leave feeling overly stuffed despite the good meal. Overall, a solid experience, and I recommend it if you're in the mood for sushi. " (*Curated Review*)

" A delight for anyone who enjoys sushi with the added bonus of an entertaining cooking show. I have to say, the lobster roll was the highlight of my meal! My partner and I were wowed by the skill of the chef while enjoying a lively atmosphere. The only downside was the waiting time for our table; we didn't have a reservation, and it was quite crowded. Still, I’ll definitely be back for another round of this deliciousness! " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been to Samurai a couple of times now, and each visit has been a mixture of hits and misses. The sushi is usually good, but the service can really vary. Sometimes it’s attentive, other times it's almost nonexistent. The prices are steep, and while the food is fine, it doesn't always match up to the cost. I'd recommend the place for the fun atmosphere, but only if you're prepared for a potential service letdown. " (*Curated Review*)

" Great atmosphere and friendly staff! I had a wonderful time at Samurai. The way the chef prepared the food was entertaining, and the sushi served was fresh and flavorful. A bonus for me was the extensive menu that allowed us to order different types of rolls and entrees. However, I felt the portion sizes were smaller than expected for the price. If they could improve that, I'd come back more often! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve had better sushi, but I don’t want to completely discredit Samurai. The service was decent, but the food didn't quite match the atmosphere’s energy. Some of the rolls we ordered felt overly sauced, which masked their flavors. Additionally, portion sizes were smaller than expected. I think it’s worth a visit for the show alone, but I wouldn't prioritize the sushi for my next outing. " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't say enough great things about my recent visit! The sushi was not only photogenic but also delicious! The chefs were entertaining, and it was great to watch them cook our meals. My friends and I ordered a variety of rolls, and everything was fresh and tasty. The staff was friendly and quick to serve us, which made the experience even more enjoyable. Overall, this place has a welcoming vibe, and I'll surely be back soon! " (*Curated Review*)
