What User likes about Sam's Chinese Kitchen:
I always make sure to stop at this restaurant whenever I visit Clarion because it has the best Chinese food! The food is great, the staff is fantastic, and best of all, they don't use MSG in their dishes. If you're sensitive to MSG, definitely give them a try. You won't be let down! View all feedback. What Donna S doesn't like about Sam's Chinese Kitchen:
The worst food everything was dry and it took for ever for it to come ! My bill came out to 90 for four people she put everything separate nothing was a complete plate the rice was dry the food was so bad we didn't eat it and didn't even take it home ! Never again the cook was taken orders View all feedback.

Vegetarian options: Willing to make the Menu customizable. I 've ordered just about every chicken dish available with tofu instead of the chicken.

The Sesame Chicken and Crab Rangoons are the best you'll find anywhere! Sam's is a gem in this small town!
