They make the rice with garlic butter and then they serve you these two side sauces...I always only get double portions of the shrimp sauce. I think it 's a shrimp-based sauce. I 'll have to ask next time I 'm there. From the moment you walk in to see the friendly face behind the counter, to the table server, runner, and chef it 's an experience you 'll never forget. You can take a date, family, friends, or even go solo. The table is set up in such a way that even if you go solo you won 't be dining alone. I usually order the lunch combo with chicken and shrimp. The meal comes with a side of soup or salad, mushrooms (yum), veggies, chicken or veggie fried rice or you can order good old white rice. The salad has this ginger dressing that is to die for. The soup is delicious as well except that when it 's for lunch you have to pick one or the other (soup or salad). Whichever one you choose trust me you won 't be disappointed. For dinner, you do get both the soup and salad so you get the best of both worlds. Plus it doesn 't matter if it 's lunch or dinner the portions are very hearty. It doesn 't seem like it at first but once you have all of the food on your plate you realize it 's plenty of it. The only downfall is the heat/vapor, and you 'll walk out smelling like you just prepared your meal but you 'll leave happy. As my grandma used to say, Full belly, happy heart.

Although the wait was lengthy, it was definitely worthwhile. One person greeted us at the table to take our drink orders and meals. After a brief wait, the chef came over and worked his culinary magic. The entertainment added an extra touch that enhanced the dining experience. With each course we finished, our plates seemed to vanish from the table!

Samurai is very similar to Benihana with the big hibachi table that guests can sit at watching the chef cook their meal in front of them. Always entertaining. We ordered theSamurai Spicy Shrimp Filet meal, the Samurai Onion Soup and Samurai salad, and the Samurai California Roll. Everything wasdelicious. Service was very good here. Our server was attentive to our needs. Parking was easy and we got a good spot near theresturant. It was a very good experience.

Really delicious but way too pricey for what the portion was. Beautiful and clean place. Workers are very kind and respectful. The chef that cooked our food was really funny and relaxing to watch. But you easily pay 100$ for two people.DISCLAMER: if you park in the TJ maxx parking lot and cross to samurai, you WILL get towed. Then your bill will be 200$. Isuggest expanding the parking to avoid that.
