What Janelle N doesn't like about Samurai Sam's Teriyaki Grill:
Super bummed... I really enjoy the food here but right as I pulled up and could see into the storefront and there's an employee behind the counter behind the door with the red flags and he's putting food into his mouth with his bare hands. Seeing a food handler eating behind the counter was a huge appetite killer. Then as I continued to watch he proceeded to take food orders and then also prepare meals without gloves...

I got one of the best pieces of salmon i’ve ever eating with noodles and sauce to match, the tenderness of the salmon and power of the flavors all blended in my mouth and their sauce was beautiful, i love the salmon yakisoba and the fact that it was ready within less than 3 minutes in incredible.

Grabbed lunch to go. Was good, somewhat quick and I will come back

Despite a mix of positive and negative reviews, it seems like Samurai Sam's has had some ups and downs lately. While some customers praised the friendly and efficient service and the delicious salmon dishes, others raised concerns about poor customer service, cleanliness issues in the bathrooms, and food quality - from bland teriyaki bowls to undercooked edamame and hard, stale egg rolls. It appears that consistency is an issue at this restaurant, with some locations excelling in food presentation and service, while others fall short. Customers have expressed disappointment over experiencing a decline in the quality of the food and overall experience compared to previous visits.

The food always tastes goodAnd more than anything, they always serve it super fast! It is probably faster than McDonald or Burger King.
