Food:

Called to put in a large order. They didn't have one of the items we ordered but that happens sometimes. But they didn't bother to call us back to tell us, so one of the people in our group had an incomplete meal. If this happens, then you should really let us know so we can make another choice. Then I ordered the chicken karaage appetizer. It was ~$5 and there was literally 6 pieces of chicken approx the size of a quarter. I asked the waitress if this was the correct portion, and she said yes. They were dry and inedible. I had the yaki-soba with chicken and vegetables. There was barely any chicken and overly done with vegetables. Also, when we got there at the pick up time, we had to wait an additional 25 mins. The only thing that was decent was the sushi, which is why I gave it 2 stars.

Food:

Food quality: mediocre at best. Miso soup was too salty (MSG?), salmon teriyaki was bland. Came with some uncooked broccoli. The service was OK, but not attentive or helpful. It's also a bit overpriced here, considering what we got for the foods, both in terms of quality & quantity. I wouldn't come back.

Food:

I have been to many japanese places. Sam's little place here is one I return to often. The availability of some of my unique favorates and a rotating selection of less common dishes keeps this place from becoming just another Japanese place.

Food:

My wife and I go here alot. We love the Sushi and Sam, Diane and the crew are the best. For a special experience, sit at the Sushi bar, tell Sam what you like and let him surprise you. It's the finest, freshest and best presented Sushi around. ...finish with an Uni shooter.
