Yummy We enjoy this place usually a few times a month. Really good and friendly staff.

My daughter's first time having sushi and she loved it. She loved the Udon noddles as well. Every bite was delicious for her and mine as well. The waitress was a very gentle woman who helped me work around my allergies of shell fish. It wasn't as busy as I expected at 7pm on a Saturday, but the dining area was immaculate and the dishes were taken immediately after we finished our meals and side meals. The presentation of the meal was wonderful as well, for the people who find presentation part of their appetite.

I have been here numerous times in the past and was pleased with everything for the most part. This visit taught me that there has been change mostly in pricing. Nearly all of their sushi rolls are priced around the $20 mark. Maybe Sam's customer base is much higher than I anticipated because I can't see how they can sustain prices this high. I can easy see their prices justly being around $15 per sushi roll but a $20 mark is, in my humble opinion, too high for what they offer.

On vacation and decided to try Japanese food! I made the right choice. Had the lunch special with two choices, teriyaki chicken and California rolls. Food was great and service was awesome as well. I love the wasabi on the California roll!

Good sushi but just ok service. We come to this place often when are in the mood for sushi and are on the go. The sushi here is good and reasonably priced for the portions. I've never been disappointed here by the food. The menu has changed a bit recently so it worth a stop if you haven't been here in a while. The Ahi Nachos are great, they rival the Yard House's. Yellowtail Serrano Hamachi Carpaccio was great as well. There's an overwhelming amount of rolls on the menu. We chose the Tiger Roll and were not disappointed. I thought it was odd that we were asked if we wanted Wasabi & Ginger and got it in the side. Every time we come here the service is average. When we go out we are willing to pay for the experience. Here that's never been the case. Staff is polite enough but nothing more. I would recommend eating at the bar instead. The decor is neither upscale nor trendy but it is clean and quiet. We will come back again when we need a sushi fix.

They're trying too hard to combine Mexican food with Japanese food. I will never go back. I don't recommend it. The albacore was by far the worst I've ever had. The staff was nice. Slow, but nice.

I've been to all the sushi spots out here. Sam's by far has been my best experience. The sushi bar has some excellent chefs standing there to help and are friendly and fun. They will make what ever you want. The chefs are artists with it. Nice portions. Normal sushi prices. This is my spot!

My friends and I love coming to this restaurant. Their sushi and udon are delicious and would highly recommend. The ramen, unfortunately, is a hit or miss. Sometimes it's packed with flavor, and other times, the broth is a bit bland, but overall the food is delicious.
