There's a specific reason why I am submitting a review of another chain. Samurai Sam's is close to work for me, but more importantly, the menu features more healthy options than the average fast food joint. This is important to me because I am still on my New Years diet.
Frankly, I've eaten at this location several times over the last couple years, and I've never walked away regretting my lunch. The variety includes an all vegetable bowl to brown rice options and of course, the proverbial egg roll. Not to mention the variety of limited time menu items, such as my most recent selection.
Me and a colleague stopped in for lunch this week and right away, the promo photo for General Sam's Chicken Bowl caught my eye. In fact, my photo (below) of the entree shows how appetizing this choice is. Plus, the sweet and spicy sauce sealed the deal. I requested brown rice and enjoyed every bite. Ask yourself this. When was the last time you saw snap peas in a fast food restaurant?
The only down side to this location is the very crowded parking lot at lunch time. It feels narrow and there doesn't seem to be enough parking. If that's the case. You can always find room on 48th Street.
Bottom line, the menu is always pretty tasty. And the only way to make it any healthier would involve walking to the restaurant.
