I do like Samurai Sam's, but it depends on the time of day that you go. For the most part it is good, and worth trying if you've not tried it before. If you go during a "slow time" you'll notice your food isn't that fresh - meat has been sitting for a bit, etc. If you can manage to go at times when there is a faster turn around for food - lunch time, etc, you'll enjoy it quite a bit more. I love the Steak Yaki Soba bowls. They are great.
