This place came highly recommended by many of our friends, and we finally got a chance to try it out. The service was excellent, friendly and attentive, and the ambiance felt cozy and family-oriented.
The sushi was great overall, with plenty of options to choose from. They have an impressive selection of baked rolls, which I really enjoyed. The Special #1 was good, though my expectations were a bit higher. The Viking Roll was flavorful, but I would’ve preferred the lemon to be a little less overpowering. The Awesome Roll was absolute perfection and the Baked Scallop Roll was amazing too
Definitely a place we’d come back to great vibe, great service, and delicious sushi!

I haven’t been to Samurai Sushi for a long time. Today, I came with my family because my cousin from Switzerland wanted sushi. She ordered the Dragon Roll and she loved it. She was like a little kid tasting ice cream for the first time. She was dancing in her seat because she was enjoying it so much. She told the owner that it is the best sushi she’s ever tasted. I tried the Super Salmon Roll. It was so yummy. The salmon on top was baked perfectly, flaky and natural. My mom had her favorite, the Mexican Roll which has crab and cucumber inside and spicy tuna and avocado on the outside. We were so very satisfied with our meals and will definitely come back.
They have Happy Hour all day Monday through Thursday.
The restaurant is lively and fun. The owner greets everyone as they walk in and makes us feel welcome.

If you want sushi in MV this is a great choice! Friendly staff, great sushi, and fun atmosphere! 10/10 would recommend! You get a warm welcome and goodbye when walking in and out. The fish on these rolls is amazing! Highly recommend grabbing the jalapeno poppers as well. Food doesn’t take too long to come out either.

It is one of the freshest and tastiest sushi restaurants I’ve been to in South OC. It had very positive vibes as well

Been here 4 times now and I won’t be going again, the first two times in was great. The last two times, a completely different story. I ordered 2 bento boxes both with teriyaki salmon, 1 with a crunch roll and one with a spicy salmon roll. The crunch roll had brown avocado in it and was falling apart, and the spicy salmon roll looked like the chef sat on it after he rolled it. 2 stars because the staff is always lovely but the quality control for the food here is terrible

A small spot to eat good sushi or other Japanese dishes. Kids were very happy with the selection, too. Some of our friends who don’t eat sushi ordered dishes with cooked fish or a seaweed salad and they were also very pleased. Some of the portions are huge. You might want to ask the server about the dishes you are not familiar with. Everyone was very friendly.

Use to be great. That was the fattiest eel I ever had, the lowest quality ever . The people that like the rolls here must really like sugar . All the sauce they have on there rolls hide the low quality Fish they purchase . So many better places I am surprised they are still in business. The rice is thick and fills you up and fish is small on the rolls . Never ever going back

We’ve gone to Samurai for years – pre-pandemic (dine-in), during the pandemic (takeout), and more recently now that restaurants are offering indoor dining again (takeout). Samurai is our go-to for fresh sashimi and delicious specialty rolls (Bingo roll is one of our favorites!).
This place has always been busy, especially with their “Buy one get one 50% off” happy hour special (Mon-Thurs). Takeout orders can take a long time – I called in my order on a Thursday around 5pm, and was told it would be ready in 10 minutes, but ended up waiting more than 30. Be ready for a wait!
Other than the wait, we love this place. If you dine-in, try sitting at the sushi bar. The sushi chefs are friendly and entertaining to chat with!
