    I've never been here before but decided to give this place a try! Upon entering I found the vibe so cute and cozy. There was a big bar selection and the tables were very well spaced out. The service I had was amazing and the guy who waited on me was always quick to ask if we needed anything. He answered any questions I had regarding the menu. To start off I got a lemon drop martini (not pictured!). Overall it was delicious and tasted like a liquid lemon meringue pie. A little more on the sweet side but overall delicious. I ordered miso soup (also not pictured) and it was hot and delicious. For an entree I ended up getting 2 rolls which were both good! The chicken lo mein was a little more on the salty side for me but looked delicious and very appealing.

    This gem of a restaurant is tucked away in the strip mall, you may miss it and that would be unfortunate. Your greeted by a welcoming staff, and the food order comes out promptly all of the appetizers were great, Tuna was delicious, and had great texture, rolls were very flavorful, and the tempura was cooked to perfection, and was not greasy. When on Ambassador, this is your go to for sushi.

    I highly recommend this place for good quality sushi at a fair price. This is not upscale dining, casual attire is fine. The food is fresh and atmosphere inviting and friendly. Great for lunch or dinner. This establishment has been around for a long time, which testifies to the quality product they deliver.

    This restaurant never fails to impress with the freshness of their sushi. We had the miso and mushroom soup, the broth is tasty. The baked salmon appetizer which comes in three pieces and delicious. We could not decide so we got ALL THREE ROLLS as pictured. They are specialty rolls and not on the printed menu. Need I say, my Jack and coke topped off this meal. Must visit this restaurant

    Best sushi in Lafayette. This our definitely our "go to" place and has been for years. Ask for Tom!

    We've eaten here and ordered to go many of times. Food is always good and fresh. Not sure what happened to the staff that have been there for so long but new staff were rude and not knowledgeable about the menu. Hope they work the kinks out.

    Sushi: the lower two rolls are the "Oil Spill Roll" which were fantastic!

    This is a hidden gem in Lafayette. We were warmly welcomed and were seated promptly. The waitress was very attentive and brought our drinks quickly. We order several rolls and, sadly, I don't remember the names except the Cajun Dome roll, the Oil Spill roll (my favorite!), and the Mardi Gras roll. The sushi was extremely fresh and expertly prepared and presented. This was a very enjoyable evening. Will definitely be back!!

    Wanted some sushi to eat at home, and heard so much about Samurai but never got the chance to eat there. The place seems a little small, but was fairly packed. The staff here is really nice, I came a little early to pick up the food, and they offered me drinks while I waited. We had the following: - Penny Salad - delicious and light - Combo Fried Rice - the rice was delicious, perfectly cooked, the rice was not dry nor was it greasy Rolls: - Crunchy Roll - snow crab and avocado rolled with tempura flakes - Rainbow Roll - snow crab, avocado topped with yellowtail, tuna, and salmon, smelt roe - Cucumber Roll - snow crab and avocado wrapped with cucumber - Ricky Roll - snow crab and avocado with baked salmon on top with mayo sauce - Samurai Roll - jumbo deep fried shrimp, snow crab and avocado wrapped with soybean paper - Orange Blossom Roll - fried white fish, crab meat, avocado, wrapped in fresh salmon and smelt roe, and Sriracha on top Overall, the rolls were delicious! Easily one of the better places to eat sushi in Lafayette! Will be back!

    Three rolls we ordered

    Took my family for dinner before the movies. Key things to note…read more Locations is solid. In the center of Downtown - parking everywhere available. Inside the restaurant gives modern industrial Japanese Sushi house - perfect for celebrations and date nights. Service is solid - server greeted us and sat use down and then waitress came shortly after. We ordered a ton of food - would order all again. From aps like the carpaccio to the wontons, edamame, chicken karate, soups, crab salad. All were very good and fresh. We ordered noodles and sushi rolls for the main course. Absolutely delicious! 10/10 would come again. Also, we did not make it to the movies.

    I truly love the food here. I always order to go during my lunch break - the rating is based on the…read morepoor customer service I received today and has nothing to do with the food or ambiance. I don't know much about ambiance because I've never eaten inside before. Today I had the lunch combo - Unagi and Gelsha Roll w/ miso soup. Food was delicious as usual and the pricing is fair. I paid $16 for the lunch special The customer service definitely was inconvenient. My order was ready at the bar - the waitress at the bar asked me to wait while she passed out menus and got customers drink orders who were dining in. She started fixing their drinks and then asked someone who just walked up to assist me. This whole time there are two other people behind the bar as well just talking. Now it pissed me off because I am looking at my order and all someone had to do was take the payment and I was out of the door. I ordered online so that I will have time to drive there, pick it up, and eat. So the waitress asking me to wait while she takes orders was crazy to me as well as the other people behind the bar not assisting. I just slapped the $20 on the counter, grabbed my food, and left. That service alone I will not be returning. Which sucks because the food was delicious.
