    Some type of animal feces in middle of white marble hallway.
    K B.

    We've been twice now and not really impressed. This last visit was it for us. Got there at 11a last Saturday. We wanted the Hibachi tables, and were first inside. Ordered within the first 10min after sitting which was good. However, it went downhill from there. It took literally 48 MINUTES for the chef to come out to the table!! We were 1 of 2 tables sat, it was NOT busy. The ordered off the dinner menu since our server said there were no combo plates on the lunch menu. We got filet and shrimp. The size of the steak was a joke! Barely a 1/2 steak. Shrimp were cut in 1/2 to make it look like more. The steak was chopped up in very small pieces to again make it look like more. This was the worst part.... I walked to the restroom and in the walkway inside our dining area, there was what looked like to be an animal feces. I pointed it out to the hostess who quickly swept it up. It was smack dab in the center of a white walkway! Not a single person saw this prior to opening?!? Gross! I then noticed several rate/mice traps all around. I know restaurants have an issue like this happen, but walk your establishment before opening.

    Hibachi is not as tasty as I remember it being. That seems to be the consensus from my group. This is an extremely chic restaurant (by Murfreesboro standards), packed with big families around the holidays. I came here with my grandparents for a little dinner and a show. Service is ok, they're dealing with a lot of people in a loud and crazy environment, but I thought it lacked a feeling of TLC. The salad that comes with the hibachi meal was swimming in dressing, way overdressed. But the soup was delicious. Hard to mess up a broth. The hibachi guy was great, not the most exciting show I'd ever seen but he certainly had the spirit. I got the shrimp and steak combo hibachi with fried rice and veggies. The steak was pretty flavorless and had very little char. That was my least favorite part. I think a lot of the flavors could have used a bit of tweaking. The fried ride was too salty and not nearly enough umami. I still ate it all, fear not.

    Highly recommend Samurai's Cuisine to anyone in the Boro looking for a good hibachi grill! My family and I enjoyed our experience and will definitely be back. My husband is a big fan of hibachi restaurants so this one's been on my list since moving to TN. We were seated right away when we arrived which was great because it was a Friday evening so I thought it might be packed. Our waitress was super attentive during our visit and quick to grab anything we needed. We also had a great hibachi chef for our dinner experience. One thing is that they sat two other groups with us and I thought it was a bit crowding for us but I get that they need to get as many people in. Just would have been nice to not feel so cramped. The food was great though! My husband and I ordered the crispy crab wontons and Gyoza for our appetizer. Both were good! The wontons could have had more filling. Gyoza was perfect! For our main course we got the Sea and land for 2 which included Filet mignon, shrimp and chicken. The portions are HUGE, I honestly feel like ours could have fed 4 people. It was a lot for just two people but it tasted delicious! The meat was very juicy and had lots of flavor. My husband and I both felt the yum yum sauce was very thin and watered down though. Overall had a great dinner experience and the food was amazing!

    Great spot for large groups! We had a party of 35 and booked in advance for an early Sunday night birthday dinner. They seated us right away in a private room, which was awesome. We had four hibachi chefs, and they were all hilarious and super interactive,great teamwork the entire time. Our server was also super friendly and gave me great sushi recommendations. I tried the Crazy Girl Roll, and it had the perfect crunch, plus you could tell the chef put effort into the presentation. Our group ordered a variety of hibachi dishes, and the portions were generous. If you're looking for good sushi and a fun hibachi experience, definitely check this place out! Plenty of parking since it's right off Thompson Lane, and there are lots of bathroom stalls. The only downside is the small waiting area--if you have a big party, you might have to wait outside.

    We were in Murfreesboro decided to eat lunch, had a table side Hibachi meal. Shrimp and side of scallops, vegetables one fried rice one white rice, they served fried rice on both. Seafood was old and smelled bad, tasted fishy. Charged for a whole meal when ordered a side of scallops 4 with nothing else. I wish we would have waited until we got to Tullahoma could have eaten fresh delicious seafood at Yamato Tullahoma.

    One of the better sushi and habachi in town! Great drinks to go with all the fine food. They now have beer and drink specials. You'll love the bartender and the habachi chefs. It's always a lively place no matter where your sitting. It's definitely not quiet at times especially when there's a celebration of some sort but that's why it's great! You can hear all the joy everyone is having.

    Very fresh food, great sushi bar, attentive servers. I came a Saturday night and they were busy but didn't have to wait. I will be back.

    One of my favorite spots for Japanese cuisine. We came here for lunch, and they were pretty busy, but the service was pretty quick for how busy they were. Our server was very nice and friendly. She did a great job. I had the crunchy shrimp roll and it was perfect! At some places, the shrimp can be kind of gamey, but not here! I loved it here! I also had the steak hibachi. It was pretty good. No complaints about it at all. The fried rice on my plate was my favorite. The rice was very soft and flavorful. In all, I didn't have a bad experience and always recommend people to come here. It's one of my favorite spots when I crave Japanese cuisine.

The staff were attentive throughout the meal, and the food was the definition of comfort food. I ordered the Veggie Mandu, Jjajang Myun, and Tangsuyuk, and every dish was excellent with generous portion sizes. The Veggie Mandu had an incredibly crispy exterior with a rich, savory umami flavor. I've had Jjajang Myun at several other restaurants, and while this version wasn't my favorite, it was still solid and enjoyable. The Tangsuyuk was the standout--it was perfectly crispy on the outside while remaining tender inside, and the sauce struck a great balance of sweetness without being overpowering, making it easy to keep reaching for another bite. Overall, it was a fantastic experience, and I'll definitely be back to try the desserts.

It's a comfy place, plenty of of space, plenty of parking. But you will return, again and again, for the quality Korean-centric food. Really impressed with the dumplings apps, crispy and tasty. The Korean cheese corn is solid. The complimentary sides are great--liked the kimchi, the potato salad and the radishes. So good, and fun. The chicken katsu is the best in town, with a perfect salad accompaniment. Really impressed with the zesty kkanpung chicken. You will want to lick the sauce from the bowl but please restrain yourself. Was there for an early lunch so trying the bar needs to come later but there is a separate bar section, if you care for just apps and cocktails. Servings are generous. More enough to share. Considering the quality and quantity, prices are fair.

From the food to the service, everything exceeded our expectations. The first thing that stood out was their small plate concept, and I absolutely loved it. I enjoy trying a variety of dishes instead of committing to just one entrée, and this concept is something I wish more restaurants would adopt. We ended up trying almost half the menu and loved nearly every dish. A huge shout-out to our server, Nestor. He welcomed us warmly, was cheerful throughout the evening, and his recommendations were spot on. He truly made the dinner even more enjoyable. We started with a couple of mocktails, and the Purple Haze was refreshing and delicious. Here are some of our favorites: MI Cucumber - Smashed cucumber with soy dressing, crunchy chili oil, and cilantro. Simple, refreshing, and packed with flavor. Plantain - Fried plantains topped with sriracha goat cheese, cilantro, and crunchy gremolata. The sriracha goat cheese paired perfectly with the sweet plantains. K-Pop Chicken - Korean sweet and spicy popcorn chicken with great flavor and a perfect balance of sweetness and heat. Dumplings - Homemade steamed dumplings with edamame, truffle, yuzu ponzu, and garlic confit. I really enjoyed the truffle flavor, though it may not be for everyone. Kimchi Bacon Risotto - Caramelized kimchi, applewood smoked bacon, tomato, and shrimp. One of the best dishes of the night--perfectly cooked with incredible flavor. Crispy Spicy Tuna - Spicy mayo tuna served over crispy rice. This was one of the highlights of the meal. The crispy rice was absolutely perfect. Cauliflower Taco - Crispy cauliflower with guacamole, creamy miso, and tsiran spice. The filling was flavorful, and the cauliflower was cooked perfectly. Lamb Chops - This was the only dish that felt average. The lamb was cooked well, but it was missing a bit of flavor. A little more seasoning, especially some salt, would have really elevated the dish. To finish the meal, we had the Banana Pudding with Vanilla Gelato, which was a delicious and satisfying way to end dinner. Overall, MI Kitchen completely exceeded our expectations. Amazing food, a fun small-plate concept, and outstanding service from Nestor made this a memorable experience. We'll definitely be back to explore the rest of the menu!

It's one of those places where everything is packed with flavor and every dish feels a little special. The Mi cucumber is absolutely to die for--especially when you put it on top of the dumplings. Trust me on that combo! The K-Pop chicken is AMAZING and a must-order every time. The arancini has such a flavorful and unique twist that really stands out. The spring roll was delicious too, full of flavor with just the right amount of spice. And the tacos... you cannot skip them. The beef tacos are incredible, and the cauliflower tacos are just as good. Honestly, you can't go wrong with anything here. On top of the fantastic food, the service is always great--friendly, attentive, and welcoming. Highly recommend!! Be sure to make a reservation!
