I ordered the Oysi Roll and the Spicy salmon roll. The Oysi Roll was light and creamy, and both…read morerolls were very tasty with extremely generous portions. These rolls are big and filling and easily the largest sushi rolls I've ever had, which definitely justifies the cost. I can usually finish two sushi rolls easily but these rolls were so big I happily ended up with leftovers. The Oysi Roll was filled with cream cheese, shrimp, and cucumber and topped with salmon. The Spicy salmon roll had cream cheese and cucumber inside and was finished with large, generous heaps of spicy salmon. The portion of cream cheese felt balanced in the Oysi Roll but was a bit much in the spicy salmon, which also wasn't very spicy. That said, I loved how vibrant and fresh the scallions were on the spicy salmon and the fish in both rolls tasted fresh. There are two small tables outside the food truck, but this is definitely more of a to go spot. I'd recommend ordering ahead by text since there's usually a wait. I'll definitely be back to try more rolls!

The menu was curated by Chef Andrew Huang and incorporated different flavors from different cultures. I did the zero alcohol pairing and Mike did the normal version. Each drink was curated to pair perfectly with what we ate. Chef Andrew was amazing he would tell us about the dishes and the ingredients used. I fell in love with the uni (sea urchin) in Japan. Chef Andrew recommended the caviar instead. His recommendation was spot on! The caviar blew my mind I am now converted. I understand now! I highly recommend the experience! We can't wait to come back to try the new menus!

Appetizer was almost cold by the time it got to our table. The drinks took forever to come out, and I ordered the same thing both times; the first was fine (different looking and tasting from all the times I've had it before), and the second was undrinkable. I tried to flag down the waiter for a replacement, but at that point we had already paid and the hassle of waiting 20 more minutes for a drink that might be bad wasn't even worth waiting for the waiter to come back (which he didn't, even though he had walked past twice and not looked in our direction). Really disappointed after having a great experience every time in the past. Sushi did taste as great as always, it was just overshadowed by the nasty drink and slow service. I don't think we will return after this, even though this was our favorite spot prior.

Fish: always fresh and of the highest quality Rice: perfectly sticky, not over/under cooked Veggies: avocado is fresh and just sliced Toppings: the roe had just the right amount of flavor Construction: wrapped tightly and cleanly If highly suggest the Volcano & Lobstah Wagyu rolls; they are my favorites!

We've been regulars at Samurai Blue for years and have never been disappointed. The sushi is…read moreconsistently fresh, and the service is always good. While we've only ordered sushi (so can't speak to other dishes), our favorites include the salmon nigiri (which comes topped with thin lemon slices) and the Kyoto roll. Their rolls stand out--unique without being intimidating--putting a creative spin on classics. If you prefer simpler flavors, the crunchy tuna and crunchy spicy salmon rolls are both excellent. For something with more heat, try the tuna Summer of Love or the spicy tuna nigiri--both are flavorful, spicy treats. The restaurant sits on the second floor near the Ybor Center. Parking is limited, so we usually use the garage a few blocks away and walk. Overall, Samurai Blue is a wonderful spot we return to whenever we can!

The food was amazing, I am still dreaming about the carbonara 10/10, Peking duck shareable for 4 people or more for $125, it's a great deal. Sushi options, you can make specialized drinks- I ordered a lychee margarita super yum. The maguro Carparcio is a must ordered appetizer as it has some caviar on top and a yummy cream. The flavors blended so well together. I wanted to eat more. Garlic prawns were delish, and shareable, the braised short rib udon was also tasty. The salmon crudo was 3/5, it could've used more flavor. End of the night they offered us free ice cream- tasted like coffee with other delish vanilla and crushed ube cookie.

However, although the restaurant wasn't busy and we had reservations, it took a while for us to be seated. The hostess acknowledged us, but there was still a noticeable delay before we were shown to our table. The service was also quite slow throughout our visit. It took a while to get our check despite the restaurant not being busy. That said, the staff was very kind and courteous. The menu is quite extensive with lots of options to choose from. We ordered the kinmedai sashimi, which tasted good, but the portion size and quality didn't quite justify the price. The spicy karaage with vegetable fried rice was flavorful, though it leaned more toward Korean fried chicken than what we expected. My partner had the bento box with grilled salmon (an additional $3), and while it was enjoyable, the portion and quality didn't really make the extra cost feel worthwhile. The highlight of the meal was definitely the soufflé pancakes which were light, fluffy, and paired perfectly with the matcha cream. Overall, the experience was decent, but not compelling enough for us to return.

We sat outside and ordered the meatballs to start mmmmm they were not so good sadly. To order I think my sisters got the salmon and the Yaki soba while I got the bulgogi beef. The salmon was very good but the yaki soba was not seasoned very well and my beef mmmm not good either. I guess I just don't get Bulgogi beef. Why I'm giving 3 stars though is because I ordered the cherry blossom tea and the water wasn't even in the SLIGHTEST bit hot so the tea was not able to brew. Therefore basically I was served a second cup of water. I'm not saying do better to your restraint, but to your bartenders... DO BETTER!
