The worker named Gil was very mean and had an attitude!! Sushi Samurai serves up undeniably good food -- the rolls are fresh, well-crafted, and full of flavor, making it a go-to spot for sushi lovers. The presentation is clean, the ingredients taste high quality, and the menu offers a solid variety for both traditional and adventurous eaters. If you're coming purely for the sushi, it's worth the visit. However, the dining experience is dampened by the attitude of the staff, which can feel cold or even outright rude. One standout example was an interaction with a worker named Gil, who was especially mean and dismissive. Instead of offering help or a welcoming tone, he came off impatient and short-tempered, which made the overall environment feel uncomfortable. It's a shame, because the food deserves praise -- but the service, especially from Gil, leaves a lot to be desired. With just a little more kindness and hospitality, Sushi Samurai could be exceptional instead of just good. read more

The service is terrible me and my friends almost got kicked out for laughing. His name is gul and he slammed the check on our table.

We arrived during dinner rush and expected a wait, but were sat promptly by a friendly waitress. We were given a menu and water upon sitting down in the little comfy booth. We ordered the Miso Soup to start, the Philadelphia Roll, Samurai Crunch Roll and the Spicy Salmon Roll. The miso soup was hot and delicious, served alongside a complimentary cucumber salad. The rolls were good, but colder than we would've liked. The standout was The Philadelphia Roll, with melt-in-your-mouth salmon happily marrying the cucumber and cream cheese. I prefer fresh salmon rather than smoked salmon in my Philly, so my tastebuds were delighted! Overall a great experience, and will be back for more. read more

I love this place! Their sushi is always fresh and so so good. To say they are busy is an understatement but they are an amazingly well oiled machine. There's a robust sit-down business but and even stronger carry-out business. It never stops! This is clearly a tribute to the quality of their sushi. I advise ordering online for all carry out. They have a really nice menu and you'll want to take your time ordering. The parking lot is a nightmare so if you're doing take out... I highly advise 2 people pick up. One to drop/drive, the other to run in and get your order. Trust me, it's worth it! read more

This is definitely one of the best sushi places around the metro Detroit area. I would give it a solid place in the top 3 places for sushi. Growing up in Seattle gives me a big appetite for fresh fish and this place is amazing. I really appreciate that they usually seem stocked with toro or belly tuna which I liken it to sushi butter. The samurai crunch roll will knock your socks off. The staff is always incredible and friendly and their personalities make every visit a pleasure. I have been coming to this place for over 16 years and it has never wavered on quality and service. read more

We recently moved to the area and sushi samurai quickly became our new neighborhood staple / favorite spot!! Every roll we have tried has been delicious and fried rice was amazing, they're usually busy but try to have as quick service as possible read more

My favorite sushi place in West Bloomfield so far! The rolls are delicious and unique. Try the S&T roll. It has lemon on top which sounds really odd, but is amazing. The palate cleanser (cucumbers) that they bring out at the beginning of the meal is also delicious. read more

Great food great sushi great service always perfect for pick up. Samurai Crunchyroll, the Best Buy far.

My family has frequent this restaurant since opening through expansion. I thought only my immediate family had gotten sick after eating here. Then my mom shared that she had gotten ill as well from eating at Sushi Samurai on a different date, time, and menu item. Then my sister and niece explained that they stop coming for the same reason. I came back after a few months to see if maybe it was just coincidental; only to find a dirty kitchen and bathooms. Hopefully they read this review. Then decide to do a complete sanitation and food safety training for team (just as a precaution). read more

I've been coming here since 2010. The sushi and the service has always been amazing. I hadn't been back here in almost 10 years, and still to this day, nothing compares to their spicy crab salad, samurai crunch roll, and salsa roll. So glad this place is still around! read more

Sushi Samurai is my kid's favorite restaurant. The staff is very friendly and we love the food.

I rarely get a taste for sushi, but was craving it, so, based on the reviews, I went to Sushi Samurai. I was sorely disappointed. I ordered carryout and the service was fast. I ordered five different rolls, and, honestly, none of them were good. Despite having various different rolls they all tasted the same, and were all too loosely rolled. The seaweed was flimsy and wet, the fish was wet, and there was rice on three sides of every roll. After having a taste for something (getting my mouth watering for it), I can say that I am very disappointed. read more

This place is nothing exciting in terms of sushi. I've been here a few times and have never really been WOWed by anything but maybe that's just because we get sushi. When you dine here you'll see tons of Korean/Japanese fusion dishes coming out but I've never tried those. As far as sushi, everything kind of tastes the same. They have a good roll that has super thinly sliced lemon on top and capers with smoked salmon. If you're on the "west side" though I'd suggest you go to Kabukki instead. Service here is also super slow- we had to ask for our bill two or three times. This place is just okay in my book read more

Best sushi in Michigan. I've tried them all I've ate everywhere no one has sushi like this place. There always fresh, clean and delicious.

This is a review based purely on takeout. The food is always ready on time, and I really enjoy every roll I've tried. My personal favorites are the red dragon and the yum yum roll. The seaweed salad is good but it seems like it comes frozen and gets thawed out. On one occasion I did notice it was a little frosty. In any event, if you go and get sushi and nothing else, this is a solid take out joint. read more

waitress will chase you out of the restaurant demanding an extra tip, even when we already gave a tip. Great food though and every one else is a good waiter/waitress just out run the crazy tip woman. read more

There definitely is no shortage of sushi restaurants in the area, but this one is hands down my favorite. The quality of the food is definitely better than other places I have been to, and that is where the four stars comes from. The service here is ok, they don't go out of their way for the customers and it seems like they just want it to be over with. This is pretty much the kind of service I have come to expect when coming to a place like this, but the food is definitely worth it. This time I came with a group of 5 women for lunch. The waitress wasn't writing down our order and one of the woman I was with pointed it out since a few members of our group were very picky eaters. (Low and behold she forgot that persons salad lol.) Three of us ordered the yaki udon with chicken and the other two split a bunch of sushi rolls. I love the yaki udon from here, I drive all the way out here because I crave it sometimes. Its hard to describe why its so good but it just tastes amazing and is very satisfying. The sushi looked really good and they got everything right. One thing I like that they'll do for you if you ask is put the spicy mayo on the inside of the sushi roll. In my opinion, this is one of the better sushi restaurants in the area and is definitely worth checking out. read more

I'm a very basic person when it comes to Sushi as it doesn't take much to impress me. I went with my three go to rolls: Shrimp Tempura, avocado and spicy tuna, with a side of spicy mayo. All three rolls tasted delightful. On top of the that the staff were very attentive. Can't wait to go back! read more

I have been coming here at least twice a month for 10 years. Food is fantastic but the past 5-6 times i've come in there has been the MOST obnoxious, horrible, nauseating music playing. The following artists have been ruining my evening: Cardi B Lil Pump Lizzo Lil B Migos Basically every terrible trap / ad-lib song imaginable has been playing. Someone NEEDS to put an end to this. Until then myself nor my family will be eating here. Its very uncomfortable. Best M read more

I always order no scallions when I'm in town, since it's in the spicy tuna. Great yaki soba. randomly came across this old Yelp review and bumping to 4 stars from 3 bc it's good sushi ngl. read more

Great stop, good prices and sushi is pretty good. Nothing too extraordinary but a great place for a quick bite if you're having that sushi crave. read more

This place has really gone down hill since the owners got convicted for tax evasion. My daughter and I went there for sushi. Place was half empty. We ordered and then we sat for over 40 minutes. Six tables that were seated after us got their food while we sat wondering if we were forgotten. I tried waving down one of their waitresses, but they just ignored me, so we just ended up leaving the place and going a couple miles away to a better sushi place. The service is apparently very hit or miss now. AVOID SUSHI SAMURAI *Update: We have since gone back and tried it again. It was better this time. At minimum, we weren't ignored. At most, it didn't take so long that we had to walk out. I'm updating my review to 3 stars from 1. read more

Haven't been here in months but thought I'd try with out of town friend. In a nut shell: Miso soup - lacked flavor, salty. Think it was instant. Ginger salad - All iceberg lettuce that sits in a cold refrigerator as bowl was freezing. Few rolls - Fair. Not super fresh and looked poorly out together. Service - ok. Nothing very friendly just got the job done. Too bad. Was once very good. read more

We have been ordering from here for years and all of the sudden the quality is terrible! It's started when I got really sick after eating there. I asked about the ingredients in the seaweed salad I got an eye roll and she tells me, "well, it comes in a box." They never answer their phone. I'm done with this place. read more
