Soowoo Japanese Steakhouse Review

Love this place! They don't take reservations so you have to make sure to come with plenty of time! Food is amazing and service is great!

Being going to the same place for 15 years.....excellent A+++

Food was great and so were the chefs. Great experience. The wait is really long though, about an hour and a half.

Great service delicious food, a bit pricey but overall a great experience #datenight #healthy

Used to be great, but unfortunately the quality of the service and food is going down. Also, they take forever to answer the phone when you call to order. I waited 15mins just to be transferred to the correct person to take my order. Smh.

Awesome service, great experience. Chefs are fun and friendly. 5 stars!!

Great food and awesome presentation with the chefs!

First of all, I was extremely nervous about going there because I recently found out that I have a severe soy allergy. I didn't think there was going to be anything that I could eat or that I was going to be exposed in some way to my allergen. Maggie was amazing in confirming and reconfirming with me and the chef my order minus soy. She expressed concern about not making a mistake with my order and I greatly appreciated that. And Chef Sergio also relieved my concerns by confirming what he was serving me. I felt so secure with our interaction that I was happy that I was able to enjoy my meal without any worries. Since I'm new to this "allergic to soy" label, I'm still apologizing insistently for something that is out of my control and I fear of being that pain in the a%$ customer. But Maggie and Chef Sergio didn't make me feel that way at all. Their tentativeness was reassuring and I was extremely happy and grateful to them for contributing to my enjoyment of not only Samurai but also our celebration of my mom's birthday. His dry sense of humor had us rolling. What an enjoyable dinner! I know my children will be talking about their time with Chef Sergio for a while. I'm ecstatic to find this gem in South Florida. I'm looking forward to our next visit soon!

Expensive,,, we order the seafood. lobster I don't remember seeing babies SHRIMP I remember the scallops special rice I don't understand what is so special a lottttttttt mushroom a lot of veggies yes to price I dont come back I spent 175.00 no happy

I truly recommend this restaurant the food was delicious and the service outstanding this was my first time going there!!

I come to Samauri about once a week. Today the guy we had must have been new. He did not season the food well. Then told me only certain meals come with mushrooms, when I asked why he didn't give me any. I never heard of that before today. At least the waitress was ok. This was the worst lunch experience I have had and to think I was really looking forward to coming here today.

Great good family friendly seeing the food being made in front of you never gets old.

The food is always good, only complaint is the wait time at the table, way too long.

Because it very clear and organized the cooks are very good I was there on my birthday 25. Only thing I order some thing to go I pay I didn't not get it I love it when I go to England I always tell everyone obout samurai and when I travel to the st Croix usvi to and stvincent yes good place nice people to keep it up

The food was good oh my God an our chef was Carlos thumbs up to you Carol's you are a people person

A meal and a show... great family outing or date...

Good place .. delicious food with availability for the chef to prepare your food at your own table with show. Prices are not so reasonable.

The service was excellent! The food was also amazing and served in a timely manner.

The service and entertainment experience was sub-par. The chef was not at all entertaining and seemed to only be doing the standard job procedures. The bathrooms were dirty, which should have been my wake-up call to run out of there and not look back. Instead, I continued my dining and after paying a bill of over $150.00...I ended up with a night of diarrhea and an expensive take out tray of leftovers that I had to discard. Needless to say, I will not be going back and I do not recommend this restaurant.

Nice place but the food wasn't as good as it's been known to be. Seems like the prices have gone up but quality has gone down

I love Samurai Triple, it tastes good especially Vegetable Tempura.

The best food I ever tasted but the wait is a little long but it s fine

Went in at 8PM, and the wait time was one hour. I asked if there was any way to be served sooner and was told to have a seat at the sushi bar. Our waitress Anali, came by immediately and took our drink order, then our meal order. Our meal was served soon after. Everything was as expected, the food was great and the service was exceptional.

The food here is so good, so good. Don't get me wrong the everything they serve is delicious. And you will go home and sleep and dream about how good the food was. But you won't dream about the service you get. A long wait time, they don't do reservations. The people working their can be a bummer. This one lady I was asking a question to kept ignoring me. And I left Samurai and went somewhere else to eat. Besides management food is yummy just be patient I guess. Or leave while you can? Perhaps.

Great food!!! The staff is awesome! I can't have dairy so they cooked special for me with no problems! The passion fruit lemonade is amazing!

The service is not at the same level of the food.
Food: 5 stars (the red sauce is a killer).
Service : 3 stars (1 waiter to serve 3 tables with 8 people each).

Our Chef Carlos was great! We celebrate my son's birthday here every year. This year after being seated at our table we did have to wait a long time before our chef came out. Guess it was worth the wait because he was entertaining. Then they forgot to bring out the cake I had brought in from outside.

Had a good time with my wife, food was good and the chef was very nice...

Food is delicious, their garlic butter gives all the flavor. Restaurant is dark, and crowded. Parking may be an issue.

Delicious Fresh Food. We Absolutely Loved Our Night and Our Drinks were Phenomenal. Lovely Staff Wonderful Chef We All in our table had a Divine Evening

Great environment, delicious food and drinks, and fun experience! Great entertainment for kids as well!

Excellent restaurant, efficient and efficient service the best.

The food was good as expected but this time our waiter lacked good service. He got 3 orders incorrect, and after salad and soup was served, he seemed to disappear. Other staff and mgr came and assisted with our group. Our birthday dinner guests was disappointed. This is usually a nice gathering place to dine but this visit left me frustrated about our service.

Today I returned a fried rice that had a hair wrapped !!!! I didn't ask for another one because I was so grossed out !!!! How is it possible that a restaurant of its level where you pay a plate of 40 dollars has these mistakes.

I like samurai but do you guys realize that every time they respond back to you guys they just change the name. And but the same thing over and over again. That tells you they really don't care what you have to say.

The food was delicious, but the chefs lacked showmanship. The energy coming off of them was more obligation to do their job than them actually enjoying what they do. When doing the onion volcano, the chef at our table sounded distant, almost monotone. Not sure if he was having an off day, but it was still noticeable. Otherwise the service was quick, efficient, and the food was superb. Would go again.

Sometimes it's hit and miss when you come here depending on who your chef is but you gotta love the birthday certificates

One of my favorites! Everything is amazing here lol, seriously. The chefs continue the long tradition of traditional Japanese Tempanyaki. Can get a bit pricey, but always worth it. Leftovers are the name of the game here. The food is even better the day after. Don't forget extra shrimp sauce!!

You just can t go wrong dining at Samurai! Delicious food preparing right in front of you, and a show to go along with it! The chefs have great personalities and are so professional. It s a bit pricey, but worth every penny! Pro tip: Join the birthday club for a $30 birthday dinner certificate!

I am in love with this place. The restaurant is very beautiful and the presentation from the chef is great. Very friendly and great customer service. I live pretty far from here but the drive is worth it. The food is amazing. This is a great place to bring families. And the shrimp sauce is and the fried rice so good. I recommend this place to everyone

Expectacular very good treatment and very rich food

I ordered online to pick up at the restaurant. The order was ready as soon as I arrived. The portions were good in size. The food tasted very good...

Great place for lunch or dinner. Noel was our chef! Very active and enthusiastic when cooking for us. I recommend going weeks day... It could get really crowded, but it worth it. It took is 50 min for the table.

The attention is good, the food is the same and the prices are not so high without mentioning the chef's show at the table

I would rate it a 3 just because that last 3 times my experience has been bad. I always give them the benefit of the doubt and try. Usual wait times are high so I sit on self sitting area when available. Service has been bad but the food is great. I would keep coming back, in mind that I would just have to wait it out. Lol

My Samurai experiences are always pleasant; however, I must point out that there was a distinct smell (mildew, dirty carpet) that was by my table (we sat in the corner) and the floor had food everywhere as if it hadn't been cleaned after the previous patrons. Not my typical experience. The server and chef were both very accommodating with excellent service.

Excellent. You can't go wrong here. Good food. Love the salad dressing.

I LOVEEEEE Samurai! I celebrated my dads birthday here and he loved it. Amazing food. Wonderful staff and chef.

The food is top-notch. The pricing is well worth it, and the service phenomenal.
