Mikuni was closed due to maintenance, so my friend and I ended up having lunch here. Typically, we meet at Mikuni and spend about two hours dining in. Samurai Sushi was always appealing as you head east on HWY 50, and after so many years, today happened to be that day. We walked in and got seated. The restaurant was clean and seemed to have local dinners. Order Yakitori and Soft Shell Crab for appetizer, which was okay. I ordered some rolls for us off the menu, and one of the rolls was recommended by the server. Two of three rolls ordered came with some sort of gravy and looked more like rice and gravy. I was surprised to see this combination.
Overall, I didn't like the roll and had plenty left on our plates. Service was okay.
My first experience was not worthy enough for me to return.

While the lunch specials are great this place has been a favorite to have sushi group outings. Rolls are large, tasty, and we'll presented

I ordered the chef's special and was delightfully surprised. My party enjoyed their meals/drinks as well. Very nice. We'll be back.

Tried it out today. Ordered the Benson special roll and it came out not what I expected (brown soupy pic). Visually not appealing but was surprisingly delicious (contains peanuts). My companions enjoyed their meals, but the crazy monkey roll (simple roll with the soy sauce tray in pic) was stated to be a bit on the mushy side. The Folsom and the Titanic (double roll plate pic) was a hit and nicely displayed. I forgot what the last dish was, but it was said it was good.
Our server was young and very friendly.
Not a fancy place and a bit pricey for the simplicity of the plate.
Environment has potential.

I love this place! Every time we go, we are greeted with smiles. The food is always great, so when we have eaten everything, they make sure to ask if we want more. I can't say enough good things.

The sushi was better than the average. Not the small rolls, these rolls had some weight to them. Large menu to select from. Everyone was friendly. I'd come back here in a heartbeat.
Pretty good! I got the sushi special and enjoyed my meal. The "peanut" sauce was not super nutty and a bit on the sweeter side. I didn't love it, but I didn't hate it either.
