It is still recommended that customers with allergies specify their needs when ordering from the menu. The owner is credited with keeping the staff motivated and efficient, contributing to the restaurant's overall positive atmosphere.
While there are occasional issues with bathroom odors and leaks from the AC units and grill hoods during heavy rain, the restaurant caters well to customers with dietary restrictions, particularly those with shellfish, gluten, and other food allergies.

The Spicy Tuna Roll and the dinner for two, which includes Filet Mignon, Shrimp, Lobster, and Scallops, have received high praise. Overall, Samurai Japanese Steak House & Sushi Bar is highly recommended, with the potential to be among the best hibachi restaurants in North Central Florida with a few improvements.
