Everything I've had there has been delicious! My favorites are cashew chicken, General Tso chicken, and beef and broccoli. Their fried rice is awesome! Their service is great!

Don't get the buffet. The food was hot but nothing on the buffet and it is very overpriced. Even after waiting a while, still nothing was added. Just old rice, a very spicy chicken dish, and old soup. The rice looks like it's old as did the soup and the restaurant had only been open for an hour. The ice cream machine doesn't work. There's also no salt and pepper on the table. The person working was kind.

As a loyal customer, since they first opened, I have not been able to find another Chinese restaurant to compare the quality, quantity, and hospitality. The owners are genuinely amazing people, who care about their customers and the community. When you imagine a small mom and pop restaurant this is what will come to mind. I encourage you to try their buffet and the best Crab Rangoon in Iowa!

Local family owned and operated small town Chinese food establishment. It isn't fancy, but the food is dependable and tasty. Give Sam's a try when you are in Clarion, IA. At lunch, they offer a bountiful buffet.

Vegetarian options: Willing to make the Menu customizable. I've ordered just about every "chicken" dish available with tofu instead of the chicken.

Sams has the BEST Chinese food around but we have learned to call ahead and take it home because the owners bring their kids and they run around and are way to noisy. When we go out to eat we want quiet.

Warren Curry

Its a small establishment, with huge flavor. This is my favorite Chinese restaurant. If you like crab rangoons, check Sam's out. Buffet over the lunch hour most days.
