My supervisor bought the school team lunch on Jan 30, 2026. He told us the food was amazing! No lies told! I had the chicken nachos and I was
in heaven. I’m going back today, and that will be my lunch, dinner and snack. Great portions.

Bad service. The food is nasty. They were so rude when I ordered to carry out. There was a fly in the food. Get rid of them:)

My family has been eating here for years. The food is consistently good with large portions. You can't go wrong with any of the dishes, especially the more authentic ones. Whether we order fish, chicken, or anything else we always leave happy and full. It's owned and run by an amazing family and we love supporting a small business like this.

The service here is high quality, feels like you're eating a meal at home. The pricing's reasonable, especially for the large quantity of food that you get. The food is also phenomenal, the pupusas are great, and any of the fajita plates are safe bets. The spicy sausage is a family favorite.

Gross. Disgusting. Needs immediate improvements.
My son picked up dinner to-go from Samanthas the other night, and we were all so excited based on the reviews. Unfortunately, out experience was less Mb than desirable.

First, his encounter with ordering and dealing with ordering staffj was disappointing from the onset. They were unfriendly and seemed annoyed when he had a few questions about placing our order.

This was to-go/ carryout, so we got home and started to dig in. Things seemed fine until a few bites in, my son found a ROACH!!! Then upon a closer look, a fly was also identified. Needless to say, I was grossed out, completely. The restaurant was closed by the time we ate, otherwise I would have taken the food back. My son, however, is so kind that he didn't even want to return because he was still affected by the poor treatment he received when he was simply trying to order the food. He threw the food away and went to bed hungry. What a complete waste of money and a huge let down. Which, by the way, this place isn't cheap!

Sqmathas, please get a quality exterminator in there ASAP. And, work on training all employees to provide better customer service, even to those who may not be Spanish speaking. Come on people!

The Lomo Soltado was absolutely delicious 😋 the baked stuffed chicken with Spinach and mushrooms and avacado sauce melted in your mouth! Everything was fantastic including the service!

My partner and I have been on the hunt for reliably good fajitas and Samantha's delivers. We have also enjoyed the Chile Relleno dish and basically anything we've ordered.

I am typically focused on the food above other factors but the service at Samantha's is also excellent as is the consistency from the kitchen.

Samantha's beat out over five other local restaurants for the dish we were hunting for and we've been back many times to enjoy their excellent fajitas.
