This was a surprise birthday celebration for a friend. They were extremely accommodating in taking floral decor the day before and had it on the table when we arrived. The service and food was amazing.

We've eaten here many times over the years - I remember long waits in 2020 as they were so popular, but this place hasn't aged well... We ate there tonight for the first time in a while and didn't have a great experience. The "salads" were just a few chunks of lettuce on a plate with a runny dressing. The fried calamari was rock-hard; never in my life have I ever had to spit out calamari before tonight... I got a deluxe sushi platter and most of it was good, but one piece of sashimi had skin on it, another piece was harder than raw onion - I didn't eat it. The sushi rolls were crudely rolled - looked like the work of inexperienced sushi chefs (speaking from the perspective of someone who has tried to make rolls himself!) And the total for 2 adults and a pre-teen was $92 with no alcohol... I fear it was our last visit. (Service was fine; waitress was quick and pleasant, but we were one of only 2 guests...)

While I was waiting for my family to arrive , the waitress was complaining about the owner. And then when I was in my car , she comes running out the door with the receipts. She didn’t like the tip we left. I tipped her over 20%. I have never had that kind of experience before and a day later I’m still upset about the experience

This has become one of our favorite places for Japanese food. My kids love the Udon and Tempura. The sashimi is delicious, and I love that they also have bento boxes and hibachi menu options.
Absolutely wonderful. This is the first sushi restaurant that I've been to that has a dedicated section on their menu and plentiful selection for vegetarian friendly rolls. It really helped with taking out a significant amount of guess work, and back and forth questions with the wait staff. I'm so used to only having two or *maybe* three options at other places, and when I saw there were over 10 types of rolls for me to choose from, I was over the moon. The vegetable dragon roll was so good that I also decided to take one to-go. Their tofu teriyaki was also delicious. The portion is at least enough for 2 meals, and for the price, it's unbeatable. The environment is welcoming, our waitress was amazing, and their food was the highlight of my day. I'm so happy my partner and I found this place. It's become our favorite sushi restaurant after just one visit. ❤️

Dear God we will miss Samurai Sushi the most when we move out of Richmond this year. Best sushi in all of Richmond and the Habatchi is out of this world great.
WORST SERVICE EVER!!!! The food was not the best, but this was the worst service we ever experienced. When we first arrived to the restaurant, the server was too busy smoking a cigarette and told us to seat ourselves. She only brought the drinks and food out, no extra napkins, didn’t ask if we needed anything else. She barely deserved a tip, but we tipped her anyway and she complained that we did not tip her enough. Then she snatched the check out of my hand and proceeded to be nasty and curse at us. I will NEVER dine here again!!!!

Staff and management were completely disrespectful! Never had such ill mannered people in any customer service environment. The food was not cooked as it should have been and had a nasty old taste or no taste at all. Would never recommend for anyone to go there. STAY AWAY!!!
