It’s not often an establishment gets five stars simply based off of the food. The location isn’t great unless you work at a nearby business(this location is closed on Saturdays and Sundays because I presume 99% of their customer base comes from the big businesses nearby), the atmosphere itself is pretty boring and fast food-y, but OHGODTHEFOOD. There used to be a location much closer to my home, and I would find myself gorging on their food all the time, but it shut down, and now I happily drive 15 minutes each way to indulge in their delicious delicious chicken teriyaki wraps. Honestly, Samurai Sam’s is the quickest(and cheapest) way to my heart. I don’t care about the dull atmosphere or the inconvenient location. It’s all about their wraps, and if you haven’t tried one, stop what your doing and go! Go right this minute! And if it’s a Saturday, go ahead and camp out until Monday. Because their food really is THAT good.

Coming to this place reminded me of a reason why I even THOUGHT about changing my name to an «American» name. I was out for lunch with a few colleagues because this place has a special for my company and it’s new so we decided to check this place out. The cashier ask me for my name and here’s how it went down: Me: «TRAM». Cashier, «really?» Me: «yea» Cashier: «How do you spell that?» Me: «T-R-A-M» Cashier: «can you spell that again?» Me:(louder) «T-R-A-M» Cashier: «REALLY? wow, T-R-A-M-P? like TRAMP?» Me: «HUH???»(note: i don’t really have that bad of an accent –if you’re wondering) This dialogue went on for a while so I decided to use my colleague’s name for my take-out. I’m not mad btw but first impression– is hard to forget ;) — now here’s the review. Chicken breast Yaki Soba bowl: I did not enjoy it– my bowl of Yaki Soba had way too much sauce. Good thing this location provide Sriracha rooster sauce so I can enjoy the chicken breast. phew. My noodles= soggy. $ 8.65 with a 10% discount for a meal(came with a medium drink and an eggroll. Two other colleagues had Yaki Soba as well and both of them said — «Go easy on the sauce Samurai Sam’s!» One persn had the Chicken Ceasar salad– he said it had too much dressing and the flavor was too strong(too much vinegar). Another of my colleagues had the chocolate banana smoothie from Frullati and he loved it!(a lot!) literally down the whole cup right when we step outside. I would highly reccommend everyone to try this place out because it is a nice place for the Buckeye area. Don’t expect too much but not a bad place to try– the manager there is very friendly as well. Thumbs up!
