Samurai Sushi — Restaurant in Turlock

Me and my boyfriend LOVE coming here. We come here often and we will keep on doing so because… 1- The service, the people that work there are so nice so friendly and they are just the best. They work very hard and they do their very best in everything that they do. We love going in there because they are so nice and so welcoming they keep the place clean and to be honest when the place gets packed and there is a lot of people they still work very hard and fast to bring food and to catch up with everyone. So if your in those times when the place is full and it takes a while for them to come to you BE PATIENT BECAUSE YOU WONT REGRET IT their service is the absolute best and so is their food. 2- Their food, The first time me and my boyfriend went there we didn’t know what to get so we both chose something completely random. When they gave us the food we tried it and IT WAS THE BEST. So we kept coming back more and more and at this point our goal is to try every single thing in the menu. Many times we have ordered so much food we struggled to make space on the table. BUT THAT WAS JUST HOW GOOD THEIR FOOD IS. Sometimes we order too much food BUT ITS OK WE PUT IT IN A BOX AND EAT IT LATER. Even cold it’s good. We absolutely love their food and I’m not sure if we’re even half ways to the whole menu 3- The atmosphere. The first time we went there it was so welcoming so nice and even tho it was our first time we were already so comfortable. Yes shy at first because we were new but the whole place plus the workers made it so comfortable and it was the best ever. We love it when we enter and it has a dark setting in there it is very comforting. We love the decorations that they have a everywhere and we appreciate how clean the bathroom is and how neat they are matching with the theme and how it’s always so clean and so is the whole place. So that sushi restaurant really is our comfort place to go to and eat and chill. And we recommend it 100x♾️% We also loved seeing the place change and grow the more we went. And I’m pretty sure a worker spoke in Spanish for my boyfriend HE WAS SHOCKED AND SO WAS I SO THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! we love that place SO MUCH!!!🫶 (Also we absolutely loved that ringtone when the door opened what...

First off, the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. If this review comes off as negative, it's because of the dishware and not the staff. The staff were excellent.

On to the food. I asked what kind of tea was offered, and was told, "hot green tea". Imagine going into an American restaurant and asking about their soda selection, and being told "cold sodas", or a French restaurant with "chilled wine". It is just not particularly useful to know when considering food pairings. Is it a sencha? Genmaicha? Jasmine?

I didn't try the sushi, but ordered a bowl of udon. Flavor and composition-wise, I prefer my own homemade udon, being from an Asian background myself. But that's not important, I ordered the chef's udon, and that was his udon. I didn't order my udon. My problem was with the bowl. The edge of the bowl was slanted. It's hard to explain, and I've never seen anything like it, so I included a picture. Now, go and Google "slanted bowl". Do you see any pictures of the bowl containing soup? No. Because it's not a bowl you serve soup in. And again, the bowl is slanted. Where do you rest your chopsticks when you're not using them? The chopstick rest, which wasn't available at the restaurant. Otherwise, across the dish/bowl with your food. Except the bowl is slanted, so the chopsticks roll right off. Where am I supposed to be resting my chopsticks?

Seating was honestly fine, it wasn't a large area, but there was some single seats up front and a few larger tables. It's about what I'd expect from the...
