    First time we got refused service for being too many people we asked to be seated different tables they still refused to serve us

    Waterfall Roll

    This is the best sushi in the HD, period. The amount of passion and artistry is apparent in each bite. We've been coming here for close to a DECADE, and have enjoyed the consistency all throughout. 10 STARS

    I was visiting a friend who lives near Apple Valley and happened to stop by this sushi spot on the way home--and what a great find! The interior was super cozy and had a strong local vibe, like a place with lots of regulars. I thought we'd have to wait a while since it was a busy time, but the food came out surprisingly fas! Everything was fresh--from the sashimi to the variety of rolls and even the tempura. My favorites are Crispy Rice Spicy Tuna, yellowtail appetizer and crab tempura. The chef also recommended Echigo Koshihikari Beer, a light Japanese beer that was super easy to drink and paired really well with the meal. I'd definitely love to come back if I get the chance. A true local gem!

    I ordered takeout today to bring to work. I was totally blown away with the presentation of my dishes. The server was very kind and helpful. The wait was well worth it. The ambiance in the restaurant was tranquil I will definitely have to come dine in.

    Kani Tempura and Ninja roll

    The food was delicious. The food artistry by the chef...chef's kiss . Chef sent a complimentary veggie tempura. I ordered the Kani Tempura 10/10....I also had the Ninja roll and Salmon Crunch roll, both 10/10. Each piece was plentiful . My server-Jennifer, was friendly and accommodating!

    Mixed seafood salad

    Absolutely love this place. Always so good and always so fresh! The only downside to this sushi spot is the pricing. It's very expensive! We are always greeted and treated well here.

    More photos included from previous visits. Tip: would NOT recommend their teriyaki bowls or similar bowls (even though I haven't tried any of the other bowls before). Their sushi rolls are SO yummy and filling for their price, so I think you'll be kind of wasting your money if you just get their rice bowls. Their udon is pretty yummy and their miso soup is fine, but I really think getting their sushi rolls is definitely the best bang for your buck.

    Comp salad was delicious

    Great food and great service. Definitely would recommend or family and friends dinner. Large selection of beers, soju and sake. Kids loved the food. Also family friendly. Food pictures speak for themselves. Delicious and fresh.

    The fried veggies were delicious

    Birthday Celebration the location had enough parking space easy place to find parking. I was immediately seated the server was the great. The restaurant did have a lot of pictures of people or guest on the wall which was different. I order California roll, the roll came apart immediately which I have never came across eating at sushi restaurant. I was given a free appetizer fried shishito peppers which was the best of all the food we had. I would not be coming back unless you come back for the appetizers.

    The spot is smaller than expected but spacious. The server was really friendly and gave us a complimentary salad. Everything was really good especially "the war" roll and the edamame. The miso soup wasn't as flavorful but it was still okay. They also have specials on rolls everyday. Def will be coming back.

    We've stopped at Samurai Sushi several times over the years while driving between Las Vegas and…read moreSouthern California, and the food has always been good enough to bring us back. Unfortunately, this visit felt very different. We arrived around noon, and the restaurant was completely empty. They had several TVs, so I asked if they could put on the World Cup. Our waitress declined, explaining that when games are on, customers tend to stay long after they've finished eating. While I understand that may be their policy, it didn't feel very customer-friendly, especially with no other patrons in the restaurant. I also asked if there was an outlet where I could charge my phone. When we found a nearby table with a wall plug, I asked if we could switch tables since we'd only been served water. The waitress said it would be "too confusing for the system" because our orders had already been placed, despite the restaurant being empty. She did offer to charge my phone from an outlet in the hallway, which I appreciated. I asked if they had a few of our favorite sushi items--things like a Las Vegas roll, Orange Blossom roll, or salmon collar (all very common at sushi restaurants back home in Las Vegas). The response seemed more confused than helpful, and overall the interaction just didn't feel very welcoming. On the positive side, they brought out complimentary shishito peppers and radish as an appetizer, which was a nice touch. My daughter really enjoyed the salmon teriyaki, and we also liked the chicken teriyaki roll. At the end of the meal, we had to flag someone down for our check and for to-go boxes while the staff was busy cleaning tables. We were handed a wet plastic bag to pack up our leftovers, which was an odd way to end the experience. Overall, the food was better than the customer service. We'd still consider stopping again because the food is decent, but we hope the hospitality improves. A more welcoming attitude would go a long way.

    There are at least two types of Thai restaurants: the generic, load the peanuts and the sugar into…read morethe Pad Thai to please the uninitiated kind; and the we serve the fish with the head on and the lemongrass lights up your taste buds kind. This is the latter. Walking into the restaurant, tucked into a strip mall, I was getting ready to fire up the generic alarm. But then the sweet lady that was our server disarmed me with her speed, kindness, and directness. Then the cucumber salad came out. Even if you like Veggie Tales it'll make you kiss Larryboy good bye. Next came the yellow curry--it took me back to my favorite hole-in-the-wall Thai place in NY, and I was in curry heaven. Incredible taste, hearty potatoes and carrots, and a happy tummy. Like I tipped the bowl to drink the last of it. But beware! They play these addictive videos of people making street food on the wall-mounted TV that will make you want to a) buy all the food and b) take a bite out of the screen. If at first you don't succeed, Thai Thai again.

    I made a few togo orders and one of them was wrong. The service was wonderful and fast but the food…read morewas ok. I ordered the pad Thai chicken and shrimp and the noodles weren't all covered in the pad Thai sauce, they were lacking flavors. The order had all the elements to make it spectacular but just not saucy enough. The beef drunken noodles were delicious but the beef had no flavor, and had a rubbery texture. I ate all the noodles but spared the beef. I recommend getting chicken shrimp or tofu in this order, I did not like the beef. The satay chicken was delicious, very tender and tasty. And I ordered spicy basil chicken fried rice, but instead I got spicy basil chicken with a side of jasmine rice. The dish was delicious, but not what I ordered. I also ordered the sticky mango rice and that was delicious and met my expectations but I do believe a better version exists at Lotus Thai. I highly recommend to double check your Togo orders before leaving the restaurant especially when placing more than 3 dishes. The price is very reasonable and they provide large portions. A dish can feed 2 people. This place was big and clean. It's located in a area with other shops and a large parking lot.

I wish they would make everything into a more healthier version because there's not a lot of healthy food up in the deserert when I'm up their Also, when I have MSG or when I have stuff that is not healthy.
