I love this place.. friendly staffs, amazing foods and nice service
We're back in level 2 which means the return of the lunch time eateries. First stop, sushi. Stopped by this place on my hunt for what to get. Ordered a salmon and avocado roll. The salmon was super generous and fresh. A tad on the pricier side but worth it for the freshness.
Nice friendly service with tasty sushi. All ingredients are fresh. Good place to have a quick lunch.
I went to this place around 6 p.m. on Friday with a friend.
Atmosphere: 3/4
Spacious quiet place
Food: 4/4
Had chicken katsu bao bun combo ($10.50), which came with potato wedges.
Service: 3.5/4
No problem with the service at the restaurant.
Cost: 4/4
Affordable price for two bao buns with potato wedges. This is my favourite place for bao buns now.
Ordered the teriyaki chicken bento and a side of karaage chicken. The bento looked surprisingly good at first glance with salmon sashimi and a generous portion of teriyaki chicken. Salmon tasted fresh, rice was well cooked and seasoned. The tempura veges were good + one prawn. The teriyaki chicken itself was a little average, tasted a bit bland and the chicken didn't seem to be the freshest. The karaage was great - I liked the mini side salad it came with too
Thank you again for the amazing food and service! The food is delish! My boyfriend and I enjoy coming here for date nights. The ice coffee is also yum!
What can I say other than nice and yummy food, excellent service. Except parking is a bit tricky.
Donbury, katsu curry, teriyaki gyoza all good 👍
Good place to go to for lunch. Service was great and sushi tasted fresh. The lady was so nice and ambiance was lovely. Location isn’t great but I would come again.
Wait staff were very friendly and attentive. Their miso soup was nice on a cold day. We have been here for 2 visits already and enjoyed both visits. We didn't realize it was like sushi train the first time there. It's like a mini version which is good as there less people and seats were comfortable although the sushi selection was limited. We enjoyed the Bento Box and Ramens while the kids picked what they like in the revolving sushi menu. Their chocolate cake was very moist and yummy 😋 can be hard to find parking on a busy day but lots of street parking at the St Benedicts Street
Staff is extremely friendly , sushi train is something different to other Japanese casual restaurant, sukiyaki and chicken donbury is highly recommend
I have been going here at least once a fortnight for the past 6 months. Every piece of sushi off the sushi train is delicious, flavourful and reminds me of the wonderful sushi I ate in Japan when I finished this past January. None of the other sushi places that I have eaten at come close to the freshness and authenticity of the sushi served here. I especially appreciate the variety of fish on the train, in particular, the unagi (eel) nigiri which is one of my favourites.
Great price for a nice lunch. Tasty but feel the sauces are a little 'watered down' Atmosphere a bit blah. Decor needs updating and the plastic plants removed from the walls. Friendly owner.
Delicious food, and love the Japanese conveyor belt, it really adds to the atmosphere here. Ramen and chicken katsu donburi is great! They have free miso soup with every meal. Restroom is also clean.
My husband and I are eating out way along the 27 bus route and Sushi Samari was next on the map, we weren't expecting much as we've had amazing sushi train in Japan. This place was delicious! Order off the menu and you won't be disappointed. The train food made me nervous so I didn't try it, but the teriyaki chicken bento was fresh and tasty.
Super friendly and helpful staff. Cool little street side spot to watch people and cars go by. I could almost imagine I was in Tokyo. Plus I love the sushi train!!!
This is a great place to have a delicious and not very expensive lunch. Teriyaki Salmon Donburi is probably the tastiest Salmon I ever had. And it comes with rice and refreshing coleslaw. I was even offered a free miso 🍲.
The only downside is that they don't have a free WiFi for guests.
I ordered the vegetarian teriyaki tofu bento via UberEats and it was so delicious! Really affordable considering the delivery from the city and I had a lovely time tasting all the different components. Highly recommended (and the cute sushi drawing was such a sweet touch)! ✨
Had dinner there tonight was impressed sushi was well made and selection was good. I had tempura vegetables which was nice but the Udon noodle soup OMG such flavor in this really impressed. Also great value for money.
Very very delicious salmon and scallops and eel!!
I've been a regular customer at Sushi Samurai for over two years now, and I can confidently say that it's one of the best places to enjoy authentic Japanese cuisine in Auckland. The food is always fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented, and the service is top-notch. We definitely recommend the chefs A la carte menu. The staff are friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu, and they always make me feel welcome.
Overall, I highly recommend Sushi Samurai to anyone looking for a great dining experience. The food and service are consistently excellent, and I can't wait to come back again soon!
Thanks for the Chef for the amazing experience!
Nicest Tuna tataki ever. Their sushi always go so fast, but order new one from the menu also works just need to wait a little bit. Chicken Katsu also yum.🤤
