    This is really the only decent hibachi place around. However, even if you have a reservation, expect to wait. They aren't very organized with planning for reservations and walk ins. My husband and I were moved two different times because of lack of planning, we ended up getting a whole hibachi table to ourselves, which seemed like a waste but it was nice even after waiting a while. The servers seemed overwhelmed, but the food is always good. The chefs are great. However, the biggest issue I have with this place is the heat, smell, and cleanliness. The walls are in desperate need of a paint job and cleaning. The walls are covered in old food splatter, like soy sauce, drinks etc. Is it nasty to look at while eating. They need to go through with a magic eraser and clean all of their walls and baseboards. Don't even get me started on the thick layer of dust that covers the glass hanger at the bar. I almost spit out my drink when I looked up at the amount of dust covering that glass hanger. The place is in need of some updating, maybe fixing the AC to start. They have fans blowing everywhere but every time I go there I can't breathe and it is so hot. They should probably think about cleaning the whole place, floor to ceilings. Very hard to eat and look at the dust and dirt covered walls. Again, decent food.

    Service was ok I guess but even for hibachi standards the food wasn’t flavored at all and just was t worth it. I didn’t enjoy paying 30 dollars for a 4 oz ribeye

    Our chef was good and my kids had a good experience for their first Hibachi. The food was seasoned well but I also asked the chef to make sure it was enough seasoning lol. My only complaint was the air wasn’t working. Didn’t stop people from coming in.

    Thr alcoholic beverages are not. As in very little alcohol (maybe none) in the martini I got. They ran out of filled mignon. No AC in the middle of summer, and they didn't even tell us nor offer anything for the heat.

    I wanted to take my nephew somewhere fun and enjoyable for his high school graduation, so I decided on Japanese hibachi and sushi. I had never been to the Samurai Hibachi Sushi& Bar on Duke Street and read the reviews and decided to try this place. Well, the reviews failed me. We booked a reservation for 4 which our reservation was for 6:15pm on Saturday, June 10th and we were seated at 7pm. We ordered our drinks and food. There were two other people who were seated at our table. My party had hibachi and two sushi rolls and non alcoholic drinks. Our hibachi chef came and cooked, nothing extra. Food was just okay at best. Our waitress forgot about us never came back to see how we were doing and if we would like anything else. At 7:50pm the hostess came to us and informed us that she needed the table. I informed her that we were still eating and talking. She said, sorry, I need this table. I informed her that we had been there less than 1 hour and asked for the manager. I was informed hat the manager was not there. I asked if there was an acting manager, she informed me that she left already. I felt so disrespected totally. I didn’t have a good time, I didn’t have good food, overall, I didn’t have a good experience. My bill was $268 for 4 people and a 18% tip added automatically. I will never go back to this place. Horrible customer service and I felt totally direspected as their guest and over charged for the experience. I could have gone to an express Japanese hibachi and had better food and experience than I had at this place. I hope they get better for future customers.

    The group went to celebrate my masters program graduation. We had a great time and the food was delicious. The chef was amazing; very funny and personable, he made it fun for everyone. The service could've been better though. We were given water when our orders were taken, but the waitress didn't come back for refills ever. The same waitress also placed the soy sauce bottles on the grill, walked away, and then when she came back, she reprimanded my brother and swapped his arm for putting the bottles on the grill, even though she's the one that left them there. Overall, it was a fun time and the food was good, but the service was lackluster.

    If you’re not getting Hibachi like the of the party, your food will come out as everyone is finishing up. You will receive nothing but “sorry”

    The service and environment were good. We experienced a much longer wait time due to a group of 48 showing up at the same time although we had a reservation as well. Aside from that it was a good experience and the staff was apologetic and accommodating.

    We tried this place because it was my son's birthday and he wanted to try a different teppanyaki/hibachi grill place instead of our normal "go to" places (Tokyo One in Lorton, VA and Osaka Japanese Steakhouse & Seafood House in Alexandria, VA). It had good reviews and was about 20% more expensive than the places we usually go to, so we had high hopes. Unfortunately, we were disappointed. The grilled food was good, the sushi was great, and the service was pretty good, but one of the main reasons to go to a nice teppanyaki place is for the show. You expect the chef to interact with the customers, perform some tricks, etc...this is where Samurai Hibachi Sushi & Bar really let us down. The performance aspect was pretty lame; just a poorly executed volcano and flipping food into customer's mouths...that's about it. Save your money and go elsewhere.

    Worst dining expletive had in the DMV area in the 12 years I’ve lived here. DO NOT go to this restaurant unless you want terrible service, terrible food, horrible ugly restaurant with no vibe. I’ve been to this chain in another state and it was great, this one was just so horrible. On top of everything being as bad as possible, the manager was incredibly rude to me and a number of other people waiting for table. I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone ever. Go to McDonalds, it’ll be a better experience.

    We were sat before our reservation time frame. Service was excellent and drinks came very quickly and were great. The chef that made our food was excellent and very entertaining and food was cooked to perfection(Steak). Our table had so much fun we were allowed to stay and keep drinking. The owner came over and thanked us all and we all plan on coming back again for dinner. Great experience!
