This is a very large venue with plenty of seating, attentive waiting staff and a very nice Japanese vibe to it.
The food was very tasty, with the only gripe from me being that the spicy tuna maki were a little too spicy for me. However, that's personal preference.
Ordered 3 sides and 3 mains, waitress repeated our order correctly. 3 sides and 1 main turned up in good time. Our waitress didn't come back until 15 minutes later and we asked where our other mains were. The main that had arrived had been eaten and finished already... read full comment

We took our daughter for a midweek birthday celebration, and the food and attentiveness of the Samsi team was excellent. Absolutely love eating at Samsi!
