A True Teppanyaki Experience – Have a craving for table side cooking? Samurai brings the heat with out the circus sideshow.

Whether Rich or Rob is cooking your food, every bite will be one to remember. My personal favorite: Filet and Shrimp.

Ambience, sushi bar – A little pricey, but a great date spot due to it's terrific ambience. A very long and excellent sushi bar, a private room that can be reserved for small parties, and even some of those grill tables where they show off their knife skills. Next door to the North Coast Repertory Theatre, so you can make an early dinner / theatre date evening.
