Flavor is good but portions are clearly insufficient for the price and the chicken nearly absent from the chicken with rice dish. Takeout orders such as grilled beef and chicken with vermicelli and shrimp with crispy noodles are reported, along with a won ton soup containing a fruit fly, leaving some disappointed by value. Long-time patrons of the other location are sometimes willing to drive there for better quality, while others at this location are not convinced to return.View restaurant profile

Sushi Sama

(120)

Pierrefonds-Roxboro

Sushi Japanese Grill Seafood/Fish Contemporary/Modern Fusion

Review Summary

Overall, Sushi Sama is praised for excellent food and consistently fresh ingredients, though in person service is described as very slow. Ordering through a third party can be unreliable, with attempts to place orders failing or going unanswered and resulting in cancellations. Midday hours and the small location raise questions about whether it is open and about ingredient freshness. The venue is noted as tiny and not well located, with concerns about safety when choosing to order there. A separate note mentions takeout as the only viable option due to two small tables, while still acknowledging delicious food and friendly service accompanying meals.View restaurant profile
