"Talk about a meal and a show!! If you haven 't been here you have to try it at least once. This particular Samurai has been here for years. The food is delicious!! They make the rice with garlic butter and then they serve you these two side sauces...I always only get double portions of the shrimp sauce. I think it 's a shrimp-based sauce. I 'll have to ask next time I 'm there. From the moment you walk in to see the friendly face behind the counter, to the table server, runner, and chef it 's an experience you 'll never forget. You can take a date, family, friends, or even go solo. The table is set up in such a way that even if you go solo you won 't be dining alone. I usually order the lunch combo with chicken and shrimp. The meal comes with a side of soup or salad, mushrooms (yum), veggies, chicken or veggie fried rice or you can order good old white rice. The salad has this ginger dressing that is to die for. The soup is delicious as well except that when it 's for lunch you have to pick one or the other (soup or salad). Whichever one you choose trust me you won 't be disappointed. For dinner, you do get both the soup and salad so you get the best of both worlds. Plus it doesn 't matter if it 's lunch or dinner the portions are very hearty. It doesn 't seem like it at first but once you have all of the food on your plate you realize it 's plenty of it. The only downfall is the heat/vapor, and you 'll walk out smelling like you just prepared your meal but you 'll leave happy. As my grandma used to say, Full belly, happy heart."

"I went to American Social on a Monday with my college roommates. We choose to go on a Monday because of the burger specials though we did not receive the special. The waitress came up to us fairly quickly though she was not the friendliest we were not bothered until she came around just about every minute as she was rushing us to decide what we wanted to order. We remained friendly towards her our whole visit as we did not want to cause any issues. Once we put our order in we made sure to let her know that we wanted the burger special and instead she charged us full price for our meals which was not that much more but we went FOR the special. We did order drinks as well. At the end of our visit, we could not find her anywhere to get the check. Thankfully we did get her attention and finished up but nearly got charged for parking since she was not around on top of being charged full price for our meals. The atmosphere was very nice as we sat outside we did get a mix of the two different radio's that they had playing but nothing terrible. The food was very good and came out quickly. When booking the reservation I did say that we had a birthday at the table but this was not recognized. I do not go out to eat often and when I do I make sure to pick a restaurant with great reviews as I want to have a good experience when I do decide to go out. I would still recommend American Social to friends as I heard great things before my first visit this past Monday."

"The place has an Old West vibe. Lots of different kinds of wood everywhere you look. Tables and booths are arranged in a open plan. And while there were two of us, we were seated at a table for four there didn’t seem to be any tables for two in view. Not for someone seeking a sophisticated dining experience. Service was good. No complaints there. Wine and cocktail menu was varied and fairly priced. French Onion Soup is a MUST HAVE. Real beef flavor, delicious onion, plenty of melted Provolone cheese, and a hearty slice of pumpernickel bread. Just sublime. The Brussels Sprouts were oven roasted and tender given their size. I enjoyed that they weren’t ‘messed with’. The baked potato was fully cooked and fork tender. And it was HUGE! The sides are the real stars here. All the sides are sold a la carte and each order feeds two. We each ordered the 14 ounce KC Strip. We requested one medium and the other medium rare; but they both came out medium. The presentation was excellent! They had a lovely char and they were a generous center cut. However, they were somewhat tough at one end…there was a bit of a gritty texture. I suspect what happened was that the steaks were defrosted (from frozen) too quickly. Given the excellent quality of the sides; we had high hopes for the entrees. So yeah, we were somewhat disappointed. As to value, I’ve experienced better."
