Samantha's Restaurant

Very strange. I walked in and ordered the fajitas with ribs and chicken and a seafood pupusa. Very normal transaction. Brought the food home. Opened the container and it smelled just a little off. Took small bites of the food and it tasted ok. But the beans were extremely salty. I mean like someone dropped half the salt shaker in the small plastic container. Those I had to throw out. Very strange. I have loved Samantha's food for years. I will give them another chance down the road.

Today, I made the realization that I have been coming here for over 20 years. I spent my 21st birthday with my family as well as my college graduation here many moons ago. Last time, I had asked if they had a new chef because my favorite pupusa got even better. Highly recommend!!! Great service, great food! My only complaint- terrible parking.

Service was great but the food lacked flavor. Looked very delicious though.

The service is excellent, its not a large restaurant so you will be greeted shortly after stepping inside. I've visited twice before writing this review and both times the service was excellent, very courteous and friendly. Both times I ordered the Ceviche, but the 2nd time I ordered the Ceviche *mixto* which includes different seafood. Both were incredibly good. I would recommend either for restaurant goers seeking too experience Ceviche for their 1st time.
They accept all forms of payment, including NFC payments.

Such a cool place! The service was incredible. We had a wonderful server who was super nice. The food was wonderful. I was not really in the mood for Mexican and had the Pollo asago. At the end of the meal I was ready to come back the next night!

Amazing ambiance. Good menu with fast variety of cocktails and appetizers.
The mains are of good portion size and none the less tastes great.

Since we had been to this restaurant once before, we have been obsessing for paella. But, to get to this restaurant during the dinner hour, you take your life into your own hands. It is like driving through Tijuana in a 1957 Chevy convertible. We pulled into the parking lot and we were almost run over by a diesel pickup. It was a nightmare. We entered the restaurant and were met with serenity. The peacefulness and calmness of the dining room was a 180 degree difference from the outside craziness. Our server, Carmen, made us feel at home. She was very gracious. We had mussels and nachos for appetizers and they were both delicious. I have never tasted such a flavorful sauce with mussels. I couldn’t get enough . Then came the paella. The presentation was beautiful. And the flavors were phenomenal. And the amount served for two people is more than plentiful. The food and the service is well worth a visit. Thank you chef and crew.
