Sam's Noodle Town

Not ok.... Had really really high hopes here. I live locally...and want diversity on the food front! Check the lettuce pic out. Burned pot stickers too... Meat for the PHO smelled off...off...not good. Threw it all out and getting a refund.. The lettuce looked like either someone had bitten into it? Or a rabbit ate a bite. Either way? The piece was rotten...scroll in..rotten. it couldn't have been missed it was a big piece! BIG! This is so so UNACCEPTABLE...not cheap either. Almost $60 for two people, with a couple Boba teas... The health rating on the door of "ok" wasn't a good indicator...I should have passed at that point. 😕

This is the fried chicken appetizer and let me tell you....the chicken alone is so juicy and flavorful but that sauce! Omg....omg...so fruity and tangy and mildly spicy. It was perfect and I'm not someone who likes sauce. Then there was the honey walnut prawns appetizer. You get 9 pieces...and the sauce on it.....is sooooooo good...I ate the lettuce and the orange slices JUST because sauce was on it. Even the walnuts tasted roasted and sharp and yummy and I don't even like walnuts. And it all just melts in your mouth. And the beef ribs...marinated grilled beef ribs with white rice.....lord have mercy. The sauce on the ribs...I sipped the sauce off before I ate the ribs which I never do... because I don't like sauce but they are very good with their flavors and sauces and I have a very high standard for good tasting food because I'm Jamaican and we are all about flavor and this food at Sam's Noodle Town hidden away in this small little strip mall plaza is the BEST food I've ever had in my life. I promise you. I promise you. While I ate it I couldn't do anything else while eating and when I was done...I just sat there and stared outside my window blissfully. So needless to say ..they make the food in some paradise and bring it back to earth. It's just perfect. And no I didn't eat everything I ordered because some of it was meant to be left overs. But I almost ate it all at once.... because omg it's so good. So I thought I couldn't survive without Jamaican food but I changed my mind...as long as I can eat from this restaurant, I'll be good.
