Sam Sato's

You have to go here. The teriyaki beef plate reminds me of my mom's cooking. I'm Japanese and I know good teriyaki beef. Food is great. Don't be intimidated by the location or you will be missing great local food.the employees are so nice.

Great lunch place for generous portions and a good price. It’s located in an office park so very popular with locals but it looks like more and more tourists are also frequenting Sam’s. The line was long so we ordered takeaway— the waitress was extremely helpful!

This is a bustling, family started, family owned restaurant. The food is affordable and excellent. They specialize in homemade saimin noodles, but their menu is very extensive. I would highly recommend this historical eatery. You won't be disappointed.

Not my favorite type of food. Place is small, but service was really good. Had dry noodles. They were chewy. Pork was good. Beef skewers were amazing. Turnovers were dry, but flavorful.

Love this place been going to it ever since I was a kid. Love their double dry and cheeseburger Deluxe.

Always good food. Pancake, dry mein, teri beef sandwich.Just be ready to wait a bit.

This is one local spot I seem to always stop at whenever I'm in Maui. They're open early especially when I arrive before 8am. Coffee, breakfast and a side of dry saimin. Simple comfort food.Since the last time I was came here, they've moved into technology. Orders are taken on an iPad. But it's the same small town ohana vibe.Right at the counter, you can pick up fresh manju and other local kine baked goodies to go.Always support local businesses.

A tucked away corner of heaven. Their noodles were amazing and portions generous, well priced and worth the stop. The staff were welcoming and attentive to the needs of different guests. I need to bring my parents here to settle who has the best local noodle dish. The broth they serve with the noodles elevates it to another level. Forreals, detour and stop by for a local lunch you won’t forget.

A Maui institution for over 60+ years. It is renowned for its saimin, manju and friendly local service. Be sure to look at the artwork and wonderful black and white photos.

Local favorite for breakfast and lunch Great dry noodles and hamburger steaks. The desserts include various flavors of manju, great for omiyage. Gets crowded quickly for breakfast and lunch, so get there early or expect about a 30 minute wait for a table. Courteous staff, very friendly. Parking lot usually full, so street parking or overflow available. Added amenity for Pokemon Go players...there is a gym located at Sam Sato's!

So delicious, so local, the dry mein was amazing

Fun place old school place with great noodles!

The food was awesome. The ladies here all were so nice and made us feel like family. Got the combination plate and the spare ribs were amazing. People come here for the dry noodles which were also very good, but for me the spare ribs is why I will be back. The parking lot is tiny. The entrance is full of boxes and very shady looking. The interior is minimal and run down. It is a hole in the wall with great food, great prices and awesome people. Stop by for lunch, you will be happy.

This is a Maui landmark. The food is delicious and the portions large.

Loved it..great food, service was great and prices were too..good food..
