Reviews for Sampan Express in Victoria, BC
Trying to place an order at the buffet line. Server couldn't seem to hear me so I raised my voice owner approached with scowly... face and a racist tone. Clearly appears racist towards black and brown people and is extremely rude! I did not order and willnever go this racist place again Read more

First time ordering from this restaurant I wish I could give better rating As I was really excited to try this place for the... first time. The food was delicious but unfortunately when we got delivery I?m not sure if it was the manager or who thatdelivered to us was extremely rude. We gave I feel a generous tip for having to wait over an hour, We did our payment and heGave me my receipt looked at the bill and didn?t say thank you or anything my son said thank you I said thank you and bye and hedid not say a word except mumble in his language In a low voice. Some better service with a thank you have a good night or atleast acknowledge that we said bye would?ve been more professional. I don?t think I?ll be ordering from this restaurant for along time until some manners are Established Read more
The food here is great. My favorite is soy sauce chicken leg, wonton and rice noodles, tofu and mushrooms, garlic green beans,... and curry beef flank. They also have the best shrimp and egg on rice I have ever had, which is my go-to for comfort food. Read more
I?ve been a loyal fan of Sampan ever since they were a full service dine-in restaurant in the Saanich Plaza. They made the... decision to close down the larger restaurant and changed their format to focus on delivery and take away and they?ve done agreat job of it. I?ve ordered delivery from their place many many times over the years and have always been impressed with thequality and freshness of whatever I order. Their prices are not the cheapest but I don?t mind paying a bit more when the food isalways on point. I only have one pic from the meal I ordered last night but I will endeavor to remember to post more next timeI order. Last night?s feast consisted of their Pork Chow Mein, Breaded Almond Chicken (always so tasty and crispy!), Salt andPepper (chili pepper) Chicken and their Szechuan Fish. One of the only restaurants that understands that fried food in a takeout container becomes soggy fast so they always poke vent holes in the containers to allow the steam to escape. Never have I hadsoggy fried food from Sampan. There is also the hot food bar in-store which offers a great selection of food options fortake-away at a very good price. You can get a 2 or 3 item meal with your choice of fried rice or chow mein (or both as I usuallyget) and it?s more than enough food for the hungriest person. Read more
Your staff couldn't hear what I was saying through the glass, I had to repeat myself 3 times so I raised my voice so that they... could. You then became rude, obnoxious and my reply to you was appropriate based on your behavior. Veiled excuses for racismare pointless. And your other reviews also point to a clear tendency towards rude service and other racially based complaints! Read more
