    The service was “Excellent”!! This was my family and I’s first time going, and the show the Chef put on was ‘Spectacular’ ‼️The food was prepared in front of us, with such confidence in his gift, and thoughtfulness as well. We had the garlic butter ribs as an appetizer, that were delicious, as well the shrimp fried rice with hibachi shrimp and vegetables. The sauces that accommodated our meals were delicious too! My only thing is I do recommend reservations, because if not, you end up sitting with strangers. It wasn’t a bad experience, but I think it would be more of a personal touch, if your family had their own table.

    We were lucky enough to be invited to celebrate our neighbors birthday here. A short wait after checking in. Unless you are a large group you will be paired with others. Makes for a way to socialize with others though. Our server seemed new and was still learning the menu. She did great though and was very attentive.tempura shrimp and chicken showed up quickly and was enjoyed by all. Placed our orders and soon William appeared and was very masterful with his tools. Soup was a little salty, salad was good. Things kept showing up as we watched him transform the white rice to chicken fried rice, and a onion volcano for our viewing pleasure. I am not a onion fan and I ate evey bit of mine. Everyone seemed to enjoy their choices. My seafood Diablo was very good and the spicy sauce made it perfect. And the portion was enough that I had some leftovers. We had a great time and if you haven't been you should try it.

    The building itself was very dirty, the bathrooms had no soap or toilet paper and the floors were wet and had tissue paper on it. The food was okay and the cook was amazing. (The only reason this is not 1 star review!) The waitress was definitely new because it seemed like she had no clue what she was doing. We were sat at a room with only two hibachi tables and our cook showed up the same time theirs did, even thought we sat down a little over an hour before them. And the valet guy was aggressively begging for money which was just odd. I’ve never been required to give a tip especially after paying hundred for a dinner that was pretty disappointing. Overall disappointing experience.

    We went on 6/3 during lunch to celebrate my husband’s birthday. This is his 2nd time ever going and he really likes this place. The cook was amazing. The waiter was good. The star of the experience was the spicy chili shrimp roll. AMAZING!!! My husband never knows what to order so I ordered this for him and he was in love with it. We will be back.

    This location is a hidden treasure, however the closer you look, you can see the flaws. Hopefully one day this restaurant can get a make over to match the delicious food and entertaining service. Benihana is definitely an experience everyone should try atleast once in your life. Our 6 course dinner was cooked perfectly in front of us on their hibachi grill and our chef was so entertaining, Shout out to Geno!! I enjoyed the Trio plate of Steak, Chicken & Shrimp, seasoned perfectly with garlic butter and lemon. The fried rice is on another level! Nobody cooks rice like the chefs at Benihana. The cocktails were the perfect addition to the meal and I loved the souvenir cup. Such a great place for a group celebration - birthday, anniversary, graduation or even a work lunch. When you’re there, it’s such a great show and meal all in one. Give it a try!

    I wish I could give a zero but I can’t so here’s the deal. I ordered DoorDash for lunch and I was really hungry so when I got the food I immediately started eating and close to the end of my fried rice I look and I was like wait that doesn’t look right. The carrot had like extra stuff around it the I turned it over and lost my lunch vomiting 🤮 all over my desk. I called and then drove my shrimp fried roach 🪳 right back and the Manager David attempts to tell me that it’s not a roach but a carrot and then he squeezed it which was equally gross and offered me to dine there again like really!! I’m never eating here again!!! Be careful check your food!

    When I tell you they cheated me on my meat. Only way you would believe me, is if you see the picture. I order take out all the time from here and this not the first but this first time the gave me a forth piece of meat. I love their food but they will cheat you when you order take out so be sure to check it. ( oh that’s the chicken that came out of both containers)

  • 5/5 shubham jain (Shubham J. 1 year ago on Google
    The experience is very nice . The shef comes to your table and cook for you. If you are pure veg than it is not recommended because they cook everything on the same gas pan. The food taste like all normal restaurants but the main fun part eating here is experience and hot food served directly from the pan . The shef will cook as you want your food to be. Must try for new experience..!

    Sushi, teriyaki chicken and fried rice! The sushi was pretty good. Then we were brought a soup and salad which were pretty tasty. I really appreciated the seasoning on the chicken the most. I enjoyed the drinks that we tried. The Benihana punch was tasty and I ordered it in the koi cup. My favorite drink was the green tea shot. After you finish your drinks, they take the cup, clean it and package it for you! The server was attentive for a busy evening.

    This location is wonderful! You have to park across the street unless you pay for valet, but it’s a short convenient walk across the street. Our food was cooked to perfection and we loved seeing our food cooked with added tricks. Drinks were strong and we loved the food selection on the menu.

    I have been to this location several time and the food is always great. Our Chef this evening was beyond amazing! Yusuf was not only a talented chef but his spin on the hibachi style was super entertaining- the best show I’ve ever experienced. Thanks for making Uncle Michael’s birthday super special!!!

    Its been a long time since we ate at Benihana and we went here with our friends and really enjoyed our dinner. The food amd chef preparing the food at hibachi grill made it even more fun! Overall, we had a good experience.

    ❤️❤️❤️ I don’t even know where to start. Our family goes to Benihana for our grandmother’s birthday every year for the last ten year, everything was fine but this year was the best of all thanks to the chef named Youssef (or maybe Joseph). Can’t even describe how awesome he is. He was so skillful with his knifes, and did a bunch of tricks and shows that I’ve never seen from the previous years. He sang, he went extra miles to cheer everyone up. I don’t know how much this guy get paid, but he definitely needs a raise and deserves a bunch of tips. Thanks to him, I feel like I’ll have an awesome year as I had him as my chef on the first day of a new year. If you ever get to have him as your chef, you would agree with me too!

    Maybe it’s just me but I remember Benihana being a really nice place to go. Anyone else? We went not long ago and the menus were dirty like they hadn’t been cleaned since before the pandemic, the furniture was falling apart and very uncomfortable, and the silverware was disgusting with bits of dried food on it. Their prices are still trending upwards like it’s a high class place though. I was pretty disappointed overall.

    The staff was so friendly and helped me enjoy my solo birthday lunch! Vanessa was my waitress and Kingsley was my hibachi cook and he was so awesome! Great personality and skilled! Vanessa was so nice and we sung happy birthday together since it was just me lol. They BOTH really made my birthday lunch beautiful and sweet. Vanessa even offered for a Benihana Photo! This place is so good and awesome all around, from the staff, environment and food! Keep up the great work Benihana!!

    Food is okay . One thing we are disappointed with is their slow service. We could not order few appetizers as they have some issue with fryers. They celebrate birthdays well and all the members of your group will get complimentary ice cream.

    We came for holiday lunch with the family. Made a reservation and were seated within 5 minutes. Our waitress was very friendly and our chef Lin was very entertaining!

  • 5/5 Scott B. 8 months ago on Google
    What a great place to eat and enjoy a fun family meal! Been here many times but never for lunch. Sunday lunch didn’t disappoint as always. Wait time wasn’t long at all only being about 5-10 minutes and staff are very friendly and polite. Hibachi grills are close together and space is really tight for 2 chefs to perform at the same time but these people are professionals all the way around and they still put on a great show being right beside each other for 2 different tables. Our waiter was great but Arsene was the star of our show and he was fantastic! His humor, mad chef skills and more just made our experience awesome! Always fun for the adults and kids as well to participate and I love being part of the fun too! Meal was cooked perfectly and the variety of options are great here! I will definitely recommend Benihana to everyone and will continue to come here even though it’s quite a drive from our home. It’s well worth the drive! Thanks everyone for always a wonderful dining experience!

    The food was great, the chef was skillful and entertaining. But you have to call a day prior so you won't have to wait for a table. Other than that its was a great experience.

  • 5/5 Micheal Bradford (. 2 years ago on Google
    🍰 What a GREAT experience! We haven’t been in years and they didn’t let us down. Great food, energy and people. Plus, they allowed us to bring our birthday cake!

  • 4/5 Tashekia B. 1 year ago on Google
    Food was good, drinks were AWESOME! Our server wasn't the best. Not sure if he was having a bad day, busy, or new but he sucked! We showed him some grace but kind of made the experience less than stellar.
