    What else is there to say about the classic Japanese restaurant. Not much is changed food still good. You get extremely large portions. I will see with salad and the sushi appetizer. After that I ordered the soba noodles course. All provided with the meal was delicious. No complaints. Definitely a place that you go with your family and have a good time.

    George was a great chef and the food was delicious and it was awesome to sit with people who don’t look like you but aren’t afraid to sit at the table with you and talk to one another !!! That’s how community should be: have everyone at the table!!

    Used to really like this place! I ordered teriyaki beef and jumbo shrimp! My soup and salad arrived at the same time as my entree! Included in this meal was supposed to be shrimp appetizer as well! My plate had three tiny shrimp on the plate! When I asked about it they said your shrimp are there! I was like $40 for three small shrimp? I was like get the menu, they looked at it and knew they just messed up! About 15 minutes later my jumbo shrimp arrived! Hot mess! By the way we sat at the bar area! Completely dissatisfied!! Like I said, I really liked this place!🤬

    Not sure what we were thinking. We went on a whim. its clearly a special occasion kind of place. For the price you are definitely not getting the return. It's gimmicky. I get it. But, honestly they're not really good at it. Maybe a one time deal. If you're trying to impress that special someone. This isn't it. And for the love of God. Dont order shots for the table. They charged us martini prices. $15 each. Take it from here automatic response generator.

    We came here for a birthday party and We had Desiree and Tony ! We have been here repeatedly to this location and this is the best experience we’ve ever had here with customer experience! Our display by Tony had so much passion and personality! He went above and beyond for our family! This business has a gem with this fella! The other chefs could definitely learn some tricks and hospitality from him! Keep up the great work !

    Great as always, fun place to celebrate birthdays or events, kids will always have a blast. The food is consistent and the drinks are tasty. The fried rice can’t be beat. Be sure to you are ready to pay because it can get pricey and wait times can get excessive even with a reservation.

    This place is too expensive really too expensive for what they offer, the quality of the fishes are super awful and the meat as well. Service is soooo slow! We paid 500 usd and not worth it. Never ever coming back.

    What a fun experience! It's certainly a restaurant tailored to special occasions, as proven by the prices, and rightfully so. The show is wonderful! I could never perform any of the tricks our chefs managed with ease. Oh, and the charisma! It was absolutely infectious. The food's alright, nothing spectacular. But who cares? It's not inedible, and you're not there for the food.

    One of our favorite restaurants for fresh grilled food. Their fried rice is the best!! If you like spicy food, Diablo sauce is highly recommended!!

    Always love when we get the chance to go to Benihana, however our visit tonight was the best yet. Our chef George was absolutely amazing and by far and away the best we've had. The service as always was impeccable and every staff member greeted us with a smile. I can't wait to go back.

    This Benihana @ 3295 S. Tamarac Dr. has a Wonderful Comfortable Ambiance. Tables are well spaced & kept Very Clean. Each Station seats 8 ( we were a party of 6 ) so they added additional people to fill up available seats. This Location was very accommodating. Staff were very Professional. Table Host took our Orders of Various Meal Choices & Options plus Drinks. He quickly brought out our Drinks & Cocktails, then served 2 Dipping Sauces in small bowls to each of us. Then Delicious Hot Onion with Sliced Mushroom Soups with Fresh Tasty Side Salads. Our Chef then came out and inqured what we were Celebrating. He quickly Reviewed our Various Meal Requests (plus he Reviewed Orders Often -- I, am a Very Picky Eater so I was very Impressed with his full Attention to Details). Greatly Enjoyed his Excellent Entertainment during various meal Preparations! He served Generous Steak Dinner Portions to each of us (**Most took half their meal home with them.) Optional: Cocktails, Beer, Wine, Sake, Refreshments. Optional: Various Ice Cream flavors were offered for Dessert @ the end of the Meal. We all had a Excellant Experience. ( So good, I forgot to take lots of photos ) Hats Off to your Entire Staff & Ambiance!

    Friendly staff, Delicious food. Shortage of staff, Made a reservation and was in 20 min later. The pictures with menus are old prices, 30 dollars and up on the main course.Rice/noodles are separate from the protein options. Please explain the menu better to new people like me. Went in to celebrate 3 birthday's the staff was nice to sing the happy birthday song and bring ice cream with candles on it. We ordered fried rice with chicken and hibachi chicken/spicy hibachi chicken. And shrimp rolls. Very tasteful and mouth watering.

    This place was great! First time here and it was amazing. Aspen our server was great and super nice. I didn’t like the first drink I ordered so she replaced it with another one! Welton, our cook was pretty awesome too. His tricks were so funny and he made the whole table laugh. I had the best experience ever. I got the teriyaki steak with chicken fried rice! 10/10!

  • 5/5 Tyler G. 1 year ago on Google
    Our server was great and attentive to our kiddo, the chef was great, although far quieter than some of the other chefs which still made for a great experience, we just couldn't hear what he was saying with all the other chefs and things going on around us. The food was great as were the cocktails, we didn't try the sushi but the meals on the habachi were obviously good.

    An absolute pleasure of an experience. The entire staff was incredibly pleasant and helpful but the standouts were the waitress, Angel, and our chef, Spence. It was a very busy night at the restaurant but Angel went above and beyond to treat every customer at our table like we were priority. Her memory was perfect and she was very attentive, always on top of checking in or clearing our plates. The entire time she was smiling, kind, and friendly. Spence the chef was also a standout. Funny, thorough, and an excellent chef. I would absolutely recommend this location to friends and I want the staff to be recognized and our appreciation shown. Great night, great food, Angel and Spence were especially amazing.

    Food was pretty bland, so it wouldn’t be my first choice to come back. However, I am giving 5 stars, and would give even more if I could, for the incredible customer service we received! We went on a busy night and our waitress was training, because it was her first night. I would have never guessed she was new. She was sweet, attentive, and quick! The person training her was just as amazing and the hibachi chef was talented and hilarious.

    Always fun and entertaining to dine here. We had Kayla and Beto taking care of us and it was great! Even had a snack to take home!

  • 5/5 Jon W. 5 months ago on Google
    Quentin was one of the coolest chefs, by far one of the funniest, and more importantly, most talented behind the grill that we’ve ever come across at any Benihana’s!! He not only satisfied our appetite, but our kids were truly amazed by his skill, professionalism and expertise and more importantly his awesome personality and entertainment!!! Steven was also amazing. He kept our kids happy while we were waiting for the main course. He learned all of our names and immediately made our experience way more personal than expected!! Everybody was so nice and courteous. We will definitely be coming back a lot.!!!

    Was able to squeeze in a late reservation and had a very nice dinner and enjoyed a very good drink! My server Angelica was so nice and polite, we usually go to the location in Broomfield but I could see us coming back to this one more often.
