    The food is great. The host are darn awful. Ignored me when I had questions about my pickup order since I have no idea how long they take. And when their supervisor asked if I was attended to, she said yes. I had to talk to them and tell them that the host just straight up ignored me. Personally wouldn’t come back here.

    I stopped going to Benihana years ago and I was right, made a mistake going today again, the food was not bad but not that good either. What bothers me the most is when the chef takes a liking for a side of the table and completely ignores the rest, today it was more obvious than ever, the other side of the table was served almost double portions while I got scraps being served last all the time, if you look at the vegetables on my plate you can see the amount I got, 8 pieces of zucchini and 2 slices of onions while the other people at the table got full plates, the cook never once looked my way or tried to interact with me. It happened to me and my wife years ago in an anniversary dinner and now once again with my family. Ended up asking for my food to be plated to go. Never again Benihana.

    We all had a nice time and meal was good, the only thing that was a little disturbing is the chef going around the table with his cash app information for his tip. I have never experienced anything like that before.

    By far the WORST location ever. The chef cooked like there was a shortage of food, plates were not full how they usually serve & didn’t receive food that we ordered, the chef responded with “i don’t know, i only serve what is on the ticket” and moved on, no care for your customers. Employees working with attitude. Chef did not do tricks which is what you pay to go to Benihana’s for. At the end of the supposed show that we never received, the chef threw her hat on the floor, this was so disrespectful. On top of all this happening, it was a surprise as a birthday gift and they failed to make it a memorable day in every aspect. The only good thing about the experience was the happy birthday song & that was all. The chef was not at all engaging with the people on our table. Bad attitude, little food & NO SHOW. Don’t come to this location if you wanna gamble getting the right experience or not.

    The food was really good and the chef show was great but the wait time was ridiculously long. Spent 3 hours here just to have dinner. 40 mins waiting for a table. Drinks took forever. Ran out of water twice. Service was horrible. Not friendly. The chef was great. Interactive, friendly, entertaining. Food was really good nice flavors and cooked to perfection. Also there was something wrong with the airflow in the restaurant. Everyone was literally sweating it was so hot and very smoky from all the grills. The restaurant is not very clean at all either. Lots of dust and sticky tables. The walls are splattered with food. The floors were really gross. Oh and my plate was supposed to have ice cream included and that was never brought out.

    Came here on a Sunday evening for dinner after the football game. We made reservations and arrived 10 minutes early. We waited about 30 min before I got a notification my reservation was canceled. When I went to the hostess to ask why she said I never checked in. But I had checked in with her. We still had to wait another 15 min. So we were seated almost an hour after the reservation. The waitress who took our drink order was rude and rushed everyone at the table. Chef was great and food tasted great. Wish I had the opportunity to get more than one drink. We were never offered waters or refills or anything of that nature.

    By far the WORST ever. Employees working with attitude! Started with the sushi I ordered,the waiter got it wrong 4 times and rolls eyes slam drink on the table. The Chef got our order wrong after repeating it 2 times didn't care when we advised her its incorrect she continued to cook and placed food on our plate. The chicken was under cooked no flavor when brought to her attention she responded very rudely and aggressive. The amount of food served was a joke did not do tricks which is what you pay to go to Benihana’s for. It was my birthday celebration party of 6. Asked for manager which never made it to our table.Very disappointing The chef was not at all engaging with the people on our table.

    Good food and chef but horrible service. After being waiting for more than one hour the chef finally came and prepared a delicious and very funny dinner. Unfortunately the waiter and the rest of the staff was not nice at all. Finally when asked for the bill, it did not came printed. When you pay through the machine it ask you for the tip when an 18% of service charge is already included. Be aware of that because if not there is a high risk of paying the tip twice. I a travel a lot around the world. If you want to see some other interesting places all over Europe and Americas follow me in Google.

    The chefs not only cook very well and fast, but they entertain the guests during the entire time. Every Chef has different skills, so every visit is a different delicious experience. We had our entire table to our party of 6. It was a late reservation around 9 on a Sunday and the place had a lot of empty tables. Service was really good and the menu options are endless. I took a picture of the QR code so you can check yourself. The location in Miramar is very easy to find and close to I-75. A lot of free parking outside. The building is spaceous and very well decorated. The experience is not cheap, but worth the visit.

  • 1/5 Ernesto Perez De M. 3 years ago on Google
    Very very bad customer service, I called today in the afternoon to make a reservation for my whole family to celebrate my wife's birthday and they told me I don't need it, just walk in. Once we arrived to the restaurant they requested a reservation and we were not able to get a table, the manager did not help at all and was very rude. Never go again and do not recommend to anyone

    The food and service is great. But it was greasier then I expected for the first time going. But then again maybe it depends on what you order.

  • 5/5 El Rey D. 3 years ago on Google
    I went for the first time for my youngest daughter's 10th birthday (and I've been wanting to go since before she was born), it was reservation only during this pandemic (not sure if it's like that normally), but besides that it was one of the best experience in a restaurant in a long time... Food was great, for our appetizer(s) she chose the Salmon roll, I chose the Las Vegas roll (I recommend this, and will return for more), and for our main course (which we shared), we had filet mignon & lobster tail with added scallops & shrimp fried rice... So, with the rice, make sure before the chef starts cooking you tell them how you prefer it so they don't add eggs & all sorts of vegetables for each person in your party! Bon Appétit

  • 4/5 Julia C. 3 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Isabel D. 10 months ago on Google
    Judi from Benihana at Miramar provides stellar service in all aspects. It is a testament to her professionalism and dedication to her role as a manager. It's clear that she goes above and beyond to ensure that we the customers have a memorable dining experience. From her friendly and welcoming demeanor to her attentiveness to our needs, Judi's commitment to customer satisfaction is commendable. She lights up the space wherever she goes! We are grateful to dine at Benihana especially when she is there to greet us, and cheers to the chefs that provide such delicious food. Would highly recommend! -Alex and Isabel

    So….. dinner started at 7:45pm and we left at 9:30pm and between that I was disappointed in the waiters they were slow and seem to not hear to well when an individual ask for the check. I literally had to say it three times! The food was great on point and cooked to perfection need some work on the waitress and clean up crew I saw a table sit there dirty with plates for an hour and 45 minutes no wonder it takes for ever to get inside thankfully we did reservations

    We can’t here for my nephews birthday and it was everything we could ask for. The cook was very funny and talented. He made us feel at home and the food was very very delicious. I ordered the mojito and Rocky’s choice. I would be coming back here for sure!

  • 1/5 New Beginning Life Christian C. 1 year ago on Google
    on 5/19/23 went to Benihana in Miramar, FL for a birthday dinner for a party of 7. Made a complaint with manager, Sidney. told him about Food was salty, scallops were extra small, looked like they were cut in half and we were given a dirty fork with food stuck in it. Final Bill was $521.37. This included an 18% gratuity of $75.08. When I receive my Bill spoke to manager, Sheri-Ann Scott, who was very rude and unprofessional, that I was charged a gratuity on my bill. Benihana's policy, printed in the menu, says for a party of 8 or more guest an 18% gratuity will be added. I only had 7. Police was called because she refused to honor her company's policy. I was forced to pay the bill. I was Embarrassed and humiliated for the treatment received at this establishment.

    We went during the lunch special hours and the food was good as usual but our server was not as animated and he got part my order wrong, so i just switched with my partner. The restaurant was in need of cleaning. Carpet needed a good vacuum. We had a good experience and the wait time was short with our reservation.

  • 4/5 Sade M. 1 year ago on Google

  • 2/5 Santese G. 3 years ago on Google
    I have always been a fan of this franchise but this location is full of lazy employees who gossip at the host stand which lowers the moral and overall experience. The chef who's name I believe was HU was great and my kids truly enjoyed their experience.

  • 2/5 Viviana N. 3 years ago on Google
    Reservation was at 8:45pm. Was seated at 9pm. Overall, the chef was incredible, but it is unacceptable the amount of time it took the first server to deliver our soup and salad. By the time the chef arrived to begin cooking it was 9:45 and of course the restaurant closed at 10pm. We we’re overwhelmingly rushed and once the chef was done cooking they immediately handed us to go bags. Simply, so not Offer an 8:45pm reservation when you will kick your guest out whom paid over a $350+ bill. To have the manager come up to us at 10:35pm to leave because “we were the last guest is unbelievable. We were celebrating someone’s birthday and definitely were not violating curfew nor disturbing the peace of employees. I would not return to this facility.

    Purchased dinner to go and I must say that Benihana is getting better at takeout. The food was tasty and well packed. However, the shrimp appetizer was a little cold.

  • 1/5 Luca de j. 3 years ago on Google
    Horrible customer service they never get a “to go order” right or on time! Gave them a second chance tonight and ordered food to go arrived early because they don’t answer the phone to make sure they don’t make the same error they made the last time to my surprise my food was ready in a half an hour early this time and all the food was over cooked I explain to the manager my previous experience with having to throw $50 of food away because they had ingredients that were requested not to be in because of allergies and he says I’m sorry they fix my current order And continue to send me home with $80 of cold food!!This place truly doesn’t deserve my business or anyone else’s

    (Translated by Google) This site is very unpleasant customer service, too many people working and they are not able to properly serve a customer. Having a reservation, I spent 1 hour waiting to be seated, and after being seated I spent almost 30 minutes waiting for my order to be taken. Apparently they are only interested in the customers who are sitting in front of the chef, the rest are not a priority for them. It's a shame that having a good reputation for the taste of your food is spoiled by such poor customer service. (Original) Este sitio es muy desagradable la atención al cliente, demasiadas personas trabajando y no son capaces de atender correctamente a un cliente. Teniendo reservación estuve 1 hora esperando a ser sentada, y luego de estar sentada estuve casi 30 minutos esperando a que tomaran mi orden. Al parecer solo les interesa los clientes que están sentados en frente del chef, el resto no son prioridad para ellos. Es una lástima que teniendo buena reputación el sabor de su comida lo echen a perder con tan mal servicio al cliente.

  • 1/5 blissfulspirit11 3 years ago on Google
    Absolute horrendous experience!! The Yelp reviews are exactly correct. 3 hostess and no one answers the phone. One was extremely rude and unprofessional! I don’t know how they run a business without answering their phone and accommodating customers who have reservations. Unfortunately, we were never even able to eat and enjoy our reservations. Hours at this location are not updated on Google. Will NEVER come back EVER again!

    It's always a pleasure coming here to eat. I've been going to Benihana's for 3 or 4 years, every January. I go by myself to celebrate my birthday. But this year I went in December to celebrate my daughter's birthday. Anyway, this is my 3rd visit to this location. Great customer service. Great food. Thank you. I will be returning in January for my birthday as usual.

  • 4/5 Leo C. 3 years ago on Google
    Good food, family friendly atmosphere. By reservation only (no walk-ins) due to COVID. Hand sanitizer available near entrance and all staff wear masks. Service is usually decent but has been a little on the decline as of late. Perhaps not enough people to wait on the large groups of families that make reservations.
