Benihana

"I cannot even express how happy I was when visiting today. First, we were running late and they were so kind and accommodating. Next, I told them that I had 3 students and one parent I was bringing were new to the US. With that, our waiter, Sergio, promised us an unforgettable experience. That is exactly what it was. My students were in awe the entire time. Our chef, Cal, went out of his way to do as many tricks as he could. He put smiles on their faces that would fill any heart. Before we had Chef Cal, we had a different chef, Ezequiel, who came to us by mistake but in the 10 minutes we had him, he filled their hearts with joy. My students loved this experience so much that they asked me to write a note to the chef. It was the sweetest thing. The food was wonderful. Every staff member we encountered was genuinely kind. Thank you for providing these littles with an experience of a lifetime. They are still obsessed with the egg trick!"

"So my gf took me there for my birthday and it turned to be the worst dinner experience ever. After waiting for almost an hour to be seated (although we have a confirmed reservation), we had to wait for another 30 minutes till the waitress showed up to take our order. Then 30 minutes later, our drinks and soup came. Then waiting for another hour till we got a chef to start to cook for us. Another thirty minutes to bring the dessert then another 30 minutes to pay our check. And finally guess what!! We saw our chef while we were leaving, peeing in the bushes. No wonder why I got an explosive diarrhoea in the middle of my meal. A total lack of personal hygiene and cleanliness that will prevent me from even thinking to come back or even recommend the place to anyone."

"We have always wanted to go to a Benihana's and there was one within walking distance of where we were staying and let us tell you it was totally awesome. After placing our orders and after they brought some super delicious Miso soup, this guy comes out and starts twirling the utensils and putting on a really great show. Then he gets to cooking for everyone around the table. At one point he sets the table on fire! WOW! We started out with the appetizer Chili Ponzu Yellowtail that was smokin hot but not too spicy hot and most delicious. Then he served us up the Hibachi Salmon that was cooked to perfection. One of the best meals we've ever had. We also had the Benihana Mango Lemonade that was totally awesome. Do yourselves a favor and get over there a.s.a.p. You'll be happy you did."

"They have a good formula here, we got the steak and chicken and it was delicious. They put on a good show. Is it worth $43 per person? For onion soup, salad, fried rice, and meat and veggies? Then we had ice cream."
