Benihana offers great food and service, with a charismatic chef and polite waitstaff. Vegetarian options are available, including veggies, zucchini, mushrooms, onions, and salads. The restaurant is wheelchair accessible, with plenty of room to move around. The chef, Precious, is highly praised for her friendly, fun, and professional manner, making the dining experience memorable. Customers appreciate her interactive style and the delicious food she prepares. The staff, including servers like Denise, are attentive and provide seamless service, ensuring refills are quick and no detail is missed. The food is consistently praised, especially the sides, and the atmosphere creates great vibes, making it a good place for celebrations like birthdays. However, some reviews mention that the atmosphere can be cold, noisy, and smoky, which might make conversation difficult, and the venting system leaves a lingering scent on clothing. Overall, it is a popular spot for special occasions, though it may not be ideal for quiet dinners.
