dined at benihana for christmas for the first time in maybe 20 years. reservations after 5pm only listed bar lounge as the seating option but we were still seated at a grill! our reservation was for 5pm and we sat closer to 545pm. not sure why slots are every 15 minutes when this is an involved and lengthy dining experience. smooth sailing once we got to our table. tasty food, fun chef, attentive server. beware, the food smells really cling to you. would dine here again!
