Dirty, crowded, tight spaces, bad food
Perhaps it was the gum chewing condensing hostess who looked and sounded like one of the "mean girls" never smiled. Needless to say, our server was not better. I asked him why he had such a crappy attitude, he said "Oh, I never smile, I like to keep things professional ". Good call! I requested a new server, to which the old server is seen giving out high fives with a hugh smile on his face to our new server. You know, the... "I never smile..." idiot was now acting like he just...read full review

Benihana offers an amazing dining experience, especially if guests have some extra money to treat themselves. The chef entertains guests with flipping tricks, keeping everyone engaged. The dinner is fantastic, albeit a little Smokey as expected. The parking validation process could be improved to cover the entire cost. Despite some disappointing experiences, including poor service and missed details, Benihana is still recommended for its fun atmosphere and delicious food. The chef has received praise for his skills, and many guests find the food good as always. Overall, Benihana remains a popular choice for celebrations and special occasions.
The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, with the signature teppanyaki tables setting the stage for an immersive dining adventure. The chef transforms dinner into a dazzling show, with skillful precision, lightning-fast knife work, and a sense of humor that keeps the entire table laughing. The filet mignon and the Waygu meat are cooked to absolute perfection, incredibly tender and full of rich, beefy flavor. The Japanese A5 was melt-in-your-mouth tender and full of flavor. The chicken fried rice was incredible too, definitely worth upgrading for. Paired with Benihana's signature dipping sauces and served alongside perfectly sautéed vegetables and fried rice, it is a symphony of flavors. Dining at Benihana is not just about eating, but about connecting, celebrating, and making memories. The tableside cooking is so fun for the whole family, and they even take and print a photo of you while you dine.
