   Our Chef Sean/Shawn and waiter Nick were both fabulous. 10/10 recommend asking for both of them. You can tell they both like and care about their job and customers.

   Our chef Rob was the best! Not only did he have good quality dad jokes, but he cooked everything to perfection and at the same time put on a great show! My party and I got the opportunity to order from their limited 6-course WAGYU experience, highly recommend! It was a great experience!

   Made reservations for 5:00 and sat there for 40 min. We felt like we were headed like cattle. The chef was disgruntled about his fellow employees and expressed it to everyone at the table. Felt like they wasted our time and money. Then got rushed out to fill the table for the next customers. We will not be retuning.

   Benihana has taken a turn. Our 7:15 reservation did not get sat at a table until closer to 8pm. Our chef did not arrive then until around 9pm. I don’t think we ate until 9:30, with main protein served closer to 10. This is pretty unacceptable for a 7:15 reservation. Also i felt that appetizer plates and empty drink bottles could have been cleared much more quickly as they were crowding the small dining area for far too long. Drinks were served very slowly. Courses were served out of order. Orders were not properly recorded or delivered. Cleanliness as a whole seemed poor. The staff were stressed and struggling, but it seems they are not to be blamed. They did their best to make up for all of the issues. Our tablemates almost left before the chef arrived saying they’d prefer to celebrate a family birthday at Burger King than to wait any longer. Staff let us know that Benihana was purchased last year by a new entity- who thought it would be a good idea to keep reservations open to max capacity at any given time. All of the above issues make sense… what a huge failure on the owners part. The experience was truly ridiculous. Benihana WAS a cherished family tradition, but i honestly don’t know if i will ever go back. What a joke.
