    Our chef Diego was absolutely fantastic and the food was amazing. Our server. Looked like she was having a bad night…rolled her eyes when we asked for water and wasn’t very attentive to the table. Overall though fun experience and Diego and the food offset the server experience.

    Main service was good and the cook put on a good show. The vent wasn’t working though and people at the table were coughing the whole time. Although the cook did try to get management to do something, management didn’t do anything nor seem to care everyone was coughing.

    We made reservations for 5:00 PM and arrived 20 minutes early. To our surprise we were seated immediately. Although we have been to Benihana many times the server went over the menu for the entire table. Danny our chef was entertaining and a skillful cook. We will request Danny in the future.

    Very disappointed and dissatisfied with my visit. I understand part of what you are paying for is the show, but that was lacking as well. I ordered a beer and when finished I asked for a 2nd and have slid the empty can and dirty cup towards the waitress. She insisted I use the same dirty cup for my new beer like there was some sort of shortage. There was warm beer leftover I didn’t want but was basically forced to drink. The quality of the food was very low, especially for the prices paid. The flavors very bland. The worst part was I ordered my filet mignon medium rare and it was cooked well done. Very disappointing. The chef started out telling us everything she was doing and doing a few tricks. But a few minutes into it, went dead silent and no more show. Just finished cooking. No throwing shrimp or anything else fun like I have seen and experienced in the past. Based on the visit, this will be the last time I ever go to Benihana and suggest others consider better options as well.

    Overall our experience wasn’t terrible but the service was really bad. They forgot our drinks after ordering them, forgot several food items for others at the table and they never even brought something I ordered. The served rarely checked in on us as well. The food was good but for how much you spend here, it should be better.
