    Our server Rynie and Chef Jaxon were 5/5. Food was great and we enjoyed the show. However, when we received the bill I was very surprised to see a service charge of $24.80 added to our total on our check for 2 people. Rynie explained it's a charge in which the chef and servers get a portion. She let me know that it's posted up front but to that I'd argue it's very easy to miss when you're waiting in a lobby with 15 other ppl. At that point I had already given the chef a cash tip & set aside a tip for her too so it was very disappointing to see that surprise. Additionally, the service charge nearly washed out the birthday reward and now I'm reconsidering my annual birthday date with my father to Benihana next week. Seems like we can go elsewhere. Somewhere there is no surprise charges and we can tip in cash as we and most servers prefer.

    I haven't been to a Benihana in years. I was expecting an experience. A show of sorts that culminated in really good food. What I got was a chef who fumbled every trick. Who prepared the food exactly as he was trained. The problem is that the food, and preparation just isn't that good. When the bill came it was nearly double what I was expecting. They included a service fee of nearly $60. When I asked if that was the tip I was told no. The tip was not included. But I cannot tip using my card. Any tip would have to be in cash. So on top of disappointing me with the food and service, they managed to embarrass me by making it impossible to tip my server.

    It’s was ok. Food was cooked a bit slow, the show wasn’t really exciting, non of my kids were engaged. I think the guy was new, I understand everyone has to start somewhere, just wish it wasn’t with us. For the amount of money we spent, we are pretty disappointed. Server was great.
