   We go to Benihana a couple times a year and always enjoy it. The “show” is entertaining and the food is tasty.

   We had a reservation booked for several weeks and still had to wait 40 minutes to get seated. Pretty disappointed in this.

   The food was very flavorless. We ordered from the chef and from the kitchen. Sushi was delicious.

   Always a great time. It had been a few years since we have been there. Took all my kids there for a birthday celebration. Our server was great! She sang solo to my girls. Her voice was AMAZING! Only down fall is that there was a service charge that was enormous and I didn’t have an option to tip after paying with my CC. I would have tipped far more than the 20% service charge they auto filled.

   Horrible meal. Went here on my grandmas 84th birthday tonight and had a newer chef and the meal was not up to par. Overcooked almost everything, things were cooked in the wrong order. Mentioned it to the manager and she was not helpful

   The servers kept trying to get us to box up our food while we were still eating. They definitely try to rush you through this. Also, the “six course” meal supposedly came with ice cream dessert and we were all supposed to get green tea. None of us were offered the tea. It’s definitely a chain so just know that before you go.

    Service slow. The people we sat with were weird. Show was average at best. Food was great.
