    We waited over 45 minutes after our reservation time to get seated. If you go there be prepared to wait as they are always behind and your reservation really doesn’t help much. This is the second time for us to have that experience. We will pass next year and go somewhere else. It’s just so convenient to the Blue Green resort.

    Showed up for 630 reservation and were told it would be an additional 45 min wait. Couldn’t get a clean wine glass even after asking for a replacement.

    Still the best Japanese hibachi around. No matter where in the country we go for hibachi, nothing compares to the food and experience at Benihana in Orlando. A bit surprised at the pricing, as it seemed like a considerable increase from our last visit in 2023. But still worth it!

    The experiance started out great. Meal showmanship was very lacking. Food was prepared as ordered and was excellent, except for the fried rice which was bland. Server brought bill as main course was added to plate, which made us feel pressured to eat and get out. Overall, the worst experiance at any of the many Benihanas we've been to.

    Nice in theory. Made an early reservation for Bar/Lounge area. Arrived and was escorted to a Teppan table. Host seemed annoyed when we asked for Bar/Lounge as reserved. Sat at table for 15 minutes before deciding to move to a hibachi table hoping for faster service. Waited for 10 minutes while being ignored. Then went back to the bar where we were finally connected with a server. Things got rolling from there. Spicy Salmon roll and Gyoza were delish as well as the Sangria and Cucumber Collins. Seafood Diablo was flavorful but overpriced as it was mostly Udon and a few veggies. Shirmp, Scallop and Squid were hard to find in the dish. Filet Hibachi lacked flavor. All in all, if you are doing Teppan, sit at the table to make it worth it. If you aren't so interested in the show, do Happy Hour. Great value and fabulous appetizers. Oh, and don't be put off by the lack of service upfront. Our actual server was great!
