   Hate to leave a bad review but very frustrating when you have a reservation set and don’t get seated until 45 minutes later. Poor communication from the front desk/hostess. Other than that, everything else was fine.

   There was a bit of a wait but we were seated by 7:20 for a 7:00 reservation on a wildly busy Saturday evening. The staff were very helpful but definitely overwhelmed by the crowd. The food was delicious and the company at our table was amazing. They even sat us with another family that had kids which was nice since our daughter (7) was with us for her first hibachi experience. Great thinking!

   They need to have all the food available. a lot of items on the menu were not available. Also there needs to be more vegetables as additional options, the only vegetables they give out are zucchini and onions which kind of sucks

   Overpriced and mediocre food. Not worth the time or money.

   It was 6 of us and none of us was satisfied. I personally ordered the noodles expecting udon noodles and was highly disappointed when the chef bust out spaghetti noodles. My sushi roll was good, the onion soup is always amazing. The worst yum yum sauce I ever tasted. Very skimpy on meat. We asked for paper napkins and was told we can all have 1 by our server Mindy. Who was a bit sassy, borderline rude all night. Our chef was the only amazing thing. I love habachi, but I will stick to chi-tung or Hamada. I’m good on Benihana
