The place was packed (Saturday night), but we were seated promptly and experienced excellent service. Darren did a great job as our Teppanyaki chef. This Benihana is located within a large mall with many interesting nearby places, such as Handel's homemade ice cream.

We made a reservation for 7pm and there was a hockey game at the arena next door so it was super crowded and super loud inside. We were seated right away and our server was very good. After the game started at 7:30 the crowd thinned out and we were able to have a normal volume conversation instead of yelling at each other from 2 feet away. The food was prepared and served quickly and everything was delicious. The chocolate cake dessert recommended by our server was sooo good.

All the appetizers, rolls and nigiri were delicious! Our server was attentive and the tea plus heater added to ambience on a cold night while we enjoyed the views on the outside patio. The supermoon shining above was the cherry on top for us. Had missed it here.
