Benihanas has really gone downhill. Food wasn’t very good. Use to be consistently good and a fun venue. Our chef was friendly but didn’t do much in terms of entertainment. Won’t go back.

So happy that this Benihana is back to great quality food & service! The only little issue was the AC was blowing very strong in the waiting area creating an uncomfortable waiting area. Is was so great to to see the "picture" taking was back in the Benihana frame. We'll be back now sooner than later.

The food and ambience is always great here. Perfect for celebrations but getting in and out can be cumbersome as in seated and then any additions to the main order once in progress, finishing up and the check as wait staff are bouncing through many tables. all is all good.
