" Every time I visit Benihana, I am never disappointed! The chefs are incredibly skilled and put on a great show. Last time, we had chef Archie who wowed us with his tricks and prepared the best shrimp fried rice I've ever tasted. The staff is always friendly, and the food is always hot and fresh. I will be back next month for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high expectations for Benihana, but I felt it didn't live up to the hype. The dish I ordered was somewhat bland, and while the service was functional, we didn’t feel any warmth from the staff. Maybe we just caught them on an off night. " (*Curated Review*)

" Enjoyed an evening at Benihana for a friend's birthday. The atmosphere was really buzzing with energy, and the food was great! My only disappointment was that our chef didn’t engage with us as much as I hoped, but the food was cooked well and tasted fresh. I might visit again. " (*Curated Review*)

" Our group had a fantastic time at Benihana! The chefs are not just cooks; they are entertainers! I enjoyed everything on my plate, especially the fried rice. I cannot recommend this place enough for anyone looking for a fun dining experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" We decided to try Benihana for the first time after hearing so much about it, and it did not disappoint. The ambiance was perfect for a night out. My only criticism was that the meat could have been marinated better, but overall the experience was lovely. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a unique dining experience.

" Benihana has a great atmosphere that feels lively and inviting! I took my family for dinner, and everyone had a pleasing experience. The chefs' presentation was entertaining while serving up excellent dishes. It’s a little pricey, but worth it for the memorable dining experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" Boy, I went to Benihana with my friends, thinking it would be a fun night, but we were disappointed. The cook seemed nervous and didn’t make the experience engaging like I expected. The food was decent but not enough to make up for the lack of fun. Wouldn’t rush back anytime soon. " (*Curated Review*)
