" Yikes! I really wanted to love Benihana, but unfortunately it was a letdown. My steak was overcooked, and I was hoping for much more flavor in the dishes. The server was nice, but the long waiting times overshadowed any positives. I wouldn’t recommend it for a special night out, but it may be fine for casual dining. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had an amazing time celebrating my daughter's birthday here! The chef put on a great show and kept the kids engaged. Everything was delicious, and the portions were quite large. The only downside was that we had to wait a bit longer than expected for our drinks. Overall, a great spot for families looking to celebrate special occasions. " (*Curated Review*)

" The experience at Benihana was mostly enjoyable, but I was underwhelmed by the food consistency. My scallops were delicious, but my partner's chicken was overcooked. The staff was very accommodating, and we liked the showmanship of the chef, but it's frustrating when expectations fall flat for the food. I’d consider returning but with caution regarding what to order. " (*Curated Review*)

" Benihana was a unique dining experience! It was my first time trying teppanyaki, and I must say, I loved watching our chef work his magic. The steak was juicy and well-seasoned, and the ambiance was perfect for a fun night out. However, I felt the drinks were overpriced, and the wait time was a bit long to get seated. Overall, I would return for the food and experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" Okay, so here’s my honest take on Benihana. As someone who loves hibachi cooking, I found their food relatively average. It’s decent, but I wouldn’t go so far as to call it authentic. The service was good, but it felt rushed, probably due to the weekend crowd. I’ve had better hibachi experiences elsewhere, but this was still a fun night out with friends. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a very mixed experience at Benihana. While the food was flavorful — steaks and shrimp were on point — the service staff seemed overwhelmed and made some mistakes with our order. It was a bit frustrating with the wait times, but the actual cooking show from the chef was entertaining. I don't know if I'd rush back. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been to many teppanyaki places, and Benihana does not disappoint! The chef was spirited and engaged with the guests, which added to the fun of the night. On the other hand, I felt the food was good, but slightly overpriced. I can't say it was the best hibachi I’ve ever had, but the entire experience made it worth it. I will be back!
