" Had a wonderful experience celebrating my daughter's birthday at Benihana! The chef was incredibly entertaining and the food was cooked to perfection. The miso soup started the meal off nicely, and the steak was tender and flavorful. My kids loved the show and were laughing at all the chef's tricks. Definitely a place I would recommend for family gatherings. " (*Curated Review*)

" I typically love Benihana, but my last visit did not hit the mark. While the food quality was still good, we faced poor service from our waiter who seemed overwhelmed with the number of guests. I hope this was a one-off experience because the food is usually fantastic. Decent portions, but I felt a bit neglected through the meal. I will give it another shot in the future. " (*Curated Review*)

" The food was worth the wait! We went on a busy Saturday night and had to wait a little longer for the chef to arrive, but once the cooking began, we were entertained nonstop! The filet mignon was incredibly tender, and the sushi rolls were very fresh. The only downside was that it was noisy, but that’s part of the experience. I left satisfied and happy. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently tried Benihana after hearing rave reviews, and I was not disappointed. The food was authentically prepared and flavorsome. I particularly enjoyed the steak cooked in front of us—it was a show and a meal in one. However, there was a bit of a wait to be seated, even with a reservation, which was frustrating. Beyond that, it was a great experience and I'll be back. " (*Curated Review*)

" Benihana never disappoints! We came here for my friend's birthday and the chef was fantastic! Entertaining, hilarious, and cooked the food to perfect doneness. The warm plates were a nice touch too. We ordered extra rice and the portions were generous. It does get a bit smoky, but the ambiance is really lively and fun! Perfect for group celebrations. " (*Curated Review*)

" I'll be honest; I had higher expectations coming in. While the food was good, I found it to be on the pricier side for what you get. The service was alright, but we had to prompt our waiter for drinks multiple times. It was fun watching the chef prepare our meals, but I wish there was more emphasis on customer service. Overall, a decent experience but could improve. " (*Curated Review*)

" Saturdays at Benihana are an adventure! We celebrated a family birthday and were thoroughly entertained the entire time. The portions were plentiful, and I appreciated my server always checking in. The only downside was the venue felt a bit cramped during peak hours. But the food was fantastic, with fresh ingredients and vibrant flavors. A wonderful place to spend quality time with loved ones!
