    The food was great, and our chef, Danny, was fantastic, but unfortunately, the service was disappointing. Despite having a 6:15 reservation, we weren't seated until around 7, and drinks took nearly 30 minutes. Service was inattentive throughout the evening. We were also celebrating a birthday, which was noted on our reservation and mentioned to our server, but it wasn't acknowledged until after we paid. By then, we were ready to leave. We appreciated the manager offering a discount, but overall, the experience fell short of expectations.

    Izzy was fantastic! He made it a 10/10. We had a reservation and were seated quickly. It’s not a fast dinner but was a great experience

    We waited 45 minutes to be seated. During our time waiting in the bar area, I walked over to the front asking when we would be seated, kept on being told we were the next to be seated. My party of three decided to eat at the bar. No one ever checked on us in the bar even though we were there the whole time. Food wasn't warm and tasted like someone microwaved it. Worst experience at Benihana's in over forty years and over eighty visits.

    I’ve been to lots of similar Hibachi restaurants and many Benihana restaurants. This experience was a mess. We didn’t have the first bite of our entree until we had waiting for 90 minutes at our table. The chef was a really super nice guy but the food was not cooked well. The rice was overcooked and crispy and chicken in our fried rice burned and also hard and crispy. The manager did discount our meal and was really nice, but eventually we were there for over 2.5 hours so we all lost our sense of humor. A kid had a birthday at our table and while just about every other table had happy birthday sung over and over, the 12 year old at our table was missed in the shuffle. Yikes.
