   The restaurant needs to be cleaned. Splatter marks on the walls. The waitress kept bring us dirty plates. The hood vent was not worked efficiently and the grease and smoke were being directed into our faces. Chef was using too much salt and pepper. The quality of food isn’t the same as years past.

   We spent $129 for 2 entrees and one beer and one soda. Quality was BELOW any other Benihana we had been to in the past and service was SUBPAR on top of that. We waited 35 minutes for food that looked like it had already been half-eaten and it was cold. ONLY zucchini for the vegetable? Really? Doesn't get much more low brow than that. The poor servers were trying to keep up but the restaurant noise level was 15/10 and the reservations - if you can call them that - were an hour behind. We won't be back - EVER.

   I will never book a reservation for a holiday ever again. We had a reservation for 6:30 and was not sat until 7:30PM. There was no call, email, or text message advising that they were running over an hour late on reservations. This caused the whole experience to feel rushed and not as engaging as past times I have visited the restaurant.

   The food and service were great! However, we had a 5:15 reservation, and when we got there, they said they were running 1 1/2 hours behind. They said that the walkins needed to eat too! It ended up being 45 minutes to wait, and it was very frustrating.

   Our reservation for Christmas dinner was at 5pm but when we got there they said they were running at least an hour behind and would text us when ready. We never got a text and were never seated. Worst experience ever and ended up leaving

   Very busy and overbooked for Christmas Day. We were seated 1 hr after our reservation time. People were told upon checking in that they were looking at an hour + wait. Food was delicious. Diego was outstanding. He made the wait worth it

    Dined here tonight with my Grama from out of town. Alex was our chef and he was literally amazing. Kudos to you Alex, what a great experience we had because of you. Had to wait an hour after our reservation time but everything was handled professionally. Thanks for a great Christmas meal experience, especially you Alex. Great job!
