   I have been here many times. Last night our food was cooked all wrong. Let’s start with that we ordered one fried rice no veggies. Well the cook started making it with veggies and I had to remind him. He then quickly fixed his error but served the rice without egg. Then all our steaks were cooked under temperature. We ordered medium and some parts were medium rare. The rice was very greasy and so were the veggies. Not to mention that we could not even speak with the waitress from how loud the place was. To invest so much money on this meal for the family and be disappointed is unacceptable. Benihana chain should do better and make the experience what it used to be.

   After a one-day-early birthday celebration with family on Sunday, my husband and I wanted a simple but pleasant meal on my actual Monday birthday. We were greeted and seated promptly. We enjoyed cocktails while Oscar cooked our flavorful meal. Our server was outstanding and checked on us frequently. A manager stopped by to inquire about our experience. Although we enjoyed the food, it was the great service we received that made our experience tonight at Benihana memorable.
