    Great food and fun entertainment. The only negative is they seemed short staffed with chef’s for the number of tables. It took almost two hours for our chef to start cooking at our table.

    We dined in the restaurant on January 3. They still were using the “abbreviated” menu which I thought was odd. They had no kid’s chef hats and no crayons were offered to my 3 grandchildren under 6 years old. Very expensive for what we received.

    Great service, exactly what you'd expect from Benihana. Food was iffy. Salad was not good. Usually the ginger dressing said is a high point, but this one was really not good. There food itself was flavorful, not bad. The ice tea ice cream was very wired. Metal after taste... And the upcharge for fried rice and was a bit excessive given that cost of the meal Overall we had fun, and again our server lady was awesome.

    They were behind on reservations but it’s New Year’s Eve so understandable. Service was great!

    It’s always a great experience but yesterday there was a lot of things off. I was told that I can sit at the bar with my 11 yr old which was in accurate. We were kicked out the bar and had to wait. So much for reservations. Cook kept forgetting things and messing up order. There was a huge spill over my shoes. Take out took forever for a small rice. Sapporo was all out. Just not the best of my experience.

    Great service and good food but at the price of a high end steakhouse. Charging $7 to put very little chicken in the fried rice was a little too much as well as a $15 beer

    It turns out that your reservation time is just the time you can check into the queue . We arrived at 7pm for our reservation time and were told we’d be sat shortly. After asking for several updates, we were finally sat at 8:15pm. Waiting over an hour is inexcusable! We also ordered the meals which were supposed to come with white rice and tea but were never served either. Oversight because of how busy the restaurant was. Won’t be running back anytime soon… this place is too expensive to have such appalling service.
