Best Restaurants for Groups in Chandler

Benihana is one of our favorite places to dine, and it never disappoints! We recently visited to celebrate my son’s birthday and had a wonderful experience. The hostess was friendly and was able to accommodate us by adding another person to our party, even though the restaurant was very busy. The service from our waiter was attentive and friendly, and the chef was not only skilled but also accommodating to our requests. The food, as always, was absolutely delicious, and the sushi was exceptional. The highlight was when the staff sang “Happy Birthday” to my son in both English and Japanese—and the waiter took a group photo for us, it made the celebration extra special. We’ve been coming here for years and always look forward to our next visit. Highly recommend Benihana for great food, excellent service, and a memorable dining experience! This version is polished and includes your note about the hostess seamlessly.

Wonderful waiter and all staff. Terrific menu and also happy hour offers. We will be back!

My wife, and our son and his girlfriend, had dinner at Shimogamo Chandler to celebrate our son’s first job. For the first time, we ate at a table, instead of at the sushi counter. Our server, Micah, was terrific. She clearly knew the restaurant, the menu, the food and the drinks. We started with an excellent sake, Ippongi Daiichi Gitai, that was presented by the bar manager, Matt. We ordered a huge assortment of mostly nigiri sushi; Madai (Sea Bream), Mejina (Opaleye Nigiri), Kamasu (Barracuda Nigiri), Kinmedai (Goldeneye Snapper), Aji (Jack Mackerel), Umi Masu (Ocean Trout), Hotate (Sea Scallop), Anago (Sea Eel), Ama Ebi (Sweet Shrimp), Baja Uni (Sea Urchin Sashimi), Santa Barbara Uni (Sea Urchin Gunkan). Micah had the chefs course our fish selections perfectly. After the sushi, we had the Hatcho Miso Duck, Yuzu Mushroom and Fried Shishito Peppers. For dessert, my son and I tried the Harvest in Uji and Matcha Hai cocktails. Everything we had to eat and drink was delicious. If I had known that they had Kakigori (Japanese Shave Ice) for dessert, I would have saved room for it. That’s one more reason to return for another meal, I guess.

Everything was great. Lucas our waiter did a great job as well. Great time and experience.

Honestly, it’s one of the best restaurants I attend at all times.. no matter which location, Rather is Chandler or arrowhead.. you guys never fail waitresses have amazing outstanding professional customer service that brings positive energy with their best advertisements. If I could vote 100 stars at a five I would but for now it’s five out of five.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
