The food is good. 2 stars due to long waits. We arrived on time for our 8:15pm reservation and we still endured a 25 minute wait to be seated. We were seated at a table that still had crumbs. Waiter took our drink orders promptly, but we received our drinks 45 mins later. Mind you, I’m here celebrating a birthday. We received soup after sitting at the table for an hour… and chef didn’t start cooking until 10pm… so if you are on a time limit or just don’t want to experience long waits- then think twice. Our server was very positive .. but the timing of everything was unbearable. Everything still tasted lovely. Instead of asking what flavor of ice cream we wanted, waiter asked if we wanted ice cream… isn’t part of the 6 courses that we paid for… then yes we want it .

This is not something spectacular place but it is good for a Japanese steak house. Would prefer 3 stars because of prices. Yiu have to pay extra for fried rice which I have never seen at such a place. Lots of birthdays being celebrated here. Giving 4 stars for the $30 off for your birthday. Food fresh, good cooks

Benihana really does reduce amount of meat, however, the food are good as usual. Fresh ingredients, I ordered Ocean treasure, they come with small lobster, prawn, fried rice and scallop. I did enjoy my time with family, chef was also funny 😄 Apart from the amount of meat, everything was good.
