Apparently ownership has changed here. Maybe we caught them on an off day , but they seated us and…read morethen told us that they ran out of shrimp and the owner had gone to the store to buy it ... and they had no idea when they'd return. All the appetizers were supposed to be shrimp, so may have been better to let us know before they seated us and not wait for an hour to tell us ? Not surprisingly, we had to leave. It also felt a tad too smoky in there - not great ambience. Although I must say, they did not charge us for the drinks that we'd ordered, so there's that. It's sad to write this sort of review but people should know, and hopefully ownership recognizes this and changes for the better! Try Tokyo Table if you're craving something similar in the meantime.

"A Second Chance?" -- I gave it one. Unfortunately, I won't be giving a third…read more After my first review, I received a call from the manager personally asking--really asking--that I give Benihana another chance. She explained that changes had been made at the restaurant as a result of feedback like mine, and she genuinely encouraged me to come back and see for myself. I explained that I don't live anywhere near the area and that it would likely be quite some time before I chose Benihana again. I was assured that I would be "taken care of" on my next visit and was even given a personal number to contact. Fast-forward about two months. I happened to be in the area today, so I decided to give them that second chance. Unfortunately, my experience was still far below what I would expect from a restaurant at this price point. The food was still underwhelming. And once again, the people at the table were far too polite to say anything, which honestly made me wonder: Do you ever go back and watch the cameras or listen to what is actually happening at the tables? The drinks I decided that since I normally stick to wine or sake, I would try an actual cocktail this time and give that a fair shot. Unfortunately, the cocktail was essentially sugar syrup. I would have asked to switch it, but there was no one around to do so when I needed them. Eventually, Teddy, the manager, came over, but at that point the situation had already become uncomfortable enough that I simply didn't feel like making an issue out of it. "Comments and states like I'm I like shiny things......." Cocktails: negative zero. Wine: excellent Pinot Noir. The food At the moment, they are offering a limited 5-6 course experience, so I cancelled our other reservations and decided to commit to the full experience here. Unfortunately, the rice was still bad. Juan, the chef, was absolutely amazing. Better than the last by 100000% He was personable, attentive, and did a great job with what he was given. However, the overall experience still felt extremely systematic and lacked the consistency and attention to detail I would expect. I also happened to see the server we had during our previous visit working at the table next to us. It was almost like watching a completely different person--she was much more engaged and attentive this time. Unfortunately, there was also an incident where an entire tray of soup was spilled onto a 400-degree griddle, creating a huge amount of steam directly around the children and adults seated at the neighboring table. That was concerning to watch. Was it better? Some things were better. Some people were excellent. But overall, the restaurant still didn't deliver the experience I was hoping for after being personally asked to return. My bill was $175, with $40.40 comped. And honestly, that's the part that keeps coming back to me: I would have spent that $175 somewhere else. It's not just the money. It's the time. Getting dressed, making reservations, sitting through dinner, and spending an entire evening somewhere is an investment too. I genuinely wanted to be able to come back and say, "They listened. They made changes. It's worth going back." Unfortunately, I can't say that. Would I come back? No. Would I recommend it? No. I appreciate the manager reaching out to me after my original review and making the effort to bring me back. I really do. I gave it another chance specifically because of that conversation. But after tonight, I feel like I've given my feedback, given them another opportunity, and given them my business. At this point, I'm moving on. And again needed to start off with no toilet paper before dinner. Pay $200 for dinner and wipe with seat covers? Pass. I don't want stuff for free ever, but if someone harasses me and calls and pleads for a second review, well here it is. I'll pay no problem. The only difference, my children weren't present this time around Do better.

The manager, Mickey Folgheraiter, was absolutely outstanding. He checked on us repeatedly while we waited, kept us updated, and continued to make sure we were taken care of throughout the entire dinner. His attentiveness, professionalism, and genuine concern for guests really stood out, especially on such a busy night. He's the kind of manager that makes you want to come back. Our chef, Alex, also deserves major credit. There were a few issues that were not his fault--some food came out incorrect or not quite enough at first--but he handled everything with grace and professionalism. He stayed upbeat, kept the experience enjoyable, and did an excellent job cooking and entertaining with what he was given. Busy nights happen, but great service makes all the difference. Thanks to Mickey and Alex, what could've been a frustrating evening turned into a very enjoyable one. We'll definitely be back.

Do it! We drive from the other side of town. First of all I LOVE teppanyaki!!! It is a fun show but I also get to specify how I want my food... and who am I kidding I am a princess. Sushi is fairly good here but I skip the apps because there is so much food. Lunches are more affordable but don't give everything dinners give. I love the onion soup. I love the salad with onion dressing. Both are simple but really are good. Also get the hot green tea it comes with meals. Want a cocktail they have those too they aren't included but they are good! Then the grill fun starts --- if you like Chicken Fried Rice do it! Get it.. Chefs here are super fun and have a whole show. Mushrooms, onions, zucchini and Shrimp all cooked on the grill are given to each person who orders a meal. All very good and there is a ginger sauce for veggies and seafood and a mustard sauce for chicken and beef. I always get the Emperors Feast with Filet and Chicken because I like it like that.
