The foods are so so, and waiter Spanish (big guy) is suck, i dont think he has not been trained, not professional at all. I asked him to take the 2 kids menus away when he started to collect my menu, he say no no no and refused to take them. Why can't take them ? He is such idiot. I was very surprised that have such people work at this restaurant read more

Worst front desk staff; rude and enforces double standards. We were told the entire party had to be here to be seated. This is understandable. Our reservation was for 12:45, everyone was here by 12:50 since it was difficult to find parking. We still had to wait until 1:00 to be seated because the table wasn't ready. The just be racist since a Hispanic man came in after and his entire party wasn't here. They were seated without an issue while the other person in his party came 15 minutes after. Extremely unprofessional. Highly recommend you try the other restaurants in the mall with superior service. The food court provides better service than the hostesses at the front. read more

I'm pretty sure it would've been a good experience. We waited more than 50 minutes and the chef still didn't come out. We decided to leave. I was starving. :/ read more

We had a reservation for 10 at 6pm on 11/16 and were seated within 15-20 mins, totally understandable given how busy it was. After we finished our soup and salad, we ended up waiting 45 mins with no chef at our table. It was our son's 2nd birthday, and he was getting restless from the long wait, so I asked to speak with the manager to check on the status. When the manager came over, the chef had just arrived, so I calmly explained that we had been waiting 45 mins after finishing our soup & salad. Instead of acknowledging the issue or apologizing, she immediately went on the defensive. She told me, with an attitude, that "45 mins is normal" and that it was "busy as I can see", as if that explained everything. She didn't listen, didn't show understanding, and didn't offer any reassurance. It felt like she was more interested in proving me wrong than addressing my concern. What bothered me was the lack of basic customer service. A simple, "I'm sorry for the wait, we're short staffed and doing our best tonight" would have completely changed the situation. Instead, her tone came off dismissive and almost made it seem like I was being unreasonable for asking. For a manager, it felt unprofessional and unnecessary. To make it worse, another family near us waited so long for their chef that they ended up walking out, so clearly the delays were bigger than she was willing to admit. Our chef, once he arrived, was great, but the overall experience was overshadowed by the manager's defensive attitude and lack of empathy. We've been here many times and never had issues like this. The food and chef were good, but the customer service, from the manager specifically, was disappointing and definitely needs improvement. read more

Family went for our annual holiday dinner and it did not disappoint. Our chef was Miguel and our waitress was a new waitress who was only four days on the job and they were both amazing Miguel's personality really added to the meal and we have little ones with us who enjoyed the show as well. Food was delicious. Service was amazing even in the rain and battling in line of traffic to get in last Friday night we had zero complaints. Thanks Benihana! read more

Excellent service. Entertaining dinner. Spacious eating area. Memorable meal. We have party of 7 so can take over one table and do not need to share table with another party. I think up to 8 ppl can sit together comfortably. Be there for the entertainment not the food. The teppanyaki chefs there would crack jokes, do knife works and other tricks while preparing meals in front of you. Expect long wait with reservation. Note that entire party needs to be there before they can seat you. This restaurant also provides complimentary california rolls when waits are long and lobby packed while you wait for table. As for the food, it is part of the show. Don't forget to ask for a cup of hot green tea at the end of the meal - it is part of the 5 course meal. More varieties on entrees if you opt for a six course meal (adding ice cream or sherbet). This restaurant is in the arcadia mall close to AMC theater. read more

Benihana - After dinner picture, some are tired & some are Happy Thank you Ray for a pleasant birthday dinner - Teppanyaki Near Me - Arcadia, California

Love this spot. Great location. Waits are variable. Very long at times, especially on the weekends. Recommend reservations. The Rocky's choice with 2 chicken fried rices is my go to. Great soup and salad. If you haven't been here before, this location specifically has been my favorite of the chain. I've been to several across the US, such as in Hollywood, City of industry, in Minnesota, and more. Staff is great! Never had any problems here. I have had problems at different locations. Clean restrooms. Very cozy and dim lit. Great show and great food! read more

Stopped by on Saturday, 03/29/25 during dinner time. Waited for about 10-15 minutes until we were seated. Ordered the following: - 1 dragon bloom margarita = $18 - 1 crispy calamari = $15.50 - 2 hibachi chicken fried rice = $14 - 1 Sapporo beer (22 oz) = $16 - 1 Splash 'N Meadow = $47.50 SUBTOTAL = $111 TAX = $11.38 TOTAL = $122.38 TIP = $25 (cash, from bf) We had to wait for a few minutes for the chef to arrive due to the peak hours. The Splash 'N Meadow is good for 2 people; this comes with hibachi steak and colossal shrimp; this is a 6-course meal which comes with onion soup, salad, veggies, mushrooms, and ice creams towards the end (we got green tea and chocolate). Overall a great experience! The chef was very humorous and we had a blast. We also took a photo and a copy was printed out for us. :) read more

The most uninspired, overrated experience, we came in Saturday April 11th 2026 for a birthday, spent over $700 for mediocre food and service. We've dined at the Encino location for years. This Benihana location was disappointing. Will not return or recommend. read more

Benihana - Chicken and rice - Teppanyaki Near Me - Arcadia, California

Had a pleasure having Randy as our chef for the night, we we're celebrating a special occasion and he went out of his way to make sure we were more than satisfied. All the meats and food were cooked to perfection! Highly recommend this location read more

We've been here many times, and unfortunately, the experience is consistently the same--long waits every visit, whether we have a reservation or not. There's usually at least an hour wait in the lobby, followed by another 30 minutes before the chef even arrives at the table. The host often comes across as rude and visibly annoyed, which doesn't set a great tone. On a positive note, the servers and chefs themselves have always been friendly and pleasant. The food is mediocre at best. Sometimes it's good, but other times it's disappointing--it really depends on which chef you get. Prices have increased, but the quality doesn't justify the cost. The only reason we continue to come back is because my kids enjoy the show. Otherwise, it's not worth it. read more

Skip the nigiri here. Decided to stop by Benihana for a light bite while waiting to meet up at the mall. Ordered got the snapper nigiri (2 pieces) at the bar for $8.5. The pricing is on the higher end but many izakaya or sushi restaurants do charge this range so I accepted it as market price and gave it a try. Plus that's what I felt like eating atm. The fish was slightly smelly but acceptable and tasted okay. The soy sauce was served in a plastic cup and wasabi not provided until asked, no sushi ginger needless to say but this isn't a sushi restaurant so I'll put My pet peeves aside. However, the rice was stale. How do you mess up rice? It might have been left out for a long time? Anyways, the higher price tag made it all the more disappointing and didn't order anything further. (I still finished the item cuz personal policy to not waste food. Didn't grow up privileged.) Benihara is a Teppanyaki Japanese restaurant, so sushi is not it's focus. But it's a well known brand and markets as an culinary experience, so it would best serve (no pun intended) to maintain quality and freshneshs for all items on the menu. If it's difficult to maintain quality for certain items, it may better to limit the item to certain hours (ie. Lunch only or dinner only) or take it out of the menu. read more

food: 7/10 (quality of the food was mid & a lil too salty in my opinion. I ordered the A5 Japan Tokyo Broil Wagyu, which was already marbled with flavor. Could've asked for lightly seasoned. service: 7/10 (I highly recommend booking reservations because the line/wait is kinda long.

What We Ordered: -Benihana Trio $54.50 -Hibachi Chicken Rice $14.00 -DineLA 3 @ $55.00 -Kids Chicken and Steak $27.00 -Benihana Delight 2 @ $44.50 Total $474.84 with Tax and Gratuity My sister and her family were visiting from Denmark, and we wanted to take them to a restaurant they don't have there. We chose Benihana because the experience is fun, especially for kids watching the chefs perform. Our chef, Ray, was a true gentleman with a great vibe and playful banter, making the dinner very memorable for our family. I ordered the Benihana Trio, and it was excellent, providing plenty of food for a big guy like me. I also tried the DineLA specials, which offered a good deal with choices for appetizers, entrees, and ice cream for dessert. While the potstickers were good, I prefer the Trio's meat selection at a similar price. We all enjoyed ice cream to celebrate a birthday, and they made little sundaes for the kids, a nice touch. They automatically added 18% gratuity, as we were a party of eight. We had a reservation through OpenTable and were seated promptly. Overall, it was a fantastic experience, and we'll definitely be back! read more

I've been to a few locations over the years and I think this one is my favorite! We went in on a Friday for my cousin's birthday and had the best time. It was also my baby's first time at a hibachi so I was worried how she was going to handle it, but she ended beyond ecstatic! Service: I was concerned taking in my baby & a huge stroller but the staff were so accommodating on settling us in. If you frequent Benihanas, you know it's always busy & situating takes time & there's a wait getting your food. But our server Ariana was so sweet & apologetic for any delay. We didn't notice any said delays because the energy was on point! Shout out to Ariana our gal! & thank you to manager Monica for coming by and making our experience more personable! Food: we had the best chef ever! Izzy (on the beat) was hilarious & so entertaining. This location also has the best food in my opinion. Everything was perfectly cooked & in a prompt manner. He had the most vibrant energy & really elevated our dining experience! Thank you! Parking: it's at the Santa Anita mall next tot he food court entrance so there's ample parking. But it gets busy so there's a valet option as well. But valet closes at 9pm but they usually re-park your car in a closer spot to the entrance so I think it's worth it! Restrooms: clean & baby friendly Definitely will be back! read more

Benihana - You can take these home! I have my second lucky cat (: - Teppanyaki Near Me - Arcadia, California

Benihana is always a fun place to bring the family. I mean, what kid doesn't enjoy teppanyaki? Watching the chefs cook right in front of you always keeps everyone entertained and makes the meal feel like an experience rather than just dinner. The staff usually does a great job making guests feel welcome. The servers are attentive and the teppanyaki chefs are friendly and engaging, which really adds to the overall experience. They put in the effort to make the meal enjoyable for both adults and kids. If there's one area that could improve a bit, it would probably be the front host stand. Things can feel a little less organized at times and the greeting could be a bit more welcoming. Overall though, it's still a great spot for family gatherings or celebrations. If you're looking for a lively dinner where the kids will actually stay entertained, Benihana in Arcadia is always a solid choice. read more

An overall great hibachi experience. You are definitely paying more for the experience and the show, the food itself is good but not worth the price without the accompanying show. The hibachi chefs are very skillful and funny, they know how to put on a show. The food is healthy and tasty, and decent portions. Service is good and the interior is big and clean. read more

I must start off with saying I love teppanyaki restaurants. Been to many and continue to try new ones. Benihana has a reputation for being the standard of these teppanyaki places but this night fell short in some ways. First off out chef Leos, was absolutely ahhh-maazing. The show he put on was hilarious and entertaining. He got everyone laughing and got the kids at the table involved, which they loved. The food came out delicious and cooked well. Where our night was lacking was mostly with the server and host. Drinks came out not as ordered. There was confusion on a bar drink that led to it being cancelled. Non alcohol drinks on the menu were also "not available at this location". Refills were pretty much nonexistent during dinner. Salads came out after the hot foods were already being finished up from the chef. Then plates, soup bowls were piled up on the table making it difficult to eat the main course. Just lacked attention to the normal services of the table and guests. We ordered regular fried rice but was charged the chicken fried rice upgrade. Then when dessert came out there was no candle, no singing like the other tables had for birthdays. I reminded her of the birthday guest and she grabbed a nearby host and the 2 of them sang a lackluster happy birthday. After that NO tea was served as listed on the menu final course of our meal. Finally they take a group photo and ask how many prints we would like. We ask for 3, one for each couple in our party, and the host came back with just one. I waited thinking that the printer was still printing the others. After seeing her tending to other tables and about 5 minutes later I tracked her down at the front desk and asked if the other 2 were coming. She looked surprised and asked for my table number again. "Ohhh ok I'll get them". Sheesh! Also not to get too dramatic but every other table were given bags for they leftovers while we just got the boxes. This would have been one star for service easily but thankfully for the awesome chef Leo he salvaged the night into a fairly nice night. Which is also a dilemma when tipping. I basically tipped generously for the chef and all he did but I wish the server knew just how disappointing the service was. read more

I had a very disappointing experience at Benihana Santa Anita. From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere felt unprofessional. While waiting to be seated, staff members were openly lecturing and correcting each other in front of guests, which made the environment uncomfortable and awkward. Once we were seated, we had to wait about 30 minutes for the chef to even come out, with no real communication or updates. On top of that, servers were shouting across the room to each other, which took away from what is supposed to be a fun and engaging dining experience. Our server also made us feel uneasy--there was constant, intense eye contact but no friendliness or smile, which came across as uncomfortable rather than welcoming. For transparency, everything I've described was recorded on video using my Meta glasses. I plan to share this footage on platforms like YouTube and TikTok so others can see exactly what we experienced. I believe it's important for businesses to be held accountable, and this will allow others to form their own opinion based on the actual interactions and environment we encountered. Overall, the lack of professionalism, poor communication, and uncomfortable interactions really took away from the experience. I expected much better service, especially from a place like Benihana. read more

It's Father's Day 2025 and celebrating with my son-in-law, who makes the second father in our family. I was so happy he picked this location, as it was fub with good food and great company! The show is nice, especially for my two young grandsons, who just watched in amazement at the skills our chef possessed. Although the chef himself has no kids, he's a seasoned veteran, and knows what kids like. Because our party was large (14 people) we had two tables of diners and two chefs back to back. I realize this is not your typical Japanese restaurant, but have to admit the food was delicious and the service fast. We were there for almost three hours which seemed to just pass so fast... read more

Visitation Rights: Probably been to this location a handful of times. The last time was last month for my birthday. Rewards Program: Join their rewards program and get a $30 Birthday Certificate to use. The stipulations are: 1) Valid for in-restaurant dining at DINNER only, MONDAY‑THURSDAY. 2) Only one certificate can be applied to guest check per visit. (Valid in the Continental U.S. and Alaska only) 2) Not valid on New Year's Eve, Valentine's Day, Thanksgiving or Christmas. 3) Requires purchase of $30 in food and nonalcoholic beverage. The certificate will then be applied to an additional $30 purchase in food and nonalcoholic beverage. 4) Certificate cannot be applied to alcohol, tax, gratuity, merchandise, delivery, promotional or discounted items (includes Happy Hour). 5) Certificates must be printed and can only be redeemed for dinner Monday - Thursday. NOTE: I was able to go and show them my email confirmation with the code Wait Time: Can be a bit long depending if they can get enough people to join a table. I would also recommend to make a reservation. Restrooms: There are restrooms to use Credit Cards: They're accepted. Location/Parking: Located at the Shops At Santa Anita near Cheesecake Factory. Believe it or not, but this place use to be Bar Louie over 10 years ago! Parking can be found in the shared lot. Ambiance/Decor: Neat ambiance with modern furnishings. Entertainment: Are you NOT entertained? Of course you are. Who doesn't love fork and spatula basic juggling skills mixed in with some humor and visual effects. The teppanyaki chefs mainly perform in the main dining area. Service: Usually service was pretty good in the years past. Last month's experience was a bit off. 1) There was a long wait (after placing our orders in) before the Teppanyaki chef came out with all his ingredients to show off his fork and knife juggling skills while cooking us our meal. 2) Our Teppanyaki chef messed up couple of times and wasn't really engaging compared to the other tables that we happen to eavesdrop in their conversations with their patrons. With all the smoke, his cool light saber visual effect was pretty neat though. 3) We never received our picture that they took in the beginning of our dinner service. 4) The staffer that took our order didn't ask for the promo code when they knew we were celebrating my birthday. So we had to ask them to take off the $30 which took a while to get back to us. Food Of Choice: I would either rotate between the 5 course meal of either teppanyaki chicken or the steak with less salt and oil. The meal would consist of: 1) Miso soup (it was kinda salty) 2) Salad with sesame dressing (liked the salad) 3) Rice (white or brown) or upgrade to the fried rice. Upgraded to the fried rice and requested for less salt and oil. 4) Ice Cream: Decided on the matcha green tea. Benihana For Thought: Even though the experience was a bit off, I would still come back. read more

First off, I hate yelping businesses, but after our experience I had to. Went for dinner , super busy so we decided to sit at the bar and have dinner. Everything was great until the food came out. First thing, two of use ordered dishes that were supposed to be filet mignon. They were not, very tough and chewy, most likely ribeye or flank steak. I would be very careful and inspect your meat if you order filet away from the usual hibachi grill. I feel they tried to substitute it out and hoped we wouldn't know the difference. I called them out on it and they did finally bring the filet. Second thing, everything had too much pepper on it , visibly. Our chicken , the fried rice and even the meat they tried to pass off as filet. This was the worst Benihana food experience. Do not recommend eating here, at least at the bar. The hibachi grill could be different, I haven't eaten there nor would I go back to try it based on recent visit. Good luck! read more

Last night was the first time I've been back to eat here in at least 5 years. To be honest when my family and I are craving hibachi we usually go to Shogun which isn't too far away...but the wait was long at Shogun and we didn't want to have our toddler out too late so we decided to have her try Benihana for the first time. We were sat almost immediately upon arrival which was nice but I don't think the chef was ready for our table to be sat . It took about 45 minutes to an hour for the chef to come to our table which was longer than usual in my other experiences. The chef was unprepared, shouting across the room to other chefs and servers for damp towel , white rice , etc. When passing out the sauces to the table for some reason he wasn't going to give any to the children at the table. Besides our toddler the other party had 2 children with them and we all had to ask for them to get their own sauces. Just because they are kids doesn't mean they don't want the same experience as the adults. Anyways, the hibachi shrimp appetizer was literally the last thing to go on our plate after everything else was cooked and prepared and the shrimp was clearly overcooked based off the appearance of it being tightly curled in a circle not to mention it was chewy. The fried rice was a little chewy as well. Overall it just wasn't that great of an experience. It was long drawn out and the food had so many hiccups. The chef gave one of the other kid's food at the table to my daughter who didn't order that so the other kid had to wait longer to get their dinner when everyone else was eating. It was just a mess in my opinion. We paid our bill and stayed to speak to the manager , she apologized and gave us a gift certificate which was nice of her but I don't think I would ever return to this location. read more

The food at Benihana is usually good. Today we ordered through mobile to get two hibachi burritos. We arrived a few minutes before the pick-up time, but waited another 50 minutes after to get our food. We know it gets busy, but we could've waited for a table and received our appetizers by then. (There were people seated while we waited.) They appeared short staffed, said sorry, but there was no estimated time. If we knew it was 45-50 minutes, we could have walked around and returned later. (It would've been nice if we were offered something small, or a glass of water for waiting.) The food was good and maybe would try ordering it again in the future. read more

Thank you Benihana for hosting my wife and I, along with our families for Christmas Eve dinner. Food was great, our attendant was amazing, and our chef was talented and hilarious.

Worst dinning experience ever. To start dinner reservations was at 5:45pm and we checked in with the hostess at 5:35pm. Did not get seated until 6:30pm. Waiter: once the waiter took our order he was off doing who knows what. Asked if I wanted ketchup for the kids but didn't come back until the chief started cooking the adults food. He did refilled my drink once and never came back to check on us. Towards the end of dinner our meal came with desert. He never showed up to take our desert order and another family left. We had to ask a manager and she got another waitress to take our order. After the waitress took our order we waited longer and the manager that ad asked for the waitress to take our order had to ask her to go check because we just sat there waiting. Chief: the chief was friends and entertaining but he gave the wrong food to the wrong person twice. My order of shrimp was given to someone else and I had to wait to have my shrimp cook at the end of everyone else's meals. To add to that the shrimp was not completely cooked. Booster seat: waiter asked if I needed a booster seat for my kids and he comes back with one and told me the entire restaurant only has 3 and he only has one. That one that he had a broker buckle so I could not secure the booster seat to the chair. For the price we paid for dinner I expected a better experience. Also it worth noting that the hostess was telling people that had reservations that they overbooked. So what's the whole point of making reservations? Highly disappointed and Benihana needs to do better. read more

We decided to give this restaurant another chance. Made a reservation for 6pm on a Wednesday, arrived on time. Restaurant was half empty, but was told to wait. We decided to go to the bar to get a drink while we waited we stood at the bar for 15 minutes and no one came to take our drink order. Gave up. Went back to check on our reservation they said they didn't know when we would be seated as they were waiting for the one other table in the restaurant to cash out (even though they had several empty) and we decided to leave.

It's been a few years since I've been to a teppanyaki restaurant. We came here as a group to celebrate our friend's birthday. The Chef was great fun. I wish we were a little more awake, but he had a good attitude. Love good Millennial humor hah! Food was good. Maybe a little salty at times but over all great! We all had fish dishes. Some got the salmon and others got the tuna steak. The salmon was cooked so well. I personally found the tuna to be lacking in flavor, but I'm also biased. Tuna isn't really to my taste, but the others enjoyed it! We also got A LOT of food! Lots of fried rise and sides. I also got a chance to have a little dish of each of their sauces they had on hand! Getting a chance at tasting different flavor combos is a treat! It was a little loud in general. When you are in a huge room and there are 7 other chefs wining and dining their groups, it's a lot. There is also just a ton of smoke and steam even with all the vents on. Just don't come here expecting a quiet experience, this is not the place. This is great for special occasions! I don't see myself going here too often, it's a shoo in for those looking to impress their family to a fun evening! read more
