    Classic Benihana in a newer building setting. We are blessed to have gone to many Benihana locations, and the Boca restaurant gives you that cool upscale vibe. We came for an early Mother's Day and luckily had a reservation because it was packed! Our chef Hector was great and our server Matthew was very kind. Food was delicious and it was the perfect Benihana experience. Lots of free parking outside the restaurant.

    Sadly, I didn't think I'll be returning ever again. Server was good and food was great, but we were trapped there for 2.5 hours! We each had a coupon and for some reason the host couldn't figure it out. Kept forgetting to apply it, mixed up our orders, it was a nightmare. We closed the place down and it was so awkward. I'm not sure what happened.

    Amazing! The server Chris was so kind and helpful, she was the best! And the chef Noelle was superb!!! He cooked so well and with so much love! Food was great. Chris and Noelle make a perfect team and made the whole experience worthwhile!!! Can't say enough good things

    Had some coupons for Benihana so ended up going to their Boca Raton location for lunch. Decided to sit at a normal table; been at the show grill table lots of times. The layout of the location was very airy, bright, and lots of open space; very positive and inviting. Carresa was our server and just awesome service. The food was so tasty; we had the chicken and steak off the lunch menu. Really enjoyed the experience; think I prefer the lunchtime (not as pricey and less crowded). Will be coming back for more

    We went to Benihana with a party of four for one of my friends, birthdays... Everybody had the shrimp the steak and the chicken with the rice from the grill... I am not a fan of this kind of Japanese food... So I had sushi, I ordered the chili Ponzo yellowtail... That's not what she brought me... So I had to tell her that it was incorrect.. so everybody was eating while I was waiting for my food... When we went to pay the bill everybody's bill was all wrong so she had to redo the bills.. food was good... Service not so good

    My boyfriend and I came here on a Tuesday night to celebrate my birthday. It was not a long wait for us to be seated and we had a reservation. Only two others sat with us. When we arrived, the place was packed! The teppan chef did a great job and had some good jokes (it's a consistent experience when I come here once a year.) I like the hibachi food and service was excellent. Our server Jayden made me feel very special on my birthday with his professionalism and warm attitude. Benihana is a wonderful spot for celebrations I just wish there was more variety and personality in the teppan chefs. I wish the jokes varied every time I came in. Chefs with a personality may be hard to find but it would be cool if they were able to test out some of their own skills/tricks. They sang me happy birthday in English and in Japanese. I also got a free sherbet with a candle in it. If you sign up for their emails in advance, you can get a coupon for your birthday. It used to be like a buy one entree get one free but prices are so high now it's just a nice chunk off your bill. I look forward to returning here again next year.

    Benihana is definitely more about the experience and ambience, than the food itself. The food is good but the restaurant is more focused on the experience and providing a celebratory atmosphere. We were here for a birthday party and the dinner show included flying shrimps, onion volcanoes, food art and other entertainment. Food was okay but too much sauce was used for my tastebuds. I'll definitely comeback for more fun celebrations and nostalgia.

    The food was top notch! Seasoned perfectly and overall so good/fresh. Service was great. We actually went on the 4th of July and made a reservation ahead of time and got seated right away. Ambiance was great too. I will definitely be going back. Shout out to Chef NELLY!

    A group of us went to Benihana in Boca Raton for lunch. We were so excited to enjoy hibachi for lunch. However, we quickly realized this lunch would not be an enjoyable experience. When we arrived, no one was there to greet anyone. After standing there for almost 10 minutes, someone came to greet us but said we would need to wait a few more minutes before we were seated. Unfortunately, we would not be able to enjoy hibachi cooked in front of us due to not having a chef available. Therefore we were seated by Ingrid at a booth. After we were seated, it took almost another 10 minutes for our waitress to come to our table. It was becoming apparent they were either short staffed or lacked time management which is why we gave our drink and food orders at the same time. As we were waiting for our food, we noticed more people coming in and leaving after not being seated. We spoke to Ingrid who identified herself as one of the managers what was causing the extensive wait. She began to share how short staffed they were and overall concern about upper management not properly scheduling staff. When we finally received our food, it was time to leave to return to work. Due to the experience Ingrid was kind enough to adjust our bill. However, the overall lunch experience at Benihana's was disappointing for a restaurant who has created a legacy surrounding their experience. I doubt we will return to this location again

    Take out after one hour of "ready"

    This is the absolute worst place in the world to order food from. Take out takes over an hour when you are in the restaurant ready to pick it up. When you done in, the food is over cooked and sucks. Way over priced. Never again.

    Pac man show!!!!

The weekend buffet price was fairly reasonable for $20.95. There is a huge amount of sushi flavors, seafood, salad, soup, hibachi, Asian cuisine, fruit, and dessert options. Some of my favorites were the California sushi roll, chicken broccoli, and pastries. I enjoyed everything and it was plentiful. The staff took care of us and refilled our drinks as needed. They removed the plates as necessary and checked on us to make sure we were happy with everything. The waiter informed us there was gratuity added on our bill because of the size of our group. Most restaurants wouldn't inform the customers about that and a lot of people would add an additional tip by mistake without thinking about it. All of us had a great time for lunch!

    We had never been to this restaurant before, but a Groupon showed up and it looked interesting so…read morewe decided to give it a try. The restaurant is in a very, very busy area and the first thing we noticed walking in is how loud it was inside we asked to be seated in the rear where it was a little bit more quiet. After being seated, our server came quickly with a request for beverages and some menus. We didn't wait long at all. The service was good and friendly. We decided to try some things that we had not had before to see just what it would be like here at this particular restaurant and the results were a bit mixed but overall good. I had the Mongolian beef and I was happy with the dish. It was plentiful. The quality of the meat seemed good and the flavors were OK not amazing. My sweetheart had a fried rice and shrimp dish and while the tastes were OK, we were surprised at how few shrimp were in the dish. The food came hot and it came quickly and the presentation was very nice as you could see from the photos when we go back? the answer is probably. My suggestion is try this restaurant midweek when it's not so loud and see if you like it. It's open to the street and they have ample outdoor dining, which is nice but it was too muggy for us to sit outside that particular day. We didn't try their cocktails, but the people around us were enjoying them and they looked excellent. I hope you give it a try and comment or let me know what you think!

The sushi was fresh, flavorful, and definitely the highlight of the night. The restaurant itself was also really beautiful and had a nice upscale vibe. Unfortunately, the cleanliness and service at the beginning didn't match the atmosphere. When we first sat down, one of our glasses had a lot of scratches and the other one was visibly dirty. When I asked for them to be changed, the waitress initially insisted it was just scratches, even though one was clearly dirty. She eventually replaced them, but the new glass was also heavily scratched, and what bothered me most was that she took the dirty glass and placed it on another table instead of taking it to be cleaned. The attitude at first felt a little dismissive and rude, although she did become much more polite and helpful as the night went on. Another downside was the bathroom cleanliness. It smelled like a public restroom, which really didn't fit the fancy atmosphere the restaurant was trying to create. Overall, the food was genuinely excellent, but for a place that looks this nice, the cleanliness and attention to detail should be much better.
