    Family of 5- celebrated a 17yr old bday. Good time had by all. Our chefs energy and engagement level was about 65% - better chef than entertainer. Waitress service level was about 60% - she was a bit stressed but did get our tables order correctly and returned every 20 mins for check ins. It felt more robotic than individualized experience. Good drinks, and quality food. Price: $$$$ average: $50 a plate. Parking available in a garage next to restaurant - Benihana does validated! Don't forget to bring in parking pass! Entry to restaurant is tucked away... Look for red symbol on black sign. We will return for more celebrations.

    Scallops were over cooked by a lot and filet didn’t taste very good either, so not good value for the price this time. Way too much oil in the food too and it’s seed oil :/ Service was great and chef was great with all the tricks :)
    Benihana - Salt Lake City, UTResponded on May 25, 2025
    Thanks for visiting us, Nikki. We're sorry to hear that our scallops and filet didn't meet your expectations. We take pride in our food quality and we regret that we fell short this time. We're glad to hear that you enjoyed our service and chef's tricks. Your feedback is valuable to us and we'll certainly consider it in our ongoing efforts to improve. We hope you'll give us another chance to impress you with our food and service. Best, Benihana - Salt Lake City, UT Management Team.

    The food is good as always. Enjoy eating in the lounge area as it is a little quieter than the main dining room. We can also indulge in the happy hour menu too.
