I had a reservation & my daughter & I were seated within five minutes of our arrival.
I do not remember the names of our server & chef but they were both excellent & served up all the delicious food in a timely manner.
Our meals were cooked to perfection. We had a chef who was careful to oblige the needs of everyone at our table.
i love it here ... this is one of my fav restaurants
Our server was Sophie and our chef was Dustin. He was the best chef we have ever had at Benihana. Great sense of humor and made us all laugh at the table. Sophie did an amazing job with taking care of us as well. Our drinks never got empty. The whole experience was fantastic. One of most enjoyable experiences at Benihana.
Wonderful evening celebrating my son’s 20th birthday. Chef and waiter were both exemplary.
We celebrated my son’s 18th birthday. Benihana always has consistently delicious food and friendly staff. A family favorite for special occasions.
Great chef Riley X. Yummy chicken fried rice and sushi-salmon boat.
Happy to be inside restaurant again.
Social distancing provided between unrelated family units.
We had a great birthday lunch, best food and service. Thanks
My son loved this place.
My compliments to the chef that cooked my food that Night, performance was amazing, His jokes were on point and funny and is mui chingon.
It took over an hour just from sitting down to the chef coming out to prepare the food... they also sat us a awfully close to another group. It did not seem Covid safe. And this location doesn’t have yum yum sauce either which was very disappointing
staff are all accomodating and ensure customers feel safe and secure. awesome hibachi techniques by the chef kept us entertained the entire time! reservation experience is very great!
Amazing service
Was a good night. Good food, service and drinks.
I would recommend Benihana Anaheim.
Had a birthday and celebrated late after 9pm, servers were switching constantly, they missed our birthday note, waited near 1.5 hours for a chef. Did not do the whole experience and was rushed due to closing time. Waited long periods for drinks and appetizers from the back kitchen as well
Our booking was at 6:30pm. We were seated at 7pm. The chef was at our table at 8pm. The other tables were served first before us even tho we were there earlier than them. Food wise is on the salty side but good. They said they didn’t have enough chef to accommodate their guests.
The experience is what you go for for sure, the food was honestly pretty disappointing. We added scallops to our meal and got extremely small over cooked scallops. Also the chicken said spicy and definitely wasn't. Our server was very nice, however was pretty absent. For the price I'd probably go elsewhere.
I go here every birthday and it’s always great.
The waitress that we had at first was rude to our children my kids had a 2 pm reservation and we had to get a 2 :15 because our party was big well she kept attending us first I told her that the kids table was first and she ignored me then she started to pass out our drinks first and her breast dropped our of her uniform and I told her to that I didn’t want her to sever my boy’s like that she mumbled something and left the sent of a better waiter who was on point.
My family loves this place. Service is always great, more than enough food and the price is as good or better than any other of its kind.
So happy to see Benihana back open for indoor dining. Same great tasting food in an entertaining environment. We are ready to go again!
The restaurant only had 3 chefs cooking for 11 tables on a Friday night.Reservations were at 9pm our cook didn’t get to our table till 10:20pm and after when we ask for a bag to take our left over our server told us they didn’t have big enough bags for those trays most disrespectful thing I ever heard from a place will never go back even if they would give me a free year of food for free save your time go elsewhere
Where do I start, benihana Anaheim is mine and my boyfriends FAVORITE location. We use to go monthly. Today was just so disappointing. The food was not as good as usual. My rice was undercooked, the shrimp had an odd taste, veggies weren’t seasoned as well as it usually is. I hate to leave a bad review but for spending $140 I am BEYOND disappointed.
Not happy. Benihana advertised lunch special but when we got there they charged us dinner menu prices (150 vs $50)!!
Bait and switch at this location. Need OpenTable to file a complaint and get me refund.
Food was amazing as always! Thank you masaru and team.
Food was good but found the sauce for meat/chicken to be very watered down on this visit. Also miss the Birthday singing and free photo. Prices went up but food quality or QUANTITY didn’t change
We were so happy to get back inside Benihanas restaurant. It was our granddaughter’s 6th birthday, and this is her favorite restaurant. She has severe food allergies, and the chef always cooks her food safely without cross contamination.
Our server, Joanna, is the best we have ever had. This is the 2nd time Joanna was our server. She is excellent. Our drinks are always full, and her timing for getting our starters, soups, salads, desserts is perfect. Joanna is also very careful with serving our granddaughter, and making sure that the foods she is allergic to are kept away from her. Her personality is very upbeat and sweet, and we are grateful for her wonderful service. Thank You Joanna.

I was really disappointed in our visit. We've been there before COVID and it was really good before. They just opened for inside dining so we decided to check it out. When we got to our teppanyaki table, it was filthy. Still food from last session that was on the stove. I had to ask if they were going to clean and sanitize it before they served us.
When we got our beef gyoza appetizer is was not hot. It was lukewarm. Didn't seem like it was cooked to order. And the soup was also lukewarm, not at all hot.
Very disappointed in the overall visit.
Enjoyed our lunch, our chef Dustin made it very fun and entertaining! Very sweet humble guy.
Wasn’t bad coinciding COVID screwing everything up
Great family experience great sushi excellent tasting food .
Loved our experience except the wait time and we had reservations but overall a good experience since we got a deduction on the bill for it. Loved our waitress and they chef stepped up since he wasn’t initially our intended chef but it all worked out. Food was great, ambience was lively and the beer choice was unexpected in an awesome way! Deff will return, cheers!
Great server and wonderful cook. Customer service is not very accommodating
From sitting down, to orders taken, to service of soup & salad, to chef, to eating, to dessert ... the timing was fantastic. In our opinion, all was PERFECT! I wouldn’t change a thing.
Birthday !
It was the first time taking my three kids ages 6,4,and 2. And they loved it!
Just because
Samata was super attentive, never had to ask for refills. We had a special request and she handled it nicely. Cook was fun too.
The server did not know any knowledge about price of menu. He had to correct our receipt several times.
Our experience at Benihana - Anaheim, CA was very exciting, peaceful, entertaining and most of all delicious.
