   We celebrated my birthday, just me and my BFF we had the best hibachi chef by the name of Ray. He was totally awesome. He had amazing and fun tricks at the grill. He served us delicious chicken, beef, shrimp, veggies and fried rice! The food was amazingly delicious! He was so kind and so funny! He was very personable and made my birthday lunch so special! Thank you, Chef Ray! Our server was amazing. He had great hair and he kept filling my cup with green tea. He even served us really tasty chocolate and vanilla ice cream to me and my bestie for my birthday! And he even sang Happy Birthday to me along with my best friend! By the way, the server with the great hair! I didn’t get his name but he reminded me of Jimmy McNichol from da 70’s-80’s 😘…thank you guys so much and the manager came out to greet us…she was so such a lovely lady named Emily. I felt so blessed to be there this afternoon with my beautiful bestest friend in the whole wide world! And even the two gentlemen at the front door that greeted us were so very kind. Everybody had smiles on their face. It was like I walked into heaven. Thank you all again so very much for today!

   Excellent location for celebration lunch or dinner especially with kids. Note the many special deals including the lunch boat meals available Monday through Friday. If you are not interested in the entertainment provided by the chefs at your table, the current $39 five course meal is a great value. Reservations highly recommended.

   We had Trevor as our cook and he was super energetic, fun and really made us have a good time for my daughters 16th birthday. We werw hoping we didn't get someone who would just cook and leave, we wanted someone who would make us laugh and interact with our party. Trevor was awesome!

   Had a 7:00 reservation, showed up at 6:55. Told they are a bit behind and can sit us in 45 minutes? Kind of defeats the purpose of open table or making a reservation.

   We had a very long wait at the table before a chef could serve us. They did bring a couple complimentary items to fill the gap but the kitchen is not organized at all. The chef was very nice. The food was good. The restaurant definitely needs an update. Just paint touch ups would do wonders so it doesn’t look so run down.

   We waited seated over 1 hr past our reservation time for a chef to come to our table. We had 3 kids with us and it took 3 1/2 hrs to finish cooking our meal and leaving the restaurant. Very disappointing!

   Had 7pm reservation Was told we would be seated in 15 minutes or short time after. Was not seated til 8 And seems like they are short staffed as the table Next to us that seated after us received a chef immediately and we waited another hour before our chef arrived Ordered filet for most of our group and some shrimp. Neither were good quality and didn’t match the value Would not return to this location

    We celebrated my mother’s birthday at Benihana recently, and I can say with complete sincerity that it was one of the most memorable, joyful, and heartwarming dining experiences we’ve ever had—and that is entirely thanks to our chef, Zain. From the moment he walked up to the hibachi, Zain radiated warmth, charisma, and an infectious energy that immediately put a smile on all of our faces. You could tell from the start that this wasn’t just a job for him—he genuinely loves what he does, and it shows in every flip of the spatula, every sizzling burst of steam, and every perfectly timed joke. He didn’t just cook our food—he performed it, and we were lucky enough to be his audience. Zain went above and beyond to make my mom feel celebrated and special. He asked questions, listened intently, made her laugh, and treated her birthday like it was the most important day in the world. It felt like a private party—and he was both the chef and the star entertainer. On top of the entertainment, the food was absolutely delicious. Everything was cooked to perfection—the steak tender, the shrimp bursting with flavor, and the vegetables seasoned just right. But it’s not just the taste we’ll remember—it’s the experience Zain crafted around that meal that left a lasting impression on every one of us. It’s rare to find someone who can turn a dinner into a cherished memory. Zain did that for our family, and we are so deeply grateful. If you're ever dining at Benihana and Zain is your chef, consider yourself incredibly lucky—you’re in for an unforgettable time. Benihana, please recognize and celebrate Zain for his incredible talent, hospitality, and genuine care. He’s a gem, and because of him, we’ll be talking about this night for years to come. Thank you, Zain, for making my mom’s birthday so very special.
