    Was disappointed when we went here for my birthday and nothing was even done by the chef. It was mentioned on our reservation and during the service. There wasn’t much of a “show” the chef barely spoke the whole service. The food was mediocre for the price and my husband had part of the shell of the shrimp poke him in the mouth. The shrimps weren’t deveined properly either. Definitely a let down.

    We waited quite a long time for a waitress. There was another couple at our table, along with our party of five. When the waitress finally came out, she said no one told her we were there. Okay, no problem. But, her service was not good. The chef was clearly inexperienced and really not able to put on the "show" that the prices apparently justify. We had 2 people order gluten free (which we've done in the past, no problem. They make those in the back so there are no cross contamination issues). For whatever reason (maybe they were short staffed and didn't have a chef in the back), the chef made those on the griddle with everyone else's. That may have been what threw him off. But, it took much longer than usual to get the food prepared and it was just not as good as usual. He made quite a show of putting obnoxious amounts of butter on the food and overall, it just wasn't as good as has been the past. So, no real "show" to speak of and meh food. We could have dealt with all of this but the kicker was the waitress who was clearly dishonest. She brought out the machine to do the charge card and tried to have the bill paid without showing us the receipt (which had some errors. One item was supposed to be taken off because they never brought it. One person ordered 1 wine by name but she charged for a more expensive one). She also included an 18% gratuity and stated that that was for the service from the bar and covered the chef but did NOT include her and kept pushing us to add more to give her a tip. We've dined here before and they never had the gratuity on the bill already. She did the same thing to the couple who were at our table (and they also thought it was weird and had not been done before so it wasn't because we were a "large" party of 5). She was clearly trying to get more tip and was extremely obnoxious about it. Frankly, the food at Benihana is really overpriced (you're paying for a "show" which we did not get). We will not be returning.
