Benihana - Houston - Downtown

I will never return to this LOCATION

Amazing and great food

Love this place! Meal costs are roughly $30 per-person during dinner time.

The best restaurant in town and cognizant of social distancing. Excellent!

Food was great service was great chef was awesome and very entertaining

My son took me to Benihana for Father's Day. We ordered the 6 course meal, with entree of filet mignon, chicken breast, and colossal shrimp. We both thoroughly enjoyed our meals. The table server and chef were very friendly, professional, and provided an excellent dining experience throughout.

my family and i went there after the aquarium, and i warned them multiple times that she was allergic to seafood and somehow she still ended up having an allergic reaction while we were there. her chest tightened up, her airway was closing and she was feeling sick. we had to rush to leave to get her to medicine.

We always like to eat there, when we're in Houston

Really good service, overall great experience for the family

No way. Never again. So much for a nice nite out. 3 of us. $317.58 after tip. No dress code. Shorts and flip flops was the typical attire. This place was one step above Panda Express. Go to Morton’s or Ruth Chris’. Same amount of money but much better experience. Never again. Never never never.

It was AMAZING! I took my girlfriend here for her birthday & it was just what we were looking for. I reserved it for 12pm and it wasn’t busy, everyone was so helpful & sweet. I loved it. Sweet energy etc.

It is in need of updating! The food was middle of the road. The staff was adequate

This is the first public dine in my husband and I did after quarantine and it did not disappoint! We did a reservation for a Friday evening but arrived an hour early (6:45) and were seated immediately with another couple on opposite ends (6 feet apart).
I highly recommend the reservation if you’re going because it was packed (entryway) as we were leaving.
I only wish our cook had some sort of container where we could’ve tipped him aside from our waitresses for his entertainment and cooking performance.
Coconut mojitos were superb and 2 for $10.70, so drink in even numbers if you’d like to take advantage of that special!

I booked reservations said it was open online and bam show up park and closed did not update website ruined my wife’s birthday dinner.

Food good and everything was great

The food was really good but the service was just ok. Our server didn’t smile and didn’t refill drinks. I notated on the reservation a birthday and told the server and the hibachi chef and no one acknowledged it at all. The manager greeted every table except ours. But like I said, good food.

Great service and great atmosphere. If you are looking for a good time and a night out, this is the place

Went to celebrate a 19th birthday. I commend Benihana for opening and getting back to business, but it was mediocre at best. Food was decent, but experience with the chef was not good. It appeared like he didn’t want to be there, and was very disinterested in putting on any show. He had made a bit too much fried rice, and rather than giving each guest a little extra, he threw it away! Same for a chicken dish that was entered into the system incorrectly. Rather than salvage edible food, he just threw it away. I couldn’t believe the waste- we didn’t need it but at least save it for the staff or someone hungry.

Span was our chef and was OUTSTANDING! He made the appropriate conversation with us and made us feel at ease throughout the entire dinner. Server was very helpful and saved us several dollars by recommending the best meal options.
Servers are placed in a tough spot, on large party had their children running around the restaurant and belittled the staff when they asked the parents to have their children not run in the restaurant. It made for a miserable experience for most of the patrons. However, the staff was helpful as much as they could be give the circumstances.

I had a reservation got seated all most 15 mins after it and I arrived 20 mins prior to it. Took 32 mins for cook to come to table very slow service

Loved it!! I am was out chief and everything was wonderful

My husband and I went for a date night. We always enjoy the food and atmosphere.

Chef Edgar was very entertaining and food was awesome.

The staff were friendly and accommodating. It was less lively than I anticipated, considering we were there on a Saturday night. We had a great time though.
