Benihana - Mall of America, MN

Cook & server were fantastic for birthday celebration.

Horrible server, but had a great chef. A lot has changed from how things used to be.

Delicious as always. Friendly cook and waitress. A go to place for any occasion.

I took my kids on a outing we sat at the grill. The chef was great & funny my four year old loved his presentation. The food was a little too salty though.

First time ever at the restaurant and the environment and the vibe was very good and I would definitely go there and eat again in the near future

Wonderful service. Amazing food. Great entertainment.

Food was great as to be expected at a Benihana, but service that day left something to be desired. Our server alone verified our food and drink order at least three times, and still delivered one of our drinks to another party at the table. We had no reason to think they hadn’t also ordered that particular drink, so we waited for ours to arrive. About half an hour later the other party asked us if we were waiting on a drink, because they had ordered a lemonade not the mojito they were given. We caught our server and let him know, and it was still another 10 minutes before that drink arrived. I had taken a friend out for birthday lunch and we had been planning to have a few drinks at Benihana with lunch, but because of the service we just had the one each and went somewhere else to have cocktails after lunch was through.

Good chef but food tasted a bit peppery, probably he should ease up on the black pepper. Server was good and refilled drinks. Food still was tasty minus the peppery flavor. Will come back again it was a fun experience. First time doing hibachi lunch at this place.

We went for my daughters 16th bday with all her friends (the moms sat at another table) and they forgot to bring the appetizers to the table and just said oops we forgot. And she was supposed to get ice cream for her bday and didn’t. For the high price of this restaurant, I would have expected much more. Not impressed!!

Had amazing service and a great chief! Very clean, safe, and no wait.

We enjoyed ourself and everyone was nice. The food was great

Awesome place to splurge on Fat Tuesday! They were very busy but the service was still great. We always love the show and how it gives us time to chat while eating the six course dinner.

Service was good. Thought it was a little expensive and not really flexible with the menu items, had to add on instead of substitute. Servers were friendly and the hibachi chef was fun!!

great food, great service!!

Awesome food! Service was outstanding!!

Benihana was really good good and nice to be able to take a walk in the MOA after.

I brought my 17 year old son and we enjoyed lunch at Benihana. Our chef was funny and entertaining and our server was very prompt and friendly. The whole experience, and this is an eating experience, was great!

Valentines day

Very respectful and the food was amazing! Will go again.

Benihana had all the safety measures in place for COVID (distancing, masks & sanitizing).
And we had a great time. The hostess accommodated a slight change in our reservation time easily and seated us when we wanted to eat.
The server was quick, efficient and freindly. She was able to effortlessly help a few special requests at our table.
The chef was talented and gave a great show as well as good food. All the orders were correct and served quickly.
We had a great day.

We received wonderful service from our server and our chef was very entertaining. They was another twosome at our table and we were properly six feet apart. Thank you for making my husband’s birthday special.

Is nice place but ned more show went the guy Cooke for service

The waiter and the cook was the best I haver ever had when dining out.

Our Chef was Amazing and the waitress was so kind! Thank you our daughter enjoyed her birthday dinner so much!!!

Very clean and nice and we will be back
Thank you

The food is fantastic! My fillet was prepared perfectly as was all the seafood as well.
The service was excellent and sitting at the grill was fabulous!! We will be back!

Exceptional food and a fun server and chef. Really enjoyed it and felt safe and secure fir a small 70th birthday celebration lunch at MIA location!

Our server and chef were terrific.

I really did not like this reservation to say the least. We were treated very poorly in my opinion. It was my wife's birthday we wernt offered the ice cream. There was more stuff also but it would be to much to list.

Great service

Food was excellent. Server was very sweet but took awhile to clear plates (salad and soup bowls were piled up as we were being served our main course) and had to find waiter to get drinks refilled.

Our server made us feel like we were inconveniencing him by just being there. Not friendly and we Felt very rushed to get out of there.

Our cook was fantastic and is the reason we enjoyed ourselves.

The food was absolutely tasteless and no one came back to refill water or drinks

Great Service even though I was late by a couple minutes just before closing they still managed to serve my food and not cancel my reservation and for that I appreciate the service and the staff.

Getting quite pricey. If it weren't my wife's birthday we would go somewhere else

We checked in and made a reservation for 4 people. The manager said "2 people". I made it for 4 people and even had a screenshot of the reservation. The manager said ok we can squeeze in 2 more. I don't know if maybe she got me confused with another person. She probably didn't listen to me correctly. Overall we all got seated which is what matters.

Please do not put the zucchini cut up with the onions some people do not like onions mixed up with zucchini

My reservation of 4 people had to wait to be seated and then had to wait to get drinks. Our waitress struggled. She spilled all the drinks just before putting the tray on the table and so we had to wait even longer to get the drinks. She was friendly, but we knew she was having a difficult time. She was unsure of one of the items my friend order from the menu and had to ask her multiple times. I also had to ask multiple times for my non alcoholic drink. I had to ask multiple times for a straw. I had to ask multiple times for a to-go container.
The cook was great. He was entertaining and friendly.

Absolutely perfect.... as always.

Was great food staff well worth it going back I recommend this place
