    Had a very good time the chef was funny and did a few of the tricks for the young people at the table. The food was delicious.

    Crowded, salty, chefs bumping into each other. Save your time and money. Just before you enter, hang a left and go down stairs to the blue iguana! Wish we would’ve, probably been much more efficient and enjoyable. Good Luck!!!

    Family of 5- celebrated a 17yr old bday. Good time had by all. Our chefs energy and engagement level was about 65% - better chef than entertainer. Waitress service level was about 60% - she was a bit stressed but did get our tables order correctly and returned every 20 mins for check ins. It felt more robotic than individualized experience. Good drinks, and quality food. Price: $$$$ average: $50 a plate. Parking available in a garage next to restaurant - Benihana does validated! Don't forget to bring in parking pass! Entry to restaurant is tucked away... Look for red symbol on black sign. We will return for more celebrations.

    Great menu and delicious food with very attentive service. It's good value for money and whilst the ambience is ok, i thought that the restaurant looked tired and was in need of a refresh.
