   Our server brought our soup, salad and drinks quickly. Then we waited for over an hour for our 'chef' to arrive and start the main course. He said we were his last group and main goal seemed to be to finish with us and go home For our 5 course meal, the shrimp appetizer was 2 shrimp. The vegetables were sliced onions. And we never got any or were offered any green tea. Basically it was rice and meat. The chef had asked if there were any birthdays and we told him yes.. So, when he left without any celebration, i asked and they sent the server back with someone to sing happy birthday. It was not with tambourines and fancy fanfare that we had seen chefs do earlier. It was sad and extremely disappointing as i believe you pay for the experience. The past joy of going to Benihana's for a celebration is gone on so many levels. Side note - the interior is tired and in desperate need of a remodel. That's it for us, we won't be going back...

   Great food and atmosphere, parking is a bit difficult and they do charge $8 for valet. We did wait an hour after making a reservation which was irritating but the service was still top notch.

   Made a 7pm reservation. Wasn’t seated till 8:30. Didn’t eat till 9:30. Show was below average. Absolutely no interaction with guests. Just watched a man cook food for double the price. Don’t recommend.

   Our chef was funny and made us a delicious dinner. He made up for very slow service. This is the first time Benihana dissappoints due to the service. It took over 30mins between soup & salad for our chef to be available. I had to ask Manager several times for the status. Plan on being very patient when going to MV Benihana’s.

   Tiffany was absolutely amazing. I had accidentally booked the bar for our reservation thinking it was the teppanyaki. She made my birthday dinner. I’ve chosen Benihana for my birthday dinner for the last 4 years and the experience gets better. Food is always delicious.

   Experience is good once the chef arrives.. key words: once the chef arrives. The 1.5 hours prior to that after you showed up on time for your rsvp you are on your own. This restaurant used to run on time, now any visit takes 3-3.5 hours if you are lucky (waiting 50% of the time and enjoying the other 50% of the time). I miss the old version of this Benihana.

    Extremely poor experience. Our reservation was for 6:45 and we weren’t seated until 7:15. We arrived on time- - 6:40. Once seated, they did not start our grill experience until 8:45. Yes, two hours after our reservation time, dinner was just getting started. Some staff were apologetic, the majority were not. It was told to us they had 4 workers who didn’t show up for there shift and they were calling people in. We were on a family vacation and almost decided to leave at the 2 hour point when dinner hadn’t even started. Would highly not recommend.
