    A fun theatrical, interactive dining experience. Simple tasty food dishes, not too much 'fussing' makes for a relaxing evening.

    Been there the first time tonight and had just a great experience at Benihana. The food is absolutely amazing and so delicious, I had the Tuna Fillet Steak and can highly recommend it! The staff is very attentive and friendly, our chef delivered a great cooking show. I will be back!

    Really good fun experience. Excellent light food. Although on its face the dishes might seem expensive, in fact they form a whole meal (and experience) which is good value given the quality.

    We had an amazing evening, our chef was charming, service faultless, food exceptional and so delicious. It was a great experience and we will certainly book again. Some reviewers have said it is expensive, but you are paying for food to be cooked in front of you and to order, so we felt is was good value compared to other dining experiences. Thank you so much to everyone at Benihana we had so much fun.
