We had been to Benihana 2 times to celebrate our birthdays. Even though you make an appointment and reach 5-10 mins late they still make you wait longer. Both the times we did not get a table on time and had to wait for atleast 15 mins.
But once we are seated the service was excellant. The cooking table is a real good experience especially if it is your first time. The servers were fast and the chefs are so energetic and funny that they will create a laughter riot throughout the cooking session. The food is cooked in front of you so you know exactly what goes into your stomach.
I am a vegetarian so I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND USING DIFFERENT SPATULAS FOR VEGETARIANS which is not the case. Just one used for anything and everything from prawns to tofus.
My husband is a lover of the chicken fried rice which he says is a must try.
Quantify is very very minimal for the meal portions so be prepared for a huge bill.
The meal comes with a complimentary ice cream and a birthday song sung by all the servers.
Overall a good experience and a must try place but with a lot of flaws.
