| - I haven't been to a Benihana since I was, I don't know, seven years old, so when my husband offered to take me I jumped on the chance. We made a 6:30 pm reservation.
The night got off to a somewhat rocky start because by 7:15 the chef was still not at our table. We were worried because we had a show to make at the Mirage in a couple of hours, so we advised a waitress of our show time. The manager came over to confirm our show time and they were very kind and accommodating, however, I don't think the chef actually showed up until 7:20 or so. So take note, it's probably best to let them know if you have somewhere to be when you call to make your reservation.
The food was really great, if inauthentic. I had the filet mignon, which was tender and flavorful. My husband had Rocky's Choice (chicken and steak), whichw as also good, but the chicken is nothing special so if we ever go again I think he'll probably stick with the steak.
Our chef was very friendly and I have no com;plaints about the service. The restaurant itself is beautiful, too.
