Our chef's name was Hiro and I can not say enough good things about him. He has been there for 14 years and it shows. He knows exactly when to put on a show and also when it's time to let us enjoy our food and step back for a little and just cook. He was friendly, funny, talented, and all around made our celebration for my moms birthday an incredible and laughter filled experience. I wish I could have handed him a 100$ but I didn't have it on me. If a manager or anyone from Benihana sees this, please give him praise and let him know he made someone's night because he works very very hard.
