What People Are Saying About Benihana
Featured Review

In Short – Benihana started out as a tiny four-table restaurant in New York City's theater district before becoming an international chain. Diners sit around large tables where chefs ostentatiously chop, slice, stir-fry and grill. Entree options are simple--shrimp, chicken, steak and scallops--and preparation is uniform. Every entree comes with a similar stock of sides: rice, onion soup, shrimp appetizer, iceberg lettuce drizzled with dressing, sauteed vegetables and green tea.

THE WORST BENIHANA I'VE EVER BEEN TO
by Yamaguchi at Citysearch
This is the worst Benihana I've ever been to. The food was fine as usual. The reservation was very backed up. I was waiting for almost an hour ,even with the reservation. The lady manager was VERY POOR-MANNERED. She walked into me and walked away without apologizing. Again she knocked my water glass over me when coming to the table trying to sell something. No smile!
- Pros: Chef did the great job!!!
- Cons: Manner of staff
GREAT FOOD
by TENKIEP at Citysearch
The food was great! Everything was fresh and prepared just right. The chefs are also pretty trendy when preparing the food. I really enjoyed the cusisine and the atmosphere. The Banana Martinis were perfect! KUDOS!
Ok Sushi but GREAT Food.
by Reikes at Citysearch
While the sushi here is not the worlds best, their other Japanese fair is among the best. Food is not the only reasion to come, an entertaining dining experence is sure to make you happy and keep you coming back. Try the Yakisoba for lunch or dinner.
