Benihana

The cooks are losing their flare. We had a cook with no emotion. They seems to be tired of cooking. 10 years ago the cooks were happy and funny. Now days they just do the bare minimum just to get a paycheck. Food was ok the cook needs to be a bit more neat. Had food all over the place.

Food and chef was great. Service wasn’t good. We just received our Habatchi steak, and we were asked what favor of free ice cream would we like. The ice cream and check came out within minutes. We were still eating our steak and cocktails, while watching our ice cream melt when the server brought us Togo boxes and asked for our payment. I would have understood the rush if they were busy, but there were still ten grills completely empty.

My first visit, being introduced to Benihana by colleagues. We went at lunchtime and it was very quiet. The food is amazing, and the experience is great fun! I had calamari with the lunch duet and it was the best I’d ever tasted!
