    I made a reservation and got there five minutes before we were to be seated. I checked in and the house said they’re running 40 minutes behind on their reservations confirmed my number and said that we will send you a text in waiting and speaking with other people. They had been waiting there for over an hour and a half when they were told it would be also a 40 minute wait. We ended up leaving and eating at another restaurant and we never received a text.

    Showed up for 7:15 reservation and not seated until 8:30. Waited at table from 8:25 to 10 until a chef came to cook. Chef was tired and the whole experience was ruined. 4 hours to eat a meal. We will never go back

    Waited an hour for the table (with reservations) then another 30-40 minutes for our chef. The food was very salty, mostly seasoned the same. Spent $50 for steak that was so salty I couldn’t taste the meat. Spent $250 for 2 people, wasn’t very happy at all. The dress code definitely wasn’t applicable to everyone. Wasn’t happy with the chef not wearing something over his beard. Bathroom was gross, bar was dirty. Will not be back at all.

    WOW… we will never return! 6:45 reservations, not seated until 7:40. Waited FOR-EVER for a cook to finally come to our table. Food was decent. Fried rice was the best part. Service terrible on refilling drinks (because we sat there forever), clearing dishes, etc. We had fun with our table laughing about what a disaster the whole evening was but at the end of the night… it was a 4, yes 4, hour dinner from start to finish. The manager did offer 40% off all of our bills but that was miscalculated. When I questioned that, he got a MAJOR attitude. On a side note… if you look around, this restaurant is filthy. Food on the walls, dirty carpet and nasty bar. It needs deep cleaning!

    Wasn't seated until 45 minutes after our reservation. The waiting area was packed. Once seated, we didn't get a chef until another hour. Spoke to the manager, Micheal, who gave me excuses and promised to do something to compensate. He did nothing. This isn't the high- end Benihana of the past. It's for the masses, and they don't care about service because they have more business than they can accommodate.

    We have been to this location many times. This trip was the best. The chef Justin was the best cook & also the most entertaining. Loved Justin!!! Also, very nice waitress. Food was fantastic & enough for a few meals of leftovers.
