    I haven’t been to Benihana in years and I’m sooo glad I popped in with my girls! The drinks, the food and customer service was great! The sushi was fresh and the chef prepared our meals to perfection! I don’t think I’ll ever get enough of the fire and train with the onions! I’ll definitely be back and soon!
