   I had a reservation for 8:00 pm and that was disregarded; they were like it’s gonna be a 45 minute wait. They have bad table management. Once I finally got seated, it took them another 30 mins to start cooking. Finally they cook everything and we took it to go because we were tired. Total 3 hours. Also don’t sit near the walls, it is very noisy. Food was spectacular so that made up for it.

   Dear Guest, We truly apologize for the frustrating experience you had. Waiting three hours despite having an 8:00 pm reservation is unacceptable, and we regret the poor table management and delayed cooking start. We understand how exhausting this must have been, and we appreciate your patience. Your feedback about noise near the walls is also noted, and we’ll work on improving that. While we’re glad to hear you enjoyed the food, we know the overall experience didn’t meet expectations. Thank you for sharing, and we hope you’ll give us another chance to provide a smoother, more enjoyable experience.

   Waited for 45 minutes after our reservation time and then took an hour and 15 minutes to get the chef to our table. The only thing they did was give us a free appetizer card to use at our next visit. Unacceptable and poor experience.

   The restaurant is freezing cold and the server has not a single smile for you. Took a good 10 minutes to get a reserved table when the restaurant was pretty empty. Food did not taste much. Dissapointing expencive dinner.

   Our server, Anton, was great! He was super attentive and timely. It was the best service ever received at any Benihana location. We were seated at our reservation time. The food portion was generous. The chef was entertaining and cooked the food well yet efficiently.

   we waited an hour and a half past our reservation time. The lobby was packed with people and the people working there had no idea how long we would wait. It was ridiculous how long we had to wait after our reservation time. Other people just left because the wait was so long.

   We made reservation on Open Table, arrived on time to a CROWDED wait area, then waited- standing for AN HOUR AND A HALF. Had 3 teenagers with us for my daughter’s birthday and I had a broken foot (otherwise we would have left). Host area is a joke. No one is brave enough to face all the frustrated people so they keep disappearing, and when they did appear, gave everyone the same line: “you have one table ahead of you.” They are completely overbooked, corporate restaurant not caring about a quality experience. I think I saw just four hibachi chefs for the whole room (20 tables?) There is a lot of time spent trying to sell you drinks (which we were not there for) by very nice servers, constantly apologizing. Frazzled Manager also politely apologized saying Open Table system overbooks them. Not sure if they take direct reservations? Chef was understated but funny and slow-pace focused - but steak and chicken were sadly overcooked this visit. Shrimp and scallops were great. Very difficult for a chef to balance all that timing, I get it, but was not successful this visit. Salad was way overdressed, soup fine, chicken fried rice was good - not as good as last visit. Seating extremely cramped. My teenagers have liked coming here, so it gets requested for birthdays, but there are too many great, unique (and not chain) restaurants in S.F. at same price, better quality, less crowded, more personalized service, better ambiance, more comfortable…for me to consider coming back here again. Time to put my foot down. Ouch.

    We waited well over 30 minutes - we had a reservation - and couldn’t wait anymore given a concert we had that night. It was a terrible experience
