   We've been going to Benihana for more than 16 years to celebrate special occasions. We started going as a couple, then as husband and wife, and now we go as a family of 4. Food is always great and service is too. Prices have gone up a lot in the last 2-3 years, and we understand that's true for a lot of restaurants. However, the $30 offered for a bday certificate has remained the same. I feel they should increase this amount for guests since Benihana has increased their prices. They should offer guests $45.

   Overall it was good, front staff needs to have better welcoming manners. Very dull and unwelcoming.

   The food was good. The pricing is a bit high but overall, the food quality was good. They also charge the full amount for fried rice. 7.00 for chicken fried rice or 6.00 for vegetable fried rice if you want that instead of regular white rice.

    We were sat and drink orders out in by 6:30pm, at 7:10pm we had to ask where our drinks were at. Once everything was cooked, we had to ask where our children’s corn was at for their kids meal. It is pretty sad when a child is crying because they are thirsty and not one staff member offered to help get our drinks and we still had to ask where the drinks were.
