    There is no better Teppan grill, then Benihana’s! The food is always on point. The service here was OK. We were celebrating a birthday and we did not get a traditional picture. It was extremely busy for Tuesday night, but we made reservations and were seated timely. The parking for this location is horrendous.

    This is a great place to have a business or social lunch, great happy hour or dinner too! I took one of our employees to lunch there for her work anniversary. She has never been and wanted to check it out. She was so excited and happy to celebrate at such a special place. THANK YOU!

    Wonderful setting! Our serving staff was professional and caring. We were each given a post card to address and write a note on. We were told that the Farmhouse would mail it for us. We had a delicious meal. The soups and pizza were exceptional! We always return! Thank you!

    Had a wonderful experience once again. The food was delicious and prepared exactly as requested. Danny was our server and Marco the busier. Both did an exceptional job. Our food came to the table and we were able to enjoy a leisurely meal. We believe Scott is the GM. Thank you to all of you.
