Review summary

Benihana in Cherry Hill, NJ, offers a mixed dining experience. While "food was delicious," and "Chef Dan was excellent," frequent delays in seating and service can be frustrating. Diners appreciate the engaging chefs like "Chef Frank" and "Chef Malik." However, "service needs improvement," and cleanliness occasionally falls short.

    It was a birthday celebration and it was ok. I had a large party and was given misinformation, they need to update their staff on policies regarding seating, it seemed dark on the inside and the decor looks like it hasn’t been touch in years!! But chef Dan (I think was his name) was entertaining and cool. It was nice to see other families celebrating events!

    I do not know how this place is still in business. They are drastically understaffed, and the staff they have seem completely miserable to be there. When we could not get an acknowledgment let alone a smile out of the hostess, looked around and saw exactly two Asian employees and the tired old decor we should have walked out. Sadly, it was my mother’s 84th birthday and she doesn’t get around great so we stayed. We were seated a half hour later than our reservation, and then didn’t see a waiter for another half hour. He took so long just taking our orders that I sent my husband to the bar to get us drinks. Our hibachi “chef” is an ex waiter who obviously had no idea what he was doing. Everything was cooked one item at a time. We were all eating onions because they were the only food we had in the first hour and a half of being there. There was no “show” or interactions of any kind. Just stay away!!!!

    Dear Martin Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re sincerely sorry to hear that your visit fell so far below expectations, especially on such a special occasion. Your feedback regarding delays, service quality, and the hibachi experience is deeply concerning and will be addressed with our team immediately. This is not the level of hospitality we aim to provide. We understand your frustration and regret that we disappointed you and your family.

    Very good experience. We enjoyed the an early quiet dinner . Chief Rob was really good. He use to be one of our favorite servers so it was so good seeing him as a cook. He took his time, food was neatly cooked and well seasoned. He hit all the checks as far as the spatula flip, the heart shaped rice, the onion volcano just to name a few. We will definitely be back to request him again.

    My reservation was for 7:15pm we weren’t seated until 7:30 then the host said to give out cook 5 min to get his self together it took that man 30 mins to come out. We just sat there patiently waiting. He finically comes out at 8pm. Food was good but having to wait that long was ridiculous. We came out for my son’s 18th Birthday. I could understand if the building was busy but at the time only 3 tables we busy the rest of the building was empty. Even the Chef it was a slow day.

    We tried the Easter brunch for the first time and loved the food prepared by Chef Dallas – it was perfectly seasoned and a real standout. We'd happily come back just for her cooking. Unfortunately, other aspects need work. The floor near our table was dirty with leftover food (even large steak pieces!), suggesting a need for better cleaning between seatings. More importantly, the service was extremely slow and poorly paced. After two hours, my husband and I had finished and left, while others at our table were still waiting for their main courses like steak and chicken. This slow delivery really impacted the enjoyment of the meal. Hopefully, the service speed and cleanliness can be improved to match the quality of Chef Dallas's excellent food.
