    We had a reservation and got seated right away. They took us upstairs to the hibachi. The ceilings are low, poor ventilation, it was so loud and they pack you in like sardines. We got one roll, 3 hibachi, and 3 drinks for $270. We chose this restaurant for the Hibach experience, and the chef didn't do anything but cook the food in front of us and didn't put on a show.

    El mesero fue grosero, ni siquiera habíamos terminado ordenar cuando nos entregó la cuenta. La comida está aceptable.

    It was good! Waited almost one hour after reservation to get seated and didn’t get the zucchini toss or sake you’re used to for the experience.

    There was a lack of showmanship. But the show is the reason to go to a Benihana.

    They overbooked reservations on Christmas Day. As a result, we had to wait 45 minutes after our scheduled reservation to be seated.
