Best Restaurants for Birthdays in Whittier

Another brunch before a Gopher football game. Once again, a terrific meal. Bloody Mary, one with vodka, one with gin, with just the right amount of spicy tomato mix. I had the eggs Benedict with short ribs and a generous amount of hash browns; my friend had a traditional breakfast with breakfast potatoes and Nueske bacon. Requested bar seats in order to watch the IU/OSU game and the Manny’s host delivered. Met a group of PSU fans who enjoyed pre game cocktails in the main dining room. worth the $$$$.

Went there with the family, and had a wonderful time. The service was wonderful and the food tasted fantastic. 

Benihana is pretty much the same as always. The restaurant is a little run down. Kinda sad. We’ve been going off and on for years. It’s been a while, 6 years I think. Food is the same. Some of it really good like the scallops. I wasn’t as crazy about the fried rice this time. Not sure what’s changed. The other 3 in our party liked it. Our chef/server was great. The other party at our table had two first-timers, ages 7 & 9 (guessing). They loved it. We took lots of food home. Basically Benihana lived up to our age old expectations.

Had one of my favorite servers, Ken A., again. It is always an extra treat when I am lucky enough to be seated in his area before a theatre show. Excellent suggestions and service each and every time! He’s super fun, too!! Thank you!!

Our waitress was exceptional! We were originally seated in a very crowded and noisy area. She moved us to a much more comfortable portion of the restaurant.
