    Waitress Erin and Chef Jesse are a dynamic duo who made our dinner experience at Benihana the best we’ve ever had! Erin was so attentive to us all, even on one of the busiest days of the year, Valentine's Day. Chef Jesse was a great entertainer, and his food was delicious! This was the first time my kiddo had no leftovers. We had the best time ever, and the food was terrific! Thank you, Erin and Jesse; you guys are the best!

    This qualifies as a neighborhood find for us and we are luck to have it. The sushi is wonderful and the service is great. I would describe their menu as delicate; focusing on the wonderful taste of the fish and avoiding heavy sauces. The sauces are excellent, just applied sparingly but sufficiently. Highly recommend.
