Benihana must have a continuity of service across its portfolio of locations, forget everything, receive the wrong order, don’t get your drinks until an hour into the service, no forks, no water despite asking several times. In the last year we have tried Benihana in Atlanta, Las Vegas and Key West, all three have been an identical experience which is really unfortunate. Needless to say this is our last visit to this franchise.

Chef Pete was fantastic! Our waiter George was good at first but then seemed to have an issue with his other table so seemed to have spent a lot of time with them over their bill so it took awhile for us to get more drinks after. Honestly I don’t know why the manager didn’t handle it with the other table then. Overall we had a good time, kids enjoyed it, other people at our table were great too.

Chef did not do tricks while cooking. Didn’t even do a fire. Couldn’t hear him he was so scared. Girl who was waitress could care less about us. Constantly flagging her down for drinks. Food was just ehh, nothing special. Really disappointing experience Overall.
