Pretty decent. The food was good - I had the eel and my girlfriend had a steak dish. Not all Teppanyaki chefs are created equal tho - the guy at the other table was far more entertaining than the chef we had. That's too bad since the chef is part of what you pay for at a place like this. more

It's just the typical Americanized Teppanyaki with all those stupid tricks, onion towers, throwing shrimps around, ... etc. No way this can be compared to the Teppanyaki in Japan or other parts of Asia. Stupid as it is, this kind of Teppanyaki is the only Teppanyaki you get here. And Benihana is actually better than some other American Teppanyaki restaurant.... more
