It's been at least 5 years since we ate at this restaurant and I can't believe how run down this place has gotten. We normally go to another Japaneese Restaurant in the area but this one had available space for a last minute reservation on Mothers Day. The interior looks like it needs a good scrubbing. There was not a... More

Chicken, steak, shrimp and many other combinations of entrees artfully prepared on a grill -- right before your eyes...Absolutely delicious, served with rice, soup and salad. A wonderful place to meet up with your family and/or friends for a great tasting meal out. Give the cook a night off...fo to Benihana at Tri County.

I have visited the downtown Cincinnati several times for lunch until it closed recently, so I thought I would try the one in Tri County for lunch one day. It was nothing like the perviously mentioned location. It appeared dirty and the place was dead. . There were little flies flying around, and the grill seemed really greasy like it... More

Every time I return to Cincinnati, I go to Benihana at Tri County. I get three orders of fried rice because it is wonderful and makes good take home. I also order the Chateaubriand. It is almost impossible to get an excellent steak but this is right there. After many visits you will have your favorite chef and he will... More

It took forever and we sat and waited forever for the chef to show up to cook. It took so long my 6 year old fell asleep and didn't wake up the entire night no matter how much noise they made. Most of the food wasn't special, minimal flavor. My tuna was cooked well but the flavor was missing, although... More

I went to Benihana with my family for a birthday celebration. Upon arrival we were told that there would be a 45 minute wait for a table. This turned out to be a 80 minute wait. The waiter forgot our appetizer and we had to remind him. Our server did not serve the green hot tea that was a guaranteed... More

You sit around a hot table while the chef entertains and cooks food for you. It is a great place for birthdays and get-togethers with friends, family and co-workers. The food is delicious and the cook will fix it according to your specifications. Prices are reasonable during lunch hours a bit expensive for dinner. Some of the cooks entertain, tell... More

We were sat a table with three other couples, two of which were also celebratring their anniversaries. The waitress put those silly Benihana hats on all of us celebrating. It was fun though cause most all of us had them on.... More

Went for happy hour sushi and beers. The sushi took nearly 30 minutes to come out from the kitchen. I am always leary if I cannot see the sushi being prepared. The nigiri pieces had too much rice and the fish was warm. The rolls were good and good size. The atmosphere is OK, better than the downtown Cincinnati location... More
