    Hubby really loves the Hibachi Salmon with avocado tartar sauce. It comes with sauteed shiitake mushrooms and asparagus. Served with udon noodles. Always get the chicken fried rice...yum!

    Their happy hour has decent prices for hand rolls, sushi rolls, and apps. Some of the fish is not always as fresh as it is normally. I also enjoy their fried rice with chicken.

    Lunch dining room is comfortable with good service. Food was good and you get a lot for lunch. Bit pricey for lunch at about $13 but it is Benihana after all.

    I went for lunch and the food was delicious. I also enjoyed the included show. The ambiance reminded me of being in a cave (dark with stone walls).

    Pretty much the same as any other Benihana. Just make sure you have a reservation or you could be waiting...a very long time.

    The show and food has not changed in 30 years. Seemed to expensive for what it was. Kids loved the show and the food was good
