My family brought me to the Columbus, Ohio Benihana for my birthday on October 22, 2022 and it was wonderful! Our chef was Jon... and our waitress was Emily, both phenomenal!!! The only reason that I didn't give 5 stars was because there was butter andonions on the wall. YIKES! However, Jon actually cleaned it before began cooking. We couldn't have gotten a better team.

We went during lunch. Food was good overall. We had shrimp tempura sushi and beef julienne and chicken hibachi. The sushi was... solid but not very much shrimp. Service was good as well. Second time at this location and it’s been good both times. Read more
I came in for lunch on a saturday afternoon to kill time while I waited for the mall stores to open up. I ordered some sushi... rolls and a beer. The bartender named Jennifer was VERY nice to me and super cool. She has awesome vibes. She is a realsweetheart and is great at her job. She is personable and caring and has a big warm heart. I had a pleasant experience diningthere and chatting with her! She was very kind to me, has a great attitude and sense of humor. She recommended a really goodbeer to me I enjoyed it (: I let her pick one for me that Ive never tried before and she did a good job finding something Iwould like. Thank you Jennifer! Read more

Upscale, modern, and traditional Japanese steakhouse. You get to enjoy a cooking show performed by your chef of your selected... platters. Great food with great service. Parking walking distance from the restaurant. Read more
Our party arrived at 7:40 for an 8pm reservation. We were seated about 8:10. We sat there until about 8:30 until a hostess came... and stated our sever was busy and took our drink orders. While waiting for our drinks I looked over near the bar and saw whatwould be our server take off her shoe and scratch her foot. She then disappeared then came and too our order. Our chef came tothe table and we could tell he was new. He tried to do a couple tricks with the spatula but was still learning. He cooked ourfood poorly, the shrimp was either raw or over cooked. My wife’s steak was not cut and was strung together, between cookingdifferent courses he would scrape the griddle and then end up mixing some of the scrapings into the next course. After seeingthe server remove her shoe and scratch her foot for the second time I told a manager who apologized. After the meal which wentmostly uneaten everyone at the table wanted to speak to the manager. The manager was kind and listened to out complaints andgave a 50% off discount. After leaving I realized that I still paid $75 for 2 meals that went uneaten. Maybe I should have askedfor more off I don’t know, I’m just disappointed. Also, from the time we sat down until we left took just under 2 hours! Read more
