Reviews for Benihana in Edison, NJ
I have never been to a hibachi before, and this was a fantastic experience to have happen. From the very beginning, our server... Mike was very considerate and patient with our party of seven people. From always offering to help at what seemed perfecttiming, to making sure there was never a time without a smile at our table. The food was also incredibly well done by the chef,who?s name I unfortunately did not get. I do not particularly like some food that was given to me on a general basis, and Istill cleaned my plate due to how well it was cooked. 10/10 would come back again!! Read more
This was my first time ever eating at Benihana....and it was fantastic!! The food/variety is great, service is friendly and... efficient and the hibachi chef was incredible (i asked her and there's a lot of training required to achieve those skills) Read more
Waited half hour at our table before someone came to take our order. After that we had to wait another thirty minutes for the... chef to come out. We came with a three year old and we ordered chicken nuggets for her. Her food came out after everyone at thetable ate. We had to feed her from our food. Tried cancelling her order but couldn?t Will never come back here. Worseexperience ever. Read more
My daughter never been at the restaurant. My wife setup a party of 10 to celebrate my daughter's birthday last week. 8 people... showed up and we was waiting for remaining 2 people to arrive. I asked the manager can the 8 people that arrived could beseated. She said no we don't seat customers until all the party has arrived. This is totally ridiculous!! The 2 remaining peoplearrived and i asked the manager can we be seated now. By the way we did make reservations. The manager said the table is notready. The manager said we will call you when table is ready. This manager was totally horrible!! I watched the worker's seating other customers. We was ready but manager said table was not ready. They was keeping track of customers on smallnotebook square pieces of paper. Excuse me please update your system!! The place was crowded but we did havereservations!! After 50 minutes of waiting we finally left to go another restaurant. Guess what After we leave They finally callto say the table is ready. The location is the worst!! Period!! Read more
Unique culiniary experience . Live hotplate grilling at your table . Their live flame cooking is an experience to be had . Most... people can be seen taking videos at their tables to cherish the experience . Helpful staff and very experienced and trainedcooks working live at your table . Sake based drinks is a nice change from routine alcohols . Worth a visit and repeat visits totry different dishes . Not very heavy on pocket also. The table capacity is 8 and you have to share with other groups . But thisdid not affect the service or eating experience . Read more
We had a birthday dinner for ten people and it was an amazing experience. We had two people with allergies/specific dietary... needs and our chef, Arturo, was amazingly accommodating. He was extremely entertaining and everyone at our table enjoyedourselves. Read more
3.5 stars in my opinion. I got scallops for my hibachi dinner and they were overcooked. The rest of my dinner was really good... though. I do feel it's a tad expensive and if you upgrade from the white rice to fried they charge an additional 5 dollars. Ifyou're gonna sit in the hibachi area during peak hours I recommend making a reservation if possible. Read more
What an experience! I've never had a hibachi experience, and I've got to say it is really engaging and interesting. Each table... sits about 8 people, our party was 3 people so we joined with two other couples around the cooking station. Everyone has a frontstage view of the cooking area as your are placed around it, and the table is assigned a personal chef that makes your choice ofmeal right in front of you! We had a very fun and friendly chef that would ask us exactly how we wanted our meal cooked beforeactually doing so. The night was filled with yummy food, laughter, and tricks! We will definitely be back! Read more
